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.
Are you tired of looking at that ugly worn out basin in your bathroom every morning? Thankfully getting a fresh custom finish on your old soaking tub costs way less than buying a brand new one today.
Truth is nobody likes looking at stained chipped enamel while trying to take a relaxing bath after work. Honestly buying a whole new unit means ripping out tiles and hiring expensive plumbers which wrecks your budget fast. Instead calling a local finisher to lay down a fresh coating saves you thousands of bucks easily.
Actually the whole process takes just a few hours from start to finish without any mess left behind. Besides that your old heavy cast iron fixture is probably way better quality than the cheap plastic stuff they sell in big box stores now. So restoring the original surface brings back that shiny cozy feel without the crazy hassle of a massive home renovation project.
Plus you can pick pretty much any color you want to match your current bathroom decor perfectly. Naturally a bright clean surface instantly makes your entire restroom look bigger and much cleaner to guests. Honestly it is the smartest home improvement trick out there for smart homeowners wanting big results on a real budget.
First off we show up at your home with all our heavy duty tools and specialized safety equipment ready to work. After that we give your basin a deep chemical wash to scrub away every bit of old soap scum and hard water deposits. This critical step ensures our new high tech coatings stick forever without peeling up later down the road.
Next we carefully patch up every tiny chip scratch or rust spot using tough waterproof epoxy fillers. Because of this step the old surface becomes super smooth just like the day it was first installed decades ago. Then we wrap your entire bathroom in protective plastic sheets to keep overspray off your walls mirror and vanity sink.
Finally we spray multiple thin layers of professional grade acrylic coating using special high pressure tools. Then we let it cure into a super hard rock solid shell that resists hot water and heavy daily use for years. So you end up with a smooth shiny fixture that looks brand new for a tiny fraction of replacement cost...
| Project Option | Average Cost | Time Required | Mess Level |
|---|---|---|---|
| Complete Replacement | High | 3 to 5 Days | Extreme Dust and Noise |
| Professional Resurfacing | Low | 4 to 6 Hours | Zero Mess Left Behind |
First off ripping out an old tub usually ruins the floor surrounding tiles and nearby drywall. Furthermore you end up paying trash fees just to haul that massive chunk of iron away to the local landfill. Meanwhile refinishing keeps everything right in place while completely transforming how the room looks in one single afternoon.
Additionally modern acrylic resin synthetic coatings are insanely durable against daily family wear and tear. Which means you will not have to worry about ugly yellow spots or peeling paint like those cheap DIY store kits cause. So choosing a real expert saves your sanity and keeps your hard earned cash right where it belongs in your wallet.
On top of that the turnaround time is crazy fast compared to standard messy construction work. Actually you can usually take a nice long bath again within twenty four to forty eight hours maximum after we finish spraying. Therefore your family experiences almost zero disruption to their normal daily routine during the quick service process.
Interestingly this sun soaked central region located near major theme parks in the Sunshine State has grown super fast over recent years. Specifically over three hundred eighty eight thousand people live across local communities like Kissimmee St Cloud and Celebration. Also local families earning a median household income around sixty thousand dollars always look for budget friendly ways to update their property values.
Furthermore zip codes like 34741 along with 34744 and 34769 feature tons of lovely older homes built during previous building booms. So many of these houses still feature original colored bathroom setups that desperately need a modern white facelift today. Fortunately our mobile service vans head out directly to every single neighborhood in Osceola County Florida to deliver top quality work locally.
Because humidity is so high around here old porcelain finishes often wear out quicker than in colder dry climates. Beyond that heavy mineral content in local tap water can etch deep dull spots into porcelain over extended time. Thus getting a tough new liquid porcelain layer helps protect your home investment against tough local environmental factors effectively.
Immediately after we finish you want to avoid using harsh abrasive powder cleansers or scratchy green scrubbing pads. Instead just wipe down the smooth glossy finish using gentle dish soap and a soft microfiber cloth after bathing. This simple habit keeps the shiny gloss looking like a million bucks without scratching the protective top layer down.
Likewise make sure you fix any leaky faucets quickly so dripping water does not sit in one spot continuously. Although the new coating is extremely tough constant standing water can weaken even the strongest bonds over long periods. Additionally taking off wet suction bath mats after every shower prevents trapped moisture from damaging the fresh bottom surface.
Lastly avoid dropping heavy sharp metal tools or metal bleach cans onto the freshly cured glossy surface. However if an accident ever happens local touch up repairs are super simple and fast for us to fix later. So with basic basic love and care your restored basin will stay bright smooth and cozy for a decade or more easy.
First off bleach based cleaners eat away at synthetic resin coatings surprisingly fast if left sitting long. Naturally using abrasive steel wool pads leaves thousands of tiny micro scratches that collect grime and turn yellow rapidly. So sticking to non abrasive sprays guarantees your tub remains sparkling clean without ruining the outer glaze layer.
Also leaving heavy wet bath mats stuck to the floor creates dark humid traps where mold loves growing fast. Therefore hung dry bath mats allow proper airflow so the slick bottom layer can air dry completely between uses. Consequently following these quick tips protects your wallet by making the high shine coating last twice as long overall.

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.
