A dull or chipped tub in Benson 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 wake up and stare at that stained, chipped surface in your bathroom every single morning. Honestly, it probably makes you feel a bit sad before you even grab your first cup of coffee. Fortunately, our team of skilled local technicians can transform that eyesore into a shiny masterpiece without the mess of a full remodel. By choosing this smart cosmetic upgrade, you save thousands of dollars and get your washroom back in action within just twenty-four hours.
Imagine avoiding the dusty nightmare of tearing out walls just to replace one heavy cast iron fixture. Since our process focuses on restoring what you already own, you keep your original setup intact while getting a brand-new look. To make things even better, we will drive right to your doorstep and give you a free written estimate today. This means you get absolute clarity on the price without spending a single penny upfront.
First, we clean the existing porcelain or fiberglass surface with specialized industrial prep agents to remove years of soap scum and hard water deposits. This critical step ensures that the new coatings bond perfectly to the old substrate. After we repair every single chip, ding, and deep scratch with waterproof polyester fillers, we apply a high-tech bonding agent. Because we take these extra steps, your finished fixture will look incredibly smooth and stay that way for a very long time.
Next, our technicians use professional spray equipment to apply multiple coats of a highly durable acrylic urethane topcoat. This specific material mimics the deep shine of original factory glaze while resisting future stains and chips. By sealing the porous old surface, we make your weekly cleaning chores a total breeze. Which means you can finally throw away those harsh abrasive scrubbers that ruin your back and your plumbing fixtures.
Actually, the magic lies in the molecular bridge we create between the old baked enamel and the new liquid acrylic. Without this chemical bond, any new coating would simply peel off like a bad sunburn the first time you take a hot shower. That is why we never skip steps or use cheap DIY kits from the local hardware store. Our professional-grade silane coupling agents ensure that the new finish grips the old surface with incredible strength.
Consequently, you get a beautiful finish that easily handles daily use from kids, pets, and heavy scrubbing. On top of that, our topcoats contain special UV inhibitors to prevent the white finish from turning yellow over time. This keeps your bathroom looking bright and fresh for years to come.
| Project Aspect | Full Replacement Option | Our Resurfacing Method |
|---|---|---|
| Total Cost | Very high (plumbing, tile, disposal) | Extremely budget-friendly |
| Time to Complete | Usually 3 to 7 days of mess | Finished in just a few hours |
| Demolition Mess | Heavy dust, broken tile, drywall damage | Zero demolition required |
Understandably, those cheap box store kits look tempting when you want to save a quick buck on home improvement. However, those roll-on epoxy paints lack the durability and chemical bonding power of professional spray-applied urethanes. They often leave ugly brush marks, bubbles, and thin spots that begin to peel within just a few months. When you hire us, you avoid these messy failures and get a flawless factory finish instead.
Furthermore, breathing in those strong chemical fumes without professional ventilation equipment is highly unpleasant and dangerous. Our team brings powerful exhaust systems to safely draw all odors out of your home while we work. This keeps your indoor air clean and your family completely safe during the entire application process.

With a local population of 3,651 residents, we take pride in helping our neighbors upgrade their homes affordably.

Our cost-effective alternative offers a beautiful, durable solution that fits comfortably into your budget.
Many older homes in this region feature gorgeous, heavy cast iron soaking tubs that are almost impossible to find today. Sadly, those antique fixtures often suffer from dull finishes, rust around the drain, and deep mineral stains. Removing them is a nightmare because they can weigh several hundred pounds and require widening your bathroom doorway. Fortunately, our specialized spray-on restoration system lets you keep that beautiful vintage character while making the surface look brand new.
This means you get to enjoy the deep, heat-retaining benefits of classic cast iron without looking at ugly stains. We can even fix those rusty areas around the overflow plate so they never leak again. It is truly the perfect blend of modern durability and old-school charm.
Naturally, nobody wants construction workers tracking mud through their hallways for a week straight. Our process is incredibly clean because we do all the preparation and spraying right inside your existing bathroom footprint. We carefully mask off your walls, floors, vanity, and toilet with heavy paper and plastic sheeting. This absolute protection ensures that no overspray ever touches your precious belongings.
Once we finish the application, we clean up our workspace thoroughly so you do not have to sweep up afterward. You simply wait twenty-four hours for the high-performance coatings to cure completely. After that, you can peel off the tape and enjoy your sparkling, clean bathroom.
Think about the last time you tried to clean a worn-out, porous fiberglass surface. No matter how hard you scrubbed, it probably still looked grey and dirty because the original protective gelcoat had worn away. Dirt and body oils sink deep into those tiny microscopic pores, making traditional cleaning useless. Our shiny new topcoat seals those pores completely, creating a slick barrier that dirt cannot cling to.
This means you can say goodbye to those exhausting weekend scrubbing sessions forever. A simple wipe with a mild dish soap and a soft sponge is all it takes to keep things gleaming. You save time, protect your physical health, and keep your bathroom looking like a luxury hotel suite.
If you plan to sell your property soon, an ugly bathroom will instantly turn off potential buyers. People assume that a worn-out bathing area means the entire plumbing system is old and neglected. By investing a small amount into our restoration services, you can dramatically improve the visual appeal of your entire home. This simple upgrade often returns its cost multiple times over when negotiations begin.
Even if you plan to stay in your home forever, you deserve to live in a space that makes you feel happy. Taking a warm bath in a sparkling clean, smooth basin is one of life's simplest pleasures. Let us help you reclaim that feeling of relaxation without breaking the bank.

This lets you make an informed decision without any pressure or annoying sales tactics.

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 Benson, 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.
