A dull or chipped tub in West Statesville 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.

Naturally many homeowners think they need to buy a whole new setup when things look dingy. However the actual cost of yankin out an old cast iron basin is absolutely wild. You often have to break tiles and sometimes even widen the doorway just to get the old one out.
On top of that you have to pay plumbers to hook up the new drains. This easily turns a simple weekend project into a massive financial headache. Our affordable surface renewal process bypasses all that stress while giving you the exact same beautiful result.
Consequently you keep your original heavy duty fixture while enjoying a pristine modern finish. We use high tech chemical bonding agents that lock onto the old porcelain. Which means your fresh coating will not peel or bubble up when you take hot showers.
Let us look at how our restoration method stacks up against traditional replacement:
| Factor | Our Renewal Process | Full Replacement |
|---|---|---|
| Total Cost | Very budget friendly | Extremely expensive |
| Time Needed | Usually under 24 hours | Several days or weeks |
| Mess Level | Virtually none | Dust and debris everywhere |
First we clean the area with specialized solutions to strip away decades of soap scum. This prep step is actually the most important part of the entire job. If a worker rushes this part the new coating will fail almost immediately.
Next we repair any deep chips or rust spots with a heavy duty waterproof filler. This makes the dingy old surface completely smooth to the touch again. Then we apply a molecular bonding agent that acts like superglue for the new liquid acrylic.
Finally we spray multiple layers of topcoat using professional high volume low pressure equipment. This advanced sprayer guarantees a glassy smooth finish without any brush marks or runs. You end up with a gorgeous glossy wash station that feels incredibly luxurious.
Naturally you might worry about strong odors or overspray getting on your walls. This is why we set up powerful exhaust fans to vent the air directly outside. We also tape off every single inch of your bathroom to protect your vanity and floors.
After we pack up our gear you will not find a single drop of paint where it should not be. Our crew respects your property like it is our own family home. You can trust us to leave the workspace cleaner than we found it.
To keep that brilliant shine you just need to avoid harsh abrasive cleaners. Bleach and scratchy scrub sponges will eventually dull the beautiful glossy protective layer. Instead you simply wipe it down with a mild dish soap and a soft microfiber cloth.
This easy maintenance routine keeps your wash area looking brand new for many years to come. It actually saves you tons of scrubbing time during your weekend cleaning chores. You get to spend more time relaxing and less time scraping away grime.
We love serving our neighbors right here in this beautiful slice of North Carolina. Our community of over twenty four thousand residents deserves top notch home services without big city prices. Whether you live near the historic downtown district or out in the quiet suburbs we come directly to you.
Many homes in West Statesville feature classic mid century styling that is worth preserving. Those older cast iron fixtures are built way better than the cheap plastic ones sold today. Our restoration work honors that vintage craftsmanship while updating the color to match your modern style.
We know the local water conditions can cause stubborn red clay stains and mineral buildup. Our tough coatings are specially designed to resist these harsh elements so your basin stays bright white. We proudly serve the local 28677 and 28625 neighborhoods with reliable punctual service.
Certainly we want to be completely transparent about what this service can and cannot do. This is not a magic wand that fixes a structurally cracked or crumbling plastic shell. However it is the absolute best option for solid steel or cast iron structures that just look ugly.
One minor downside is that you have to let the finish cure for at least twenty four hours before wetting it. This means you need to plan your shower schedule ahead of time. But we think a single day of waiting is worth saving thousands of dollars.
Another benefit is that we can customize the color to fit your exact design goals. If you hate that outdated avocado green or dusty pink we can turn it into a clean modern white. This simple change instantly brightens up your entire room and makes it feel much larger.
Now is the perfect time to finally do something about that embarrassing guest bathroom. You do not have to feel ashamed when friends come over to visit. Our friendly team is ready to give you a detailed price breakdown at absolutely no cost to you.
We will inspect your fixture and explain every step of our process so you know exactly what to expect. This free quote comes with zero obligations because we believe in earning your business through honesty. We want to help you fall in love with your home all over again.
Simply reach out to us today to schedule your quick consultation. We will find a time that works perfectly with your busy weekly schedule. Let us handle the hard work while you sit back and enjoy the stunning transformation.
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 West Statesville, 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.
