Actually, looking at a dingy stained basin every single morning really ruins your early mood. Most folks think they gotta rip out the whole thing just to make the place look shiny again... Well, that crazy big demolition job costs a small fortune and creates tons of dusty trash in your home.
Instead of ripping out heavy porcelain units, our smart local crew simply fixes up the existing surface. This fast process glazes over all those nasty rust spots and deep scratches in just a few hours! Plus, you get to keep your original heavy duty cast iron basin while making it look totally brand new.
Honestly, saving money feels pretty awesome when you are updating an older home in Peach State territory. Our specialized coating seals everything tight so you never gotta worry about hidden leak damage behind your tile walls. That means your wallet stays happy and your modern washroom looks ready for fancy guests.
Obviously, buying a cheap plastic replacement unit from a big box store sounds like a decent plan at first. But, those flimsy thin modern shells flex under your feet and crack real fast after just a couple years! On top of that, hiring plumbers to move drain pipes ends up costing extra cash you did not budget for.
Besides, keeping your heavy vintage wash basin preserves that real solid feel underfoot while saving you huge headaches. Our strong chemical bonding agent sticks directly to old porcelain or fiberglass surfaces without peeling off later! You keep the original cozy style of your place while getting a smooth gloss finish that shines super bright.

First off, we scrub the entire basin area with powerful industrial acids to strip away tough soap scum. Next, my crew fills in all those deep chips and ugly cracks with super tough filler material! Then, we lay down a special liquid primer so the fresh topcoat sticks like glue forever.
Afterward, we spray multiple thick layers of high tech synthetic porcelain right over your old fixture. This awesome chemical finish cures super hard within a day to create a glossy protective barrier! Therefore, water glides right off the fresh non-porous material without leaving dark mineral stains behind.
Furthermore, taking care of this new silky coating requires zero harsh chemical cleaners or heavy scrubbing. A quick wipe with a soft sponge keeps the space looking like a high end luxury hotel room! That simple benefit saves you tons of time on weekend chores so you can relax more.

To be fair, cheap DIY store kits exist out there for brave home improvement fans trying to save pennies. However, those cheap box store paint cans usually peel off into nasty flakes after a few hot showers... Professional grade spray equipment applies thick uniform layers that sticky paint rollers can never match in real life.

Additionally, working across the local area near Robins Air Force Base lets us help hard working military families save big bucks.

We treat your personal property with total respect while keeping dirty tools neatly organized on heavy drop cloths! That honest service attitude builds real trust across our growing southern community every single day.
Sometimes, old cast iron tubs develop deep orange rust spots around the chrome drain opening. Water gets trapped under cracked factory glaze and slowly eats away at the heavy metal hidden underneath! We scrape away all that rust completely before laying down our tough moisture blocking primer barrier.
Similarly, old acrylic shells often get tiny spiderweb hairline cracks from heavy feet bouncing around over time. Our flexible repair resins bond deep inside those small gaps to stop structural cracks from spreading any further! This fix protects your subfloor timber from dangerous moisture rot that causes super expensive structural problems downstairs.
On top of that, outdated colors like ugly sixties pink or avocado green disappear under bright white gloss! You instantly modernize the whole look of your home without buying a single new piece of expensive furniture... That fast visual upgrade makes your home worth way more money if you ever decide to sell it.
Naturally, keeping your smooth renewed finish bright requires just a tiny bit of basic daily care. You just want to use simple non-abrasive liquid soaps instead of harsh scratchy powder scrubbers! Gentle cleaning products preserve that sleek sheen so your basin looks brand new for a whole decade or longer.
Likewise, dropping heavy metal tools or sharp objects inside the basin should always be avoided. If you ever drop a heavy jar by accident... our crew can easily patch that small spot without redoing the whole job! That simple repairability gives you total peace of mind for your busy household routine.
Finally, keeping your bath floor dry prevents slick slips while preserving the fresh bottom seal edge neatly. Our workers can even add an anti-slip textured grip directly into the liquid finish on request! That extra safety feature helps elderly family members or tiny kids stay completely safe during regular bath time.
Granted, updating one single fixture often inspires people to improve nearby wall tiles and counters too! Our special spray glaze sticks fantastically well to old vertical tile walls surrounding your bathing area... Spraying both the walls and the basin together creates a seamless modern look that feels super open and bright.
Consequently, you save even more money by bundling your tile coating project together with your bottom basin service!

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, 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.
Somewhere under that worn surface is the tub you chose. One day brings it back.
