A dull or chipped tub in Arnold 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You probably stare at that stained, chipped, or outdated basin every single morning. This makes your daily routine feel like a chore rather than a refreshing start to the day.
Instead of tearing everything apart, you can choose a much smarter path. Getting a fresh, smooth surface on your current unit will completely transform the entire look of your room.
Tearing out a heavy, cast-iron tub is a nightmare that creates tons of dust and debris. You have to deal with plumbers, wall repairs, and weeks of construction work in your home.
Choosing this specialized restoration service lets you skip the massive mess entirely. It keeps your existing fixtures in place while giving them a brand new, glossy appearance that lasts for years.
This approach saves you a significant amount of money compared to a full remodel. You avoid the high cost of new hardware and the labor needed to install heavy porcelain or acrylic replacements.
First, the technician cleans the surface deeply to remove years of soap scum and grime. This creates a perfect bond for the new material, ensuring that the finish stays put without peeling.
Next, every little crack or chip gets filled with a high-strength compound. This makes the surface completely smooth again so that you have a flawless base to work with moving forward.
Finally, a durable resin coating gets applied using professional spray equipment. This creates a hard, non-porous layer that mimics the feel of brand new porcelain while offering much better resistance.
You get a surface that is incredibly easy to keep clean. Because the pores are sealed shut, dirt and mildew cannot sink into the material like they do on older, worn surfaces.
This type of work provides a high level of satisfaction by making your bathroom feel brand new again. It adds value to your property without requiring the headache of a massive renovation project.
On top of that, you can choose almost any color you want. Whether you prefer a crisp, modern white or something a bit more unique, this process gives you total control over the vibe.

| Feature | Your Benefit | |
|---|---|---|

Renovating an entire bathroom often costs thousands of dollars when you count up all the parts. By focusing on the tub, you spend a fraction of that amount for a similar visual effect.
Think of all the things you could do with the extra cash. You might upgrade your faucets, add new lighting, or even paint the walls to match your freshly restored centerpiece.
This is a very practical way to modernize your space. You stay within your budget while achieving that sense of luxury you have always wanted for your daily soaking time.
You should know that the secret lies in the preparation work. If the technician skips the sanding or the deep cleaning, the new layer will not stick very well.
Our process uses a special chemical bond that bridges the old material to the new coating. This creates a permanent fusion that stands up to constant moisture and daily temperature changes.
You never have to worry about the surface flaking off after a few months. We pride ourselves on doing the job right the first time so you can enjoy the result forever.
First, you can request a free estimate to see exactly what we can do for you. We come out to your house, take a look at the condition of your fixtures, and explain the steps.
Next, you will receive a transparent quote with no hidden fees. We believe in being honest with our neighbors in Missouri because we want you to be happy for years to come.
Then, we schedule a time that works best for your busy life. We arrive on time, protect your floors, and get to work immediately to minimize any inconvenience to your family.
You should avoid using harsh, abrasive cleaners that might scratch the new finish. A simple, mild liquid soap works wonders for keeping everything shiny and bright for a long time.
Regular wiping with a soft cloth prevents water spots from building up over time. This keeps the surface looking like it was just finished yesterday, even after months of daily use.
When you care for it properly, this solution provides a level of comfort that you will truly appreciate every time you step into the room. It feels just as good as it looks.
You might wonder if there is a strong smell involved during the process. We use high-grade ventilation fans to clear the air quickly so you can return to your bathroom soon.
Another common question is how long the surface takes to cure. Usually, you only need to wait a single day before you can enjoy a relaxing soak in your upgraded tub.
This efficiency is what makes our service so popular with homeowners. You get a massive upgrade in one single day without the stress of contractors hanging around for weeks.
If you are tired of looking at that ugly, stained basin, it is time to do something about it. You deserve a space that makes you feel relaxed when you walk through the door.
Getting a free quote is the easiest way to start this transformation. We are here to answer your questions and guide you through the process from start to finish.
Do not let another day go by staring at those eyesores. Reach out to us today to see how we can bring life back to your bathroom fixtures in Missouri!
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 Arnold, 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.
