A dull or chipped tub in Ware Place 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.

First, let us talk about how this magic actually happens because most folks think you have to rip out the whole wall. Instead of doing that, we apply a high-tech liquid acrylic coating directly over your existing worn-out fixture. This means you do not have to pay for expensive plumbers or worry about broken tiles.
Because we use professional-grade bonding agents, the new finish fuses directly to the old cast iron or fiberglass. Consequently, your old eyesore becomes a glossy masterpiece that resists future stains and scratches. You will love how easy it is to clean the smooth surface after we finish our work.
To give you a better idea of how this compares to a full replacement, we put together a handy comparison table below.
| Factor | Our Specialized Coating | Full Tub Replacement |
|---|---|---|
| Total Cost | Very affordable and budget-friendly | Extremely expensive with plumbing labor |
| Time Required | Finished in just a few hours | Takes several days or weeks of mess |
| Demolition Mess | Absolutely zero dusty wall demolition | Tons of drywall dust and broken tile |
Since we live and work right around here, we know the local homes inside and out. For example, did you know that in our cozy little area of Ware Place, South Carolina, many houses still have their original vintage fixtures from decades ago? With a tiny local population of around 170 people, keeping our homes looking great while watching our budgets is super important to everyone.
Considering that the median household income around these parts is about $33,750, spending five grand on a bathroom remodel just does not make sense. On top of that, we love helping our neighbors save their hard-earned money for other important things in life. Our affordable service fits perfectly into your budget while giving you a luxury look that you can show off to guests.
Whether you live in the main part of town or nearby in the surrounding ZIP codes, we drive right to your doorstep. This convenient service means you do not have to lift a finger to get the beautiful bathroom you deserve.
Before we even open a single bottle of coating, our team thoroughly preps your old washbasin. First, we scrub away years of soap scum, mineral deposits, and old oils using specialized industrial cleaners. This critical step ensures that the new glossy layer sticks perfectly without any peeling down the road.
Next, we carefully repair any deep chips, rust spots, or ugly cracks that have been bothering you for years. By filling these imperfections with a waterproof polyester putty, we create a perfectly flat canvas for the final layers. This attention to detail is what separates a amateur DIY job from a gorgeous, lasting finish.
After that, we mask off your entire bathroom with protective paper and plastic sheets to shield your walls and floors. Then, we use a professional spray system to apply multiple coats of our premium topcoat. Once it cures, your bathroom is ready for a relaxing soak in no time at all.
Now, keeping your newly coated surface looking spectacular is actually incredibly simple. You just need to avoid harsh abrasive cleansers like bleach or scrubbing powders that can scratch the glossy shine. Instead, we recommend using mild dish soap or gentle liquid cleaners with a soft sponge.
This simple care routine prevents soap scum buildup and keeps the surface reflecting light beautifully. Which means you spend less time scrubbing on your weekends and more time enjoying your life. Your back and knees will definitely thank you for making the switch to an easy-to-clean surface.
Perhaps you are wondering if your specific tub is too far gone for this kind of treatment. Well, almost any cast iron, steel, or fiberglass basin can be successfully restored to its former glory. Even if your tub has some rust around the drain, we can usually fix it right up.
However, if your fixture is literally rusted all the way through with giant holes, then it might be past saving. But for 95% of the homes we visit, our restoration process works like an absolute charm. We will always give you an honest opinion during our free assessment so you know exactly what to expect.
Besides saving your bank account, choosing to refinish your existing basin is also a massive win for the environment. Think about the sheer volume of heavy cast iron and fiberglass that ends up clogging our local landfills every single year. By restoring what you already have, you keep heavy waste out of the dump and reduce your carbon footprint.
On top of that, manufacturing and shipping a brand-new heavy tub uses a ton of fossil fuels. Our eco-friendly approach utilizes your existing structure, which is often sturdier than the cheap plastic tubs sold in big-box stores today. You get to keep that solid, high-quality old-school craftsmanship while enjoying a sparkling clean look.
So, you get a gorgeous bathroom, save thousands of dollars, and do something nice for the planet all at once... talk about a total win-win situation!
Are you ready to finally get rid of that ugly, stained tub and start fresh? Our friendly team is standing by to help you plan your budget-friendly bathroom transformation. We pride ourselves on showing up on time, answering all your questions, and treating your home with the utmost respect.

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 Ware Place, 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.
