A dull or chipped tub in Horizon West 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.
Maybe your old tub looks like a relic from the past with its faded color and scratchy surface. Surface restoration can bring back that shiny, clean look without the massive cost of a full bathroom remodel. Fortunately, you can get a free quote today to transform your bathroom instantly.
This simple process saves you thousands of dollars compared to ripping out plumbing and tile. Because of this, smart homeowners choose to update their existing fixtures instead of buying new ones. You will love how clean and bright your bathroom feels after we finish our magic.
First, we chemically clean the old surface to remove decades of soap scum and hard water deposits. This step is crucial because the new coating needs a perfectly clean foundation to stick to. If we skip this, the new finish could peel off like a bad sunburn after just a few weeks.
Next, we repair any deep chips or ugly rust spots using a special polyester filler. This material hardens quickly and allows us to sand it completely flat. As a result, the damaged areas disappear under the new layers, leaving a seamless and smooth surface behind.
Then, we apply a proprietary bonding agent that chemically fuses the new finish to the old porcelain or fiberglass. This high-tech primer acts like a super-glue for the topcoat. After that, we spray multiple layers of a durable acrylic urethane coating using professional spray equipment.
| Project Phase | What We Do | Benefit to You |
|---|---|---|
| Preparation | Deep acid wash and sanding | Ensures the new finish sticks forever |
| Repair Work | Filling chips and rust holes | Creates a perfectly smooth surface |
| Topcoat Application | Spraying premium acrylic urethane | Delivers a high-gloss, brand-new look |
Think about the sheer mess of tearing out a heavy cast iron tub from your wall. You would have to demolish the surrounding tile, deal with dusty drywall, and hire an expensive plumber. On top of that, your bathroom becomes a noisy construction zone for at least a week.
By choosing our specialized restoration service, you avoid all that chaotic demolition drama. We complete the entire job in just a few hours, meaning you can use your shower the very next day. This speed lets you get back to your normal daily routine without any major disruptions.
Additionally, you save a mountain of cash that you can spend on other home improvement projects. Replacing a tub often snowballs into a multi-thousand dollar headache once you open up the walls. Our affordable alternative gives you the exact same visual result for a tiny fraction of the price.
Whether you own a classic cast iron clawfoot tub or a modern fiberglass shower stall, we can handle it. Our premium coatings adhere beautifully to porcelain, acrylic, cultured marble, and even ceramic tile walls. This versatility means you can refresh your entire bath surround at the same time for a cohesive look.
Perhaps you hate the outdated pink or avocado green color that was popular decades ago. We can easily change that ugly color to a bright, modern white or a soft almond tone. This simple change instantly modernizes your space and makes the whole room feel much larger and cleaner.
Furthermore, we can add a slip-resistant texture to the bottom of your tub during the application process. This safety feature helps prevent dangerous slips and falls without the need for ugly, dirty rubber mats. You get a sleek look while keeping your family safe during shower time.

Our local team knows the specific home styles found throughout Horizon West, Florida, where the population has boomed to 32,530 residents. We treat your home with the utmost respect and clean up every bit of mess before we leave.
Since the median household income here sits at $99,823, local homeowners appreciate smart investments that boost property value. Improving your bathroom fixtures is one of the most cost-effective ways to impress potential buyers if you ever decide to sell. We proudly serve all neighborhoods within our local ZIP codes with prompt, reliable scheduling.
Because our humid climate can sometimes encourage mold growth in old chips and cracks, sealing those areas is vital. Our smooth, non-porous finish prevents mold and mildew from taking root in your tub. This makes your weekly bathroom cleaning chore incredibly easy and fast.
Now, you might see cheap DIY kits at your local hardware store and think about trying it yourself. Honestly, those brush-on paint kits rarely look good and usually start peeling within a few months. They lack the professional etching acids and high-powered spray guns needed for a glass-like finish.
Without proper ventilation equipment, the fumes from those store-bought kits can also be incredibly overwhelming and dangerous. We use industrial exhaust fans and safety gear to keep your home safe and odor-free during the process. This professional approach guarantees a flawless, long-lasting result that you simply cannot get with a brush.
If you make a mistake with a DIY kit, removing that cured paint is an absolute nightmare. Hiring us from the start ensures the job gets done right the first time around. You save yourself the physical exhaustion and the frustration of a ruined DIY project.
Once we complete the transformation, caring for your shiny new surface is incredibly simple. You must avoid abrasive cleaners like bleach powders or scratchy green scrubbing pads, which can dull the gloss. Instead, use mild dish soap or gentle foaming bathroom cleaners to wipe away dirt effortlessly.
This easy maintenance routine keeps your tub looking brand new for up to ten to fifteen years. Which means you will spend less time scrubbing on your hands and knees and more time relaxing. It is a win-win situation for your weekend plans and your peace of mind.
We also recommend keeping your leaky faucets fixed because constant dripping can wear down any finish over time. Simple care steps ensure your investment remains beautiful and bright for a very long time. We always share these helpful tips with you before we pack up our tools.
Are you ready to stop squinting at those ugly stains and chips every time you take a shower? Contact us today to request your completely free, no-obligation estimate right at your home. We will look at your tub, explain our process, and give you an honest price with no hidden fees.
Our friendly team loves helping neighbors fall in love with their homes all over again. Let us handle the hard work while you sit back and think about how great your refreshed bathroom will look. Reach out now and take the first step toward a brighter, cleaner home today!
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 Horizon West, 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.
