A dull or chipped tub in Greenville 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.

Our friendly team is ready to visit your home and give you a free quote today.
Maybe you are wondering how this wizardry actually works when we step into your bathroom. First, we thoroughly clean the surface with specialized acid cleaners to strip away decades of soap scum and hard water deposits. This steps prepares the old porcelain or fiberglass so the new materials can stick forever. After that, we patch up any nasty chips or deep cracks with a durable waterproof filler.
Next, we spray a high-tech bonding agent that acts like a super-strong glue for the final layers. This ensures the shiny topcoat will never peel or bubble up when you take a hot shower. Once we apply the acrylic polyurethane coating, your old basin looks exactly like a brand-new showroom piece. You get the same luxury feel as a costly replacement but at a tiny fraction of the price.
| Feature of the Process | Direct Benefit for You |
|---|---|
| No fixture removal needed | Saves your walls and tile from damage |
| Advanced acrylic coatings | Gives a brilliant shine that lasts for years |
| Completed in one day | You can use your shower again very quickly |
Now, let us talk about the local area where we do most of our work. We proudly serve the historic community of Greenville, Mississippi, which has a population of about 31,319 hard-working residents. Because the median household income here is around $29,501, saving money on home renovations is extremely important for our neighbors. We regularly travel across local ZIP codes like 38701, 38702, 38703, and 38704 to help families get the beautiful home they deserve.
If you think about tearing out an old cast iron tub, you must consider the hidden costs that contractors never tell you about. For example, the heavy old basin might not even fit through your narrow bathroom door frame. Which means the workers will have to smash it into pieces with a sledgehammer or cut it up. That process creates a mountain of sharp debris and fine dust that gets all over your clean carpets.
Besides that mess, you will need to hire an expensive plumber to reconnect the drain pipes and valves. These extra tradesmen can easily double your initial budget before the job is even halfway done. However, our specialized restoration technique keeps your existing layout completely intact while making the fixture look pristine. You avoid the headache of permit offices and noisy construction crews invading your private space.
This approach also helps the environment by keeping heavy materials out of our local landfills. Many of those old-school fixtures are made of incredibly sturdy cast iron that can last for another century. By choosing to restore rather than discard, you preserve the high-quality craftsmanship of the past while enjoying a clean surface. Our local pros are always happy to stop by and assess your project with a free estimate.
Perhaps your bathroom features a classic clawfoot tub, or maybe it has a modern fiberglass shower stall. Luckily, our advanced chemical coatings bond perfectly to almost any material found in residential bathrooms. This includes traditional porcelain, pressed steel, acrylic, and even outdated cultured marble vanity tops. We can match almost any color scheme you want, from crisp modern white to warm almond tones.
To give you a better idea of what we handle, here is a quick list of common items we restore:
Which means you do not have to live with that ugly 1970s avocado green or dusty pink tile anymore. We can spray the entire surround along with the tub to create a seamless, modern look. This creates a uniform finish that is incredibly easy to wipe clean after a busy week. You will spend less time scrubbing grout lines with harsh chemicals and more time relaxing in your beautiful home.
After we finish applying the fresh coat, you will want to keep it looking shiny for as long as possible. Fortunately, caring for a refinished basin is actually much easier than dealing with old, porous porcelain. Because the new non-porous barrier resists dirt and soap residue, a gentle wipe down is usually all it takes. You must avoid abrasive cleaners like steel wool or gritty powders that can dull the glossy finish over time.
Instead, we recommend using mild dish soap or a friendly spray cleaner that does not contain bleach. This simple habit protects the integrity of the topcoat so it stays bright and reflective for a decade. We also advise against leaving wet washcloths or heavy shampoo bottles sitting on the rim for weeks. These small precautions ensure your bathroom looks spectacular every single day without any stressful upkeep.
Sometimes, pets with sharp claws can accidentally scratch the bottom if you wash them in the tub. If that happens, do not panic because minor touch-ups are very easy to perform. We always stand behind our quality craftsmanship and love helping our local customers solve these little issues. You can rest easy knowing that our friendly team is just a quick phone call away whenever you need us.
By now, you probably realize that you do not have to spend a fortune to get the bathroom of your dreams. Our affordable refinishing service offers a smart, fast, and gorgeous alternative to traditional remodeling. We take immense pride in helping our neighbors update their homes without breaking the bank or causing massive household disruptions. Our local experts are ready to show you how easy this transformation can be.

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 Greenville, 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.
