All over Oneida County, worn bathtubs are resurfaced in place: repairs first, gloss second, fresh caulk on the way out.
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.

First, we carefully prep the area by cleaning away every single trace of soap scum, mineral deposits, and old caulking.
This crucial step ensures that our advanced bonding agents can grip the original cast iron, steel, or fiberglass surface with maximum strength.
If we skip this deep clean, the fresh finish might peel off later, so we take our sweet time getting it spotless.
Next, we repair any deep chips, ugly rust spots, or accidental cracks using a specialized waterproof filler.
This restores the structural integrity of your wash basin so you do not have to worry about water leaking through hidden weak points.
Once everything is smooth, we mask off your walls and floor to protect your home from any stray overspray.
Finally, we apply our premium liquid acrylic coating using high-tech spray equipment for a perfectly uniform finish.
This proprietary compound cures into an incredibly hard, non-porous layer that resists scratches and keeps its luster for years to come.
As a result, your clean-up routine becomes incredibly simple because dirt and grime no longer have rough pores to stick to.
If you decide to pull out an old cast iron tub, you will quickly realize how heavy and stubborn those beasts are.
Which means you might have to pay plumbers, tile setters, and haulers just to get the old one out and a new one in.
Choosing our professional topcoat application instead eliminates those extra labor costs completely while keeping tons of construction waste out of our local landfills.
On top of that, the entire process takes less than a day from start to finish.
This lets you use your shower again very quickly rather than waiting around for permits and inspections.
We know you have better things to do than manage a parade of subcontractors through your hallways for a week.
| Project Factor | Complete Replacement | Our Professional Surface Renewal |
|---|---|---|
| Total Project Time | Usually 1 to 2 weeks of messy construction | Completed in less than 24 hours |
| Average Expense | Very high due to plumbing and tile work | Extremely affordable for any household budget |
| Mess and Dust | Unbearable noise, drywall dust, and debris | Virtually none, with careful masking protection |
To help you understand the value, let us look at some real financial numbers.
A typical replacement job can easily climb past three thousand dollars once you repair the damaged drywall and replace the broken surrounding tiles.
In contrast, our local surface renewal service costs a mere fraction of that amount while delivering the exact same visual impact.

Whether you live in a historic home with a classic clawfoot tub or a modern suburban house with a standard alcove unit, we know exactly how to handle your specific fixture.
We proudly serve all local zip codes across Oneida County, New York (NY), USA, which has a population of around 232,000 residents who appreciate quality craftsmanship.
Since the median household income here sits around $65,000, we know that spending your hard-earned money wisely is a major priority.
This is why we focus on delivering a high-end look that fits comfortably within your family budget.
We treat your property with the utmost respect, arriving on time and cleaning up every speck of dust before we pack up our tools.
Our customers often tell us they cannot believe the transformation when they see the final glossy shine.
You will love how the bright, clean surface makes your entire bathroom feel larger, fresher, and far more inviting.
It is amazing how a simple update can completely change the way you feel about your home every single morning.
Naturally, you might wonder how long this beautiful new coating will actually last under daily use.
With basic, gentle care, your glossy new finish will easily remain bright and beautiful for ten to fifteen years.
This means you must avoid harsh abrasive powders or bleach, which can dull the shiny protective layer over time.
Instead, we recommend using mild dish soap or a gentle spray cleaner along with a soft sponge to keep it pristine.
This simple routine prevents soap scum buildup without scratching the smooth, non-porous acrylic barrier.
You will save a lot of elbow grease because you no longer have to scrub like crazy to get the surface clean.
However, we also suggest checking your bathroom ventilation to make sure moisture does not sit on the surface forever.
Good airflow helps the coating stay dry between uses, which prevents any potential lifting or bubbling over the years.
Taking these small steps ensures your investment looks brand new for a very long time... saving you money down the road.
Now is the perfect time to stop staring at that ugly, stained, or outdated fixture and finally do something about it.

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, 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.
Somewhere under that worn surface is the tub you chose. One day brings it back.
