A dull or chipped tub in Armada 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 probably stare at that stained, peeling porcelain every single morning while brushing your teeth. It ruins the whole vibe of your bathroom space, right?
Fortunately, you can transform that eyesore into a brand new looking piece without spending a fortune. This simple process saves you thousands compared to buying a replacement.
Basically, we apply a high-tech synthetic coating directly over your existing basin. This stuff creates a shiny finish that feels just as smooth as the original material.
Think about how much time you save by skipping the demolition work. You avoid ripping out walls or dealing with heavy plumbing issues that usually appear during big renovations.
Because we spray a special chemical bond, the new layer stays stuck for years. It protects your tub from rust, chips, and those nasty yellow stains that never seem to leave.
Furthermore, this method uses a durable polymer that resists soap scum build-up easily. You will find that cleaning your bathing area takes way less effort than before.
Living in a town with about 1,796 residents means you appreciate good value for your hard-earned money. With a median household income hovering around $60,341, spending cash wisely is usually the priority.
Replacing a heavy cast iron basin requires paying for expensive labor and disposal fees. Instead, you can invest that budget into other parts of your home, like upgrading your lighting.
Additionally, this process works perfectly for historical homes found around the 48005 area code. You keep the original shape of your vintage unit while getting a modern look.
| Feature | Benefit |
|---|---|
| Chemical bonding agent | Prevents peeling and flaking over time |
| High-gloss resin finish | Provides a bright and sanitary appearance |
| Non-porous surface | Makes daily scrubbing much faster |
| Quick cure cycle | Lets you use your bathroom within a day |
First, we carefully strip away the old caulking and scrub the surface until it is spotless. We need to remove every speck of grease to ensure the new material sticks properly.
Then, we mask off the surrounding tiles and floor to keep everything clean. You would not believe how messy things get if someone skips this vital part!
Next, we apply several coats of our specialized mixture using high-pressure equipment. This guarantees a level, thick application that covers all the ugly scratches and deep discoloration.
After that, we let it harden for a short window to reach full strength. You are left with a pristine, glossy surface that looks exactly like a brand-new showroom unit.
Obviously, you should avoid using harsh scrubbers that might scratch the new finish. A simple soft sponge and mild soap will keep it glowing for a long time.
Interestingly, this finish is much easier to manage than old, chipped porcelain. Because the material is non-porous, grime does not sink into the surface anymore.
Avoid putting heavy metal items directly onto the ledge if you want to be extra careful. Use a small rubber mat if you plan to keep shampoo bottles on the edge.
By being mindful of these basic habits, you ensure the longevity of your investment. It really is a simple way to keep your home looking sharp without constant work.
Some folks ask if the smell stays in the house for weeks on end. We use ventilation fans to pull the fumes outside while we work on your unit.
Within a few hours of leaving, the ventilation clears out the air effectively. You will only smell a faint clean scent that fades away quite quickly.
Compared to a full-blown construction project, this is practically odorless and very fast. You get your privacy back almost immediately after we finish the job.
Most homeowners find that the tiny bit of temporary ventilation is worth the massive payoff. You gain a beautiful, refreshed bathroom that you can actually enjoy once again.
Usually, we can fix almost any unit as long as it is not actively falling apart. If you see massive holes or rusted-out metal, we might need to discuss some specific repairs first.
However, most tubs simply suffer from surface damage and stubborn stains that make them look old. This process covers those problems perfectly and makes them disappear from sight.
Feel free to run your hand along the bottom to check for soft spots. If the floor feels solid, you are a great candidate for this professional upgrade.
Whether you want to sell your house or just enjoy it more, looks matter. A clean, white finish adds instant value and makes the space feel luxurious.
You do not need to choose expensive marble or stone to achieve that high-end look. A simple, professional job creates a sense of refinement that changes the whole room.
Plus, you get to stay in your own bed instead of staying at a hotel. There is no noise from saws or giant hammers crashing through your quiet morning routine.

Getting a professional opinion helps you avoid mistakes that others make when trying DIY kits. Those store-bought kits often peel after a few months because they lack proper bonding.
Trusting a pro means you get the right prep work done the first time. You avoid the headache of redoing a failed project that wasted your time and money.
Once you see the results, you will wonder why you waited so long. Your bathroom will become your favorite place to unwind after a long day at work.

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 Armada, 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.
Zoom for the lay of the land; the link lists further down name every community the van reaches from here.
The technician who picks up when you call works these streets, so the ledger below is home turf rather than trivia.
Somewhere under that worn surface is the tub you chose. One day brings it back.
