A dull or chipped tub in Walters 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You probably stare at that stained, chipped, or outdated basin in your bathroom and wish for a miracle. Luckily, you can transform your tired, old bathing vessel into a gleaming centerpiece without spending a fortune on a complete renovation.
This service involves applying a specialized, durable polymer coating that seals the surface of your existing unit. By choosing this route, you save thousands of dollars while keeping your home looking fresh and updated.
Getting rid of a scratched or discolored tub usually feels like a massive chore that involves tearing up your floors and walls. However, our process avoids the demolition dust and the nightmare of weeks without a working bathroom.
You get a smooth, glossy finish that feels wonderful to the touch and creates a sense of total ease in your daily routine. This method provides the luxury feel you want without the mess of a full gut job.
Choosing this route means you avoid the high costs of buying a new unit and paying for professional plumbing labor. You actually help the environment by keeping old materials out of the landfill while giving your bathroom a high-quality upgrade.
Because we use industrial-grade chemicals and advanced bonding agents, your updated surface will withstand years of daily scrubbings. This means you enjoy a refreshed space that remains easy to clean and maintains its luster for a very long time.
First, we thoroughly clean and strip the old surface to remove any soap scum, mineral deposits, or failing coatings from previous years. Next, we repair any cracks or chips using special fillers that harden into a rock-solid foundation for the final finish.
Finally, we spray a high-performance, heat-cured finish that dries into a hard, non-porous shell. This layer creates a beautiful, seamless barrier that resists mildew and stains far better than the original factory surface ever could.

You might worry that the new surface will peel or look fake after only a few months of heavy use. Fortunately, our technicians follow a rigorous multi-step protocol that ensures the coating bonds perfectly to the substrate of your tub.
Some people assume that a DIY kit from the store will give the same result for cheaper. Truthfully, those kits often yellow quickly and lack the necessary durability to handle hot water and cleaning products.
Once the work is complete, you only need to use mild, non-abrasive cleaners to keep everything looking fantastic. You should avoid harsh chemicals or scrub brushes that contain steel wool, as these can scratch the smooth finish over time.
By treating your revitalized fixture with just a little bit of care, you ensure it stays shiny for as long as possible. This extra bit of attention guarantees that you get the most value out of your investment every single day.
When you compare the total price of buying a new tub, paying for a plumber, and hiring a carpenter, the numbers add up fast. You might find that the cost of a full remodel exceeds your budget by a massive margin.
On the other hand, our surface restoration service costs a fraction of that total while delivering nearly identical visual results. You get to spend your saved money on other projects that make your house feel like a home.
Making the decision to renew your existing fixture allows you to keep the character of your home while fixing the ugly parts. You do not have to worry about the plumbing lines being disturbed or the possibility of hidden mold behind the walls.
This gives you total peace of mind throughout the entire process. You walk away with a bathroom that looks like it belongs in a magazine without the stress of a major construction site in your home.
During the application process, we always use high-powered ventilation systems to move air safely out of your living space. This keeps the environment safe for your family while we work our magic on your bathroom.
You can relax knowing that we take all the necessary safety precautions while we transform your space. We treat your house with the same respect as if it were our own property.

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 Walters, 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.
