A dull or chipped tub in Delafield 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.

Our skilled local team travels directly to your home to deliver a stunning transformation that saves you thousands of dollars.
Think about the massive headache of tearing out a heavy cast iron fixture. Naturally, this destructive process ruins your beautiful tile work and creates piles of dusty debris. By choosing our specialized bonding and topcoat system, you get a gleaming, fresh finish without the chaos.
We believe in keeping things simple and affordable for our hardworking neighbors. Because of this commitment, we happily provide a completely free, no-obligation estimate right at your doorstep. You will see exactly how easy it is to upgrade your home today.
Replacing a bathroom fixture sounds straightforward until you actually start pulling things apart. For instance, the old plumbing pipes might crack during the removal process. That unexpected disaster instantly doubles your plumbing bill and delays your project for days.
On top of that, new replacement units often feel flimsy compared to old-school craftsmanship. Those classic, heavy tubs have incredible heat retention that modern plastic shells just cannot match. Keeping your original fixture preserves that solid, premium feel while giving it a brilliant face-lift.
This clever updates saves you a mountain of cash that you can spend elsewhere. Indeed, our customers love getting a pristine, high-gloss look for a tiny fraction of remodeling costs. It is easily the smartest budget hack for any homeowner looking to upgrade.
| Project Factor | Complete Replacement | Our Restoration Service |
|---|---|---|
| Average Duration | One to two weeks of messy construction | Finished in just a single day |
| Total Cost | Very expensive due to labor and tiling | Extremely budget-friendly |
| Mess & Dust | Heavy drywall dust and broken tiles | Virtually none, totally contained |
First, we meticulously clean the entire area to remove every single trace of soap scum and mineral deposits. This deep preparation step is absolutely vital because even a tiny speck of grease can ruin the final bond. We take our time here to ensure the surface is completely pristine.
Next, our technicians apply a specialized acid etch to create microscopic pores on the old porcelain or acrylic. Which means the new coatings will lock onto the original material with an iron-grip hold. We never skip this step because it prevents peeling and bubbling down the road.
After that, we spray multiple layers of a high-performance, aliphatic acrylic polyurethane coating. This advanced material cures into an incredibly hard, glossy shell that looks just like brand-new ceramic. You will love how easily dirt slides off this non-porous barrier.
Many cheap DIY kits fail within a few months because they lack professional-grade molecular bonding agents. In contrast, our team utilizes industrial silane coupling agents to fuse the new layers directly to the old substrate. This chemical bond ensures your beautiful new finish will not chip under daily pressure.
Consequently, you get a durable surface that stands up to hot water, bath toys, and heavy scrubbing. This advanced tech keeps your bathroom looking like a luxury spa for many years to come. It truly is a night-and-day difference compared to basic store-bought paint kits.
Naturally, applying these high-strength coatings does produce a temporary chemical odor during the spraying process. To keep your family comfortable, we set up industrial exhaust fans and heavy-duty ductwork to pull all fumes outside. This careful setup ensures your indoor air remains clean and safe.
Once our exhaust system is running, the smell is barely noticeable in the rest of your home. Within a few hours after we wrap up, the scent completely dissipates. You can rest easy knowing we prioritize your safety and peace of mind.
To keep your newly coated surface shining bright, you must ditch those harsh abrasive scrubbers. Bleach, steel wool, and gritty powders will scratch the glossy finish over time. Instead, simply wipe the area down with mild dish soap and a soft microfiber cloth.
This easy maintenance routine actually saves you tons of physical scrubbing effort every week. Because the new non-porous barrier resists dirt so well, grime washes away with minimal rubbing. It is the ultimate low-maintenance dream for busy households.
Additionally, we highly recommend avoiding leaving wet bottles or damp washcloths sitting on the ledge. Standing water can eventually weaken the bond if left unchecked for weeks on end. Taking this simple precaution guarantees your beautiful gloss remains flawless 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 Delafield, 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.
