Revive Your Tired Tub Without the Mess of a Full Demo

You can easily save thousands of dollars today by choosing to renew your existing bathroom fixtures instead of ripping them out.
Our skilled local team brings life back to worn, stained, and chipped surfaces right in your home.
Get your free estimate now and see how simple it is to transform your space on a budget.

Why Refinishing Beats Total Replacement Every Single Time

First of all, ripping out a heavy cast iron or steel tub creates a massive, dusty nightmare inside your house.
This mess often leads to broken tiles, ruined flooring, and unexpected plumbing headaches that drain your wallet fast.
By choosing to recoat the surface instead, you completely bypass the chaos of a major demolition project.

On top of that, the financial savings are absolutely massive when you decide to restore what you already own.
New tubs might look cheap at the local home improvement store, but hiring contractors to install them is incredibly pricey.
Our fast surface restoration process keeps cash in your pocket while delivering a gorgeous, glossy finish that looks brand new.

This smart choice also saves you a ton of precious time.
While a full remodel can take weeks of waiting and endless dust, our clean application process wraps up in just a single day.
Which means you get to use your refreshed bathroom almost immediately without dealing with endless contractor delays.

The Science Behind Our High-Performance Coatings

To start, we do not just spray some cheap hardware store paint over your old fixture and call it a day.
Actually, we use advanced bonding agents that chemically fuse with the original porcelain or fiberglass material.
This critical step ensures the new layer will never peel or bubble when you run a hot bath.

Next, we apply premium aliphatic acrylic polyurethane coatings that offer incredible durability and a brilliant shine.
These industrial-grade materials resist deep stains, chips, and the yellowing that often happens with age.
Your finished surface gets a gorgeous luster that rivals the look of expensive brand-new porcelain.

To help you compare your options, we put together this quick breakdown of how these methods stack up:

Factor Our Recoating Service Full Replacement
Average Cost Very affordable and budget-friendly Extremely expensive with hidden fees
Project Time Finished in a few hours Several days to weeks of mess
Mess Level Very clean and contained High dust and debris everywhere

Our Step-by-Step Restoration Process Explained

Before we ever open a single bottle of coating, we meticulously clean the entire area to remove soap scum and mineral deposits.
We use specialized acid cleaners that etch the old glaze to create microscopic pores for the new finish to grip onto.
Without this prep work, the new surface simply would not last more than a few months.

Following that deep clean, we repair every single chip, crack, and rust spot using waterproof polyester fillers.
We sand these spots perfectly flat so the final result is completely seamless and smooth to the touch.
This attention to detail is why our finished projects look so incredibly flawless.

Finally, we carefully mask off your entire bathroom with protective paper and plastic to prevent any overspray from drifting.
Then we use professional HVLP spray equipment to apply multiple coats of topcoat for a deep, rich luster.
This careful method gives you a beautiful finish while keeping the rest of your home pristine and clean.

How to Maintain Your Newly Restored Surface

To keep your sparkling surface looking great for years, you must avoid harsh abrasive cleansers like bleach or scrubbing powders.
Instead, we highly recommend using mild dish soap or gentle spray cleaners along with a soft microfiber cloth.
This simple routine preserves the brilliant shine and prevents micro-scratches from dulling the beautiful finish.

Additionally, you should never leave wet shampoo bottles or heavy toys sitting directly on the surface for long periods.
Moisture trapped underneath these items can eventually weaken the bond and cause premature wear.
Taking these small precautions ensures your upgraded bathroom remains a source of pride for a very long time.

Prep decides everything in Elaine

Three quiet stages carry the whole result. They are also the ones nobody sees in the after photo.

The surface earns the coating

Stage 1 of 3

The surface earns the coating

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.

Damage is filled, not painted over

Stage 2 of 3

Damage is filled, not painted over

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.

A controlled spray, not a brush

Stage 3 of 3

A controlled spray, not a brush

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.

Reglaze, liner or new tub in Elaine

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 questionReglazing in placeAcrylic linerFull 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

Watch out forPrep shortcuts by cut-rate crewsA spongy feel and hidden moistureThe 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.

Six passes over one bathtub in Elaine

Deep clean and etch

Pass 1

Deep clean and etch

Soap scum, silicone and old wax stripped, then the surface etched or bonded so the coating can bite.

Chip and rust repair

Pass 2

Chip and rust repair

Every ding ground out, filled and sanded flush. The repairs disappear under the coating instead of through it.

Masking the room

Pass 3

Masking the room

Tile, faucet, floor and glass papered off. Overspray lands on masking paper, never on grout or chrome.

Sprayed finish coats

Pass 4

Sprayed finish coats

Primer, then gloss coats laid on in thin passes until the surface reads as one poured skin.

The cure window

Pass 5

The cure window

The finish hardens on its own clock, 24 to 48 hours. We tape the door and leave the tub in peace.

Fresh caulk lines

Pass 6

Fresh caulk lines

Old caulk goes out with the old finish. A new mildew-resistant bead seals tub to tile on the way out.

Refinished, not reborn

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.

What the new surface is

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.

What it is not

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.

The habits that stretch it

  • Clean with liquid bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth; abrasive powders and scouring pads are the finish's only real predators.
  • Skip suction-cup mats, or at least lift them out after the bath. Trapped water works on any coating given enough weeks.
  • Fix a dripping faucet early. A steady drip wears a track in the gloss the way it would wear a stone.
  • Rinse and wipe after bath oils and hair dye; both stain slowly when left to sit.
  • Call us about the first chip, not the fifteenth. Spot repairs on our own finish are quick and cheap.

The whole job, measured in your time in Elaine

Two minutes

You dial the number

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 figure, spoken

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

The morning of

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

Repair, mask, spray

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

Cure and caulk

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.

Small job minimumaround $250The 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.

How we stand behind a coating

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.

Asked while we tape the paperwork

  1. How bad is the smell, honestly?

    Strong while spraying, gone surprisingly fast. The extractor vents the room to the outside for the whole job around Elaine, 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.

  2. When can we actually use the tub?

    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.

  3. Can the color change, or only refresh?

    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.

  4. Do fiberglass and acrylic tubs qualify?

    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.

  5. The tub was coated before and peeled. Now what?

    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.

  6. Is five years all I should hope for?

    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.
