A dull or chipped tub in Tracyton 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.

Many folks believe that once a tub loses its shine, the only option is to rip it out with a sledgehammer. Actually, that process often damages your beautiful wall tiles, your flooring, and the surrounding plumbing fixtures. Our specialized service bypasses all that chaos by chemically bonding a brand-new, durable coating directly onto your existing cast iron, steel, or fiberglass basin.
This meticulous process begins with a deep, industrial-strength cleaning to remove decades of soap scum, body oils, and hard water deposits. After that, we repair any deep gouges, chips, or cracks using waterproof polyester resins. Finally, we spray on a high-tech primer followed by several coats of an incredibly tough acrylic polyurethane gloss.
| Restoration Stage | Concrete Benefit to You |
|---|---|
| Chemical Deep Clean | Removes hidden contaminants so the new finish sticks forever. |
| Surface Repair | Fixes ugly chips and cracks so your tub feels perfectly smooth. |
| Acrylic Coating | Creates a brilliant, non-porous shield that is super easy to clean. |
Which means you get a surface that looks identical to a brand-new showroom model for a fraction of the price. On top of that, the entire job takes only a single day to complete. You can even start using your rejuvenated shower again after just twenty-four hours of curing time.
Living in this beautiful Pacific Northwest corner means we appreciate keeping things local, sustainable, and smart. With a cozy community population of 5,933 residents, many of our neighbors reside in charming homes built several decades ago. These older properties often feature incredibly sturdy, heavy cast iron basins that are actually much higher quality than the cheap plastic tubs sold today.
Keeping those original, heavy-duty fixtures makes total sense when you realize how durable they are. Our local median household income sits around $71,225, so we all know the value of a hard-earned dollar. Spending your savings on expensive contractors, permits, and plumbers feels like a waste when you can achieve the exact same look for way less cash.
Whether you are located near the scenic shoreline or up in the hills within the 98393 ZIP code, our mobile service team travels directly to your doorstep. We bring all our professional ventilation gear to ensure your home remains safe, clean, and odor-free during the application. This local focus allows us to provide personalized, friendly service to every single family we visit.
Let us talk about the real numbers because the big box stores love to hide the extra fees of remodeling. You might see a new tub online for a couple hundred bucks and think it is a total steal. However, you must factor in the cost of hiring a licensed plumber to hook up the new drain lines.
Then, you have to pay carpenters to fix the drywall and tile specialists to repair the walls you just destroyed. Suddenly, that simple weekend project balloons into a multi-week nightmare costing thousands of dollars. Choosing our surface refinishing method eliminates all those scary surprise bills from your life.
This smart choice keeps your bathroom fully functional without turning your home into a dusty, noisy construction zone. Plus, you will not have to deal with pushy subcontractors trampling through your hallways for weeks on end. We slip in, do our magic, clean up every speck of dust, and leave you with a dazzling space.
Once we finish our work, you will want to keep that brilliant luster looking pristine for a very long time. Fortunately, taking care of a restored surface is actually much easier than dealing with old, porous porcelain. Because the new acrylic barrier is completely non-porous, dirt and grime have a very hard time sticking to it.
You should absolutely avoid harsh abrasive powders, bleach, or scratchy scrub pads when cleaning. Instead, simply wipe down the area with a mild liquid dish soap or a gentle spray cleaner and a soft microfiber cloth. This simple routine protects the glossy topcoat and keeps it sparkling like new for up to fifteen years.
To help you compare your options, let us look at how restoration stacks up against other common bathroom updates:
| Project Option | Average Duration | Mess and Dust Level | Overall Cost |
|---|---|---|---|
| Full Demolition | 1 to 2 Weeks | Extremely High | Very Expensive |
| Plastic Tub Liners | 2 to 3 Days | Moderate | Expensive |
| Our Coating Service | 4 to 6 Hours | Very Low | Highly Affordable |
Now, you can see why so many smart homeowners prefer our efficient approach. It simply offers the best balance of speed, durability, and cost-effectiveness. Why deal with endless construction stress when a simple one-day transformation is just a quick phone call away?

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 Tracyton, 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.
