A dull or chipped tub in Pembroke does not need a demolition crew. It needs one technician, one day and a sprayed finish that shines.

(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 look at your bathroom every single day and wonder if that dingy, stained surface will ever shine again. Instead of ripping out the entire fixture and spending thousands of dollars on plumbing, you can opt for a smart, cost-effective restoration process that brings back that showroom luster in just a few hours. This budget-friendly magic transforms your worn-out wash basin by applying a high-performance coating right over the existing structure.
Our dedicated team loves bringing old surfaces back to life without the headache of demolition. When you choose to refinish rather than replace, you save valuable time and keep fully functional materials out of local landfills.

By choosing this advanced surface renewal method, you avoid the noisy chaos of contractors tearing up your floors and walls. Which means you can upgrade your daily bathing experience while keeping your hard-earned money in your pocket. Let us take a closer look at how this process works and why it makes so much sense for your property.
Many homeowners assume that a dull, stained basin is a goner and needs a trip to the scrapyard. However, the secret lies in prep work and industrial-grade bonding agents that fuse a new, incredibly durable topcoat to your existing porcelain or fiberglass. This specialized liquid glaze cures into a rock-hard defensive barrier that resists chips, scratches, and yellowing over time.
First, we meticulously clean the area with specialized solutions to strip away decades of soap scum, body oils, and hard water deposits. This step is absolutely crucial because the new finish needs a pristine, porous surface to latch onto properly. If there are any chips or deep scratches, we fill them in with heavy-duty waterproof compounds before we even touch the sprayer.
After that, we apply a proprietary bonding agent that acts like chemical velcro, ensuring the new acrylic coating sticks permanently. Finally, we spray several thin, even layers of premium glaze to build a deep, glossy finish that mimics original factory porcelain. You get a beautiful, easy-to-clean surface that looks brand new without the premium price tag.
To help you understand your choices, we compiled a quick comparison of what you can expect when upgrading your bathroom centerpieces. This table highlights why so many homeowners prefer our specialized surface restoration over traditional replacement methods.
| Factor to Consider | Full Replacement | Surface Glazing |
|---|---|---|
| Average Project Duration | 3 to 7 days of messy construction | Only 4 to 8 hours from start to finish |
| Mess and Dust Level | Extremely high dust, debris, and noise | Virtually none, with careful masking and ventilation |
| Overall Project Cost | Very expensive due to plumbing and tile work | Highly affordable, saving up to 70% of replacement costs |
| Lifespan of Finished Product | 15 to 20 years with proper care | 10 to 15 years with simple maintenance |
This comparison clearly shows how you can achieve your dream bathroom aesthetic without breaking the bank or losing access to your home for a week. On top of that, you can choose custom colors to match your updated decor perfectly. Our professional technicians handle every single detail so you do not have to lift a finger.

When our skilled technician arrives at your home, they start by setting up a heavy-duty exhaust system to safely vent any fumes outdoors. This ensures that your indoor air remains clean and comfortable while we work our magic on your fixture. We then carefully mask off all your tiles, floors, and vanity to protect your bathroom from any overspray.
Once the prep work is complete, we apply the specialized coatings using professional HVLP spray equipment for an incredibly smooth finish. This technique eliminates brush strokes and runs, leaving you with a factory-smooth surface that feels wonderful to the touch. We always clean up our workspace thoroughly, leaving your bathroom cleaner than we found it.
After we finish the application, you only need to wait about twenty-four hours for the advanced coatings to cure completely. Once cured, you can peel back the tape, reinstall your hardware, and enjoy a luxurious soak in your newly transformed basin. It really is that simple to get the beautiful bathroom you deserve without any of the typical remodeling stress.
Maintaining your restored fixture is incredibly easy because the non-porous surface naturally resists dirt and grime. You no longer need to scrub for hours with harsh abrasive powders or bleach, which actually scratch and dull the finish over time. Instead, a quick wipe down with a mild dish soap and a soft microfiber cloth keeps it looking brand new.
To preserve the glossy shine for years to come, we recommend avoiding bath mats with suction cups, as they can trap water and pull at the glaze. If you want a slip-resistant surface, just let us know beforehand, and we can easily apply a permanent textured safety bottom during the coating process. This helpful addition protects your family while keeping your beautiful new finish completely intact.
By following these simple care tips, you can extend the life of your restored fixture for well over a decade. Which means you get an incredible return on your investment while enjoying a clean, bright space every single day. We stand behind our work and are always here to answer any maintenance questions you might have down the road.

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 Pembroke, 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.
