Most people assume that once a basin gets dull or scratched, it belongs in a landfill. However, the truth is that the underlying structure is usually perfectly fine, it just needs a fresh protective layer. Our specialized process involves stripping away old DIY coatings, repairing deep scratches, and applying a industrial-grade bonding agent. This meticulous preparation ensures the new glossy topcoat sticks perfectly for years to come.
This method works wonders on a variety of materials, including classic cast iron, steel, and modern fiberglass. Because we use advanced ventilation systems, we keep odors to an absolute minimum while we work. This lets you relax in your living room while your bathroom undergoes a stunning transformation.
To give you a clearer picture of how this compares to a full replacement, let us look at the details:
| Factor | Professional Coating Restoration | Full Replacement Demolition |
|---|---|---|
| Average Cost | Very affordable and budget-friendly | Extremely expensive with hidden fees |
| Project Duration | Finished in just a few hours | Can take several days or even weeks |
| Mess and Dust | Virtually none, totally contained | Heavy drywall dust and debris |
| Lifespan | Up to 10-15 years with proper care | Long-lasting but requires plumbing work |

First, we carefully mask off the entire work area to protect your floors, walls, and vanity from any overspray. Next, we apply a specialized etching compound that creates microscopic pores on the old enamel. This step is absolutely crucial because it allows the new resin to fuse with the original structure on a molecular level. After fixing any chips with a durable filler, we spray multiple coats of high-performance acrylic polyurethane.
This precise application technique creates a super smooth, non-porous barrier that resists mold and mildew. Consequently, you will spend way less time scrubbing with harsh chemicals on the weekends. This gives you more free time to enjoy your beautiful home and family.
Once the curing process is complete, we perform a thorough quality inspection to ensure everything is flawless. Then, we clean up our gear and leave your bathroom looking spotless. All that is left for you to do is enjoy the incredible shine.
Now, you might be wondering how to keep that brilliant luster looking great for the long haul. Fortunately, maintenance is incredibly simple as long as you avoid abrasive cleaners and rough scrubbing pads. A gentle splash of mild dish soap and a soft microfiber cloth will do the trick nicely. This easy routine preserves the protective seal and keeps the surface looking brand new.
Additionally, we recommend wiping down the area after use to prevent hard water spots from building up. This simple habit keeps your bathroom looking fresh and clean with minimal effort. Which means you can show off your home to guests without any embarrassment.
By following these basic tips, you ensure your investment pays off for a decade or more. We even provide a detailed care guide after we finish the job so you have all the info handy. Our goal is to make sure your results last as long as possible.
Some folks believe that a sprayed finish will easily peel or look like cheap paint. However, this only happens when someone uses a cheap, store-bought DIY kit without the right tools or training. Our professional-grade materials are designed specifically for wet environments and bond permanently. This high-end chemical process creates a seamless look that even professionals struggle to tell apart from brand new porcelain.
Another common misconception is that the process takes days to dry before you can use it. Actually, our modern coatings cure incredibly fast, allowing you to use your shower again in just twenty-four hours. This rapid turnaround time minimizes disruption to your daily routine, which is especially important if you only have one bathroom.

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 Cloverdale, 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.
