All over Yadkin County, worn bathtubs are resurfaced in place: repairs first, gloss second, fresh caulk on the way out.
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.
That ugly, stained bathroom fixture is probably driving you crazy every single day. Instead of paying thousands of dollars to rip it out, you can choose a smart, budget-friendly alternative that makes it look brand new in just a few hours. Our local team comes right to your home in the Yadkin Valley area to spray a durable, glossy new protective coating over your existing basin.
This simple process completely erases years of hard water stains, deep scratches, and ugly rust spots. You will save a mountain of cash compared to hiring a plumber and a tile setter. Let us handle the hard work and give you a beautiful, shiny surface that you can actually enjoy soaking in again.
Why live with an eyesore when a quick transformation is just a quick phone call away? We offer completely free on-site consultations to look at your setup and give you an honest price. You can easily request your free estimate today and take the first step toward a bathroom you can be proud of.
Many homeowners assume they have to throw away a solid cast iron or steel tub just because the color is outdated or the finish has gone dull. Fortunately, our special restoration process applies a liquid acrylic coating that bonds directly to the original structure on a molecular level. This means you get a thick, glassy layer that looks identical to brand new porcelain without the nightmare of demolition.
To start, we thoroughly clean the area with specialized acid-free cleaners to strip away decades of soap scum and body oils. After that, we repair any deep chips or cracks using a heavy-duty polyester filler that cures incredibly fast. Then, we spray on a proprietary bonding agent that acts like superglue between the old surface and the new topcoat.
Finally, we apply several layers of high-tech acrylic urethane using a professional HVLP spray system for a flawless, mirror-like gloss. This advanced material dries incredibly tough, resists impacts, and prevents mold from taking root in porous older surfaces. You get a brilliant, easy-to-clean basin that looks like it just rolled off the factory showroom floor.
| Project Expenses | Demolition and Full Replacement | Our Professional Coating Process |
|---|---|---|
| Average Cost | $3,000 - $8,000 | $350 - $650 |
| Time to Complete | 3 to 7 Days of Chaos | 4 to 6 Hours Total |
| Mess and Dust | Drywall dust, broken tile, major debris | Zero construction mess, fully contained |
| Plumbing Hazards | High risk of breaking old pipes behind walls | No plumbing modifications needed at all |
Looking at those numbers makes it pretty obvious why smart property owners choose to restore rather than replace. On top of the raw financial savings, you avoid having dusty construction workers stomping through your hallways for a week straight. Our process keeps your home clean, quiet, and completely functional.
Moreover, older tubs are often built much better than the cheap plastic shells you find at big-box home improvement stores nowadays. Retaining your heavy duty cast iron basin keeps that superior heat retention and solid feel while upgrading the look. You get the best of both worlds: historic durability and modern beauty.
We are proud to serve the wonderful communities throughout Yadkin County, North Carolina, where homeowners value hard work, honesty, and fair pricing. Whether you live near the Yadkin River, up in Jonesville, or down in Yadkinville, we treat your home with the utmost respect. Our deep roots in this beautiful portion of the Piedmont region mean we care about building lasting relationships with our neighbors.
Because we operate locally, we understand the specific water quality issues around here, like heavy mineral buildup and iron content that stain your fixtures. We know exactly how to prep your surfaces so our coatings withstand the local well water or municipal supply for years to come. Plus, our quick travel times mean we are always prompt, reliable, and ready to work around your busy schedule.
Actually, our customer service goes far beyond just spraying a chemical coating on your fixtures. We take the time to explain proper maintenance, helping you protect your investment so it stays bright and clean for a decade or more. You will never have to deal with pushy sales tactics or hidden fees when you work with us.
To keep your newly coated surface looking spectacular, you must avoid abrasive green scrubbing pads and harsh bleaching agents. Instead, use mild, non-abrasive liquid cleaners and a soft microfiber cloth to wipe down the basin after use. This simple routine prevents soap scum buildup without scratching the protective glossy layer.
Additionally, keeping your bathroom properly ventilated during and after baths helps the surface dry quickly, which discourages hard water deposits. If you have leaky faucets, fix them promptly because a constant, heavy drip can eventually wear down even the strongest industrial coatings. Taking care of these small details ensures your fixture remains pristine and shiny for up to fifteen years.
If you have pets, it is a smart idea to place a rubber mat down before giving them a bath to prevent their claws from scratching the finish. While our materials are incredibly tough, treating them with a little bit of care goes a long way. You will find that cleaning becomes incredibly easy because the non-porous finish does not let dirt stick to it.
Many homes built in the mid-to-late twentieth century feature bathroom fixtures in wild colors like avocado green, harvest gold, or baby pink. While those colors might have been trendy decades ago, they now make your entire home feel outdated and dark. Our professional resurfacing service can instantly transform those vintage relics into bright, modern white or almond shades.
This simple color shift instantly opens up your bathroom, making the entire space feel larger, brighter, and much cleaner. You do not have to spend ten thousand dollars on a complete remodel just to get rid of that 1970s vibe. A single afternoon of work completely updates your aesthetic and raises your property value.
Think about how much nicer it will feel to walk into a bathroom that looks fresh, clean, and completely updated. Your guests will assume you spent a fortune on a brand new luxury remodel. We love seeing the shocked looks on our clients' faces when they see the final transformation for the first time.
First, our skilled technician carefully masks off your entire bathroom using heavy duty plastic sheeting and painter's tape to protect your floors, walls, and vanity. We also set up a powerful exhaust fan with a flexible duct out the nearest window to pull any fumes and overspray safely out of your home. This careful preparation guarantees that the rest of your living space remains perfectly clean and odor-free.
Next, we remove the old caulk around the perimeter of the basin because new coatings will not adhere properly to silicone or latex. We then apply our specialized etching compound, which microscopically roughens the old porcelain or porcelain-enameled steel so the new layers can grab hold. This step is absolutely critical, and it is the main reason why cheap do-it-yourself kits from retail stores fail within a few months.
After the prep work is complete, we spray on our high-performance bonding agent, followed by multiple coats of our premium acrylic urethane topcoat. We allow the material to cure, remove all our masking materials, clean up our workspace, and apply fresh, mildew-resistant silicone caulk around the edges. You are left with a stunning, durable finish that is ready for use in just twenty-four hours.
It can be very tempting to buy a cheap twenty-dollar brush-on kit from a local hardware store to try and do this job yourself. However, those retail products are made from cheap epoxy resins that yellow quickly, peel off in sheets, and leave ugly brush marks all over your tub. Without professional-grade etching acids and spray equipment, achieving a smooth, durable finish is virtually impossible.
When a DIY job fails, you have to pay a professional even more money to strip off the failed, gooey epoxy before they can start the actual restoration. Save yourself the immense headache, wasted weekend, and extra expense by letting our experienced team do it right the very first time. We have the proper safety gear, industrial ventilation fans, and specialized training to deliver a flawless result.
Our industrial coatings are formulated for long-term submersion in hot water, which cheap hardware store paints simply cannot handle. We stand behind our work with a solid warranty, giving you complete peace of mind. Investing in professional service always pays off in the long run.
There is absolutely no reason to keep putting up with a stained, chipped, or horribly colored bathroom fixture. Our friendly team is ready to visit your home, inspect your current tub, and provide a clear, no-obligation written quote. We believe in transparent pricing and will never pressure you into making a decision on the spot.
By choosing our local refinishing services, you are opting for a fast, clean, and highly affordable way to upgrade your home.

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, 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.
Zoom for the lay of the land; the link lists further down name every community the van reaches from here.
Somewhere under that worn surface is the tub you chose. One day brings it back.
