A dull or chipped tub in Fearrington Village 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.
You can transform your worn out wash basin into a glowing centerpiece today. Many homeowners think they need to rip out their entire bathing fixture when the surface gets stained or scratched. This smart local service restores the original shine of your tub right in your home.
By choosing this quick update you save thousands of dollars on plumbing bills. It is amazing how a fresh coating makes the whole room look brand new. You do not have to live with that ugly discoloration any longer.
Our friendly local team loves helping folks get that clean feeling back in their bathrooms. We come straight to your door to give you a free estimate on the spot. You will see how simple it is to upgrade your home.
To understand why this method works so well you should know how we apply the new finish. First we deep clean the old porcelain or fiberglass to remove years of soap scum and oil. This step is super important because the new layers will not stick to a dirty surface.
After that we repair any deep chips or annoying cracks that make your tub look old. We use special filler materials that cure quickly to create a completely flat area. You will not even remember where the damaged spots used to be.
Next we spray a high tech bonding agent that fuses the old material with the new topcoat. This chemical bond ensures that your new surface will not peel off when you take hot baths. It acts like superglue for your brand new glossy finish.
Finally we apply several thin layers of an acrylic polyurethane coating using a professional spray gun. This material mimics the original factory glaze perfectly. Your tub gets a brilliant shine that looks just like a costly replacement.
This whole project takes only a few hours instead of weeks of dusty construction. You can start using your beautiful shower again after just twenty-four hours of drying time. It is the easiest remodeling trick you will ever find.
If you decide to replace the entire unit you will quickly run into unexpected costs. Demolition often damages the surrounding tiles which means you have to buy new ones. This simple replacement suddenly turns into a massive construction zone.
On top of that you have to hire an expensive plumber to disconnect and reconnect the pipes. Older plumbing systems do not always fit new tub models. You might end up paying to replace pipes behind the wall too.
Which means you could be without a working bathroom for a week or more. That is a huge hassle if you only have one bathroom in your house. Our process avoids all of this mess and keeps your daily routine running smoothly.
Consider the comparison of these two options to see how much you actually save.
| Project Factor | Full Replacement | Our Coating Service |
|---|---|---|
| Total Cost | Very High (Thousands) | Super Affordable |
| Time to Complete | One to Two Weeks | Four to Six Hours |
| Mess and Dust | Extremely High | Very Minimal |
| Plumbing Changes | Usually Required | None Needed |
Saving money is obviously the biggest reason why people choose this smart alternative. You get to keep your hard earned cash for other fun home improvement projects. It is a fantastic way to stretch your remodeling budget further.
This process also lets you keep your high quality antique cast iron tub. Older fixtures were built to last and have a unique character that new plastic models lack. You preserve the historic charm of your home while getting a clean surface.
Another awesome benefit is how easy the new surface is to clean. The fresh coating seals up all those microscopic pores that trap dirt and grime. You only need a mild soap and a soft sponge to keep it sparkling.
You also do your part for the environment by keeping heavy waste out of local landfills. Throwing away a giant metal tub is a shame when it still has good bones. We help you go green while keeping your home looking pristine.

We believe in absolute honesty which is why our estimates are completely free and transparent. There are never any hidden fees or surprise charges when we finish the job. You get a clear price upfront so you can make the best choice.
Once we finish our work you will want to protect your beautiful new finish. Avoiding abrasive chemical cleaners is the most important rule to remember. Harsh scrubbing powders can dull the glossy shine over time.
Instead you should use liquid dish soap or gentle bathroom sprays. These soft cleaners melt away soap residue without scratching the delicate topcoat. Your tub will stay bright and shiny for many years to come.
We also suggest avoiding bath mats with suction cups on the bottom. These plastic cups can pull on the new coating and cause it to lift up. We can apply a permanent non-slip texture to the bottom of the tub instead.
Taking care of your upgraded fixture is truly a breeze when you follow these simple tips. You get the look of a luxury bathroom without any of the high maintenance stress. It is a win for your wallet and your peace of mind.

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 Fearrington Village, 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.
Zoom for the lay of the land; the link lists further down name every community the van reaches from here.
The technician who picks up when you call works these streets, so the ledger below is home turf rather than trivia.
Somewhere under that worn surface is the tub you chose. One day brings it back.
