A dull or chipped tub in Lake Lorraine 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.

We love helping people fall in love with their bathrooms all over again.
This simple upgrade will put a huge smile on your face every time you step into the shower.
First of all, removing an old fixture often requires breaking tiles and cutting through old plumbing lines.
That turns a simple weekend project into a massive construction zone.
On top of that, you might find hidden mold or water damage behind the walls which drains your wallet fast.
Instead of dealing with those nasty surprises, a professional surface refinishing job keeps your original setup completely intact.
This smart choice prevents unnecessary waste from piling up in our local landfills.
Actually, it is one of the most eco-friendly decisions you can make for your home improvement needs.
You also get to bypass the long wait times for contractors to finish a major renovation.
We complete the entire application process in just one single day.
Which means you can go back to your normal routine almost immediately.
To help you compare the two options, we built a quick breakdown of what you can expect:
| Project Aspect | Full Replacement | Surface Coating Upgrade |
|---|---|---|
| Average Duration | 3 to 7 days of loud construction | Only 4 to 6 hours of quiet work |
| Mess and Dust | Extremely high, plaster and tile debris | Very minimal, we mask the entire room |
| Total Cost | Often runs into thousands of dollars | A fraction of the price of buying new |
To start, we thoroughly clean the area using industrial-strength cleaners that strip away decades of soap scum and hard water deposits.
Any chips or deep scratches get filled with a tough waterproof resin.
This step ensures the new topcoat adheres perfectly to the old porcelain or fiberglass base.
Next, we apply a specialized bonding agent that acts like superglue between the old surface and the fresh coating.
Then, our technician sprays several thin layers of high-tech acrylic polymer.
This technique creates a deep, glossy shine that looks identical to brand new factory enamel.
Finally, we let the material cure completely so it hardens into a durable shell.
This new barrier resists scratches and makes cleaning your wash area incredibly simple.
You will not need to scrub with harsh abrasives ever again.

Our advanced system works beautifully on heavy cast iron models as well as modern fiberglass shower stalls.
Even outdated clawfoot tubs can get a second lease on life with our specialized coatings.
This versatility allows us to handle almost any residential bathroom setup you have.
If your shower pan is yellowed or cracked, we can fix that too.
We match colors perfectly to give your entire bathroom suite a clean, cohesive look.
Your guests will never guess that you did not buy a brand new unit.
First, you should always avoid using abrasive scrubbing pads or bleach on your newly sealed surface.
Simple dish soap and a soft microfiber cloth will do the trick perfectly.
This gentle routine protects the glossy luster and keeps the protective coat intact.
Additionally, try to fix leaky faucets quickly so constant water droplets do not wear down the seal.
Standing water can eventually dull even the toughest materials over a long period.
A little bit of preventative maintenance goes a very long way in preserving your investment.
We also suggest using a bath mat without suction cups on the bottom.
Suction cups can pull on the coating and cause premature peeling.
Instead, opt for a soft, rubber-backed mat that lays flat without sticking aggressively.
Do not spend another day staring at an ugly, discolored basin that embarrasses you when guests visit.
Our friendly team is standing by to give you the beautiful, clean space you deserve.

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 Lorraine, 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.
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.
