A dull or chipped tub in Wallace Ridge 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.
You can instantly transform your outdated bathroom today without spending a fortune on messy demolition. Our specialized resurfacing method breathes fresh life into your worn out washing basin right inside your home. By choosing our local refinishing services you will save thousands of dollars and avoid weeks of chaotic construction dust.
First you might wonder how we actually make those ugly stains and scratches disappear. Well our skilled hands apply a high performance liquid acrylic coating over your existing cast iron or steel tub. Naturally this thick durable layer bonds on a molecular level to create a glossy finish that looks identical to brand new porcelain.
Actually the secret lies in our meticulous preparation steps which involve deep cleaning and etching the old enamel. Because we use commercial grade bonding agents the fresh coating will never peel or bubble under daily use. Consequently you get a sparkling clean wash basin that feels incredibly smooth to the touch and resists future soap scum buildup.
To help you compare your options we built a quick breakdown of how our refinishing method stacks up against traditional remodeling:
| Feature | Our Refinishing Service | Full Tub Replacement |
|---|---|---|
| Total Cost | Very affordable and budget friendly | Extremely expensive with high labor fees |
| Time to Complete | Finished in just a few hours | Takes several days or even weeks |
| Mess and Dust | Virtually none with careful masking | Massive amount of drywall and tile dust |
| Lifespan | Lasts 10 to 15 years with basic care | Decades but requires major upfront hassle |
Since our process keeps your original fixture right where it is you do not have to worry about hiring expensive plumbers to reroute your old pipes. This means you keep more money in your wallet while still enjoying a stunning bathroom upgrade. Truly it is the smartest shortcut to a beautiful home interior.
Perhaps you live in a charming rural neighborhood in Catahoula Parish where quiet country living is the absolute norm. With a local population of just eight hundred sixty-seven residents according to recent census data news of good craftsmanship travels fast by word of mouth. Our neighbors here appreciate hard work and smart financial choices which is why our cost effective services are so popular.
Since the median household income in this beautiful corner of Louisiana sits around seventy-three thousand eight hundred eighty-four dollars spending ten grand on a bathroom remodel just does not make sense. Whether you reside in the local ZIP code 71343 area or nearby we bring our mobile workshop straight to your driveway. You receive top tier service from friendly folks who treat your property with genuine respect.
On top of that we know how humid our southern weather gets which can make bathroom mildew a constant battle. Our non porous glossy topcoat prevents mold from taking root in those tiny microscopic cracks that old worn out surfaces usually have. Therefore you will spend way less time scrubbing on your hands and knees with harsh chemical cleaners.
Initially we protect your bathroom floor and walls by taping down heavy duty plastic sheeting. This step ensures that no overspray or dust lands on your vanity, toilet, or nice floor tiles. Next we use specialized cleaners to strip away decades of body oils, soap scum, and old hard water deposits.
Following that thorough wash we repair any deep chips or rust spots using a waterproof polyester filler. After sanding those patches perfectly flat we apply our proprietary acid etching agent to roughen up the old porcelain glaze. This critical step creates millions of microscopic pores so our new coating can grab hold tightly.
Now we spray multiple layers of a premium aliphatic acrylic polyurethane using professional high volume low pressure equipment. This advanced spray system guarantees an incredibly even finish without any brush marks or unsightly drips. Once the final clear coat cures you are left with a deep luxurious shine that oozes cleanliness.
Eventually we remove all our masking tape and clean up our work area so your bathroom looks spotless. We recommend letting the fresh surface cure for twenty-four hours before you turn on the faucet. After that brief wait you are free to enjoy a relaxing soak in your revived tub.
Happily keeping your shiny surface clean requires almost zero effort on your part. You must avoid abrasive scouring powders or rough scrub sponges because they can scratch the glossy protective layer over time. Instead you simply wipe the surface down with a mild liquid dish soap and a soft microfiber cloth.
Occasionally giving the surface a quick rinse after your shower will prevent soap film from building up. If you want to keep that showroom shine alive you can even apply a non abrasive car wax once a year. This simple trick keeps the water sliding right down the drain and preserves the brilliant luster.
Unfortunately using heavy bath mats with suction cups on the bottom can eventually pull at the new finish. We suggest using a soft fabric bath mat outside the tub instead to keep your beautiful finish completely safe. By following these easy guidelines your restored basin will look gorgeous for up to fifteen years.
Are you ready to say goodbye to that ugly outdated color scheme and those embarrassing rust stains. We make the entire process incredibly easy for you by offering completely free on site consultations. Our friendly team will inspect your bathroom fixture, explain your color options, and give you an honest upfront price quote.

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 Wallace Ridge, 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.
