A dull or chipped tub in Oxoboxo River 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.
Are you tired of staring at that stained tub every single morning? Well, our local crew in New London County fixes chipped porcelain so your bathing space looks brand new.
Now, bathing vessels take a beating over the years. Because of heavy daily use, the factory finish eventually wears down completely. This leaves behind a rough surface that catches dirt faster than you can clean it.
Fortunately, you do not have to spend thousands on a messy demolition project. Instead, our team restores the original structure right in your home without tearing anything out.
When you live around ZIP codes spanning our scenic corner of the state, home maintenance projects can add up quickly. Therefore, finding an affordable way to upgrade your bathroom saves you serious cash.
This local service brings peace of mind to homeowners earning around the median household income of $57321. Meanwhile, our technicians handle the entire chemical bonding process safely and efficiently.
Furthermore, our population of 2906 residents deserves top tier craftsmanship without inflated prices. Consequently, we keep our overhead low so we can pass the savings directly to you.
Chemical adhesion primers create a permanent bond between the old tub and the new acrylic coating. This lets you enjoy a smooth surface that resists mold and mildew buildup effortlessly.
During the process, we use specialized ventilation equipment to clear out fumes from your house. Which means your family stays safe while we work our magic in the washroom.
First, our technicians clean the entire basin to remove soap scum and mineral deposits. Then, we patch any chips or cracks using industrial grade fillers for a uniform base.
After that, we spray multiple layers of high gloss coating using an HVLP turbine system. This ensures a flawless finish that makes your old basin shine like new porcelain.
Are you wondering how long this whole transformation takes from start to finish? Most standard projects wrap up in just one single afternoon without disrupting your routine.
Once the final coat cures completely, you can use your revitalized basin the very next day. This rapid turnaround time keeps your household running smoothly without unnecessary hotel stays.
On top of that, maintaining your newly finished soaking vessel requires very little effort on your part. Simply use mild dish soap and a soft sponge to keep that glossy sheen glowing.
Many folks believe that painted tubs will peel off after a few months of heavy scrubbing. However, our advanced bonding agents chemically melt into the original substrate for ultimate durability.
Another myth is that the fumes will ruin your indoor air quality permanently. In reality, our powerful extraction fans vent everything safely outside your windows.
Replacing a cast iron tub involves plumbing fees, drywall repair, and tile work. Meanwhile, our surface restoration service focuses only on the fixture itself.
| Replacement Method | Our Restoration Method |
|---|---|
| Costs thousands of dollars | Saves up to seventy percent |
| Takes weeks of construction | Finishes in just one day |
| Creates huge amounts of debris | Leaves zero mess behind |
Do you notice dull spots where the shiny surface used to be on your basin? That dullness means the protective clear coat has worn away entirely from years of scrubbing.
Whenever rust starts bleeding through the drain area, you need immediate attention from a pro. This prevents structural damage from spreading deeper into the underlying metal or fiberglass.
Stubborn stains that refuse to come out with bleach are another major red flag. Those discoloration marks happen because porous material absorbs dirt beneath the top layer.
Harsh abrasive cleansers scratch the delicate topcoat and shorten the lifespan of your fixtures. Instead, switch to gentle gel cleaners to protect your newly renewed surface for years.
Rubber mats with suction cups can trap moisture and ruin the fresh finish over time. Therefore, you should hang your mats up to dry after every single bath.
Throwing away an old porcelain tub adds heavy construction waste to local landfills unnecessarily. By choosing to restore instead, you keep tons of material out of the trash.
Manufacturing a brand new soaking vessel requires massive amounts of energy and raw resources. Consequently, refinishing your current setup acts as an eco-friendly choice for our planet.
Are you ready to give your master bathroom the makeover it deserves this season? Taking action now stops minor cosmetic issues from turning into expensive plumbing nightmares later.
Our friendly local specialists arrive on time and treat your property with absolute respect. You get transparent pricing and honest advice without any high pressure sales tactics involved.
Every project comes with a solid guarantee to give you total confidence in our workmanship. That way, you know your investment is protected against peeling or bubbling.
White remains the most popular choice because it brightens up small or dark spaces instantly. However, custom color matching lets you coordinate the basin with your existing wall tile.
High gloss finishes reflect bathroom lighting and make the entire room feel much bigger. Meanwhile, satin finishes offer a modern look that hides water spots remarkably well.
Before our crew arrives, please remove all personal items like shampoo bottles and bath toys. This clears the workspace so we can get right to work without any delays.
Make sure our technicians have easy access to a working electrical outlet and running water. Such simple steps ensure the project goes off without a single hitch.

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 Oxoboxo River, 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.
