A dull or chipped tub in Lafayette 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 you think replacing your faded basin is the only real path toward a purer home. However, removing an existing unit often damages adjacent walls and expensive floorboards down below.

Then, we blow away every speck of dust with powerful air machines to make sure it is super clean. After completing that prep work, we spray multiple liquid layers of high performance synthetic acrylic coatings using professional equipment. This creates a brilliant mirror finish that looks exactly like a brand new unit fresh off the factory floor. Ultimately, you get elite level supreme charm for a tiny fraction of normal replacement prices!

Living down in East Alabama means enjoying rich historical roots and lovely quiet neighborhood streets. In fact, our awesome city serves as the county seat of Chambers County with a proud population around 3,003 folks. Many beautiful homes located near ZIP code 36862 feature amazing vintage cast iron soaking tubs built way back in the day. Throwing away those solid antique treasures would be an absolute tragedy for local history.
Instead, restoring those heavy classic fixtures preserves original Southern architecture while boosting overall real estate value. With a median household income hovering around thirty-two thousand dollars, spending wise money makes total financial sense for local families. Why waste thousands on cheap modern plastic tubs when your real historic iron basin can shine like new? Indeed, refinishing keeps your original heavy quality intact while drastically upgrading visual style.
Furthermore, our dedicated team lives right down the road from you and understands local climate conditions. High Southern humidity can mess up cheap paint jobs if the installer does not know what they are doing. Fortunately, our special formula cures fully regardless of damp air or summer heat waves outside. So reach out today for a instant free estimate tailored directly to your specific home layout!
Now, you might see some cheap DIY kits sitting on shelves at the big box store nearby. Honestly, those cheap roll-on paint packages usually start peeling off in huge ugly sheets after just a few weeks. They lack industrial grade primers, so warm bath water easily creeps right under the fresh coat. Consequently, you end up wasting your hard earned dollars and making a huge tacky mess on your hands.
Likewise, amateur handymen often skip the crucial acid etching step because it takes extra effort and patience. Without that deep chemical key, fresh spray layers simply cannot lock onto old shiny enamel porcelain surfaces. Eventually, routine scrub brushes will rip that weak top layer clean off your tub. So hiring genuine trained local workers guarantees you avoid those painful expensive mistakes completely.
Besides that, poor room ventilation during application can leave bad chemical fumes lingering inside your home for days. Our crew uses high powered exhaust fans that vent all vapors safely out the window while we work. Which means your family stays totally comfortable and safe throughout the entire short restoration process. So trust our proven methods and grab your free project estimate right away!
Once our skilled techs finish spraying your gleaming new layer, keeping it shiny requires almost zero hard effort. You just want to throw away those harsh abrasive scouring powders that scratch soft surfaces over time. Instead, use mild liquid soaps or simple dish detergent mixed with warm tap water to wash away dirt. That gentle routine keeps the intense shine glowing bright for up to fifteen happy years!
Additionally, fix any dripping faucets right away so constant water streams do not wear down the drain coating. Leaving heavy wet bath mats resting inside the basin overnight can also trap moisture underneath unnecessary. Simply hanging your bath mat over the towel rack lets the fresh synthetic surface dry out completely every night. Consequently, your bathroom keeps looking like a high end luxury hotel space forever.
Also, remember that taking care of your home upgrades your personal daily mood in a big way. Starting your busy morning in a squeaky clean spotless washroom puts a bright smile on your face before work. Ultimately, you deserve to feel proud whenever guests use your hallway guest bathroom during holiday parties. So do not wait another single day to transform your home!

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 Lafayette, 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.

The technician who picks up when you call works these streets, so the ledger below is home turf rather than trivia.
Somewhere under that worn surface is the tub you chose. One day brings it back.
