A dull or chipped tub in Kings Grant 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.
You look at that dull bathroom fixture every single morning and feel a little bit of your soul escape. Maybe it has that weird mustard color from decades ago, or perhaps the surface feels like sandpaper against your skin.

By choosing to chemically bond a fresh, glossy new surface over your existing tub, you get a gorgeous finish without the mess of ripping out walls. Our team visits your home to deliver this exact transformation, which means you can finally stop hiding your bathroom from guests.

Most folks do not realize that their old cast iron or steel basins are built way better than the cheap plastic stuff you buy today. Because of this, tossing your durable old fixture into a landfill is actually a huge mistake. Our specialized process involves applying a premium liquid acrylic coating that fuses directly to the original material.
First, we meticulously clean the area using industrial-strength acid cleaners to strip away decades of soap scum and body oils. After repairing any deep chips or rust spots with waterproof fillers, we spray a proprietary bonding agent. This crucial step ensures the new topcoat sticks forever, which prevents peeling or bubbling down the road.
Finally, we apply several layers of high-gloss polyurethane acrylic using professional HVLP spray equipment. This advanced technique creates a non-porous finish that looks identical to brand-new porcelain. You get a dazzling, easy-to-clean surface that resists mold and mildew for many years to come.

Living in New Hanover County brings plenty of beautiful sunny days, but the humid salt air can really take a toll on home fixtures. Moisture constantly attacks older surfaces, which causes rust to form around your drain and overflow plate. Our heavy-duty synthetic porcelain coating seals those vulnerable areas completely, preventing future water damage.
Whether you reside near the peaceful parks or closer to the bustling local shopping districts, our mobile units travel directly to you. We understand the unique challenges of coastal homes, where sandy feet can easily scratch delicate fiberglass finishes. Our ultra-durable topcoat provides maximum scratch resistance, keeping your wash area looking pristine even after busy beach days.
We love serving this tight-knit community of 9,051 residents, where neighbors truly care about maintaining the character of their properties. With a local median household income of $56,448, smart spending is highly valued by everyone here. Our affordable alternative to replacement fits perfectly into your budget, allowing you to save money for other fun coastal adventures.
Naturally, you might worry about strong chemical odors lingering in your home during the spraying process. To tackle this, we set up powerful exhaust fans with flexible ductwork to vent all fumes directly outside through the nearest window. This professional ventilation system ensures your family and pets stay perfectly safe and comfortable while we work.
Regarding dust, our meticulous preparation phase actually captures almost all debris before we spray. We use specialized tack cloths to wipe down every single square inch of the workspace. This guarantees that no stray particles ruin the glassy smooth finish of your newly coated fixture.
Once we pack up our tools, taking care of your restored wash basin is remarkably simple. You must avoid abrasive scouring powders or harsh bleach products, because these can dull the beautiful shine over time. Instead, we recommend using mild dish soap or gentle foaming bathroom cleaners to keep things sparkling.
This simple cleaning routine saves you tons of physical labor every single week. Dirt and grime slip right off the non-porous surface, so you can stop scrubbing on your hands and knees. You get to spend your weekends relaxing instead of fighting stubborn tub stains.
If you live in the ZIP codes near the local bypass, our friendly technicians are ready to assist you.

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 Kings Grant, 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.
