A dull or chipped tub in Bonita 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.
Your worn-out basin looks pretty rough these days.
You can actually save thousands of dollars by choosing a smart surface restoration instead of ripping out your entire setup.
Our local crew visits your home to provide a completely free written estimate to make things look brand new again.
Maybe you are staring at an ugly, dated color from decades ago.
This common headache plagues many homeowners who want a clean, modern look but hate the idea of dusty construction.
By applying a fresh, high-performance coating right over your existing fixture, we skip the messy demolition entirely.
Think about the massive headache of hiring plumbers and tile setters just to fix one ugly feature.
Instead, our specialized refinishing process bonds directly to your old porcelain or fiberglass.
This simple choice keeps cash in your pocket while delivering a gorgeous, high-gloss shine that lasts for years.
Many folks confuse a quick DIY spray job with professional chemical bonding.
Honestly, those cheap retail kits usually peel off within a few months because they lack industrial-strength adhesion promoters.
We use commercial-grade etching agents to prep the old enamel so the new synthetic porcelain sticks permanently.
First, we meticulously clean the area to remove every trace of soap scum and body oils.
This critical step ensures the new topcoat fuses perfectly with the original structure.
Which means you get a smooth, non-porous finish that resists stains and looks incredibly slick.
After prepping the foundation, we spray multiple layers of premium acrylic urethane.
This advanced material cures into a rock-hard shield that stands up to daily scrubbing.
You will love how easy it is to wipe clean without using harsh abrasive powders anymore.
Older cast iron models possess a level of sturdy craftsmanship you simply cannot buy today.
Replacing them often requires breaking walls and destroying beautiful surround tiles.
Our fast cosmetic overhaul preserves that vintage durability while upgrading the color to a crisp, clean white.
To give you a better idea of how this compares to traditional remodeling, let us look at the numbers.
| Project Aspects | Traditional Replacement | Professional Refinishing |
|---|---|---|
| Average Cost | Very high ($3,000 - $8,000) | Extremely affordable |
| Time to Complete | One to two weeks of mess | Done in a single day |
| Permits Required | Yes, usually plumbing permits | No permits needed at all |
| Durability | Depends on cheap modern plastics | Restores heavy-duty original cast iron |
As you can see, opting for a professional face-lift saves both time and sanity.
On top of that, your water stays hot longer in a heavy, insulated vintage tub than in a flimsy modern plastic replacement.
This clever upgrade preserves the best parts of your home while removing the embarrassing eyesores.

Small cracks and chips do more than just look bad.
Water traps itself under the damaged finish, which slowly rusts the heavy iron underneath.

A fresh coat also restores that lost shine that makes a bathroom feel bright and hygienic.
No more scrubbing stained, dull plastic that always looks dirty no matter how hard you clean.
This gorgeous transformation brings back the pride of showing off your guest bathroom to visitors.
We believe in complete transparency so you know exactly what to expect when we visit.
Our technician starts by masking off all your walls, vanity, and floor to prevent overspray.
This careful protection ensures the specialized coating only lands where it is supposed to go.
Next comes the chemical bonding agent, which acts like a super-glue between the old and new layers.
This step is where DIY kits fail, but our commercial equipment ensures a seamless, permanent bond.
Afterward, we apply the glossy topcoats using professional spray guns for a factory-like finish.
Finally, we remove all the tape and clean up our workspace so everything looks spotless.
We even apply a bead of fresh silicone caulk around the perimeter to seal the deal.
This attention to detail leaves you with a beautiful, watertight boundary that keeps mold at bay.

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 Bonita, 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.
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.
