A dull or chipped tub in Nine Mile 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 wake up every single morning and stare at that hideous, stained surface in your bathroom. Honestly, it makes you want to close your eyes while showering because those rusty spots look so gross. Fortunately, our local team can completely transform that worn-out basin into a shiny masterpiece without the mess of a dusty demolition project.
By choosing to resurface your existing fixture, you save thousands of dollars compared to a messy replacement. This means you get to keep your hard-earned cash for other fun home projects. Plus, the entire process takes just a few hours of quiet work.
To make things even sweeter, we always offer a completely free on-site estimate to help you plan your budget. You can easily schedule a visit from our friendly crew today. Let us show you how simple it is to bring back that clean, fresh feeling to your daily routine.
First, we carefully scrape away all the old, peeling DIY paint coats that previous owners might have sloppily slapped on. This crucial step ensures that our new professional bond adheres perfectly to the original cast iron or steel. Actually, many people do not realize that preparation is ninety percent of the job.
Next, we repair every single chip, scratch, and deep ding using specialized filler materials. Which means your finished product will feel incredibly smooth under your feet. After we fix those imperfections, we apply a powerful bonding agent that chemically fuses with the old porcelain.
Finally, we spray several thin coats of a high-tech acrylic coating using advanced ventilation systems to keep your home smelling fresh. This advanced technique creates an incredibly durable barrier against water and soap scum. As a result, your fixture gains a beautiful, glossy shine that looks brand new.
Buying a brand-new fixture might sound fun until you realize you have to hire a pricey plumber. On top of that, workers usually have to tear out your gorgeous wall tiles just to get the old tub out. Our dust-free process avoids all that headache by keeping your bathroom completely intact.
This smart method saves you from weeks of construction noise and annoying dust floating around your house. Instead, you get to use your bathroom again in just twenty-four hours. Here is a quick comparison to show you why resurfacing makes the most sense for your wallet:
| Factor | Full Replacement | Our Restoration Service |
|---|---|---|
| Average Cost | Very High (Thousands of dollars) | Super Affordable |
| Time Required | One to two weeks of mess | Done in less than a day |
| Demolition Needed | Yes, walls must be torn open | None at all |
Clearly, choosing to refresh the existing material is the most logical path for smart homeowners. This lets you enjoy a sparkling clean wash area without the stress of a major renovation. Furthermore, the modern coatings we use are designed to resist yellowing over time.

Because we live and work nearby, we can easily fit into your busy schedule for a quick consultation. This means you do not have to wait weeks for an out-of-town contractor to show up. We treat your home with the utmost respect, cleaning up every speck of dust before we leave.
Different homes feature various types of bathroom fixtures, and we know exactly how to handle every single one. For instance, heavy cast iron units require a very specific acid-etching process to create a rough surface for the new finish. Without this step, the new coating would simply peel off after a few hot baths.
On the other hand, lighter fiberglass or acrylic shells need a more delicate touch and specialized bonding agents. This prevents the underlying plastic from warping or reacting negatively to our professional solvents. No matter what material you have, we possess the right tools and knowledge to handle it safely.
We also fix those annoying, leaky drains that cause ugly rust rings to form around the bottom of the basin. By addressing these minor plumbing issues during the process, we guarantee a longer-lasting finish. You will love how easily water glides down the drain once we finish our work.
Once we complete the job, maintaining that brilliant luster is actually incredibly simple. You must avoid harsh abrasive powders or bleach because those chemicals can scratch the protective topcoat. Instead, we recommend using mild dish soap and a soft microfiber cloth to wipe it down.
This easy cleaning routine keeps your wash basin looking spectacular for up to fifteen years with proper care. Which means you spend less time scrubbing on your hands and knees every weekend. You get to enjoy a clean, sanitary space with minimal effort.
To help you preserve this pristine look, we provide a detailed care guide after every single job. This handy checklist ensures everyone in your family knows how to treat the new surface. We want you to feel confident that your investment will stand the test of time.
We truly care about delivering honest, high-quality results to our neighbors in Indiana. Unlike big corporate franchises, we do not use pushy sales tactics or hide extra fees in the fine print. The price we quote you during our free visit is the exact price you pay when the job is done.
Our technicians undergo rigorous training to master the art of smooth spray applications. This attention to detail prevents runs, bubbles, or rough spots from ruining the final look. We take immense pride in our craftsmanship, and it shows in every completed project.
If you are ready to stop feeling embarrassed by your outdated bathroom, we are here to help. Contact us today to request your free, no-obligation estimate right at your home. Let us transform your bathroom into a bright, welcoming space that you can actually enjoy using again.
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 Nine Mile, 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.
