A dull or chipped tub in Happyland 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.

Let us help you fall in love with your home again by breathing new life into your worn-out fixtures.
To put it simply, we apply a high-tech liquid acrylic coating directly over your old porcelain or fiberglass. First, we deep clean the area with industrial-strength cleaners to strip away decades of soap scum, body oils, and hard water deposits. This critical preparation step ensures the new layer bonds permanently to the original material underneath.
After that, we repair any deep scratches, chips, or rust spots using a specialized waterproof filler. Then, we spray several coats of a state-of-the-art bonding agent followed by a gorgeous, high-gloss topcoat. The final result looks identical to a brand new pristine unit right from the showroom floor.
Now, you might worry about fumes or messy overspray during the application. Rest assured, our skilled technicians set up professional ventilation systems to draw all odors out of your house. We also mask off your entire bathroom with protective paper and plastic so not a single drop of product lands where it should not.
You have probably seen those cheap DIY kits at the local hardware store and thought about tackling this over the weekend. However, those store-bought epoxy paints usually peel off in giant sheets within a few months because they lack professional-grade bonding agents. Our commercial materials require certified training and heavy-duty respirators to apply safely and correctly.
On top of that, we use advanced chemical etching techniques that create a microscopic grip on the original porcelain. This ensures the new finish survives daily hot showers and heavy scrubbing for many years. When you hire us, you get a beautiful, long-lasting result that actually holds up to real life.

| Finish Quality | High-gloss, smooth showroom shine | Visible brush strokes and uneven texture |
| Prep Work | Acid etching and professional repair | Basic sanding with sandpaper |
| Warranty | Full guarantee against peeling | No warranty once mixed |
Living in this beautiful corner of New England means appreciating historic charm and cozy coastal vibes. But vintage homes often come with quirky plumbing and non-standard layouts that make modern renovations a nightmare. If you try to remove an old cast iron tub, you might have to cut it in half or break down your doorframes.
Fortunately, our mobile service brings the entire workshop directly to your doorstep in Happyland, Connecticut. We understand the unique architectural quirks of homes in this beautiful region, where the median household income is around seventy-two thousand dollars. With a local population of 4,726 residents, we take pride in helping our neighbors save money while upgrading their properties.
This convenient service allows you to preserve the character of your classic home without dealing with permit delays.

Imagine stepping into a bathroom that looks completely sanitized, bright, and inviting. A clean, glossy surface reflects light beautifully, which instantly makes your entire bathroom feel twice as large. This simple aesthetic upgrade boosts your mood every time you walk through the door.
Additionally, the new non-porous acrylic layer is incredibly easy to wipe down. Which means you can throw away those harsh abrasive cleaners that ruin your back and knees. A simple spray of mild soap and a quick wipe with a microfiber cloth is all it takes to keep it shining.
If you plan to sell your home soon, this affordable cosmetic fix offers an incredible return on investment. Buyers love seeing clean, updated bathrooms, and they will never guess you did not buy a brand new tub. This small investment can actually help you secure a higher selling price and close the deal much faster.
To keep your renewed surface looking incredible, you just need to follow a few simple guidelines. First, avoid using suction cup bath mats because they can pull at the newly cured material over time. Instead, we can apply a permanent, slip-resistant texture to the bottom of your tub during the spraying process.
Secondly, always stay away from bleach, steel wool, or abrasive scouring powders. These harsh chemicals will slowly dull the gorgeous shine and scratch the protective topcoat. Stick to gentle dish soaps or specialized foam cleaners to preserve that stunning wet-look reflection for decades.
We believe that home improvement should be stress-free, honest, and affordable for everyone. That is why we never use high-pressure sales tactics or hide extra fees in our pricing. When you contact us, we will answer all your questions and give you a straightforward, honest assessment of your bathroom fixtures.
Our friendly technician will inspect your surface, explain the process step-by-step, and provide a free quote tailored to your home. This means you can make an informed decision without any financial obligation or worry. We love transforming tired, ugly spaces into gorgeous sanctuaries that our clients can show off with pride.

We are ready to bring our expertise directly to your bathroom and deliver a flawless finish you will adore.
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 Happyland, 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.
