A dull or chipped tub in Muttonville 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 can finally stop hiding your stained bathroom behind a heavy plastic curtain.
This is because a simple, clever process can completely restore that worn-out tub surface to its original shine in just a few hours.
Best of all, you will save thousands of dollars compared to a messy, chaotic remodel.
Naturally, we all want a clean place to soak after a hard day of work.
However, ripping out old plumbing and heavy cast iron can easily turn into a total nightmare.
Luckily, our professional local team specializes in saving your existing fixtures by applying a durable, high-gloss protective coating right on site.
If you live in this cozy corner of Macomb County, you already know the value of keeping a home in top shape.
With a local population of under five thousand residents, our tight-knit community loves practical, smart home improvement solutions.
Which means you get personalized, friendly service from neighbors who truly care about your property.
Many homeowners assume that a chipped, discolored, or outdated basin must go straight to the landfill.
Actually, we use specialized chemical cleaners and bonding agents to prep your old porcelain or fiberglass.
This step ensures the new liquid acrylic coating sticks perfectly and stays beautiful for many years.
To start, our crew meticulously repairs any deep scratches, rust spots, or ugly chips.
After that, we spray a high-tech primer that acts like superglue for the shiny topcoat.
This process creates a non-porous barrier that resists mildew, soap scum, and daily wear.
Furthermore, you do not have to worry about dusty drywall, broken tiles, or expensive permits.
Because we do all the work right inside your existing space, your bathroom remains fully functional.
You can typically use your upgraded shower again in only twenty-four to forty-eight hours.
Let us look at some real numbers because home maintenance can get incredibly expensive.
While a new basin might seem cheap at the local home improvement store, the hidden installation fees will shock you.
The table below shows how our specialized process compares to a traditional demolition job.
| Project Factor | Full Demolition and Replacement | On-Site Surface Restoration |
|---|---|---|
| Average Cost | $3,000 to $8,000 | A fraction of replacement costs |
| Project Duration | 1 to 2 weeks of mess | Finished in 4 to 6 hours |
| Plumbing Hassle | High risk of leaks and pipe changes | Zero plumbing modifications needed |
| Durability | Depends on the new material | Up to 10-15 years with proper care |
Now, think about what you could do with all those savings.
Perhaps you can finally fix up the kitchen or plan a nice weekend getaway.
This lets you enjoy a gorgeous, modern washroom without draining your hard-earned savings account.
It is very tempting to grab a cheap box of paint from a big-box retail store.
Unfortunately, those consumer-grade epoxy kits do not come with professional ventilation or industrial-strength etching acids.
As a result, the DIY paint job usually starts peeling and bubbling within a few short months.
On top of that, we use commercial spray guns that apply an incredibly smooth, factory-like finish.
You will never see ugly brush strokes, uneven drips, or weird texture patterns when we handle the job.
We stand behind our craftsmanship, which gives you complete peace of mind.
Every year, thousands of heavy steel and cast iron fixtures end up rotting in local landfills.
By choosing to restore what you already own, you help reduce this unnecessary construction waste.
This simple choice is a great way to go green while upgrading your home.
In addition, our modern coatings are designed to be safer for your household.
We use exhaust fans to pull any strong fumes directly out of your house during the application process.
This means your family can breathe easily while we transform your space.
First, our friendly technician arrives on time with all the necessary gear.
We carefully mask off your floors, walls, and vanity to protect them from any overspray.
Then, we remove the old caulk and thoroughly scrub the target area to remove body oils and soap residue.
Next, we apply our exclusive bonding agent, followed by multiple coats of premium acrylic resin.
This meticulous application process is what separates a amateur job from a truly professional result.
Once the final coat cures, we lay down a fresh bead of silicone caulk around the edges.
Lastly, we clean up our workspace so well you will barely know we were there.
Your only job is to admire the stunning, glossy transformation.
It is really that simple, quick, and hassle-free.
To keep that brilliant shine looking fresh, you should avoid harsh abrasive cleaners.
Simple liquid dish soap or mild bathroom sprays will do the trick perfectly.
This saves you from scrubbing on your hands and knees with painful chemicals.
Also, remember to skip the heavy suction-cup bath mats, which can pull at the new finish over time.
We can even apply a built-in slip-resistant texture to the bottom of your basin during the process.
This safety feature protects your family from accidental slips without damaging the beautiful coating.

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 Muttonville, 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.

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.
