A dull or chipped tub in Dooms 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 bathroom fixture probably looks like a relic from another decade.
You look at that stained, chipped surface every single day and wonder if you need to tear the whole room apart.
Fortunately, our specialized restoration process saves you from the nightmare of a messy demolition while restoring that beautiful, glossy shine.
Think about the sheer hassle of ripping out a heavy cast iron tub.
This aggressive process usually damages your beautiful floor tiles and nearby plumbing.
By choosing our surface renewal service, you avoid those expensive headaches entirely and get a sparkling basin in just one day.
We bring our professional equipment directly to your home to spray a durable, high-tech coating.
This fresh protective layer bonds instantly to your existing porcelain or fiberglass.
Consequently, you get a clean, modern look without paying thousands of dollars for a brand-new installation.
Many homeowners confuse our specialized process with cheap DIY paint kits.
Actually, those store-bought brush-on paints peel off within a few months of normal use.
Our team uses industrial-grade bonding agents and professional spray guns to ensure a flawless, long-lasting finish.
First, we meticulously clean the old surface with specialized acid cleaners to strip away soap scum.
After that, we repair any deep chips, cracks, or rust spots with a waterproof polyester filler.
This crucial preparation work ensures the new coating sticks perfectly for many years to come.
Next, we apply a proprietary chemical primer that acts like a microscopic anchor.
Then, we spray multiple layers of an advanced acrylic urethane topcoat.
This material cures into an incredibly hard, glossy shell that looks exactly like brand-new porcelain.
Replacing a bathroom fixture is a notorious money pit.
You have to hire carpenters, plumbers, and tile setters to fix the inevitable damage.

Furthermore, older homes often feature unique, high-quality cast iron basins.
These classic fixtures retain heat much better than cheap modern plastic tubs.
By restoring the surface, you preserve that vintage charm and superior heat retention.

Cleaning a worn-out, porous tub is an exhausting chore that requires endless scrubbing.
This happens because the original protective glaze has worn thin over decades of use.
Our ultra-smooth new finish seals those tiny microscopic pores so dirt washes away with simple soap and water.
This means you can throw away those harsh abrasive chemical cleaners.
Which is great news for your lungs and your plumbing system.
You simply wipe the surface down with a soft sponge to maintain that brilliant luster.
On top of that, we can easily customize the color of your new finish.
If you are tired of that outdated avocado green or dusty pink, we can spray a bright, clean white.
This simple color change instantly modernizes your entire bathroom space.
Rust around the drain is a very common issue that looks incredibly unsightly.
If left untreated, these rusty spots will eventually eat through the metal and cause leaks.
Our technicians grind away the corroded material and apply a rust-inhibiting primer before resurfacing.
We also fix those annoying structural cracks in fiberglass units.
By reinforcing the weak spots with strong fiberglass mesh, we prevent future flexing.
This extra step ensures your tub remains sturdy and leak-free for the long haul.
Naturally, you might worry about strong chemical odors during the spraying process.
To solve this, we set up industrial exhaust fans and window ventilation systems.
These powerful blowers pull the fumes out of your home, keeping your indoor air fresh and safe.
Our technician will also carefully mask off your walls, floors, and vanity with heavy paper and tape.
This meticulous setup prevents any overspray from landing on your bathroom fixtures.
Once we finish the job, we pack up all our trash so your bathroom is ready to enjoy.
We recommend letting the new surface cure for a full twenty-four hours before running water.
After this short waiting period, you can jump in and enjoy a relaxing bath.
The resulting finish feels incredibly smooth against your skin, offering a wonderful touch of daily pleasure.
To keep your restored fixture looking spectacular, you must treat it with a little care.
Avoid using suction-cup bathmats, as they can pull on the newly bonded coating.
Instead, we can apply an integrated slip-resistant surface directly to the bottom of the basin during our process.
Never use harsh scouring pads or abrasive powders on your shiny new coating.
Stick to mild dish soaps or specialized foam cleaners to preserve the gloss.
With these basic habits, your beautifully restored fixture will shine bright 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 Dooms, 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.
