A Fresh Bathtub for a Seattle Family: Our Small Part in One Tub a Month

We spend our days working in Seattle homes, and we see how much a bathroom shapes everyday life. A peeling, worn-out bathtub isn’t just an eyesore. It can make one of the simplest parts of the day feel harder than it should.

So when Proper Reglazing told us about One Tub a Month, a community program that refinishes one bathtub every month, free of charge, for a local family in need, we were grateful to be invited to help with the very first one.

Sarah’s story

This November, Sarah, a Seattle mom, and her son got a fresh start in their bathroom. Their tub had been peeling, and we were glad to cover the cost of materials and labor. The real credit belongs to Proper Reglazing’s crew, who refinished the bathtub in a single day with a tough urethane finish backed by a 5-year warranty.

Why we’re sharing this

Our part was a small one. We’re sharing it because programs like this only work when neighbors know they exist. If you know a family living with a worn-out tub, please consider nominating them at properreglazing.com/one-tub-a-month.

Thank you to Proper Reglazing for organizing this, and to Sarah for letting us be a part of her story.
