A dull or chipped tub in Fairview 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 tub looks pretty rough these days. Honestly, the dingy surface probably makes you want to close the bathroom door whenever guests come over to visit. Fortunately, you can completely restore that original shine without paying thousands of dollars for a messy contractor demolition.
Our local team specializes in giving worn-out bathroom fixtures a gorgeous new lease on life. By choosing a smart surface restoration instead of a full replacement, you save a mountain of cash. This process delivers a beautiful, glossy finish that makes your old cast iron or acrylic basin look brand new.
We believe in keeping things simple and affordable for our neighbors. If you want to see how easy this project can be, we are ready to visit your home and give you a free estimate today. There is absolutely no obligation, just honest advice from local folks who know how to fix up tired bathrooms.
Many homeowners assume that a stained, chipped, or outdated tub must go straight to the landfill. However, that assumption usually leads to massive plumbing bills and broken wall tiles. Our specialized process bonds a durable, high-gloss liquid acrylic coating directly onto your existing fixture right where it sits.
First, we meticulously clean the old surface with industrial-strength prep agents to strip away decades of soap scum and mineral deposits. After repairing any deep scratches or ugly chips, we apply a proprietary bonding agent. Finally, we spray on several coats of a high-tech protective finish that cures into a rock-hard barrier.
This method works wonders on various materials, including classic porcelain, heavy cast iron, fiberglass, and modern acrylic. You get to keep your sturdy old fixture while enjoying a sparkling clean look. Best of all, the entire process takes only a few hours instead of weeks of construction dust.
| Project Factor | Our Specialized Coating Process | Full Tub Replacement |
|---|---|---|
| Average Cost | Very budget-friendly and affordable | Extremely expensive with hidden fees |
| Time to Complete | Finished in a single afternoon | Several days to a week of construction |
| Mess and Stress | Virtually none, we clean up everything | Massive drywall dust, plaster, and noise |
| Expected Lifespan | Lasts for many years with proper care | Long-lasting but requires breaking walls |
As you can see from the comparison, choosing to renew your existing fixture is the most logical path forward. Why pay for a brand new basin when your current one has great bones? You get the exact same visual result for a fraction of the price.
Moreover, the environmental benefit of this service is a huge plus for our community. We keep heavy, bulky cast iron and fiberglass tubs out of our local landfills. It is a win-win situation for your wallet and the planet.

Imagine waking up tomorrow and stepping into a bright, clean, inviting shower space. You will no longer feel embarrassed by stubborn rust stains or peeling DIY paint kits that failed after three months. Our professional-grade materials stand up to daily use and hot water without peeling.
This upgrade also makes cleaning your bathroom incredibly easy. The new non-porous finish prevents mold, mildew, and dirt from trapping themselves in tiny microscopic pores. A quick wipe down with a mild liquid soap keeps the surface gleaming like glass.
If you plan to sell your home down the road, this quick face-lift adds instant appeal. Homebuyers pay close attention to bathrooms, and a sparkling tub can seal the deal. It is one of the smartest cosmetic upgrades you can make to your property.
We start by masking off your entire bathroom with protective paper and plastic sheeting to shield your vanity, floors, and walls. This protective step ensures that the specialized glaze only lands exactly where it is supposed to go. We take our time with prep work because that is the secret to a finish that lasts for years.
Next, we use a specialized chemical etching process on porcelain and cast iron to create a microscopically rough surface. This step allows the new coating to fuse permanently with the old substrate. We never skip this step because shortcuts always lead to peeling paint later on.
Once the bonding agent cures, we use professional spray equipment to apply the topcoats evenly. This technique eliminates brush marks and run lines, leaving a perfectly smooth finish. After a short curing period, we remove the masking tape, apply fresh silicone caulk around the edges, and your tub is ready to use.
Are you ready to say goodbye to that ugly, hard-to-clean bathroom fixture? You do not have to live with a stained or outdated space any longer. Let our experienced local team show you how easy and affordable a professional restoration can be.
We invite you to reach out to us today to request your completely free, no-pressure estimate. We will look at your project, answer all your questions, and provide a clear, upfront price. Take the first step toward a beautiful new bathroom and contact us right now!
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 Fairview, 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.
