A dull or chipped tub in White Lake 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 peeling porcelain basin every single morning. This worn-out surface makes your whole bathroom feel dingy, but you do not need a full demolition to fix it.
Replacing an old tub costs thousands of dollars and creates weeks of dusty, noisy construction headaches inside your home. Instead of ripping everything out, you can choose a smart, high-tech surface renewal process.
This simple fix transforms your bathroom, saves you massive amounts of cash, and restores that smooth finish you crave. By choosing this route, you skip the mess while getting a brand new look in just one day.
Imagine waking up to a pristine, glossy basin that feels brand new without the stress of contractors tearing down your walls. A full remodel turns your home into a construction zone for weeks on end, whereas our method finishes the job before you even get home from work.
Beyond the time savings, you keep more money in your pocket for other home improvements. Replacing a unit involves heavy plumbing bills, tile damage, and expensive disposal fees for the old junk.
Our specialized application fills in those annoying cracks, hides deep stains, and seals the porous surface. This process gives you a durable, moisture-resistant shield that stays clean and easy to maintain for years to come.
You might wonder how a simple coating can hold up against daily scrubbing and hot water. We use a high-bond primer that chemically fuses to the existing material, creating a rock-solid foundation.
Once that layer sets, we apply a high-performance acrylic polymer that mimics the look of new enamel. This layer creates a beautiful, deep shine that feels just as good as it looks.
Since we use professional-grade resins, the final result resists peeling and bubbling much better than any DIY kit from the hardware store. You deserve a bathroom that brings you total ease every time you step into the shower.
Living in this beautiful part of Michigan means you appreciate quality work that fits our local lifestyle. With over thirty thousand people calling this area home, you know how important it is to keep property values high.
Whether you reside in ZIP codes 48383 or 48386, you deserve a contractor who values your time and your budget. We take pride in serving our neighbors and ensuring every project reflects the character of our community.
First, we arrive at your house to prep the entire area by masking off the walls and floor with protective tape. This ensures that no stray particles land on your tile or fixtures while we work.
Next, we strip away all old caulk and clean the basin with a specialized acid wash to remove soap scum and mineral buildup. This deep cleaning step is crucial because it allows the new material to stick perfectly.
Then, we carefully spray the surface using a high-volume low-pressure machine to ensure an even, flawless coat. After the spray application, we let the material cure, which means you get a finish that is both hard and satisfying.
| Step | Benefit to You | |
|---|---|---|
| Deep cleaning | Ensures maximum adhesion and long life | |
| Masking | Protects your floors and walls from damage | |
| Spraying | Creates a smooth, even, and glossy look | |
| Curing | Provides a rock-hard surface for daily use |
Many people fear that a new finish will smell for a long time or wear off within a month. However, we use modern ventilation equipment to clear the air quickly, leaving your home smelling fresh again by the time we leave.
Because we follow strict industry standards, the bond strength is incredible and resists typical bathroom chemicals. You can scrub your tub like normal, provided you use mild, non-abrasive cleaners to keep that shine popping.
Sometimes you might read horror stories online about DIY kits failing after only a few weeks of use. Those kits lack the chemical bonding agents that professional equipment provides, which is why they usually peel away.
You are not stuck with boring white if you want to spice things up a bit. We offer a variety of shades that modernize your bathroom while keeping the classic vibe you like.
A bright, clean shade makes small bathrooms appear much larger and more open. If you prefer a darker, moodier look, we can accommodate that too, giving your space a custom, high-end feel.
Whatever color you choose, the durability remains exactly the same across the board. You get a lasting result that makes your morning routine feel like a trip to a luxury hotel.
Even if you do not plan on moving anytime soon, keeping your bathroom in top shape protects your biggest financial investment. Prospective buyers look closely at the condition of the wet areas in a home.
A fresh, spotless, and bright basin sends a signal that you take care of your property. It acts as an instant upgrade that costs a fraction of a full remodel but adds immense visual appeal.
When you decide to sell, you will not have to worry about showing a stained or dingy bathtub to strangers. You can feel confident knowing that your bathroom looks sharp and inviting for anyone who steps inside.
Waiting only allows stains to sink deeper into the porous surface of your old fixture. Over time, those tiny cracks grow larger and begin to harbor mold or mildew that is impossible to reach.
By fixing the surface today, you stop the damage before it ruins the structural integrity of your plumbing. Taking care of your fixtures early saves you from needing a full, costly replacement later on.

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 White Lake, 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.

The technician who picks up when you call works these streets, so the ledger below is home turf rather than trivia.
Somewhere under that worn surface is the tub you chose. One day brings it back.
