A dull or chipped tub in Carls Corner 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 easily transform your worn-out, stained tub into a gleaming masterpiece in just a few hours.
Our professional crew visits your home to spray a durable, glossy coating directly over your existing cast iron or steel fixture.
This smart process saves you thousands of dollars compared to a messy, weeks-long demolition job.
Think about the last time you scrubbed that dingy surface only to see the same ugly stains staring back at you.
Fortunately, our specialized surface renewal method completely seals up those porous areas where dirt and lime like to hide.
Which means you get to enjoy a sparkling clean basin that feels incredibly smooth to the touch.
Now, you might wonder how we achieve such a durable finish without actually tearing anything out of your wall.
We rely on high-tech bonding agents and premium acrylic urethanes that chemically fuse to your old porcelain.
By choosing this modern pathway, you avoid the headache of dealing with dusty drywall work and expensive plumbing re-routing.
First, we meticulously clean the entire area with specialized acid cleaners to strip away decades of soap scum and body oils.
This critical step ensures that our new coating grabs onto the original substrate with maximum strength.
If we skip this deep preparation, the new layer would simply peel off like sunburned skin within a few months.
Subsequently, we repair every single chip, scratch, and rust spot using a heavy-duty waterproof filler.
This meticulous patching work creates a perfectly flat canvas so the final sprayed product looks absolutely flawless.
You will not even remember where those old, rusty eyesores around the drain used to be.
After that, we apply a proprietary bonding agent that acts like a chemical anchor between the old enamel and the new topcoat.
This advanced liquid primer represents the secret weapon of our industry that cheap DIY kits simply do not include.
As a result, your newly finished piece will withstand daily hot baths and cold showers for many years to come.
Let us look closely at the actual steps involved when you decide to rip out an old bathing fixture.
You must pay a plumber, a carpenter, a tile setter, and a waste disposal company to haul away the heavy debris.
This massive headache can easily drag on for a week, leaving your family without a functioning bathroom.
| Project Factor | Total Demolition and Replacement | Our Specialized Surface Restoration |
|---|---|---|
| Average Cost | Very high (often $3,000 to $8,000) | Very budget-friendly (fraction of replacement) |
| Time to Complete | Up to two weeks of loud construction | Only 4 to 6 hours from start to finish |
| Mess and Dust | Extreme drywall dust and broken tiles | Virtually none with our exhaust systems |
| Plumbing Hassles | Requires moving pipes and drain lines | No plumbing modifications needed at all |
On top of that, older homes often feature gorgeous, heavy cast iron tubs that retain heat much better than modern plastic replacements.
Our service allows you to preserve that vintage character while upgrading the look to match a contemporary aesthetic.
You get to keep the solid, high-quality build of yesteryear while enjoying the pristine look of a modern showroom.
Additionally, keeping your old fixture out of the local landfill is a fantastic choice for our environment.
Tons of heavy porcelain and cast iron clog up Texas dumps every single day because people do not realize restoration is possible.
By choosing our eco-friendly solution, you do your part to reduce waste while saving your hard-earned money.
Before we even bring our spray guns inside, we mask off your entire bathroom with thick protective plastic sheeting.
This careful preparation protects your vanity, toilet, floors, and walls from any stray overspray particles.
We also set up a powerful industrial exhaust fan in the window to pull all fumes and paint odors safely outdoors.
Once the masking is complete, we spray multiple layers of high-performance acrylic urethane using a precision HVLP system.
This technique creates a deep, rich luster that perfectly mimics the look of brand new fired porcelain.
You will be amazed at how the light reflects off the glossy surface once we pack up our gear.
Finally, we cure the new finish using specialized heat lamps to accelerate the chemical bonding process.
This means you only have to wait a mere twenty-four hours before you can jump in and enjoy a warm, relaxing soak.
Our efficient system minimizes disruption to your busy household so you can get back to your normal routine fast.
To keep your renewed surface looking like a million bucks, you should completely avoid abrasive chemical cleaners.
Harsh scrubbing powders and bleach will slowly dull the gorgeous shine over time, making it look matte and lifeless.
Instead, we recommend using mild liquid dish soaps or gentle foaming bathroom sprays with a soft microfiber cloth.
Furthermore, you must never leave wet washcloths or shampoo bottles sitting directly on the bottom of the basin.
Trapped moisture under heavy objects can eventually weaken the bond and cause unsightly bubbling to occur.
Taking these simple precautions ensures that your beautiful finish remains bright, slick, and incredibly clean for up to fifteen years.

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 Carls Corner, 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.
