A dull or chipped tub in Colorado Springs 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.
Your old tub looks absolutely terrible right now.
Perhaps a nasty shade of outdated pink or scratched up with ugly stains that just will not wash away no matter how hard you scrub.
Fortunately, you do not have to spend thousands of dollars on a messy demolition project to get a sparkling clean bathroom again.
Instead of ripping out the entire fixture, you can opt for a smart surface restoration process.
This budget-friendly alternative breathes brand-new life into worn-out porcelain and fiberglass.
Which means you get a glossy, durable finish without the massive headache of dealing with dusty drywall destruction.
Our dedicated team of local restoration experts travels directly to your home to handle everything from start to finish.
By choosing this modern chemical bonding method, you save tons of time and cash.

Many homeowners confuse this specialized liquid coating application with cheap DIY paint kits.
Actually, those hardware store painting kits usually peel off within a few months because they lack professional-grade bonding agents.
Our high-tech process uses industrial acid etchers and advanced molecular primers to fuse the new shiny topcoat directly onto the original substrate.
This meticulous procedure requires serious training and proper safety gear to execute correctly.
We carefully mask off your entire bathroom and set up heavy-duty ventilation fans to pull the strong chemical fumes outside your home.
After that, we repair any deep chips, rust spots, or structural cracks using specialized waterproof fillers that blend seamlessly.
Once the prep work is complete, we spray multiple layers of premium acrylic urethane over the prepared surface.
This creates an incredibly hard, non-porous shell that looks identical to brand-new porcelain.
Naturally, this new layer prevents dirt and soap scum from sticking, which makes your weekly cleaning chores a breeze.
Let us look at a quick comparison of what you might expect when updating your bathing area.
The table below highlights the differences between completely replacing your fixture versus restoring the existing one.
| Project Factor | Full Replacement Method | Professional Surface Restoration |
|---|---|---|
| Average Duration | 3 to 7 days of noisy construction | Only 4 to 6 hours total |
| Mess and Dust | High amount of drywall dust and debris | Virtually none, fully contained |
| Financial Cost | Very expensive due to plumbing labor | Highly affordable for any budget |
| Usability | Off-limits for up to a week | Ready to use in just 24 hours |
As you can see, the benefits of choosing a smart restoration path are pretty overwhelming.
You avoid paying expensive plumbers to reroute old pipes behind your walls.
Plus, you keep heavy, non-biodegradable waste out of our local trash dumps, which is a great win for the environment.

Our technicians possess years of hands-on experience dealing with stubborn mineral deposits caused by local hard water.
This local expertise ensures that your newly coated fixture will withstand the test of time and look fantastic for years to come.
Skipping the prep work is the biggest mistake amateur contractors make in this industry.
If the old surface has even a tiny trace of body oil, soap scum, or hard water deposits, the new coating will fail to adhere.
That is why we spend the majority of our onsite time cleaning, etching, and sanding the old material down to its bare bones.
We use a specialized alkaline cleaner to strip away decades of built-up grime and bath oils.
Following that step, we apply a safe but powerful etching compound that creates microscopic pores in the porcelain.
This rough texture allows our proprietary molecular primer to grip the old surface with incredible strength.
Most folks choose our classic high-gloss bright white to make their small bathrooms feel much larger and brighter.
However, we also offer beautiful off-white, almond, and modern gray tones to match your specific style preferences.
This customization lets you modernize your space without needing to purchase a whole new vanity or matching toilet.
Our premium finishes retain their luster because we use ultraviolet-resistant topcoats.
This means your glossy finish will not turn a nasty yellow color when exposed to natural sunlight from your bathroom window...
You get a beautiful, lasting shine that looks like a million bucks but only costs a fraction of that price.
Caring for your restored fixture is actually much easier than maintaining an old, porous porcelain one.
Because the new acrylic urethane coating is completely non-porous, dirt has absolutely nowhere to hide.
You simply need to wipe the surface down with a mild liquid soap and a soft sponge after each use.
You must avoid using abrasive scrubbing powders, steel wool, or harsh bleach products on the new finish.
These rough cleaning agents will dull the beautiful shine over time and create microscopic scratches.
Stick to gentle cleaners, and your restored fixture will remain bright and beautiful for up to fifteen years.
On top of that, we highly recommend fixing any leaky faucets as soon as possible.
Constant dripping water can eventually wear down even the toughest industrial coatings over a long period.
Taking care of minor plumbing issues early protects your newly restored bathroom and saves water too.

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 Colorado Springs, 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.
