A dull or chipped tub in Laguna 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.
Do you look at that stained washing basin and cringe every single morning? Well, replacing it completely drains your wallet faster than a pulled plug. Luckily, local professionals fix these worn-out wash stations right on site without tearing out your walls.
Truthfully, buying a brand-new soaking tub costs thousands of dollars in labor and demolition. Instead, our crew sprays a durable chemical coating that makes your old basin look brand new. This lets you save loads of cash while keeping your bathroom intact.
Indeed, living near the sandstone mesas brings unique weather and hard water minerals. Over time, calcium builds up and ruins the original factory finish of your basin. Consequently, scrubbing only makes the rough surface peel faster than a sunburnt nose.
First, we scrub the entire wash receptacle using heavy-duty cleaners to remove stubborn soap scum. Then, technicians etch the porcelain to ensure the liquid acrylic bonding agent sticks tightly. This gives you a rock-solid foundation that lasts for many years.
Next, we fill any nasty chips or stubborn rust spots with industrial waterproof epoxy paste. After sanding the patches flat, the area looks completely seamless under bright lighting. Which means guests will never guess your soaking basin had massive damage.
Finally, we apply several layers of high-gloss polyurethane coating using a specialized spray gun. Within hours, your dull basin transforms into a shiny masterpiece that rivals luxury hotels. Therefore, you get a gorgeous bathing spot without dealing with weeks of construction dust.
Nestled right here in Cibola County, homes deal with intense sun and unique mineral deposits. Because median household income hovers around forty-four thousand dollars, smart homeowners avoid pricey full remodels. Choosing our dependable resurfacing crew keeps your hard-earned money safely in your pocket.
Operating across ZIP code 87026, we see all kinds of vintage cast iron and fiberglass basins. Some historical homes feature rare tubs that nobody manufactures anymore today. Restoring them preserves your architectural charm while giving you a fresh surface.
Replacing a built-in washing basin requires sledgehammers, plumbers, and days of noisy workers inside your house. Alternatively, spraying takes just one single afternoon from start to finish. This saves you from living in a messy construction zone with zero functional plumbing.
| Project Factor | Total Replacement | Surface Restoration |
|---|---|---|
| Average Duration | One to Two Weeks | Four to Six Hours |
| Mess Level | High Dust and Debris | Zero Structural Waste |
| Price Range | Extremely Expensive | Budget Friendly |
Beyond saving time, keeping your existing fixture out of the local landfill helps our environment. Landfill space remains precious in New Mexico, so reusing what you already own makes total sense. Plus, you skip the heavy disposal fees charged by waste management companies.
Many folks worry the new coating will chip off after taking just a few baths. However, our advanced chemical bonding process creates a molecular grip that defies peeling. Naturally, you still need to avoid dropping heavy metal tools into the basin.
Another frequent question involves nasty chemical smells lingering inside your family home. Our industrial exhaust fans push all fumes outdoors while we spray the fixtures. Thus, your indoor air stays clean and safe for kids and pets alike.
Maintenance is surprisingly easy once the fresh glossy layer cures completely over the weekend. Avoid abrasive scouring pads because they scratch the pristine shine over time. Instead, simply wash the basin with mild dish soap and a soft sponge weekly.
Washing your refurbished bathing basin requires gentle cleaning products rather than harsh bleach chemicals. Soft liquid soaps keep the glossy finish gleaming like a brand-new showroom model. This ensures your investment continues looking stunning for well over a decade.
Furthermore, fixing minor leaky faucets immediately stops ugly mineral stains from forming again. Water dripping constantly will eventually erode even the toughest polyurethane topcoats we apply. Staying proactive protects your newly sprayed fixture from premature wear and tear.
Right here in Laguna, weather shifts can sometimes affect humidity levels during curing times. Our trained technicians monitor room temperatures closely to guarantee a flawless finish every single time. That attention to detail separates amateur handymen from true local professionals.

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 Laguna, 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.
