A dull or chipped tub in Valparaiso 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.

Plucking a heavy cast iron or steel tub out of your home is a absolute nightmare.

Think about the peace of mind you will feel when the job is done so quickly.
Naturally, you also avoid having strangers tramping through your house for a week straight.
We simply walk in, do our magic, clean up after ourselves, and leave you with a sparkling surface.
First, we meticulously clean the old surface using specialized industrial cleaners to strip away decades of soap scum and mineral deposits.
This step is super important because even a tiny speck of oil can ruin the bond of the new coating.
We take our time here to ensure the foundation is absolutely perfect for the next steps.
Next, we repair any deep scratches, chips, or rust spots using high-strength polyester fillers.
Once those patches dry, we sand them completely flat so you can never feel where the damage used to be.
This restores the structural integrity of your basin before we even think about applying the shiny stuff.
After that, we apply a proprietary bonding agent that chemically fuses the new topcoat to the old porcelain or fiberglass.
Then, our technician uses professional spray equipment to lay down multiple layers of high-tech acrylic polymer.
This meticulous application creates a deep, rich luster that looks just like brand-new factory enamel.
Many cheap DIY kits from the local hardware store fail within just a few months.
Indeed, those rolled-on epoxy products brush on thick, leave ugly brush marks, and peel off when you run hot water.
Our commercial-grade materials require professional spray ventilation and precise temperature control to cure properly.
We use a specialized molecular bonding agent that DIYers simply cannot buy.
This ensures your new surface will not bubble, crack, or peel even under daily heavy use.
You get a beautiful, uniform finish that feels smooth to the touch and cleans up with just a simple wipe.
We understand that home repairs can feel incredibly stressful and overwhelming.
Specifically, if you live in our lovely coastal community of 5,035 residents in Okaloosa County, Florida, you know how important it is to find honest local help.
With a local median household income of $55,882, we know that every dollar you invest in your home must deliver real, lasting value.
Our service area covers everyone around the 32580 ZIP code, offering fast scheduling and friendly faces.
Whether you reside near the scenic bayous or closer to the airfield, we arrive on time and ready to work.
We treat your bathroom with the utmost respect, masking off your walls, floors, and vanity to prevent any overspray.
We do not believe in pushy sales tactics or hidden fees that pop up at the end of the day.
Instead, we give you a straightforward, written price quote right after inspecting your current bathroom setup.
This open communication helps us build trust with our neighbors, one beautiful bathroom at a time.
Maintaining your restored basin is actually much easier than dealing with old, porous porcelain.
This is because the new non-porous finish naturally resists dirt, mold, and stubborn hard water stains.
You will spend far less time scrubbing on your hands and knees with harsh, smelly chemicals.
To keep the shine bright, you simply need to use mild soap and a soft sponge.
Avoid abrasive powders or scratchy green scrub pads, which can dull any glossy finish over time.
Following these easy care tips keeps your bathroom looking like a luxury hotel retreat for many years to come.
Sometimes, customers ask us if they can use bath mats with suction cups on the new surface.
We always advise against this because those suction cups can pull on the coating and eventually damage the bond.
Instead, we can apply a permanent, slip-resistant texture to the bottom of your tub during our process for your safety.
Are you ready to finally say goodbye to that ugly, stained bathroom eyesore once and for all?
We make the entire process incredibly simple, starting with a friendly, zero-obligation home visit.
Our technician will inspect your tub, explain your color options, and hand you a precise price estimate on the spot.
Do not waste your weekends scrubbing a surface that will never look clean no matter how hard you work.
Let our local family-owned business handle the dirty work while you sit back and relax.
We look forward to meeting you, discussing your project, and giving your bathroom the beautiful face-lift it deserves.
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 Valparaiso, 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.
