A dull or chipped tub in Lambs 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.
Having a ratty old basin in your bathroom really ruins your morning mood. Fortunately you can restore that gross worn surface to shiny perfection without ripping out your entire plumbing setup. Getting a free estimate today will show you just how fast your home can feel modern again.
Every single morning starts inside that room. Look at those dingy stains down by the drain. They just won't scrub off anymore! Honestly it drives most homeowners completely crazy.
Years of harsh cleaning chemicals take a total toll. Eventually the smooth glassy top coat just wears away completely. After that happens dirt gets trapped inside tiny porous holes.
Water sits in those little rough spots forever. Pretty soon you have ugly yellowed patches that look super filthy. Naturally you feel embarrassed whenever guests ask to use your restroom.
Replacing a heavy cast iron tub costs an absolute fortune. On top of that contractors have to smash up your custom tile wall. Consequently the mess lasts for weeks and leaves dust everywhere.
Refinishing the original heavy metal tub fixes this whole mess instantly. Specifically our crew sprays a slick super hard chemical coat right over the old finish. Therefore you save thousands of bucks while getting a totally fresh look.
First off we gotta clean off all the ancient soap scum. Next our crew puts down a special bonding agent so the new acrylic sticks like crazy. After that we spray multiple thin layers of glossy high tech finish.
Suddenly that dull chipped monster looks like a brand new showroom piece. Additionally the whole job takes only a couple of hours from start to finish. Surprisingly you can take a nice hot bath again the very next evening!
Living in Lambs Michigan means dealing with hard water mineral build up constantly. That chalky white crust ruins porcelain finishes faster than you can believe. Luckily our tough top layer resists minerals and keeps your space looking pristine.
Furthermore this smart process prevents rust from totally eating through your vintage cast iron. Which means your solid old heavy tub stays right where it belongs for decades. Besides they simply do not build high quality heavy tubs like that anymore!
Instead of tossing out awesome old American made craftsmanship you keep it intact. Simultaneously you update the color from ugly eighties pink to a clean brilliant white. Actually it is the smartest home upgrade you will ever make this year.
Initially we start by taping off every single inch of your floor and walls. Because liquid overspray gets everywhere if you are lazy with your prep work. Therefore we protect your home like it was our own grandmother's place!
Then comes the heavy sanding to remove every speck of flaking paint. Afterwards we fill in deep gouges and hairline cracks with specialized marine filler. Consequently the finished surface feels totally smooth under your bare feet.
Next up is the high strength liquid adhesion promoter that locks everything down tight. Otherwise the new shiny topcoat might peel off in big sheets later on. Frankly cheap discount guys skip this vital step just to save five dollars.
Finally we break out the professional high volume low pressure sprayer system. Layer after layer goes down seamlessly to build incredible depth and liquid shine. Eventually your tired old bathing area looks like a luxury hotel setup.
| Upgrade Path | Time Needed | Mess Factor | Total Cost |
|---|---|---|---|
| Full Tear Out Replacement | One To Two Weeks | Huge Dust And Broken Tile | Extremely Expensive |
| Plastic Wall Liners | Two Days | Medium Mold Risks Later | Pretty Costly |
| Professional Surface Refinishing | Four Hours | Almost None | Super Affordable |
Clearly spraying the current fixture wins on every single realistic category. Why spend crazy money on expensive plumbing tearing out solid walls? Instead you save tons of cash while achieving the exact same visual results.
Our tight knit community in Saint Clair County features so many gorgeous classic homes. Many built across the 48022 location retain their original thick metal bathing basins. Keeping those original fixtures adds authentic character while modernizing the actual room layout.
Local families with middle income earnings around fifty thousand dollars want smart home improvements. Nobody wants to blow their hard earned savings on overpriced full scale remodels. Therefore fast affordable spray restorations make complete financial sense for practical neighbors.
With less than three thousand people living nearby word travels pretty fast about bad work. That is precisely why our team treats every job site with total respect. Honestly our local reputation means way more than making a quick easy buck on a sloppy job.
Firstly ditch those harsh abrasive bleaching powders immediately after we leave. Because scrubby scouring pads scratch up the smooth topcoat like sharp cat claws. Instead just wipe the slick basin down using mild dish soap and hot water.
Secondly fix any leaky shower faucets as soon as you notice them dripping. Persistent water drops hitting the same spot for months wears down any finish prematurely. Plus repairing a simple worn rubber washer saves money on your monthly water bill anyway!
Thirdly avoid using thick rubber bath mats with strong suction cups underneath. Water gets trapped under those little rubber nubs and damages the cure bond over time. Rather buy a simple soft woven bath mat to place outside on the floor tiles.
Overall caring for your refreshed fixture requires almost zero hard physical labor. Simply rinse it down after taking a warm bath to remove soap residue. Consequently your smooth bright basin stays dazzling white without any backbreaking scrubbing duty!
Many ambitious folks buy cheap box store coating kits thinking it looks super simple. Unfortunately those sticky brush on paints leave nasty brush marks everywhere you look. Even worse the fumes inside an enclosed tiny bathroom will totally knock you flat!
Without giant industrial exhaust fans blowing fumes outside you breathe toxic vapors for hours. Furthermore standard store paint starts bubbling up and flaking off within just six months. Eventually you end up paying a pro extra money just to strip off that sticky DIY mistake!
Professional gear uses high pressure heated air lines to lay down smooth glassy liquid. Plus our commercial grade resin hardens through a fast chemical cure rather than simple air drying. So save yourself the giant headache and let trained local crew handle the messy work!

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 Lambs, 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.
