All over Comal County, worn bathtubs are resurfaced in place: repairs first, gloss second, fresh caulk on the way out.
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 probably look at your old, chipped tub and dream of a brand new bathroom without the massive price tag. Getting that glossy finish back is actually quite simple when you know the right tricks to resurfacing your porcelain or fiberglass basins.
Now, imagine walking into your bathroom and seeing a sparkling, smooth surface that feels brand new under your touch. This process gives you a deep sense of satisfaction while saving you thousands of dollars compared to a full demolition project.
Replacing a heavy cast iron or deep soaking unit is a nightmare that involves ripping out tiles and plumbing. Instead of dealing with that mess, we can chemically bond a high-grade polymer coating directly onto the existing structure.
Consequently, you avoid the dust, the noise, and the weeks of construction workers stomping through your house. This method keeps your original layout intact while providing a finish that rivals high-end luxury materials in both appearance and durability.
Furthermore, you help the environment by keeping old materials out of the landfill when you choose this route. Because we specialize in this local area, we know exactly how the water chemistry in this beautiful Texas county affects your fixtures.
First, we scrub the old surface down to remove every bit of soap scum, lime scale, and stubborn grime. Then, we repair any cracks or chips with a specialized filler that blends perfectly into the base material.
After the repairs, we apply a bonding agent that creates a microscopic grip for the new coating to cling to. This step is vital because it ensures the finish stays put for years without peeling or bubbling up.
Finally, we spray on the coating using a high-volume low-pressure system to guarantee a smooth, even layer. This results in a slick, non-porous barrier that makes cleaning your bathroom easier than you ever imagined possible.

Being based right here in Comal County means we are never far when you need a hand with your home improvements. With a population that is growing fast, we see so many families wanting to modernize their living spaces.
Because the median household income varies across our local ZIP codes, we prioritize affordable solutions that look like a million bucks. You deserve a space that feels like a peaceful retreat without needing to empty your savings account.
Whether you live near the winding river or up on the limestone hills, your home deserves the best care. We bring our tools and our experience directly to your doorstep to make the magic happen right before your eyes.
Before we arrive, try to clear all your personal items like shampoos, soaps, and loofahs off the ledge. Also, make sure the bathroom is as dry as possible so we can get straight to the cleaning phase.
Once we begin, the chemical fumes can be a bit strong, so keep your windows open and your pets in another room. We use high-quality ventilation equipment to pull the air out, but fresh air is always a huge help.
After the work is finished, you just need to wait about twenty-four hours for everything to cure properly. This patience rewards you with a finish that feels like pure velvet and looks like polished crystal.
Many hardware store kits promise a quick fix, but they usually fail within a few months of heavy use. Conversely, the professional-grade resins we use are designed to withstand years of scrubbing and hot water exposure.
This choice means you never have to worry about yellowing or dulling after a few years of daily showers. We select our supplies for their long-lasting strength so you can enjoy your beautiful tub with total peace of mind.
On top of that, these materials are resistant to mold and mildew because they seal the surface entirely. Which means you spend less time scrubbing and more time relaxing in your upgraded space after a long day.
If you notice your tub is stained, rough to the touch, or has visible rust spots, it is time for a change. These imperfections are not just eyesores because they can harbor bacteria and grime that regular cleaning cannot reach.
Ignoring these issues often leads to more expensive damage down the road as the material underneath starts to erode. By addressing it early, you stop the decay and restore the structural integrity of your favorite soaking spot.
Perhaps you simply hate the outdated color of your fixtures, like harvest gold or avocado green. A fresh coat of bright white or soft almond can completely change the mood of your entire house overnight.
While a DIY project sounds tempting, the precision required to get a glass-smooth finish is quite demanding. One small mistake with the spray gun can cause drips or uneven patches that are very hard to fix later.
By hiring a team that does this every single day, you ensure a perfect result every time. We have refined our technique to eliminate air bubbles and ensure the coating is the exact thickness needed for maximum longevity.
Moreover, we bring all the safety gear, masking materials, and professional ventilation needed to keep your home safe. You get the benefit of our years of practice without having to learn all the technical details yourself.
Now that you know how this process works, the next step is finding out how much it will cost for your specific project. We believe in being transparent, so we always offer a free quote before any work starts.
You just need to reach out and tell us a bit about your bathroom layout and what you want to achieve. We can often give you a very accurate estimate based on a few quick photos of your current setup.

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, 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.
Somewhere under that worn surface is the tub you chose. One day brings it back.
