All over Roane 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.
Are you tired of looking at that scratched, stained, or ugly tub in your master bath? You can save thousands by choosing a surface renewal process instead of ripping everything out for a full remodel.
Imagine walking into your bathroom and seeing a sparkling, fresh finish that looks brand new for a fraction of the cost of a replacement. This local service helps you achieve a high-end look without the massive headache of demolition or the dust that comes with a total bathroom overhaul.
Most people do not realize that their old cast iron or porcelain basin still has a solid structure underneath all that grime and discoloration. Instead of dealing with the mess of tearing out the old unit, our team applies a durable chemical bonding agent that creates a brand new, glossy surface. This means you avoid the stress of plumbing changes and expensive wall tile repairs that usually happen when you pull out a heavy tub.
Because our crew works directly in your home, you get the benefit of a renovated space in just one or two days. You will find that this method provides a much better sense of ease compared to the weeks of construction needed for a traditional swap. Plus, the final product is incredibly smooth and easy to clean, keeping your daily chores simple and efficient.
First, we carefully clean the old fixture to remove every speck of soap scum, mineral deposit, and old caulk that has built up over the decades. Then, we apply a specialized primer that ensures the new material grabs onto the existing surface with a grip that lasts for years. This technical preparation is the secret to a result that does not peel or chip away after only a few months of heavy use.
After the primer, we spray on a high-grade synthetic coating that levels itself out to a mirror-like finish. You will notice that your old, dull basin suddenly glows with a fresh luster that reflects the light in the room perfectly. This process not only looks great but also fills in those tiny porous cracks where bacteria and mold love to hide, which keeps your living environment much cleaner.

You might wonder if this new coating will hold up against daily showers and harsh cleaning products. The truth is that with proper care, this finish remains strong and shiny for a very long time. We recommend using gentle, non-abrasive cleaners to maintain that perfect luster, which helps keep the surface looking fantastic for years after we leave.
Because we use high-performance materials, the finish resists the wear and tear that usually destroys standard porcelain over time. You will find that even with a busy household, your refreshed fixture stays resilient against the challenges of daily use. It is a smart, sustainable way to keep your home in great shape without constantly replacing perfectly good, heavy fixtures.
Before we arrive, clearing out your vanity tops and removing any personal items like shampoo bottles or razors helps us get to work faster. We do the heavy lifting when it comes to the technical masking and surface preparation, but a clear workspace lets us focus entirely on the quality of the finish. You do not need to do any major prep work because we handle the cleaning and sanding ourselves.
Once we are finished, we leave your bathroom area just as clean as we found it, minus the ugly tub, of course. You will notice that the air quality remains good because we use modern methods to control any odors during the curing phase. This means you can get back to your regular routine as quickly as possible without any lingering smells or debris.
Choosing to refresh instead of replace is the most intelligent path forward for any homeowner looking to improve their space.

Do not wait until the damage gets worse, as acting now preserves the integrity of your fixtures and saves you from future headaches.
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.
