A dull or chipped tub in Schlusser 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.
Is your old bathroom looking terribly outdated and stained?
Fortunately, you can completely transform your dingy washing basin without paying for an expensive and messy demolition project. This smart alternative saves you thousands of dollars while giving your bathroom a fresh, clean look.
Many homeowners think they have to rip out their entire wash basin when the surface gets dull, stained, or scratched. However, doing a complete replacement usually requires hiring plumbers, buying expensive new fixtures, and dealing with piles of dusty debris for days on end. This hassle can quickly drain your wallet and leave you without a usable washroom for a week.
Instead of going through that nightmare, you can choose a highly effective resurfacing process that makes your tub look brand new in just one day. This method involves applying a durable, high-gloss coating directly over your existing fixture, which seals up cracks and erases ugly stains. You get the exact same visual upgrade as a brand-new installation for a tiny fraction of the price.
Our skilled local team specializes in this exact renewing process, bringing top-tier craftsmanship right to your doorstep. We take great pride in helping our neighbors update their homes quickly and affordably. To see how much you can save, simply request a free estimate from us today.
To achieve a flawless, factory-like finish that lasts for years, we follow a very strict multi-step system. First, we thoroughly clean the surface with specialized heavy-duty cleaners to remove all soap scum, body oils, and mineral deposits. If we skip this deep cleaning step, the new coating will not stick properly and could peel off later.
Next, we carefully repair any deep chips, rust spots, or cracks using a high-strength polyester filler. Once the repairs dry, we sand them completely flat so the damage vanishes under the new layers. This meticulous preparation work ensures that the final result looks perfectly smooth and feels incredibly sleek to the touch.
After that, we apply a proprietary bonding agent that chemically welds the new finish to the old porcelain or fiberglass. Then, we spray several coats of a high-tech acrylic polymer topcoat using professional spray equipment. This creates a gorgeous, non-porous barrier that resists impact, prevents future staining, and restores the ultimate shine to your wash area.
| Project Step | What We Do | Benefit to You |
|---|---|---|
| Deep Cleaning | Remove all soap scum and oils | Ensures the new finish bonds permanently |
| Surface Repair | Fix chips, cracks, and rust spots | Creates a perfectly smooth, leak-free basin |
| Bonding Agent | Apply chemical fusion primer | Prevents peeling and bubbling over time |
| Acrylic Topcoat | Spray multiple high-gloss layers | Delivers a beautiful, easy-to-clean shine |
If you choose to tear out your old tub, you will likely run into unexpected plumbing issues behind the walls. Older homes often have corroded pipes that break during demolition, which forces you to pay for emergency plumbing repairs. Resurfacing avoids this risk entirely because we never disturb your existing pipes or wall tiles.
On top of that, replacing a tub usually means you must destroy the surrounding wall tiles to get the old unit out. This means you have to pay for new tiling, drywall repair, and painting, which inflates your final bill significantly. Our non-invasive process keeps your beautiful surrounding tile work completely intact and safe from harm.
Another major benefit of our service is the incredible amount of time you save. While a full bathroom remodel can drag on for weeks, our process takes only a single afternoon to complete. This means you can go back to using your gorgeous, refreshed bathroom the very next day without any major disruptions to your daily routine.
To keep your newly coated basin looking spectacular for many years, you must use the right cleaning products. You should always avoid harsh abrasive powders, bleach, or rough scrubbing pads, which can dull the shiny finish over time. Instead, a simple wipe down with a mild liquid dish soap and a soft sponge is all you need.
Additionally, you must avoid using bath mats with suction cups on the bottom because they can trap water and weaken the bond of the new coating. If you want a non-slip surface, just let us know before we start spraying, and we can easily apply a permanent slip-resistant texture to the floor of your tub. This built-in safety feature keeps your family safe without damaging the beautiful new finish.
By following these simple care tips, your restored fixture will maintain its brilliant shine and smooth texture for up to fifteen years. This long-term durability makes our service an incredibly smart investment for any homeowner. We are always happy to share more maintenance tips during your free estimate consultation.

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 Schlusser, 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.

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