A dull or chipped tub in Bristol 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.

Most homeowners dread the sheer chaos of a major bathroom remodel. This is because ripping out an old cast iron or steel tub usually involves smashing tiles and breaking your drywall. Fortunately, our team offers a smart alternative that restores the original shine of your fixture right where it sits. You get to avoid the dusty nightmare of a construction zone in your home.
Think about the massive pile of debris that usually ends up in a local landfill. By choosing to restore your existing basin, you actually make a very eco-friendly decision. This process saves you tons of labor costs while keeping perfectly good materials out of the trash. It is a win-win situation for both your wallet and the planet.
Our skilled technicians handle the entire process with extreme care and precision. We meticulously clean the old surface to remove decades of soap scum, hard water deposits, and deep-seated grime. After we apply our specialized bonding agents, your fixture receives a fresh, high-gloss protective topcoat. The final result will absolutely blow you away with its brilliant shine.
Many people wonder how we manage to make a rusty, chipped basin look like a factory-fresh unit. The secret lies in our advanced chemical bonding process and our industrial-grade spray equipment. We do not just paint over the old surface with cheap retail store DIY kits. Instead, we use professional materials that fuse with the original porcelain or acrylic at a molecular level.
To help you understand the difference between our professional service and temporary fixes, we created this comparison table:
| Feature | Our Professional Coating | DIY Retail Kits | Total Replacement |
|---|---|---|---|
| Durability | 10 to 15 years | Less than a year | Decades |
| Average Cost | Very affordable | Cheap but temporary | Extremely expensive |
| Time Required | 3 to 5 hours | Entire weekend | Several days or weeks |
| Final Shine | High-gloss mirror finish | Dull and streaky | Brand new shine |
This simple comparison shows why so many local property owners choose our specialized restoration service. You obtain a gorgeous, durable finish without the massive financial headache of buying new plumbing fixtures. Plus, you can start using your upgraded shower again in just twenty-four hours.
Working with our nearby team means you get neighbors who understand the unique water quality in this region of the Pelican State. We live and work right here in this beautiful area of East Baton Rouge Parish. Our local knowledge helps us select the perfect bonding agents that withstand the high humidity of our Southern climate. This attention to detail ensures your new finish stays beautiful for many years down the road.
Whether you live in a cozy cottage or a large family estate, we treat your home with the utmost respect. We carefully mask off your entire bathroom with protective plastic sheeting to catch any overspray. Our heavy-duty ventilation systems pull all the fumes out of your house while we apply the new coating. This keeps your indoor air clean and safe for your family and pets.
We take pride in helping our community thrive, from the busy streets near the local parks to the quiet residential neighborhoods. Our customers love the fact that we do not hide any fees in our pricing. We believe in honest, upfront communication, which is why our initial consultations are always completely free. You will know exactly what to expect before we ever turn on a spray gun.
Before we ever apply our shiny topcoat, we must repair all the physical damage on your fixture. We use specialized polyester resins to fill in deep gouges, chips, and ugly rust spots. Once these patches cure, we sand them completely flat so they blend seamlessly with the surrounding area. This crucial step ensures the final finish looks incredibly smooth and uniform.
On top of that, we pay special attention to the areas around your drain and overflow plate. These spots are highly prone to moisture damage and rust buildup over time. By sealing these vulnerable areas properly, we prevent water from sneaking underneath the new coating. This extra care guarantees a long-lasting result that will not peel or bubble up next year.
Caring for your upgraded fixture is actually much easier than scrubbing an old, porous porcelain tub. Because our new coating is completely non-porous, dirt and soap residue cannot cling to it easily. You can say goodbye to harsh abrasive cleaners and exhausting scrubbing sessions forever. A simple wipe down with a mild liquid soap and a soft sponge is all you need.
This ease of maintenance saves you precious time during your weekly household cleaning chores. Which means you get to spend more of your weekends relaxing instead of scrubbing bathroom tiles on your knees. Just remember to avoid abrasive powders and scratchy scrubbing pads, as they can dull the glossy finish over time. Treating your new surface with a little care keeps it looking spectacular forever.

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 Bristol, 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.
