A dull or chipped tub in Carthage 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.
Do you want to fix that old stained bathing vessel without spending thousands on a total bathroom remodel? Fortunately, you can totally transform your scratched basin with our local on-site renewing service right here in Jasper County.
Meanwhile, buying a brand new tub costs a small fortune and destroys your tile walls. That means you waste precious weekends dealing with messy contractors instead of relaxing. Therefore, hiring a skilled local pro saves you massive amounts of cash and endless headaches.
Tearing out a heavy iron basin requires smashing walls and paying disposal fees. Instead, our specialized chemical resurfacing bonds a brand new glossy topcoat directly over your existing fixture. This lets you skip the demolition dust entirely and keep your original layout.
Furthermore, standard porcelain replacement involves plumbing redesigns that drag on for weeks. By contrast, our fast spraying technique takes only a single morning to complete. Which means you regain full access to your master bath before the weekend even arrives.
Our crew arrives at your home with industrial-grade etching acids and specialized primers. This guarantees the fresh acrylic coating sticks permanently to the old worn substrate. As a result, you get a gleaming finish that resists chipping and peeling for years.
On top of that, modern polymer formulas dry with a brilliant mirror shine that looks factory-new. That gives you that luxurious aesthetic appeal without the absurd price tag of a gut renovation.
Living around these parts means dealing with hard water that leaves stubborn mineral rings on your fixtures. Fortunately, our smooth non-porous topcoat prevents soap scum and calcium buildup from sticking. This lets you clean your entire wash area in mere minutes every Sunday.
Moreover, local homeowners managing households in a community of 14,690 residents appreciate practical investments that stretch every dollar. Considering the median household income sits near $40,440, spending wisely on targeted home improvements makes absolute financial sense. Therefore, opting for professional surface rejuvenation protects your property value without draining your bank account.
| Project Type | Average Cost | Time Required |
|---|---|---|
| Full Tub Replacement | Four Thousand Dollars | Two to Three Weeks |
| Professional Surface Renewal | Five Hundred Dollars | One Single Morning |
First, we thoroughly scrub your basin to eliminate decades of accumulated grime and soap residue. Then, we apply a heavy-duty chemical bonding agent to bite into the old glaze. This creates a microscopic anchor pattern for the new finish to grip.
Afterwards, we carefully mask off your surrounding tiles and floors to protect your bathroom from overspray. Once everything is prepped, we spray multiple layers of high-grade aliphatic polyurethane coating. This leaves behind a seamless barrier that feels silky smooth against your skin.
Freshly sprayed polymers require adequate time to cross-link and achieve maximum hardness. Consequently, you must keep the area completely dry for at least twenty-four hours after we leave. This ensures your new surface cures properly and lasts for a very long time.
Additionally, you should avoid using harsh abrasive scouring powders or steel wool on the fresh finish. Instead, stick to gentle dish soap and a soft microfiber sponge to maintain that glossy shine. Such simple maintenance habits protect your investment and keep your bathroom looking pristine.
Hardware stores sell cheap roll-on kits that promise miraculous results for under fifty dollars. However, these amateur products usually bubble, peel, and discolor within just a few months. That means you end up paying twice to fix the botched DIY mess.
By contrast, professional equipment uses high-pressure HVLP turbine sprayers to lay down an even, flawless coat. Which means you never have to worry about brush marks or uneven patches ruining your aesthetic. Therefore, leaving this delicate chemical process to seasoned local technicians always pays off.
Many older houses feature deep vintage soaking vessels that modern manufacturers simply do not build anymore. Fortunately, preserving these architectural gems maintains the unique character of your historic property. Our restoration process revitalizes those vintage curves while adding modern stain resistance.
Meanwhile, trying to replace a heavy cast iron antique often proves physically impossible without removing doorways. Instead, our mobile crew treats the heavy fixture right where it sits in your bathroom. This saves your historic walls and preserves your home vintage charm effortlessly.

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 Carthage, 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.
