A dull or chipped tub in Buckner 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.
Are you staring at a stained and chipped washing basin wondering how to fix it without spending a fortune? Well this local service lets you upgrade your bathroom centerpiece quickly and affordably.
That scratched surface makes your whole room look dated and dirty. Fortunately our specialized restoration team brings new life to your worn fixtures right on site.
Now you can avoid the massive plumbing bills associated with total replacement. This smart approach saves you thousands of dollars while giving your wash area a fresh finish.
What exactly happens during this chemical transformation process? First the technician cleans the entire tub to remove years of soap scum and mineral buildup.
Next they apply a powerful bonding agent to ensure the new coating sticks permanently. This vital step guarantees your updated basin will resist chipping for years.
Then comes the actual coating application using professional industrial grade polymers. This modern technique lets you enjoy a glossy finish that looks brand new.
Naturally the spraying process creates strong odors so proper ventilation is required. Our crew handles this carefully to keep your home safe and breathable.
After the spraying finishes the fresh surface needs time to harden completely. This waiting period ensures your tub handles daily showers without getting damaged.
Typically you must wait about twenty four hours before taking a bath. Such a brief inconvenience rewards you with a gorgeous surface that shines brilliantly.

Many folks worry the new topcoat might peel off after a few months. However our heavy duty primers create an unbreakable bond with the old material.
This sturdy adhesion stops moisture from sneaking underneath the painted layer. You get a durable shield that stands up to daily scrubbing and soaking.
Furthermore the specialized finish resists stubborn stains and yellowing over time. That means less scrubbing for you on busy weekend mornings.

Maybe your old basin has ugly rust stains around the drain opening. This specialized treatment covers those blemishes completely and restores factory shine.
Perhaps previous owners used harsh abrasive cleaners that ruined the original gloss. Our restoration method fills those microscopic scratches and creates a smooth glass like feel.
Maintaining your newly painted fixture requires gentle cleaning products and soft sponges. Avoid harsh scouring powders that might dull the brilliant shine prematurely.
Instead use mild dish soap or specialized acrylic cleaners for regular wipe downs. This simple habit keeps your bathroom centerpiece looking pristine for decades.
Always check your faucets for slow leaks that could damage the fresh coating. Fixing minor drips promptly protects your investment and prevents water spots.
Tearing out a heavy porcelain basin requires hiring expensive demolition crews and plumbers. That route drains your savings account before the project even reaches the halfway point.
Meanwhile spraying a fresh polymer layer over the existing structure costs a fraction of that price. This smart financial choice leaves plenty of money in your wallet for other upgrades.
Plus you bypass the headache of matching new tile after tearing out the old enclosure. Everything stays intact while getting a major cosmetic boost.
Do you notice rough patches that feel like sandpaper when you step inside? That texture means the protective glazing has worn away completely.
Are stubborn dark rings refusing to vanish despite heavy scrubbing with bleach? Those stains indicate porous porcelain that absorbs dirt deep beneath the surface.
If you answered yes to these questions your bathing area needs immediate attention. Ignoring these warning signs leads to rust and structural decay down the road.
First we arrive at your home right on time with all necessary professional gear. Our technicians protect your floors and fixtures with heavy drop cloths before starting.
Then we etch the worn surface to create a microscopic grip for the primer. This meticulous preparation guarantees long lasting results that will truly amaze you.
Finally we spray multiple coats of high performance acrylic resin in your chosen color. You watch an old eyesore turn into a stunning modern centerpiece.

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 Buckner, 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.
