A dull or chipped tub in Centerville 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You probably stare at that stained, chipped, or outdated basin every single morning. This makes you want a fresh look without the mess of a full demo.
Getting a fresh start for your tub does not mean you have to rip your walls apart. This process saves you tons of cash while making your bathroom feel brand new. You avoid the stress of heavy construction by choosing a smart surface renewal. Which means you keep your tiles intact and avoid expensive plumbing headaches.
Instead of buying a new unit, you just fix the finish you already have in your home. This clever trick keeps your space looking swell without the heavy price tag of a full remodel. Most people find that the old cast iron or steel underneath is actually better than the cheap plastic ones sold today. Consequently, you get a solid structure that lasts for many more years of daily use.
First, our team cleans the area to remove all the soap scum and mineral buildup that hide there. Then, we repair any chips or cracks so the surface becomes perfectly smooth again. This level of detail ensures that your new finish sticks properly and looks wonderful for a long time. Next, we apply a high-quality bonding agent that locks everything in place.
After that, we spray a tough coating that mimics the shiny look of real porcelain. This creates a state of ease and luxury in your daily routine without needing a massive budget. Because we use industrial-grade resins, the finish resists stains much better than your old porous surface ever did. You gain a surface that wipes clean with just a damp cloth every single time.
Living in a town with a population of nearly 24,000 means you want local folks who care about their work. Being part of the community in this part of the country allows us to provide fast and friendly service. You will find that our neighbors in the surrounding area appreciate a job done right the first time. We know the local water hardness levels and how that impacts the longevity of your finish.

We prioritize your needs and make sure the work fits into your busy week. Plus, we bring all the necessary tools and supplies so you never have to lift a finger.
Because we are based right here in the area, we can offer a free estimate to anyone in the zip codes spanning this lovely spot. This lets you know exactly what to expect before we even touch your fixtures. You can finally plan your budget with confidence and clarity. There is no guesswork involved when you work with a team that knows the streets you call home.
You might wonder if this stuff actually stays on the tub for a long time. The answer lies in the intense prep work we perform before adding the new layer. We use chemical etching to open the pores of the material so the coating bites deep into the surface. This creates a permanent bond that will not peel or flake away under normal conditions.
If you treat the surface well, it provides a sense of bliss for years to come. You should avoid harsh scrubbing pads or abrasive cleaners that scratch the shiny layer. Instead, use a mild liquid cleaner to maintain that bright finish forever. This little change in your habit ensures your investment stays beautiful for the long haul.
Once we arrive at your door, we mask off the surrounding area to protect your walls and floors. This ensures that no spray or dust lands where it does not belong. We take pride in leaving your home cleaner than we found it. You can come home after work to a bathroom that looks completely transformed and fresh.
Then we begin the application process which involves several thin layers to build up depth. Each layer must dry properly before the next one goes on to ensure a perfectly smooth finish. This technique gives you that high-end feel without the high-end cost of replacing everything. Finally, we remove the tape and clean up the dust so you can enjoy your space.
Many people worry about the smell during the application process. We use high-powered ventilation fans to whisk away any fumes before they ever reach your living room. You can rest easy knowing your home will remain ventilated and safe for everyone inside. It is a small price to pay for the upgrade of your dreams.
Another concern is the time it takes for everything to set properly. Usually, you can use your shower again within just a few days after we finish. This efficiency is why so many folks choose this route instead of a full tear-out. You get to keep your routine running smoothly while upgrading your home's value at the same time.
You might have a color that was popular decades ago like harvest gold or avocado green. We can change that to a crisp white or a modern almond finish in no time. This simple shift makes your entire room feel larger and much brighter. It really is amazing how much a fresh coat of color changes your perception of the room.
If your tiles are also looking tired, we can tackle those at the same time. This creates a unified look that brings a feeling of harmony to your entire shower area. You deserve a space that reflects your personality and makes you feel good every single morning. Let us help you achieve that vision without the stress of a massive renovation project.

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 Centerville, 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.
