A dull or chipped tub in Frackville 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.

When you start researching bathroom renovations, the sheer volume of tasks can feel completely overwhelming. Actually, removing a cast iron or steel tub often requires cutting it into pieces and destroying the surrounding drywall. Our specialized process bypasses all that destruction by renewing the existing material right where it sits.
This clever approach preserves your original high-quality fixture while giving it a gorgeous, glossy modern finish. On top of that, you avoid the long waiting times associated with ordering new tubs and scheduling multiple tradespeople. We finish most of our projects in less than a single day so your life gets back to normal quickly.
Consider the massive difference in cleanup too, since we do not create piles of heavy plaster and broken tiles. Which means you will not have to pay for a big dumpster rental or spend hours sweeping up fine white dust. You get a sparkling, clean result with almost no effort on your part.
First, we carefully mask off your entire bathroom with protective sheets to keep your floors and walls safe. After that, we set up a powerful ventilation fan to pull any odors and overspray safely out of your home. This setup ensures your household stays comfortable and clean while we work our magic.
Next, we use specialized cleaning agents to strip away decades of soap scum, body oils, and mineral deposits. Then, we repair any deep scratches, chips, or rust spots using high-strength fillers that bond permanently to the old surface. This crucial step creates a perfectly smooth foundation for the new layers to adhere to.
Once the prep work is complete, we apply a proprietary bonding agent followed by several coats of a high-tech acrylic coating. Finally, we let it cure into a rock-hard shell that looks just like expensive factory porcelain. You get a beautiful, durable surface that stands up to daily use and looks incredibly clean.

Living in a cozy borough of about 3,668 people means appreciating quality craftsmanship and smart spending. Many homes in the local 17931 and 17932 ZIP codes feature sturdy, vintage fixtures that are built much better than modern plastic replacements. Our service allows you to keep that heavy-duty quality while upgrading the look to match modern design trends.
With a median household income of $53,944, spending five thousand dollars on a bathroom remodel just does not make sense. Our affordable surface renewal process fits easily into any budget while still delivering high-end visual results. You get to enjoy a luxurious bathing experience without draining your hard-earned savings account.
Because we live and work right here in Pennsylvania, we understand the unique character of local homes. We treat your property with the exact same respect we would show to our own family members. You can trust our crew to show up on time, work hard, and leave your home spotless.
To keep your renewed tub looking spectacular, you only need to make a few simple changes to your cleaning routine. For starters, you must avoid abrasive scrubbing powders and harsh bleach products that can dull the shiny finish over time. Instead, use mild dish soap or gentle liquid cleaners along with a soft sponge to wipe away dirt.
This easy maintenance routine saves you time and keeps your bathroom smelling fresh without chemical fumes. Another helpful tip is to avoid using suction-cup bathmats, which can trap water and weaken the bond of the new coating. We can even apply a built-in slip-resistant texture to the bottom of your tub during our process for added safety.
By following these basic guidelines, your beautiful new surface will easily last for ten to fifteen years. This long-term durability means you get maximum value out of every dollar you invest in your home. You will smile every time you walk past your bathroom and see that bright, clean shine.

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 Frackville, 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.
