A dull or chipped tub in Colonial Heights 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 tired of looking at that old chipped basin in your house? That dated wash tub can bring down your whole day fast. Luckily, you can fix it easily with our local service right here.
Instead of tearing out your whole bathroom, you can save money with a fresh resin coating. This smart option lets you avoid expensive plumbing bills and messy demolition dust. Naturally, your worn out washing vessel deserves a proper makeover without breaking your bank account.
Replacing a cast iron tub costs a small fortune these days. Yet, our surface restoration service gives you brand new results for a fraction of that price. Consequently, your wallet stays happy while your bathroom looks amazing.
Traditional bathroom remodels turn your home into a construction zone for weeks. However, our trained crew finishes the spraying process in just a few short hours. This means you avoid weeks of dust floating through your living spaces.
First, our technicians clean the old porcelain using heavy duty etching agents. This removes soap scum and body oils so the new bonding agent sticks right. Afterward, we dry the area completely to ensure a rock solid chemical grip.
Next, we spray several coats of high grade acrylic urethane across the entire basin. This creates a gorgeous smooth shine that matches your favorite aesthetic goals. Plus, your refreshed bathing spot withstands daily scrubbing without losing its gloss.
Did you know our charming Sullivan County community has just 3,642 residents sharing local pride? Many homes in ZIP codes like 37663 feature vintage fixtures that need a little love. Because of this, our crew knows exactly how to handle older houses found right around here.
With a median household income hovering around $45,516, keeping renovation costs low matters a lot. Therefore, choosing to spray your old basin instead of buying a new one makes total financial sense. You get high end luxury without emptying your savings.
Many homeowners wonder if they should rip out their old fixtures or spray them. To help you decide, let us look at a quick comparison table below.
| Project Type | Average Cost | Time Required | Mess Level |
|---|---|---|---|
| Full Replacement | Very High | Several Weeks | Extreme Dust |
| Our Spraying Service | Low Expense | One Day | Zero Mess |
Clearly, keeping your existing structure and updating the finish saves you massive amounts of time. Furthermore, you will not have to deal with contractors camping out in your hallway for ages.
On the scheduled morning, our friendly technician arrives right at your front door with professional gear. Then, we set up industrial ventilation fans to keep your indoor air clean and safe. This lets you breathe easy while we work our magic on your tired basin.
Next comes the delicate masking phase where we tape off your surrounding tiles and floors. Every square inch of your bathroom gets protected against overspray and wandering fumes. Naturally, we treat your personal property with the utmost respect from start to finish.
Some folks worry that sprayed coatings will bubble up after a few quick showers. However, we use industrial bonding agents that chemically weld the new layer to your old tub. This ensures your investment stays strong and beautiful for many years to come.
Chemical odors can be overwhelming during home improvement projects if proper safety steps are skipped. Yet, our advanced ventilation setup whisks away fumes instantly through your nearest window. Consequently, your house stays smelling fresh while the curing process happens.
Taking care of your restored fixture requires zero harsh chemical scrubs or steel wool pads. Instead, you just wipe down the glossy surface with mild dish soap and a soft sponge. This keeps the protective seal intact and looking shiny for a very long time.
Never drop heavy tools or sharp metal objects directly onto your freshly painted washing basin. Although the acrylic urethane is extremely tough, heavy impacts can still cause unwanted chips. By taking basic precautions, you protect your gorgeous investment from accidental damage.

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 Colonial Heights, 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.
