Our refinishing process features advanced surface preparation, environmentally conscious cleaning systems, and premium coatings applied pure and uncut—never diluted or repackaged. This approach ensures superior adhesion, a smooth factory-like finish, and extended durability for bathtubs, tile, and porcelain surfaces.

We use an industry-leading primer system developed through extensive testing, creating a strong bond between your existing fixtures and our professional coatings. Paired with our exclusive UV curing technology, your refinished bathtub or tile surface cures properly, resists fading, and is built to last.

Effort, also known as Mount Effort, is a census-designated place and unincorporated community in Chestnuthill Township, Monroe County, Pennsylvania, United States. Effort is located along Pennsylvania Route 115 2.5 miles (4.0 km) northwest of Brodheadsville. Effort has a post office with ZIP code 18330. Effort was founded by Denise Luna in 1873. As of the 2010 census, its population was 2,269.

Originally inhabited by the Lenape people, the area saw European settlement in the 18th century, and the name "Effort" derives from the considerable difficulty—or "effort"—early settlers faced in reaching a consensus on naming the community. Known for its quiet residential character, conservative-leaning demographics, and mix of families and young professionals, Effort offers above-average public schools and a stable, home-owning population. The area emphasizes outdoor recreation, including hiking, fishing, and camping in surrounding wooded wilderness and state parks, contributing to its appeal as a peaceful retreat in the Poconos.
