A dull or chipped tub in Lewisville 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.

Indeed, choosing to refinish your bath saves you thousands of dollars compared to tearing everything out of the wall.
This means you get to keep your sturdy old cast iron tub while making it look brand new.
Our local team specializes in this exact chemical renewal process to wipe away years of scratches and rust.
Actually, we love helping homeowners in this cozy corner of Huron County get the gorgeous bathroom they deserve.

We will visit your property, inspect the surface, and give you an honest estimate with zero pressure.
First, we must thoroughly clean the existing surface using industrial-strength acid cleaners to strip away soap scum.
This step is absolutely crucial because any leftover body oils or mineral deposits will ruin the adhesion of our new coatings.
We do not take shortcuts here, even if it requires extra scrubbing.
Next, we repair any deep chips or cracks with a specialized waterproof polyester filler.
This lets us create a perfectly flat surface that feels incredibly smooth to the touch.
Once the repairs cure, we sand them down until they blend seamlessly with the rest of the structure.
After that, we apply a chemical bonding agent that acts like a superglue between the old porcelain and the new finish.
Without this primer, the new layers would peel off within a few months of hot showers.
You can trust our professional-grade materials to hold up against daily wear and tear for years.
Finally, we spray several coats of a high-tech acrylic urethane topcoat using a professional spray system.
Which means you get a factory-like shine that looks identical to a brand new unit from the store.
We then let it cure so you can start enjoying your gorgeous, refreshed space as soon as possible.
Think about the sheer chaos of hiring plumbers, drywallers, and tile setters just to swap out one single fixture.
That headache can last for weeks, leaving you without a functioning bathroom and a dusty house.
In contrast, our clean surface restoration process takes only a single day from start to finish.
On top of that, old tubs are often built much better than the cheap plastic replicas you find at big-box stores today.
Keeping your heavy duty original model preserves the heat-retention properties of cast iron or thick steel.
You get to keep that solid, premium feel while enjoying a sparkling clean look.
To help you compare your options, we put together this simple table showing the real differences between these two paths.
| Comparison Factor | Our Specialized Spraying Process | Full Demo and Replacement |
|---|---|---|
| Total Cost | Very affordable, usually a fraction of replacement | Extremely expensive due to labor and tiling |
| Time to Complete | Typically done in 4 to 8 hours | Can drag on for one to two weeks | Mess and Dust | Minimal, we mask off the entire room | Massive amount of drywall dust and debris |
Naturally, saving money on the fixture itself means you have more cash left over for other home improvements.
This lets you upgrade your vanity, buy a new toilet, or purchase high-end fixtures to complete the look.
You get the ultimate value without sacrificing the visual appeal of your home.
Living in a quiet community of just over five hundred people means we appreciate local history and durable craftsmanship.
Many homes around the 48413 zip code boast beautiful, historic architecture with deep clawfoot tubs or heavy alcove units.
Tearing those out can actually decrease the vintage charm and character of your property.
Moreover, local median household income statistics show that we all appreciate a smart, cost-effective home project.
Why spend hard-earned savings on expensive contractors when a single day of professional spraying achieves the exact same look?
We focus on delivering high-end results that fit comfortably within your family budget.
Specifically, our humid Midwestern seasons can make bathroom moisture a real issue if your fixtures are cracked or porous.
Sealing your tub with a non-porous acrylic layer prevents mold and mildew from taking root in those microscopic crevices.
This makes your weekly cleaning routine much easier because dirt simply slides off the glossy surface.
Now, you must treat your newly glazed surface with a bit of respect to ensure it lasts for up to fifteen years.
Avoid harsh abrasive cleaners like bleach powders or steel wool pads that scratch the shiny topcoat.
Instead, use mild dish soap or a gentle spray cleaner along with a soft sponge.
Additionally, never leave wet washcloths or shampoo bottles sitting directly on the surface for weeks at a time.
This trapping of moisture can slowly weaken the bond over several years, leading to premature dullness.
Simply wiping the surface dry after use will keep that spectacular gloss shining like a mirror.
Sometimes, people ask us if they can use those cheap suction-cup bathmats on their newly finished surfaces.
We strongly advise against them because pulling them up can slowly yank at the chemical bond over time.
We can actually apply a permanent, built-in slip-resistant texture to the bottom of your tub during our process instead.
Perhaps you are tired of feeling embarrassed when guests use your hallway bathroom.
You do not have to live with that ugly, discolored, or stained basin for another single day.
Our friendly team is ready to drive out to your home and assess the situation firsthand.
We take pride in our honest communication, showing up on time, and cleaning up every bit of our work area.
When you contact us, we will walk you through the color options, discuss the timeline, and hand you a detailed quote.
This estimate is completely free of charge, with no hidden fees or surprise costs tacked on later.
So, let us help you fall in love with your bathroom all over again.
Take a quick moment to give us a shout to schedule your consultation.
We look forward to transforming your tub and putting a smile on your face with our specialized restoration craftsmanship!
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 Lewisville, 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.
