A dull or chipped tub in Algoma does not need a demolition crew. It needs one technician, one day and a sprayed finish that shines.
One number reaches the technician who would hold the gun. The figure comes on the call, not after a visit.
(866) 951-0558The voice on the line belongs to the trade, not to a switchboard reading a script. Two minutes of plain description are enough to price a standard tub.
Do you look at your worn out bathtub and feel completely depressed? Now is the best time to fix that ugly enamel without spending a fortune on a total bathroom remodel.
This charming little town nestled in Pontotoc County houses wonderful folks who deserve lovely homes. Yet many local residents with ZIP codes 38820 deal with cracked tubs and peeling porcelain surfaces daily.
Perhaps your median household income sits around thirty-eight thousand two hundred and fifty dollars, which makes budgeting for a massive renovation nearly impossible. Fortunately, our local trade offers a brilliant workaround that saves you thousands of hard earned dollars. By choosing our on site refinishing service, you bypass demolition dust and enjoy a stunning basin once again.
Many homeowners wonder how a worn out receptacle gets transformed into a gleaming masterpiece overnight. During this procedure, skilled local technicians arrive at your property to repair chips and apply fresh coatings. This meticulous method restores the protective barrier of your tub and gives you years of reliable daily usage.
Surface preparation starts with a deep chemical wash to eliminate stubborn soap scum and body oils. Next, professionals mask off your surrounding tile and floors to protect your bathroom from overspray. Such careful preparation lets you avoid messy mistakes while ensuring the bonding agent grips properly.
After scrubbing, technicians etch the porcelain or fiberglass to create microscopic grooves for maximum paint adhesion. Following the etch, industrial primers fill minor scratches and smooth out rough patches on the basin floor. This foundational step guarantees your newly coated fixture resists chipping and stays gorgeous for a long time.
Selecting a modern color helps tie your entire bathroom decor together nicely without breaking the bank. Traditional bright white remains popular because it brightens up small bathrooms and matches any shower curtain. Alternatively, almond and biscuit tones offer a softer warmth that many traditional homeowners truly adore.
High gloss topcoats create a brilliant shine that makes scrubbing away mildew remarkably easy every weekend. Furthermore, textured bottoms prevent dangerous slips and falls while you step in for a relaxing morning shower. This thoughtful safety feature protects your family and provides you with complete peace of mind.
Durability matters tremendously when you have a bustling household with kids and pets splashing around daily. Modern acrylic polyurethane formulas resist scratching and staining much better than older factory applied enamel finishes ever could. Consequently, your investment stays strong against harsh bath salts and abrasive cleaning sponges.
| Feature | Traditional Replacement | Our Surface Restoration |
|---|---|---|
| Time Required | One to two weeks | Just one single day |
| Average Cost | Extremely expensive | Highly affordable |
| Mess Level | Heavy debris and drywall dust | Zero demolition or trash |
Tearing out an old cast iron tub creates a massive structural nightmare for any weekend DIY warrior. Plumbers must disconnect drain pipes and maneuver heavy iron beasts down narrow hallways without damaging doorways. By contrast, our local crew handles the entire project right inside your bathroom without moving plumbing.
Landfills in Mississippi already receive enough heavy construction waste from needless remodeling projects every single year. Preserving your existing basin keeps heavy materials out of local waste sites and protects our environment. This eco friendly choice lets you modernize your home while staying mindful of ecological impact.
Financial savings represent the biggest perk for families living within this population of eight hundred forty nine. Instead of financing a ten thousand dollar gut job, you spend a fraction of that amount. This leaves plenty of cash in your bank account for other important household upgrades.
Proper aftercare ensures your newly coated basin maintains its mirror like shine for well over a decade. Avoid abrasive scouring powders because they scratch the glossy topcoat and dull the reflective finish over time. Instead, stick with mild liquid dish soaps and soft microfiber cloths for your weekly cleaning routine.
Preventing standing water means wiping down the tub floor after every single bath or morning shower. Furthermore, fixing leaky faucets stops mineral deposits from etching the fresh surface prematurely and causing ugly stains. These simple habits protect your investment and keep your bathroom looking brand new.
Do you notice any peeling or dull spots developing around the drain over the next few years? Our local warranty covers touch ups and gives you total confidence in the craftsmanship we provide. This reliable guarantee ensures you never regret bringing new life to your vintage bathroom centerpiece.

Three quiet stages carry the whole result. They are also the ones nobody sees in the after photo.
Stage 1 of 3
A reglaze fails or lasts on what happens before the gun comes out. The old surface gets scrubbed of soap film and silicone, etched or primed so the new material has something to grip, then wet sanded until it feels like fine paper. Skip any of that and the prettiest coat in the world lets go within a year, which is exactly the story most peeling tubs tell us.
Stage 2 of 3
Chips, rust blooms and worn drain rings are ground back to sound material and rebuilt with polyester filler, then sanded flush until a fingertip cannot find the spot. Coating over damage only photographs well on day one; a repair you cannot feel is what keeps the finish honest for years.
Stage 3 of 3
The topcoat goes on in fine sprayed passes with an extractor pulling air out the window the whole time. Sprayed layers flow together into one even skin, which is why the result reads as gloss rather than as paint. Brushes and rollers leave the texture that gives cheap refinishing its reputation.
Three real ways out of a worn tub. We only do the first one, so the other two columns are simply what we would tell a friend.
| The question | Reglazing in place | Acrylic liner | Full replacement |
|---|---|---|---|
| What a standard tub costs | $350 to $800 | $1,600 to $4,000 | $3,000 to $10,000 once walls and plumbing join in |
| Bathroom out of action | One day, then the cure | Weeks of lead time, then a fitting day | One to two weeks of trades |
| Demolition involved | None at all | None, but the old tub is sealed inside | Walls opened, floor patched, debris hauled |
| Honest life expectancy | Five years and up when cared for | Long, unless water creeps between the shells | Decades |
| Watch out for | Prep shortcuts by cut-rate crews | A spongy feel and hidden moisture | The budget doubling mid-project |
If your tub is cracked through, actively leaking underneath, or you simply want a different fixture, reglazing is the wrong tool, a verdict you will hear on the very first call.
Pass 1
Soap scum, silicone and old wax stripped, then the surface etched or bonded so the coating can bite.
Pass 2
Every ding ground out, filled and sanded flush. The repairs disappear under the coating instead of through it.
Pass 3
Tile, faucet, floor and glass papered off. Overspray lands on masking paper, never on grout or chrome.
Pass 4
Primer, then gloss coats laid on in thin passes until the surface reads as one poured skin.
Pass 5
The finish hardens on its own clock, 24 to 48 hours. We tape the door and leave the tub in peace.
Pass 6
Old caulk goes out with the old finish. A new mildew-resistant bead seals tub to tile on the way out.
A reglazed tub is your old tub wearing a professional coating. That is a fine thing to be, as long as everyone knows it going in.
A sprayed acrylic urethane skin, bonded to prepared porcelain, steel or fiberglass. It is smooth, glossy, warm to the touch and fully waterproof. Done properly it gives five years and more of daily service, and plenty of our tubs sail well past that with nothing but gentle cleaning.
It is not factory enamel fired onto iron at kiln temperatures, and no honest refinisher will tell you otherwise. It can be scratched by grit, dulled by harsh powders and lifted by standing water in a spot where caulk has failed. It is a durable coating, not a new tub, and it is priced like one.
Two minutes
ZIP, what the tub is made of, what bothers you about it. Said out loud it goes faster than typing, and a photo can follow later if the case is odd.
The same call
The technician who would do the work asks his questions and names a firm figure for a standard job, then confirms it in writing before any van is booked.
You set the date
One van, one technician, drop cloths from the front door to the bathroom. Water off for nothing; only the tub is out of service.
Most of that day
Damage filled and sanded, the room masked, extractor running, then the primer and gloss coats go on in thin, even passes.
24 to 48 hours
The finish hardens untouched, the new caulk bead goes in, and you run the first bath knowing exactly what was done and what to expect of it.
| What we quote | Typical range | Reading the number |
|---|---|---|
| Standard bathtub, reglazed complete | $350 - $800 | Clean, etch, repairs, sprayed gloss and fresh caulk. |
| Chip or rust repair alone | $150 - $300 | When the finish is sound and only one wound needs closing. |
| Clawfoot tub, inside and out | $700 - $1,300 | Two surfaces, more masking, and paint-grade feet if you wish. |
| Shower pan or base | $300 - $550 | Same process on the floor you stand on every morning. |
| Caulk renewal with the job | $90 - $180 | Old bead cut out, mildew-resistant line laid in. |
| Small job minimum | around $250 | The van, the materials and the cure time exist even for tiny work. |
Heavy previous coatings that must be stripped, unusual colors and badly pitted iron push a job toward the top of its bracket. The written price reaches you before the van is even loaded, and it holds.
Ventilation is not a courtesy, it is part of the job. The extractor runs from the first solvent wipe to the last sprayed pass, pulling air out the window instead of through your hallway, and the technician wears supplied air even when the household has gone out for the day. By the evening the bathroom smells like a bathroom again.
The materials are the professional two-part systems made for this trade, mixed fresh on site, never the single-can kits sold next to the paint rollers. It is the difference between a finish that cures into a hard skin and one that stays soft enough to peel at the drain within a season, and it is most of the reason our work carries a written workmanship promise against peeling and loss of adhesion.
And the schedule respects the cure. We tell you in writing when the tub goes back into service, 24 hours for most jobs and 48 for the cautious ones, because handing a family a beautiful surface and letting them ruin it that same night helps nobody. If anything in our workmanship lets go early, the technician comes back and makes it right without a discussion about whose fault the water was.
Strong while spraying, gone surprisingly fast. The extractor vents the room to the outside for the whole job around Algoma, so the rest of the home stays livable, and by the next morning the odor has left with the fumes. Pregnant households and bird owners get the frank version of this talk before booking.
Between 24 and 48 hours after the final coat, and the exact time is written on the paperwork you keep. The first bath is not a gamble; it is a date.
Any color. The most common request is retiring an avocado, pink or almond tub to white, and the coating is tinted before it is sprayed, so the new color is in the material rather than painted over it.
Yes. The prep changes, the primer changes, the result reads the same. Fiberglass with soft, flexing spots gets extra reinforcement talk first, because coating a moving floor is how warranties die.
Now the old coating comes fully off, which is honest work we price plainly, and then the job proceeds as if the tub had never been touched. Peeling almost always means the first crew skipped the etch or sprayed over silicone, not that your tub rejects coatings.
Five years is the floor we are comfortable promising out loud, not the ceiling. With soft cleaners, no standing mats and caulk kept sound, these finishes routinely serve a decade. What we refuse to do is whisper twenty and hope you lose our number.
