A dull or chipped tub in Meadow Vale 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 stare at that faded, dingy tub every single morning while brushing your teeth, wishing you could magically transform its stained surface into a sparkling clean masterpiece. Fortunately, our team visits local homes to completely renew old, chipped, or outdated porcelain and fiberglass fixtures right where they sit. This budget-friendly solution saves you from the massive headaches of a messy demolition project.
By choosing this smart alternative, you avoid hiring plumbers, ripping out drywall, and spending thousands of dollars on a full bathroom remodel. Instead, our process applies a incredibly durable, high-gloss coating that bonds directly to your existing unit. This means you get a gorgeous, fresh finish that looks brand new in just a matter of hours.
If you want to upgrade your home today, we provide a free estimate with absolutely no obligations. This quick consultation helps you understand the steps involved, the total savings, and how we can bring back that original shine. Our friendly crew loves helping neighbors get the gorgeous home they deserve without the heavy financial stress.
First, let us look at what this specialized service actually entails because many folks confuse it with basic painting. Our skilled technicians carefully prep the area using a special acid wash that strips away decades of soap scum, body oils, and hard water deposits. This critical step creates a perfectly clean, porous surface so the new materials can stick forever.
Next, we repair any deep scratches, rust spots, or ugly chips with a high-grade polyester filler that cures incredibly fast. After sanding those patches down until they are completely smooth, we spray on a proprietary bonding agent. This secret weapon ensures the topcoats fuse with the old material on a molecular level.
Finally, we apply several layers of an advanced acrylic urethane coating using a professional spray system for a flawless finish. This specific material delivers incredible strength and a lustrous shine that mimics the look of expensive brand-new porcelain. Which means your daily soaking spot will look completely refreshed, clean, and inviting for years to come.
Consider the actual cost of buying a brand-new fixture at the local hardware store. While the price tag on the shelf might look cheap, the hidden expenses of delivery, installation, and disposal will quickly drain your bank account. On top of that, older homes often have heavy cast-iron units that require multiple strong workers just to carry them out the door.
Choosing our on-site renewal service eliminates all of those chaotic construction hassles in one fell swoop. We complete the entire transformation in less than a single day, which minimizes disruption to your busy household routine. Furthermore, we keep tons of heavy, non-biodegradable construction waste out of our local landfills by preserving what you already have.
| Project Aspect | Complete Replacement | Our Restoration Service |
|---|---|---|
| Total Cost | Very expensive (often $3,000+) | Highly affordable and budget-friendly |
| Time to Complete | Several days or weeks of mess | Finished in just a few hours |
| Plumbing Work | Required to fit new drains | No plumbing changes needed |
| Mess & Dust | High amount of drywall and tile dust | Virtually none, we mask off everything |
Now, look at those dramatic differences and think about how much time you will save. Our process keeps your existing tiles and plumbing intact, meaning you do not have to worry about matching old colors or fixing broken drywall. This straightforward approach gives you total peace of mind while keeping your hard-earned money in your wallet.

You can trust us to deliver a gorgeous finish that enhances your home value instantly.
Once our team packs up and leaves your home, you must follow a few simple guidelines to protect your investment. Although the new coating is incredibly tough, using abrasive cleaners like steel wool or gritty powders will dull the gorgeous shine. Instead, we recommend using mild, non-abrasive liquid soaps and a soft sponge for weekly cleanings.
Another great tip is to avoid leaving wet bath mats or heavy shampoo bottles sitting on the surface for weeks. Moisture trapped underneath these items can eventually weaken the bond over time and cause premature peeling. Taking care of your renewed fixture is actually much easier than scrubbing old, porous porcelain that stains constantly.
By following these easy steps, you ensure the protective coating stays glossy, smooth, and beautiful for up to a decade. This simple maintenance routine keeps your bathroom looking like a luxury hotel suite with minimal effort on your part. You will love how easily water beads up and slides down the slick, restored surface.
Are you ready to stop hiding your ugly bathroom behind a thick, dark shower curtain? We make the entire process incredibly easy by coming directly to your home to inspect the current condition of your fixture. This hands-on evaluation allows us to give you a highly accurate, transparent quote without any hidden fees.
During our visit, we can also discuss custom color options if you want to move away from outdated shades. We love helping homeowners transition from vintage pink or green to a clean, modern bright white finish. This simple change completely opens up your small bathroom space and makes it feel much larger.
Do not wait any longer to transform your home into a place of pride and serene relaxation. Contact us today to book your completely free on-site consultation and take the first step toward a beautiful bathroom. We look forward to meeting you, discussing your project, and delivering a flawless finish that you will absolutely love showing off.
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 Meadow Vale, 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.
