A dull or chipped tub in Lubec 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.
You probably hate looking at that dull stained fixture in your bathroom every single morning. This ugly sight ruins your whole day before you even get a chance to brush your teeth. Fortunately you do not have to spend thousands of dollars on a messy tear-out project to fix this annoying issue.
Our local team brings your worn-out bathing basin back to life in just a single afternoon. This fast process saves you from the nightmare of dusty demolition work. Which means you can soak in a beautiful shiny basin by tomorrow evening without breaking your piggy bank.
We believe everyone deserves a sparkling clean space to wash away their daily worries. That is why we offer a completely free estimate to help you plan your budget with confidence. By choosing our local service you get premium results that make your bathroom feel brand new again.
Think about the massive headache of ripping a heavy cast iron or steel fixture right out of your wall. This chaotic process usually destroys your beautiful wall tiles and disrupts your plumbing. On top of that you have to pay expensive dump fees just to discard the old heavy materials.
Our specialized surface renewal technique bypasses all of those stressful steps entirely. We carefully prep your existing setup and apply a durable high-gloss finish right over the old worn topcoat. This smart approach keeps your sturdy original fixture exactly where it belongs while giving it a gorgeous facelift.
You also save a mountain of cash that you can spend on other home improvement projects instead. Our affordable alternative fits perfectly into tight budgets which is great news for hardworking homeowners. You get the same stunning look of a brand new purchase for a tiny fraction of the traditional cost.
First we clean the entire area with industrial-strength cleaners to strip away decades of soap scum and hard water deposits. This critical preparation step ensures our new materials bond perfectly to your original porcelain or fiberglass structure. Any small chips or deep scratches get filled and sanded down until the surface feels completely smooth.
Next we apply a specialized bonding agent that acts like a super-strong glue for the new finish. This chemical weld prevents peeling and bubbling so your investment lasts for many years to come. After that we spray several layers of a high-tech acrylic coating using professional equipment for an even shine.
Finally we let the beautiful new coating cure completely into a rock-hard protective shell. This pristine shield resists stains and makes your weekly cleaning chores a total breeze. Here is a quick breakdown of how our process compares to a traditional remodel:
| Comparison Factor | Our Surface Renewal Service | Traditional Basin Replacement |
|---|---|---|
| Total Project Time | Only 4 to 6 hours total | Usually 3 to 7 stressful days |
| Average Project Cost | Very affordable for everyone | Extremely expensive plumbing labor |
| Mess and Dust Level | Virtually zero cleanup required | Massive drywall and tile dust |
| Fixture Durability | Extremely long-lasting shine | Depends on cheap modern plastics |
We absolutely love working in this beautiful easternmost corner of Washington County where hard work and honest values still mean something. This coastal gem has a small population of just 321 friendly residents who appreciate quality craftsmanship. We know that local folks watch their hard-earned dollars carefully especially with a median household income of around $32,386.
Our mobile service van travels all over the 04652 ZIP code to deliver top-notch home transformations. This means you do not have to search far and wide for reliable contractors who actually show up on time. We treat your home with the utmost respect because we are proud to serve our coastal neighbors.
Living near the salty ocean air means your home fixtures face unique wear and tear over time. This damp environment can cause older surfaces to rust or discolor much faster than they would inland. Our durable coating materials are specifically designed to withstand these tough coastal conditions with ease.
Maintaining your restored surface is actually much easier than dealing with an old porous finish. You just need to avoid harsh abrasive scrubbers that can scratch the glossy protective layer over time. Instead we recommend using gentle liquid soap and a soft microfiber cloth for your weekly wipe-downs.
This simple cleaning routine keeps your bathroom looking like a luxury hotel suite with almost zero effort. Now you can say goodbye to those exhausting hours spent scrubbing on your hands and knees. This brings immense satisfaction to anyone who values their free time and physical energy.
We also advise fixing any dripping faucets quickly so standing water does not wear down the seal. This small habit protects your shiny new surface and prevents mold from building up in the corners. With just a little bit of basic care your beautiful basin will look incredible for a very long time.

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 Lubec, 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.
