All over Blaine County, worn bathtubs are resurfaced in place: repairs first, gloss second, fresh caulk on the way out.
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.
Are you tired of staring at a rusty stained tub every time you shower? Honestly you can fix that ugly basin today without throwing cash away on full remodeling. Our fast refinishing crew brings back that pure shine so you get a gorgeous surface fast!
So you want a fresh wash basin without paying thousands to gut the room completely. That makes total sense because smashing old cast iron creates a huge dusty mess all over your house. Well our process fixes cracks and peeling finishes right where your tub sits today.
Actually most folks do not realize how easy it is to coat an old soaking tub. We basically clean out all the gross soap scum and lay down super strong coatings that last for ages. Plus you save tons of money while getting that soft cozy feeling back under your feet.
Furthermore keeping your original tub saves you from hiring extra plumbers to rewrite all the hidden pipe lines underneath. Naturally that means less waiting around for work crews to finish up their dirty tasks. Suddenly your whole house feels like a fancy spa with way less stress overall!
To be honest nobody likes looking at weird brown water rings or chipped porcelain edges every morning. Because of that our high tech spray system sticks tight to old fiberglass or heavy metal frames. Therefore you end up with a smooth shiny base that resists mold and nasty grime effortlessly.
Initially we come into your house and check out the entire surface for hidden structural damage or tiny holes. After checking everything carefully we put down protective paper covering your floor tiles and nearby walls. Consequently your entire home stays totally safe from overspray or sticky chemical drips during the job.
Next up our crew scrubs away every single bit of hard water deposit with special rough cleansers. Honestly if you leave even a tiny speck of oil behind the new layer will just bubble up later. Thus we spend a lot of time prepping the area so your shiny surface stays tough as nails.
Eventually we apply an adhesive bond liquid that grabs onto the old enamel like super glue. Afterwards we spray multiple thin layers of shiny topcoat resin using warm air pressure gun setups. Which means you get an ultra smooth gloss finish that looks completely brand new!
| Work Type | Time Needed | Main Benefit To You |
|---|---|---|
| Full Tub Replacement | 3 to 5 Days | Brand new unit but causes heavy mess and high costs |
| Our Resurfacing Method | 4 to 6 Hours | Instant beauty at a fraction of standard remodeling prices |
Obviously waiting days for contractors to finish a big demo project completely ruins your daily family routine. Fortunately our special liquid acrylic glaze cures super fast under normal house temperatures. So you can literally take a nice hot soak in your restored tub the very next day...
Now let us talk about the beautiful mountainous region around the Big Wood River valley. Living in this stunning area of the Gem State means dealing with freezing winter snow and cold water pipes. With a local population around twenty four thousand people and a median household income near seventy five thousand dollars home care is a top priority.
In addition homeowners across ZIP codes like 83313 and 83333 take massive pride in keeping their living spaces beautiful. However rich mineral water from deep mountain wells can burn permanent rust streaks into old acrylic basins. Because of that our topcoat sealers act like an invincible shield against harsh local minerals.
Besides that local houses here range from historic wooden cabins to modern luxury ski chalets. Therefore saving original fixtures preserves that classic historical charm that makes these mountain homes so special. Plus keeping heavy waste out of local landfills helps keep our beautiful western natural lands fresh and clean.
Sometimes you see cheap DIY paint boxes at big box hardware stores that promise magic results. Honestly those store bought rolls usually start flaking off into your bathwater after just a couple weeks. Sadly cleaning out peeled paint off a drain is a total nightmare you do not want to experience.
Indeed professional technicians use heavy industrial exhaust fans to pull dangerous chemical fumes straight outside your window. Consequently your indoor air stays clean and safe for your kids and house pets while we work. On top of that our heavy duty professional liquids cure way harder than any store liquid ever could.
Likewise our team fixes deep chips using specialized waterproof fillers before laying down any shiny topcoats. That means deep scratches completely vanish like they were never even there in the first place. You end up with pure refined aesthetic grace that brings real pride back into your home routine.
What is more we guarantee our chemical bond so you never have to worry about sudden failure down the road. Naturally having a clear peace of mind is worth way more than trying to paint porcelain yourself on a weekend. Simply sit back and let experienced hands handle the sticky dirty work for you!
Right after we wrap up our work you will want to keep that glassy gloss shining forever. Surprisingly taking care of a restored washing basin is actually way easier than scrubbing old worn enamel. You just wipe it down softly with a mild sponge and simple dish soap once a week.
However you must throw away those harsh abrasive scouring powders or rough wire brush pads forever. Because strong acids can dull the custom shine we worked so hard to build on your tub base. Instead simple warm water rinses keep the finish looking sparkling fresh day after day.
In addition always check your sink and shower faucets to make sure heavy drips do not fall continuously in one spot. Even though our topcoat layers are extremely tough standing water can cause premature dullness over long periods. So fixing a leaky valve quickly saves your gorgeous new finish for decades down the line!
Furthermore using non slip soft rubber mats without heavy suction cups keeps the lower floor area pristine. Which means you stay safe from slipping while keeping the bottom gloss coat completely scratch free. It really is that simple to maintain a gorgeous spa environment right in your own master bath!
Granted buying a new fiberglass basin only costs a few hundred bucks at the local warehouse supply desk. But paying tile guys plumbers and haulers pumps the final bill way past several thousand dollars quickly. Hence our restorative spraying solution saves you up to seventy percent off standard replacement costs!
Equally important is how fast fresh bathroom fixtures boost your overall property tax assessment value. Prospective home buyers always inspect the master bathroom before making an offer on local real estate listings. So a gleaming spotless tub creates an incredible first impression that helps sell houses much faster.
Anyway saving all those thousands of dollars lets you spend your hard earned cash on fun outdoor gear instead. Whether you love skiing mountain slopes or fishing clear streams keeping your money in your pocket feels awesome. You get maximum visual appeal inside your house while spending minimum dough to get it!

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