A dull or chipped tub in Lincoln 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.
Your old tub looks downright tired. If you are tired of staring at ugly stains and chipped surfaces every single morning, you might think a costly remodel is your only option. Luckily, a much smarter and faster solution exists right now to make that worn-out fixture look brand new again.
By choosing to refinish the existing surface instead of ripping it out, you save thousands of dollars. This budget-friendly process breathes fresh life into dull cast iron or fiberglass. Our team of local professionals specializes in restoring that original factory shine right in your home.
To get started on this transformation, you simply need to request a free quote. We will look at your project and explain how we can revive your bathroom in just one day. There is no obligation, so you can make your decision with complete peace of mind.
Many homeowners confuse this specialized coating process with simple painting. Actually, we use high-grade industrial bonding agents and acrylic topcoats that fuse directly with your old fixture. This creates a hard, glossy barrier that looks identical to brand new porcelain.
First, we meticulously clean the area to remove decades of soap scum and hard water deposits. This step is crucial because the new materials require a pristine surface to stick properly. We then repair any deep scratches, chips, or rust spots that have developed over the years.
Once the prep work is complete, we spray on a multi-layered finish using professional ventilation equipment. This ensures a smooth, mirror-like result without any brush marks or runs. You get a gorgeous, easy-to-clean basin that makes your entire bathroom feel clean and modern.
Plumbing projects often turn into a nightmare once you start tearing down walls. You might discover hidden water damage, mold, or outdated pipes that require expensive emergency repairs. Choosing to renew the surface avoids these nasty surprises entirely.
Another major advantage is the incredible amount of time you save. A full remodel can leave your home in a dusty mess for weeks. Our clean, on-site process takes less than a day, meaning you can use your shower again almost immediately.
| Project Factor | Surface Restoration | Full Replacement |
|---|---|---|
| Average Cost | Very Affordable | Extremely Expensive |
| Time to Complete | 4 to 6 Hours | Several Weeks |
| Mess & Demolition | None | High Dust and Noise |
| Lifespan | 10 to 15 Years | 20+ Years |
With proper care, your newly coated basin will stay bright and beautiful for up to fifteen years. You just need to avoid abrasive cleaners that can scratch the protective surface. Using mild soaps and a soft sponge keeps the gloss looking pristine.
This longevity makes the service an incredible investment for any homeowner. You protect your original fixtures while upgrading the visual appeal of your property. It is the ultimate way to maximize your home improvement budget.

Hard water is a frequent issue in our region, causing unsightly orange rust stains around drains. These mineral deposits eat away at your fixtures, making them look dirty even after a thorough scrubbing. Our restoration process completely seals these problem areas, preventing future rust from creeping back.
Older homes in the area often feature beautiful, heavy cast iron clawfoot tubs. These vintage pieces are incredibly durable but suffer from dulled finishes over the decades. We specialize in preserving these classic treasures, saving their historic value while restoring their brilliant shine.
If you are planning to sell your home, a sparkling bathroom dramatically boosts buyer interest. A stained, yellowed tub can instantly turn off potential buyers who dread the thought of remodeling. For a tiny fraction of the cost, you can present a spotless space that looks move-in ready.
When you contact us, we schedule a convenient time to assess your bathroom. We believe in absolute transparency, which is why we provide a detailed, itemized estimate upfront. You will know exactly what to expect before we ever turn on a machine.
On the day of the job, we take extreme care to protect your floors, walls, and vanity. We use heavy-duty masking paper and drop cloths to seal off the work zone. Our high-powered exhaust fans vent all fumes safely outside, keeping your indoor air clean and fresh.
After applying the chemical bonding agent, we spray multiple coats of our premium aliphatic acrylic polyurethane. This material is highly resistant to impact, thermal shock, and moisture. Finally, we clean up our workspace, leaving your bathroom cleaner than we found it.
Cheap DIY kits from local hardware stores simply cannot match professional-grade coatings. Those store-bought epoxy paints often peel, yellow, or crack within a few short months. We invest in top-tier industrial materials that form a molecular bond with the original substrate.
This superior adhesion is what keeps the finish from bubbling when exposed to hot water. Our coatings are designed to expand and contract with temperature changes. This flexibility prevents cracking, ensuring your investment looks spectacular for a very long time.
We also offer a variety of color options to match your existing bathroom decor. While classic high-gloss white is the most popular choice, we can customize the shade to fit your vision. This flexibility allows you to modernize your space without replacing your tiles or vanity.
Do not spend another day tolerating a dingy, embarrassing bathroom. You deserve a clean, sparkling space where you can unwind after a long, hard day of work. Our friendly team is ready to deliver a flawless finish that fits your budget.
By requesting your free quote, you take the first step toward an easy home upgrade. We will answer all your questions and provide a clear plan tailored to your specific needs. Let us handle the hard work while you sit back and enjoy the stunning transformation.
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 Lincoln, 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.
