A dull or chipped tub in Lake City 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 probably stare at those chipped, stained, or dated bathroom basins every morning while brushing your teeth. Maybe you think tearing out the whole thing is the only way to get a fresh look in your home.
Actually, there is a much smarter and cheaper way to make your bathroom look brand new again without the massive mess of a total remodel. Dealing with surface imperfections is our specialty, and we bring a high level of ease to your space.
Think of this as giving your old, worn-out basin a complete facelift using industrial-grade resins and advanced bonding agents. We come to your property in Hinsdale County to strip away the old finish and prep the surface for a brand new coat.
Since our work takes place right in your home, you avoid the headache of demolition and plumbing costs. This means you get a smooth, durable, and shiny finish that feels just as good as a brand new store-bought model.
Replacing a heavy, vintage cast iron tub is a nightmare that involves ripping out walls, floors, and pipes. Even if you live in the beautiful 81235 ZIP code area, you likely prefer to keep your hard-earned money in your pocket.
Instead of spending weeks dealing with dust and construction workers, we usually finish the whole project in just one day. You gain a beautiful bathroom upgrade that fits your budget perfectly while keeping the original structure intact.
When we apply these specialized coatings, we create a non-porous layer that actually resists mildew and grime better than the original factory surface. This gives you a much simpler cleaning routine every single week without using harsh chemicals.
You can stop scrubbing for hours because the new finish makes it simple to wipe away soap scum. Having a surface that stays pristine longer allows you to spend your time enjoying the scenic outdoors instead of cleaning bathrooms.
Whether your tub is a funky color from the past or just worn down from years of heavy use, we can fix it. Even if the surface feels rough to the touch, our sanding process levels everything out perfectly.
We treat fiberglass, porcelain, and acrylic surfaces with the same attention to detail to ensure a lasting bond. You just need to ensure the structure itself is solid and free from major cracks that go all the way through.
Quality matters, and we never cut corners when it comes to the ventilation or the prep work involved. We use high-powered fans to keep your air clear while we spray the new finish onto your tub surfaces.
This meticulous approach guarantees that the coating adheres perfectly, preventing peeling or bubbling later on down the road. You get a professional result that stands up to daily use for many years to come.
With the local median household income being what it is, saving money on home improvements is always a smart move. You avoid the thousands of dollars required for new plumbing fixtures, floor repairs, and tile work.
Choosing to restore what you already own is not just better for your wallet, but also better for the planet. You keep old materials out of the landfill while gaining a fresh and modern aesthetic for your private oasis.
First, we arrive at your house to assess the condition of your existing fixtures and explain the game plan. We protect your surrounding walls and floors with high-quality masking film to keep everything clean and safe.
Then, we carefully clean the surface to remove soap scum, mineral deposits, and body oils that accumulate over time. This crucial step lets the new bonding agents grab onto the substrate, ensuring your new finish stays put forever.
You might worry about the smell or the durability of the chemicals we bring into your bathroom. Rest assured that we use advanced ventilation systems that pull fumes out of your windows while we work.
Once the surface cures, it is completely safe for your whole family and ready for daily use. You get a surface that is hard, glossy, and resistant to the bumps and bruises of everyday life.

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 Lake City, 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.
