A dull or chipped tub in Evans 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.
Maybe your old tub looks like it survived a prehistoric war. You stare at those ugly stains every single morning and wonder if you need to bust out a sledgehammer. Fortunately, a much simpler option exists to restore that glassy, factory-fresh shine to your washing basin. Our local team comes right to your home to breathe new life into worn-out bathroom fixtures. This means you get to skip the dusty, expensive nightmare of a full remodel. We will gladly visit your property to look at the job and hand you a free project estimate today.
Actually, many homeowners believe that replacing a chipped or faded basin is the only way to get a clean look again. That is a huge misconception that ends up draining bank accounts. New plumbing installations often require tearing out walls and hiring expensive plumbers. By choosing to chemically resurface the existing material instead, you save thousands of dollars. On top of that, you get to keep your heavy, durable original tub. This smart choice preserves the classic character of your home while updating the style.
Think about how nice it will feel to step into a sparkling, bright white wash basin. You will no longer have to scrub endlessly at stubborn rust rings or peeling coatings. Our specialized chemical bonding process creates a completely sealed, ultra-smooth surface that resists dirt. This helps you clean the whole bathroom in just a couple of minutes. Because we believe in honest work, we never hide fees or surprise you with extra costs.
To help you compare your options, we put together a simple breakdown of how this smart update matches up against a total replacement.
| Factor | Surface Refinishing | Full Replacement |
|---|---|---|
| Average Cost | Very affordable and budget-friendly | Extremely expensive with hidden fees |
| Time to Complete | Done in a single afternoon | Several days or weeks of mess |
| Durability | Lasts for many years with proper care | Dependant on new plumbing quality |
First, we meticulously clean the entire area to remove decades of soap scum, body oils, and old mineral deposits. This critical step ensures that our new high-tech coatings stick perfectly to the old porcelain or fiberglass. If we skip this part, the new finish might bubble up later. Which means we take our sweet time getting the prep work absolutely flawless. You can trust our local crew to treat your home with the utmost respect.
Next, we repair any deep chips, scratches, or rusty spots using a tough waterproof filler. After sanding those repairs completely flat, we apply a proprietary bonding agent. This chemical primer acts like superglue between the old surface and the fresh topcoat. Then, we spray several layers of a high-performance acrylic polymer coating over the fixture. This advanced material cures into an incredibly hard, glossy shell that looks exactly like brand-new porcelain.
Now, you might worry about strong chemical smells lingering in your home for weeks. To solve this, we use heavy-duty exhaust fans to pull any fumes directly outside during the application. This keeps your indoor air clean and safe for your family and pets. Once we finish spraying, the surface needs just a bit of time to cure. Soon after, you can peel off the masking tape and enjoy your beautiful bathroom.
Maybe you have an ancient cast iron clawfoot tub that has seen better days. These heavy relics are incredibly well-made, so throwing them away is a real shame. Our restoration process works wonders on cast iron, steel, and modern fiberglass shower units alike. This lets you preserve those cool vintage vibes while enjoying a clean, hygienic surface. We can even update the color of your wall tiles to match the fresh look.
Sometimes, homeowners worry that their fiberglass units are too cracked or flimsy to salvage. However, we can actually reinforce weak, flexing bottoms before we apply the shiny new coating. This extra step adds structural strength so the floor of your shower feels solid under your feet. Which means you do not have to worry about leaks developing down the road. We love solving these tricky bathroom problems for our neighbors.

Living in this beautiful part of Pennsylvania (PA) means dealing with cold winters and humid summers. These weather shifts can cause building materials to expand and contract over time.

When you choose a local contractor, you get personalized service that big national corporations cannot match.

If you ever have a question, we are just a quick phone call away. You will always speak to a real person who wants to help.
To keep your newly glazed fixture looking pristine, you need to throw away those harsh abrasive cleaners. Bleach, steel wool, and gritty scrubbing powders will dull the shiny finish over time. Instead, you should use mild dish soap or a gentle spray cleaner and a soft sponge. This simple routine protects the glossy barrier and keeps it shining like a mirror. A little bit of care goes an incredibly long way.
Another great tip is to avoid leaving wet bottles of shampoo or soap sitting directly on the ledge. Over time, standing water can trap minerals and create dull spots on the new surface. Using a hanging shower organizer keeps your bottles dry and your tub looking fantastic. These minor adjustments help ensure your investment lasts for up to a decade or even longer. We always share these helpful tips with you before we leave the job site.

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 Evans, 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.
