A dull or chipped tub in Cypress Hills 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.
Maybe you look at your bathroom everyday and just shudder at that ugly stained tub. Honestly it can get pretty depressing when you want a nice relaxing soak but the surface looks like a crime scene. Fortunately you do not have to spend thousands of dollars on a massive demolition job to fix this eyesore.
Our team of local resurfacing specialists brings your old dingy fixtures back to life with zero mess. This process saves you tons of cash while giving you a gorgeous glossy finish that looks like it just came from the showroom. You will finally get to enjoy your bath time without feeling grossed out by old peeling paint or stubborn rust stains.
If you want to see how affordable this transformation is we are happy to give you a free estimate. Our friendly crew comes right to your door in Kings County to inspect your setup and explain the whole process. This means you get a clear price upfront with no hidden fees or weird surprises later on.
Actually many people confuse this affordable restoration process with just buying a cheap plastic liner. However those cheap liners often trap water underneath which leads to nasty mold growth that smells terrible. Our professional spray-on application creates a completely seamless bond directly over your existing porcelain or cast iron.
First we have to clean the old surface with specialized industrial cleaners to remove decades of soap scum. After that we repair any deep chips or cracks using a heavy-duty waterproof filler. This step is super important because it ensures the final topcoat stays perfectly flat and smooth for years.
Once the prep work is finished we apply a high-tech bonding agent that acts like superglue for the new glaze. Then we spray multiple layers of a premium acrylic coating using specialized ventilation equipment to keep your home smelling fresh. This advanced technique gives you a durable lustrous shine that resists scratches and looks incredibly clean.
| Restoration Stage | What We Do | Your Concrete Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| Etching & Cleaning | Remove grime and acid-wash the old porcelain | Ensures the new finish sticks forever |
| Chip Repair | Fill in dents, scratches, and rusty spots | Prevents future leaks and creates a flat surface |
| Topcoat Spraying | Apply multiple coats of specialized acrylic resin | Delivers a sparkling clean shine that is easy to wash |
Now you might worry about how long this whole process takes. Luckily our crew usually finishes the entire job in just a few hours. Which means you can actually use your beautiful upgraded bathroom the very next day without waiting weeks for contractors.
Living in this vibrant part of Brooklyn with a local population of around 54,944 residents means houses here have some serious character. Many homes in the 11208 ZIP code area still feature those gorgeous heavy cast iron tubs from back in the day. Keeping these vintage classics is way smarter than throwing them in a landfill because their quality is unmatched.
Replacing an old built-in unit in these classic homes often requires ripping out walls and tile work. That kind of headache can easily turn into a multi-week nightmare that drains your savings fast. By choosing our local restoration service instead you preserve the historic charm of your home while keeping your hard-earned money.
On top of that we know the local plumbing setups inside and out. This familiarity allows us to work quickly and avoid common mistakes that inexperienced out-of-town workers make. We take pride in helping our neighbors update their spaces with minimal disruption to their daily routines.
Let us look at the actual numbers because they really make a lot of sense. A brand new tub might seem cheap at the home improvement store but the installation labor is where they get you. You have to pay for a plumber, a tiler, and someone to haul away the heavy old junk.
Our spray-on restoration system costs only a small fraction of what a full remodel demands. This smart choice frees up your budget so you can spend your money on other important household upgrades. Plus you get a gorgeous glossy finish that looks identical to a brand new fixture.
To make things even easier we provide a detailed written quote completely free of charge. You can ask us any questions about the process and we will give you honest direct answers. This pressure-free approach helps you make the best decision for your home and your wallet.
Once our crew wraps up the job you will want to keep that beautiful shine looking perfect. Fortunately maintaining the restored finish is actually much easier than scrubbing an old worn-out tub. You just need to avoid harsh abrasive cleaners that scratch the surface over time.
We always recommend using mild dish soap or a gentle spray cleaner along with a soft sponge. This simple routine keeps the protective barrier shiny and prevents soap scum from building up. Which means you spend less time scrubbing on your hands and knees on the weekend.
Additionally you should avoid leaving wet shampoo bottles or heavy steel cans sitting on the ledge. This prevents moisture from getting trapped and ensures your beautiful upgrade lasts for up to a decade. Taking these small precautions protects your investment and keeps your bathroom looking like a luxury hotel.
If you are ready to stop squinting at those ugly stains we are here to help you out. Our local team is just a quick phone call or message away from transforming your bathroom. We love helping homeowners fall in love with their homes all over again through our reliable craftsmanship.
Remember that our friendly evaluations are entirely free and carry absolutely no obligation. We will walk you through the options and find a schedule that fits your busy life perfectly. Do not hesitate to reach out to us today so we can bring that sparkling clean look back to your home...
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 Cypress Hills, 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.
