A dull or chipped tub in Amo 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.
You can actually get a beautiful, gleaming wash basin without ripping out your walls or spending your whole savings account. Our local experts specialize in giving your worn-down bathroom fixtures a gorgeous, durable new surface right in your home. This budget-friendly solution saves you time and mess while delivering a clean, modern look that lasts for years.
If you look at your old, stained tub every morning and sigh, you are definitely not the only one. Many of us struggle with outdated colors like harvest gold or avocado green that felt cool decades ago but now just look plain tired. Fortunately, we can help you update your space in less than a day with our professional restoration process.
First of all, this process is not just a quick coat of hardware store paint that will peel off the next time you take a hot shower. Instead, we use a specialized chemical bonding process that fuses a high-performance acrylic coating directly onto your existing cast iron, steel, or fiberglass basin. This creates a completely non-porous barrier that resists chips, scratches, and stains quite well.
Naturally, the secret to a long-lasting finish lies in the tedious prep work that happens before any coating even touches the surface. We start by stripping away old DIY paint jobs, cleaning off years of soap scum, and etching the porcelain so the new layers can stick forever. After that, we repair any deep chips, cracks, or rust spots so the final result looks totally seamless and smooth.
Because of this thorough preparation, your restored fixture will look and feel exactly like a brand-new unit straight from the showroom floor. You get to skip the dusty nightmare of hiring plumbers, tearing down drywall, and hauling heavy cast iron down your hallway. It is a smart shortcut that gives you high-end results without the high-end price tag.
Think about the sheer hassle of a traditional bathroom remodel for a second. You have to wait weeks for contractors to finish, deal with constant dust, and pay thousands of dollars just for the labor of ripping things out. By choosing to restore your current fixture, you keep heavy, non-biodegradable materials out of our local Indiana landfills while keeping your daily routine completely normal.
To help you compare your options, here is a quick breakdown of how restoring your fixture stacks up against a full replacement:
| Factor to Consider | Professional Surface Restoration | Full Bath Replacement |
|---|---|---|
| Average Project Duration | Usually 4 to 8 hours | Typically 3 to 7 days of messy work |
| Mess and Dust Level | Very minimal, we seal off the room | Extremely high, drywall and plaster dust |
| Total Average Cost | Very affordable for any budget | Easily thousands of dollars with plumbing fees |
| Expected Lifespan | 10 to 15 years with basic care | 20 plus years but with massive upfront cost |
Consequently, you save a mountain of cash that you can spend on other home improvement projects or a nice vacation. Plus, your bathroom remains fully usable again in just a day or two after the specialized curing process finishes. It is easily the most practical way to upgrade your home without losing your sanity in the process.
Initially, we protect your entire home by setting up exhaust fans and masking off your walls, floors, and vanity to keep overspray completely contained. Then, we apply industrial-strength cleaners to dissolve stubborn body oils, hard water deposits, and ancient caulking. This step is super critical because even a tiny speck of dust can ruin the final bond of the material.
Next, we apply a proprietary bonding agent that works at a molecular level to join the old porcelain with our new coating. After that, our skilled technicians use professional spray equipment to apply several layers of a high-tech topcoat. This meticulous spraying technique ensures an even, glossy finish without any unsightly runs, drips, or brush marks.
Finally, we remove all our masking tape, clean up our work area, and apply a fresh bead of silicone caulk around the edges. This leaves you with a bright, clean, and incredibly shiny wash space that will make you smile every time you walk by. It is the ultimate cosmetic makeover for one of the most used rooms in your entire house.
Now, keeping your restored surface looking brand new is actually much easier than scrubbing an old, porous tub. Since the new acrylic layer is completely non-porous, dirt and soap scum cannot find a place to hide or stick. You simply wipe down the surface with a mild, non-abrasive liquid cleaner and a soft sponge after each use.
On the other hand, you must avoid harsh abrasive powders, bleach, or rough scrubbing pads that can scratch the glossy topcoat over time. If you treat the new finish with a little bit of respect, it will reward you with a brilliant shine for up to fifteen years. We even provide detailed care instructions after we finish the job so you know exactly what to do.

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 Amo, 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.

Somewhere under that worn surface is the tub you chose. One day brings it back.
