A dull or chipped tub in Washington Heights 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.

Actually, everyday soap scum and harsh chemical cleaners constantly chew up your shiny finish over time. This heavy destruction leaves behind ugly yellow stains that plain scrubbing never cleans away. Furthermore, small microscopic scratches grab onto dark dirt and hold it tight forever.
Besides that mess, constantly staring at an outdated dirty pink fixture totally ruins your entire morning routine. Honestly, nobody likes relaxing inside a dingy washed-out washbasin after working hard all day long. Plus, water seeping down through tiny hairline cracks silently rots out your subfloor underneath.
Fortunately, you do not have to pay thousands to demolish your heavy cast iron water basin. Instead, our special surface sprayed restoration completely fixes everything up in just a few short hours. That means you keep your hard-earned money right inside your bank account where it belongs!
First off, hiring a full crew of plumbers to rip out heavy fixtures costs a total fortune. Besides, smashing down drywall creates huge clouds of nasty white dust that covers your whole house. Sometimes, old pipes break unexpectedly during aggressive removal and flood your nice floors beneath.
In addition to that nightmare, buying brand new replacement units forces you to pay crazy store delivery fees. Consequently, your simple weekend project quickly turns into a massive chaotic construction zone for several stressful weeks. Also, cheap modern acrylic replacements feel flimsy and break way too easily under heavy weight.
Thankfully, our simple spray coating approach totally avoids all those nasty messy headaches completely. Naturally, we roll up right to your cozy house and complete everything cleanly in a single fast afternoon visit. Therefore, you get a beautiful glossy surface without living through endless annoying home construction delays...
To begin with, we scrub your cast iron basin with heavy duty acid cleaners to remove hidden grease completely. After that deep cleaning step, our team carefully fills in every single chip with super strong waterproof epoxy resin filler. Next, we meticulously sand down the whole target area until it feels totally smooth as glass to touch.
Thereafter, we apply our specialized liquid bonding chemical primer across every inch of the prepared surface. Next up, we carefully spray several thick coats of high tech liquid synthetic porcelain glaze using professional industrial tools. Ultimately, this fresh chemical layer fuses directly into your original substrate to create a rock hard shield against daily wear.
Finally, we polish the entire area until it shines like bright clean glass under your bathroom lights. As a result, you get a gorgeous brilliant finish that resists nasty mold spores and stubborn soap scum stains effortlessly. Best of all, your custom surface stays super bright and lovely for many years down the road!
| Upgrade Option | Average Cost | Project Duration | Mess Factor |
|---|---|---|---|
| Full Fixture Demolition | High ($3,000+) | One To Two Weeks | Extremely Heavy Dust |
| Our Surface Coating Fix | Low (Very Affordable) | Four To Six Hours | Zero Destruction |
Right off the bat, you lock in a shiny bright washbasin that brightens up your whole home interior instantly. Additionally, our non-porous top seal coat prevents gross toxic mold growth from hiding in hidden microscopic cracks. Which means you spend way less time scrubbing dirty tiles on your hands and knees every single weekend!
On top of those perks, saving tons of cash lets you spend money on other fun home improvement projects instead. Furthermore, keeping your original heavy historic washbasin preserves classical vintage architecture charm inside older homes. Naturally, high quality vintage cast iron keeps water hot much longer than modern cheap flimsy hollow plastic units ever could.
What is more, our speedy application process lets you use your fully refreshed wash area in just twenty-four short hours. Indeed, local homeowners living near the lovely wall art community spots in Orange County love our rapid clean turnkey services. Plus, keeping your old functional fixture out of landfills genuinely helps protect our beautiful local environment for everyone!
First, check if your current gloss layer looks completely dull or feels super rough like coarse heavy sandpaper. Similarly, notice if strange orange rust spots are leaking out from underneath your shiny chrome drain ring edges. Whenever you spot those dark rusty spots, chemical erosion is already eating away deep into your heavy metal frame.
Moreover, ugly faded colors like vintage seafoam green or dingy salmon pink really drag down your home market value fast. Even worse, sharp chipped edges along the bottom floor can easily cut your soft bare feet during quick morning showers. So, fixing those sharp visual flaws quickly keeps your whole household completely safe from painful accidental cuts!
Clearly, ignoring these obvious warning signs always leads to much bigger expensive hidden structural water damage later on. Fortunately, catching these minor cosmetic problems early saves you tons of crazy repair stress down the line... Just call our local crew today to lock in your totally free estimate before things get worse!
Naturally, keeping your property looking top notch helps preserve overall equity inside your local housing market. For instance, families living around sunny ZIP codes like 10940 often want fast high quality property upgrades that do not break the bank. Considering the regional median household income sits around $97,344, smart affordable property improvements make total economic sense for everyone.
In fact, this quiet friendly area of 2,337 residents features many gorgeous older traditional homes that deserve proper structural love. Therefore, preserving original historic vintage fixtures helps retain authentic character while boosting overall kitchen and bathroom visual appeal tremendously. So, upgrading your functional wash basin provides an instant high return on investment whenever you decide to sell your home!

Because we truly value our warm local community, we always show up right on time and treat your residence with extreme respect. That means zero nasty toxic odors, no dirty tracks on your clean carpets, and zero messy stress for your whole family!
First of all, always wash your slick restored basin using gentle non-abrasive liquid soap sprays and soft microfiber towels. Because harsh abrasive scrubbing powders can scratch up the smooth shiny gloss coat, avoiding sharp tools keeps it looking brand new forever. Likewise, remember to fix dripping shower head leaks right away so pooling water never sits on top of your fresh drain sealant.
Additionally, stay far away from drop-in suction cup bath mats that trap moisture underneath their bottom rubber pads constantly. Instead, request our special built-in non-slip textured safety coating applied directly onto your bottom standing area during the primary coating process. Consequently, you enjoy safe slip-free morning showers while fully protecting your glossy seal from taking any unnecessary peeling damage!

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 Washington Heights, 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.
