Our local crew comes right to your home to spray a durable, gorgeous new coating that breathes fresh life into your existing setup.

By choosing this smart update, you save thousands of dollars compared to a messy remodel. We even offer a completely free estimate to show you exactly how affordable this quick transformation can be.

Let us help you skip the loud construction noise and the endless dust. You will get a sparkling bathroom centerpiece in just a few hours of work.

Why Refinishing Beats Replacement Every Single Time

Ripping out a cast iron or steel tub often means tearing up your beautiful tile floors and breaking the wall surround. This headache gets expensive fast when you start paying for plumbers and drywall repairs. Choosing to resurface the porcelain coating keeps your original fixture right where it belongs while making it look pristine.

On top of that, older tubs actually hold heat much better than the cheap plastic ones sold today. Keeping your heavy-duty original fixture is a smart move for your utility bills and your bathing comfort. You get to preserve that classic character while enjoying a surface that feels incredibly smooth to the touch.

Which means you keep more money in your wallet for other home projects. Our process seals up old, porous surfaces so they no longer trap dirt and nasty mildew. Cleaning becomes a total breeze because grime just slides right off the new glossy topcoat.

Our team brings all the specialized equipment directly to your doorstep. We take care of every single step, from stripping the old worn layers to spraying the fresh bonding agents. You just sit back and watch your bathroom transform without lifting a finger.

The Magic of Professional Bonding Agents

Many homeowners try those cheap DIY paint kits from the local hardware store and regret it instantly. Those rolled-on finishes usually start peeling and bubbling after just a few hot showers. Our commercial-grade molecular bonding technology ensures the new chemical layer fuses permanently to your old tub structure.

This process requires precise temperature controls and ventilation to cure correctly. We use high-tech exhaust fans to pull any strong fumes completely out of your house while we work. This leaves your indoor air clean and safe for your family and pets.

Once the specialized coating cures, it creates a rock-hard shield against daily wear and tear. You get a brilliant shine that looks identical to brand-new factory porcelain. It feels absolutely wonderful to finally have a bathroom you can feel proud to show off to guests.

How We Prep the Surface for Maximum Durability

First, we meticulously clean the old surface using specialized acid paste to etch the porcelain. This step creates microscopic pores that allow the new primer to grab hold with incredible strength. Without this critical preparation, any new finish would simply slide off over time.

Next, we repair any deep chips, rust spots, or cracks using a heavy-duty waterproof filler. We sand these spots completely flat so the damage vanishes under the new glossy coat. You will never be able to tell where the old rusty patches used to be.

Then, we mask off all your tiles, walls, and faucets with protective paper and tape. This keeps your surrounding bathroom completely safe from any accidental overspray. We treat your home with the utmost respect and care during our visit.

Prep decides everything in Blanchard

Three quiet stages carry the whole result. They are also the ones nobody sees in the after photo.

The surface earns the coating

Stage 1 of 3

The surface earns the coating

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.

Damage is filled, not painted over

Stage 2 of 3

Damage is filled, not painted over

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.

A controlled spray, not a brush

Stage 3 of 3

A controlled spray, not a brush

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.

Reglaze, liner or new tub in Blanchard

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 questionReglazing in placeAcrylic linerFull 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

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.

Six passes over one bathtub in Blanchard

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.

Masking the room

Pass 3

Masking the room

Tile, faucet, floor and glass papered off. Overspray lands on masking paper, never on grout or chrome.

Sprayed finish coats

The finish hardens on its own clock, 24 to 48 hours. We tape the door and leave the tub in peace.

Fresh caulk lines

Pass 6

Fresh caulk lines

Old caulk goes out with the old finish. A new mildew-resistant bead seals tub to tile on the way out.

Refinished, not reborn

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.

What the new surface is

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.

What it is not

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.

The habits that stretch it

  • Clean with liquid bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth; abrasive powders and scouring pads are the finish's only real predators.
  • Skip suction-cup mats, or at least lift them out after the bath. Trapped water works on any coating given enough weeks.
  • Fix a dripping faucet early. A steady drip wears a track in the gloss the way it would wear a stone.
  • Rinse and wipe after bath oils and hair dye; both stain slowly when left to sit.
  • Call us about the first chip, not the fifteenth. Spot repairs on our own finish are quick and cheap.

The whole job, measured in your time in Blanchard

Two minutes

You dial the number

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 figure, spoken

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

The morning of

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

Repair, mask, spray

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

Cure and caulk

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 the work runs in Blanchard

What we quoteTypical rangeReading the number
Standard bathtub, reglazed complete$350 - $800Clean, etch, repairs, sprayed gloss and fresh caulk.
Chip or rust repair alone$150 - $300When the finish is sound and only one wound needs closing.

Caulk renewal with the job$90 - $180Old bead cut out, mildew-resistant line laid in.
Small job minimumaround $250The 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.

How we stand behind a coating

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.

Asked while we tape the paperwork

  1. How bad is the smell, honestly?

    Strong while spraying, gone surprisingly fast. The extractor vents the room to the outside for the whole job around Blanchard, 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.

  2. When can we actually use the tub?

    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.

  3. Can the color change, or only refresh?

    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.

  4. Do fiberglass and acrylic tubs qualify?

    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.

  5. The tub was coated before and peeled. Now what?

    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.

  6. Is five years all I should hope for?

    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.
