Let us explore how this clever renovation secret saves your wallet and your sanity.

Why Swapping Your Tub Is Usually a Huge Mistake

Many folks assume that buying a new basin is the easiest way to fix an ugly bathroom.
However, they quickly realize that the actual purchase price of the new unit is only a small fraction of the total bill.
Once you factor in the cost of hiring plumbers, tearing out old tile, and hauling away heavy trash, your bank account takes a massive hit.

On top of the crazy expenses, you might lose access to your only bathroom for a week or more.
Imagine dealing with dusty hallways, loud construction noise, and strangers walking through your home for days on end.
Choosing our surface-renewing service avoids all that stress because we complete the entire job in less than a single day.

To make matters worse, modern cheap replacement tubs are often flimsy and lack the solid feel of older fixtures.
Keeping your heavy, durable original tub while upgrading its outer layer is simply the smartest move you can make.
Our high-tech coatings bond directly to your existing structure to deliver a rock-solid surface that shines like new glass.

The Magic Behind Our Surface Restoration Process

First, we carefully prepare the entire work area to protect your floors, walls, and vanity from any overspray.
Then, our technician uses specialized cleaning agents to strip away decades of soap scum, body oils, and hard water deposits.
This deep cleaning step is absolutely vital because the new protective layer needs a pristine foundation to stick to.

Next, we repair any deep scratches, ugly chips, or rust spots that have developed over the years.
We apply a proprietary bonding agent that chemically fuses the new coating to the old porcelain or fiberglass.
Finally, we spray multiple layers of an incredibly durable acrylic urethane topcoat using advanced HVLP spray equipment.

This painstaking method ensures a uniform thickness that resists peeling and cracking for many years to come.
Which means you get a gorgeous, easy-to-clean wash basin that looks like it came straight from a showroom floor.
You will love how water beads up on the fresh surface, making weekly bathroom chores a total breeze.

How to Maintain Your Freshly Coated Surface

Once we finish our work, keeping your restored fixture looking beautiful is incredibly simple.
You must avoid using abrasive powder cleansers, steel wool, or harsh scrubbing pads that can scratch the smooth finish.
Instead, we recommend using mild, non-abrasive liquid soaps and a soft microfiber cloth or sponge for your regular cleaning.

Additionally, always make sure your dripping faucets are fully repaired, as constant water drips can damage any finish over time.
Do not leave wet bath mats sitting inside the basin, because trapped moisture can eventually weaken the chemical bond.
Following these easy guidelines will keep your bathroom looking absolutely stunning and bright for up to a decade.

Our customers are always amazed at how much brighter their entire bathroom feels once the main fixture is sparkling white again.
It makes the whole room feel larger, cleaner, and far more inviting for family members and weekend guests alike.

Prep decides everything in Lakeshore

Three quiet stages carry the whole result. They are also the ones nobody sees in the after photo.

The surface earns the coating

Stage 1 of 3

The surface earns the coating

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.

Damage is filled, not painted over

Stage 2 of 3

Damage is filled, not painted over

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.

A controlled spray, not a brush

Stage 3 of 3

A controlled spray, not a brush

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.

Reglaze, liner or new tub in Lakeshore

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.

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.

Six passes over one bathtub in Lakeshore

Deep clean and etch

Pass 1

Deep clean and etch

Soap scum, silicone and old wax stripped, then the surface etched or bonded so the coating can bite.

Chip and rust repair

Pass 2

Chip and rust repair

Every ding ground out, filled and sanded flush. The repairs disappear under the coating instead of through it.

Masking the room

Pass 3

Masking the room

Tile, faucet, floor and glass papered off. Overspray lands on masking paper, never on grout or chrome.

Sprayed finish coats

Pass 4

Sprayed finish coats

Primer, then gloss coats laid on in thin passes until the surface reads as one poured skin.

The cure window

Pass 5

The cure window

The finish hardens on its own clock, 24 to 48 hours. We tape the door and leave the tub in peace.

Fresh caulk lines

Pass 6

Fresh caulk lines

Old caulk goes out with the old finish. A new mildew-resistant bead seals tub to tile on the way out.

Refinished, not reborn

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.

What the new surface is

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.

What it is not

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.

The habits that stretch it

  • Clean with liquid bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth; abrasive powders and scouring pads are the finish's only real predators.
  • Skip suction-cup mats, or at least lift them out after the bath. Trapped water works on any coating given enough weeks.
  • Fix a dripping faucet early. A steady drip wears a track in the gloss the way it would wear a stone.
  • Rinse and wipe after bath oils and hair dye; both stain slowly when left to sit.
  • Call us about the first chip, not the fifteenth. Spot repairs on our own finish are quick and cheap.

The whole job, measured in your time in Lakeshore

Two minutes

You dial the number

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 figure, spoken

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

The morning of

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

Repair, mask, spray

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

Cure and caulk

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 the work runs in Lakeshore

What we quoteTypical rangeReading the number
Standard bathtub, reglazed complete$350 - $800Clean, etch, repairs, sprayed gloss and fresh caulk.
Chip or rust repair alone$150 - $300When the finish is sound and only one wound needs closing.

Caulk renewal with the job$90 - $180Old bead cut out, mildew-resistant line laid in.
Small job minimumaround $250The 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.

How we stand behind a coating

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.

Asked while we tape the paperwork

  1. How bad is the smell, honestly?

    Strong while spraying, gone surprisingly fast. The extractor vents the room to the outside for the whole job around Lakeshore, 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.

  2. When can we actually use the tub?

    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.

  3. Can the color change, or only refresh?

    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.

  4. Do fiberglass and acrylic tubs qualify?

    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.

  5. The tub was coated before and peeled. Now what?

    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.

  6. Is five years all I should hope for?

    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.
