All over Shelby 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.
Maybe your old wash basin looks like it went through a war zone. This happens to everyone eventually. But you can actually fix this mess without tearing down your walls.
Our skilled crew travels right to your home to handle this exact headache. We specialize in giving tired, stained washing basins a brand-new, glossy protective layer. You will save thousands of dollars compared to a messy, weeks-long construction project.
To make things even sweeter, we offer a completely free service estimate. This means you get to know the exact cost upfront. No hidden fees or weird surprises will pop up later.
First, we carefully scrape away the years of soap scum and mineral buildup. Which is crucial because the new coating won't stick to grime. Then, we repair any deep chips or ugly rust spots that look like eyesores.
Next, we apply a special bonding agent that acts like superglue for the new finish. After that, we spray on several coats of high-tech acrylic polymer. This creates a gorgeous, durable surface that shines like polished glass.
Finally, we let the new topcoat cure completely so it hardens into a rock-solid shield. Consequently, you get a sparkling surface that feels incredibly smooth to the touch. You will feel like you just bought a brand-new tub from the store.
Think about the sheer nightmare of ripping out a heavy cast iron basin. You have to hire plumbers, pay for expensive demolition, and deal with tons of drywall dust. On top of that, your bathroom becomes a construction zone for at least a week.
Choosing our specialized resurfacing method avoids all of that chaotic mess. We finish the entire job in just a few hours. That means you can use your shower again the very next day.
Furthermore, we keep your hard-earned money in your wallet where it belongs. Why spend a fortune on retail markups when a simple face-lift does the trick? Our budget-friendly process delivers the exact same visual wow factor for a fraction of the cost.
| Project Type | Average Cost | Time to Complete | Mess Level |
|---|---|---|---|
| Full Demolition and Replacement | Very High | 5 to 9 Days | Extremely Dusty |

Deep in the piney woods of the Lone Star State, homeowners take great pride in keeping their properties beautiful. This lovely area, bordered by the scenic Sabine River, boasts a rich history of timber and agriculture. We love serving this tight-knit community of hard-working folks.
Our mobile team regularly services neighborhoods across the region, from Center to Joaquin and Tenaha. Whether you live in a historic farmhouse or a modern ranch, we bring our top-tier equipment right to your door. We know the local water quality can be tough on plumbing fixtures, causing ugly orange iron stains over time.
Fortunately, our heavy-duty coating resists these stubborn stains much better than old, porous porcelain. This means you will spend way less time scrubbing on your hands and knees with harsh chemicals. A simple wipe down with mild soap keeps everything looking pristine.
Many people worry that a sprayed-on finish will peel off after a few hot showers. This only happens when contractors cut corners or use cheap, store-bought DIY kits. We use industrial-grade chemical cleaners and professional spray guns for a flawless bond.
Our primer chemically fuses with the original porcelain on a molecular level. This prevents moisture from getting underneath the new layer and causing bubbles. Because of this meticulous preparation, your new surface will look spectacular for many years to come.
Actually, our finished work easily stands up to daily family use and hot baths. This is because we refuse to skip steps during the critical cleaning and etching phases. You get a reliable, long-lasting solution that looks identical to a brand-new factory finish.
If you plan to sell your house soon, an ugly bathroom will scare away potential buyers. Buyers immediately calculate the massive cost of a remodel and lower their offers. A bright, clean wash area makes the entire room feel fresh and inviting.
Investing in our quick surface restoration process gives you an incredible return on your money. It represents one of the smartest cosmetic upgrades a homeowner can make before putting a house on the market. You get to show off a modern, sparkling bathroom without spending your life savings.
Even if you plan to stay in your home forever, you deserve a space that feels relaxing. Nobody wants to step into a dingy, stained shower at the end of a long workday. We turn your bathroom into a clean oasis where you can actually enjoy your daily routine.
Taking care of your upgraded fixture is incredibly simple and requires very little effort. You must avoid abrasive scouring powders or steel wool pads that scratch the shiny topcoat. Instead, use gentle liquid cleaners and a soft sponge to keep it clean.
This simple habit prevents micro-scratches where dirt and soap scum love to hide. By keeping the surface smooth, you ensure the brilliant shine lasts for a decade or more. We will give you a detailed care sheet after we finish the job so you know exactly what to do.
Remember to fix any leaky faucets quickly because constant dripping can eventually wear down any finish. With just a tiny bit of basic maintenance, your restored wash basin will remain a highlight of your home. You will love how easy it is to keep clean compared to the old, rough porcelain.
Are you ready to transform your outdated bathroom without breaking the bank? Our friendly local team is standing by to help you take the first step. We will answer all your questions and explain the entire process clearly.
Contact us right now to request your 100% free service estimate. We will look at your specific project and give you an honest, upfront price. Let us bring the shine back to your home today!
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.
