The Miracle Method is known as one of the largest bath and kitchen refinishing companies in the US, according to their official website.

The company currently has around 150 franchises all around the US, all of them being specialized in repairing and/or restoring all types of tubs, countertops, and ceramic tiles.

How much does Miracle Method cost?

The average cost of the Miracle Method services falls between $650 and $1,500 depending on factors such as your needs, your location, and so on.

You won’t find exact prices on the official Miracle Method website. Instead, they argue that you can save up to 75% of the average full bathtub replacement job cost, which is usually around $3,500 when you take into account the needed supplies and labor.

According to one of their blog posts, Miracle Method usually costs between $1,000 and $1,500 for both tub and tile surround refurbishing, while restoring a tub shouldn’t cost more than $600 to $750. Keep in mind that this blog post is older, but it still states that the prices you will find at this company are 30% to 50% cheaper than the typical bathtub liner system.

Although the official website wasn’t of much help during our research, the internet is full of people that were willing to share the prices they were quoted, and we made a list of some of the common ones in the table below.

While you budget for this type of project, keep in mind that the cost will also depend on the contractor you choose to work with, the scope of the job, as well as level of complexity of the job.

A member talked about their experience with Miracle Method in a DSLReports.com thread. To prove their statements, they even uploaded pictures before and after job completion. The entire job, according to this post, was priced at about $500, including any needed chip repair.

What is the Miracle Method?

The company behind Miracle Method states that it can refinish all of the kitchen and bathroom fixtures. This should allow them to sparkle again like they did when they were brand new.

Regardless of whether you want to repair structural damage like cracked or broken porcelain or fiberglass, or replace outdated colors for a more modern look, Miracle Method will be able to transform the room for a fraction of what other companies would charge for a full remodeling job.

This company will simply “refinish”, as they don’t do any type of carpentry work, paint, or drywall. Miracle Method locations are locally owned and franchised. All of them are able to provide estimates as long as you live inside the designated local zone of the company.

The company will use its own proprietary non-acid bathroom tub refinishing process during the restoration process, which they guarantee will restore any surface you need. A two-step cleaning process will be the first step, in which the specialist will remove any stains, body oils, mineral deposits, and/or soap scum.

This will be followed by the repair of any visible cracks and/or chips, but only after the cleaning is completed. As a third step, the company professionals will use its proprietary bonding agent called MM4 to ensure a strong bond between the new finish that is applied and the older surface.

The last step involves the contractor using a fine-finish spray with which they will apply the acrylic coating. You can see some of the finished jobs on Miracle Method’s official photo gallery.

According to company officials, the refinishing method they use will last up to 15 years and in some circumstances even more, as long as you understand that you will have to follow all of the recommended guidelines and employ proper care.

Miracle Method Refinishing options

Countertop refinishing

This company can perfectly restore and repair your existing countertop, regardless of whether this is part of your kitchen or bathroom.

Miracle Method representatives have stated that they can refinish any type of surface, including multiple laminate counter types, Wilsonart, Formica, Corian, tile, and most types of cultured marble. They have over 12 colors you can choose from, one of the most popular being the stone-like look. If you refinish one of your counters with the help of the Miracle Method, you are guaranteed that you will prolong its lifespan by more than 10 years, as long as you take care of it properly.

Ceramic tile refinishing

You can reproduce the old look of the original tile using the ceramic tile refinishing process. With specialized equipment, a great primer, clear finishes, top coats, and bonding agents, the Miracle Method can create a durable gloss that looks a lot better than a painting job.

The tile surface will be cleaned during the initial stages of the process, followed by the chips and cracks getting filled and then the grout will receive a new coat that is thin enough to look good. This will ensure that all grout lines are evenly filled. Customers can choose between over a dozen colors for the finished look, including the popular Natural Accents™ process proprietary to Miracle Method.

Miracle Method Bathtub refinishing cost

You can restore any chips or cracks inside the bathroom with the help of the Miracle Method. This process can restore a surface and make it look and feel like it’s brand new again. On top of this, the method is said to help you save the average consumer up to 75% of the final bill when compared to total replacement.

Using the Miracle Method, you can restore sinks, vanities, showers, tile surrounds, and bathtubs, and even install products designed to help people prevent falls and slips like Easy Steps, for example.

As for the bathtub types it can restore, the company states that it can easily refinish porcelain, fiberglass, clawfoot tubs, cultured marble, and acrylic.

Miracle Method review and complaints

Most of the complaints you will find online would include the following:

• There are locations that are pretty hard to contact by phone;
• Some people have issues with customer service, although this will be dependent on the location;
• Some people say that they needed several repairs even as low as a year or two after the process has been completed, and a lot of these clients were charged for the job. Most of the complaints are related to the fact that they were charged for the repair rather than needing a repair at all.

Keep in mind that most reviews are positive and your results will vary based on your unique situation and the location you’re working with.
