A dull or chipped tub in Brunswick 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 old bathroom fixture looks pretty rough these days.
Maybe the surface has turned a depressing shade of dirty yellow over the years.
Which means you probably dread stepping into it every single morning.
Fortunately, you do not have to spend thousands of dollars on a messy demolition project.
A professional refinishing of your existing porcelain or fiberglass basin will completely transform the entire room.
This simple process coats your worn-out setup with a shiny, durable new surface that looks brand new.
Our team comes right to your home to handle this tricky task from start to finish.
Since we believe in upfront pricing, we always offer a completely free estimate for your project.
You can easily save a pile of cash while getting a wash space that feels clean and fresh.
First of all, ripping out an old cast iron tub is a total nightmare.
You often have to break the old unit into heavy pieces with a sledgehammer.
This noisy process usually destroys your floor tiles and ruins your wall plaster too.
On top of that, hiring plumbers and carpenters adds up incredibly fast.
Your wallet will definitely feel the pain of those steep hourly labor rates.
By choosing to restore the existing basin instead, you keep those greenbacks in your pocket.
Actually, the refinishing option takes only a single afternoon to complete.
Which means you get to use your bathroom again in just a couple of days.
It is the smartest shortcut to a beautiful washroom without the endless construction dust.
To help you compare your options, we put together a simple breakdown of the two paths:
| Consideration | Full Replacement | Surface Restoration |
|---|---|---|
| Average Cost | Very High ($3,000 - $8,000) | Very Low (Fraction of replacement) |
| Time to Complete | 1 to 2 weeks of mess | 4 to 6 hours total |
| Durability | Long-lasting | Excellent with proper care |
First, we clean the old surface with specialized industrial cleaners to remove soap scum.
This critical step strips away decades of body oils and hard water deposits.
Without a pristine surface, the new coating simply will not stick properly.
Next, we carefully repair any deep chips or ugly rust spots we find.
We use a premium polyester filler to patch up those damaged areas flush.
This ensures the final finish looks completely smooth and uniform across the whole basin.
After that, we apply a chemical bonding agent to the bare porcelain or acrylic.
This molecular primer acts like superglue between the old surface and the new topcoat.
Then, we spray several layers of high-tech acrylic urethane to create a glossy finish.
Finally, we let the new material cure completely so it hardens into a rock-solid shield.
This curing process takes about twenty-four hours before you can wet the surface.
Once it sets, you are left with a glittering finish that rivals a factory-fresh unit.
Now, let us talk about the local area where we proudly offer our services.
We love working in this historic railroad town situated right along the scenic Potomac River.
With a local population of 6,193 residents, we enjoy a tight-knit community feel here.
Many homes in the 21716 ZIP code feature beautiful, historic character but outdated plumbing fixtures.
Since the median household income sits at $76,708, smart budgeting is important for local families.
Our affordable resurfacing service helps Frederick County homeowners stretch their hard-earned dollars further.
Choosing to upgrade your current bathroom fixtures also boosts your overall property value.
Potential buyers absolutely love seeing a clean, modern bathroom when they tour a house.
It is a small investment that delivers a major aesthetic payoff when you decide to sell.
To keep your glossy new topcoat looking spectacular, you must avoid abrasive scrubbers.
Throw away those harsh bleach powders and scratchy green scrub pads right now.
They will dull the gorgeous shine and create tiny scratches that trap dirt.
Instead, use mild liquid dish soaps or gentle foaming bathroom cleaners.
This simple habit preserves the brilliant luster of the acrylic urethane coating.
A quick wipe down with a soft towel after each use works absolute wonders too.
Also, try to avoid leaving wet bottles of shampoo sitting directly on the ledge.
Standing water under plastic containers can occasionally weaken the bond over time.
Using a hanging shower caddy is an easy way to protect your beautiful new 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 Brunswick, 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.
