We believe in honest work and top-tier results for our neighbors in Terrebonne Parish. Our team handles every step of the process with care, ensuring your home stays clean and your bathroom becomes your new favorite room. Let us dive into how this process works and why it is the best choice for your home.
Many homeowners assume they need to tear out their entire bathroom when a tub starts showing its age. However, this common misconception leads to wasted money and weeks of plastic sheets hanging in your hallway. Our specialized coating process seals up old, porous surfaces without disturbing your plumbing or walls.
This method works incredibly well on cast iron, steel, and even fiberglass units. Since we apply a premium liquid acrylic coating directly over the prepared surface, the finished product looks identical to brand-new porcelain. You get to enjoy a sparkling clean basin without the headache of dealing with a major construction zone in your home.
Moreover, the cost savings of this service are truly mind-blowing. You avoid paying for drywall repairs, tile replacement, and expensive plumbing hookups that always pop up during a traditional remodel. It is a straightforward, highly effective way to upgrade your space on a budget.
First, we meticulously clean the surface using specialized industrial cleaners to remove decades of soap scum and body oils. After that, we apply a strong etching agent that creates microscopic pores in the old enamel. This critical step ensures our premium bonding agents can grip the old surface with absolute maximum strength.
Next, we repair any deep chips, rust spots, or cracks using a heavy-duty waterproof filler. Once we sand everything completely flat, we mask off the entire bathroom to protect your walls, floors, and fixtures from overspray. Finally, we spray multiple layers of our high-tech resin coating using professional HVLP equipment.
| Step of Process | Concrete Benefit to You |
|---|---|
| Deep Chemical Etching | Prevents peeling and ensures the new finish sticks forever. |
| Surface Damage Repair | Eliminates rusty spots and sharp chips so your tub is perfectly smooth. |
| HVLP Spray Application | Creates a factory-like finish with zero brush strokes or runs. |
Living down here in the bayou country means we deal with unique humidity levels that can mess with cheap DIY paint kits. Because we use commercial-grade chemical bonding agents, our finishes cure properly even in our warm southern climate. We do not take shortcuts because we know how frustrating a peeling tub can be for a homeowner.
Our small-town values guide how we treat your home from the moment we step through your front door. We arrive on time, keep our work area tidy, and clean up every bit of debris before we pack up our truck. You will not have to deal with messy plaster dust or leftover trash when we leave.
Additionally, we understand the financial realities of maintaining a home in a community where the median household income is around $58,269. We price our services fairly so you can get beautiful results without draining your savings account. It is all about helping our neighbors keep their homes looking great.
If you decide to replace your tub, you must hire a plumber, a tile setter, and a trash hauling service. That quick weekend project quickly turns into a multi-week nightmare that can easily cost over three thousand dollars. On the other hand, our surface restoration service takes less than a single day from start to finish.
This speed means you will not have to share a single shower with your entire family for a whole month. We know how stressful home repairs can be, which is why we focus on getting in and out quickly. Your convenience and peace of mind are always our top priorities.
When our friendly technician arrives at your home, they will immediately set up a powerful exhaust fan in your bathroom window. This setup draws out all the fumes and overspray, keeping your indoor air clean and safe to breathe. We take safety very seriously and always protect your home like it is our own.
Throughout the day, you will hear the low hum of our equipment as we prep and spray the new surface. Once we finish the final topcoat, we remove all our masking tape and protective paper. We then explain how to care for your new finish so it stays shiny for up to fifteen years.
You only need to wait about twenty-four hours before you can turn on the tap and take a relaxing soak. This quick turnaround time is perfect for busy families who cannot afford to lose access to their main bathroom. It is truly the most efficient home improvement project you will ever experience.
To keep your newly coated surface looking like a million bucks, you must avoid harsh abrasive cleaners. Bleach, steel wool, and gritty scrubbing powders will slowly scratch the glossy protective layer over time. Instead, we recommend using mild dish soap or gentle foam sprays with a soft microfiber cloth.
These simple habits prevent soap scum buildup without harming the beautiful finish we worked hard to create. If you treat your newly restored basin with a little bit of respect, it will reward you with a bright shine for over a decade. We even recommend using a suction-cup-free bath mat to prevent any moisture from getting trapped underneath the surface.

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 Bourg, 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.
