All over Daviess County, worn bathtubs are resurfaced in place: repairs first, gloss second, fresh caulk on the way out.
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 can actually save thousands of dollars by choosing a smart, modern resurfacing alternative instead of ripping out your entire bathroom. Our local team comes right to your door to apply a durable, gorgeous new finish that makes your old fixture shine like new again.

Fortunately, our special process completely bypasses that nightmare while delivering the exact same beautiful results for your pocketbook.
We believe in keeping things incredibly simple and affordable for hardworking homeowners. By contacting us today, you can grab a 1000% free estimate to see just how easy it is to transform your space. Do not wait around staring at those gross stains when a beautiful, shiny bathroom is just a quick phone call away!
Many folks do not realize that the solid bones of an old cast iron or steel tub are often way better than the cheap plastic stuff sold in big box stores today. Instead of throwing away that high-quality piece of American history, we use advanced chemical bonding agents to fuse a glossy new topcoat directly onto your existing fixture. This process leaves you with a ultra-smooth, bright surface that looks identical to a brand new installation.
First, our friendly technicians thoroughly clean the old area using specialized cleaners to strip away decades of soap scum, body oils, and hard water deposits. This critical step ensures the new materials grip onto the original substrate with maximum strength. If there are any nasty chips, deep scratches, or rusty spots, we patch them up carefully so the final result looks totally seamless.
After preparing the surface, we spray on a high-tech primer followed by several layers of a premium acrylic polyurethane coating. This specific material is designed to handle daily wear and tear while resisting yellowing over time. Consequently, you get a gorgeous, easy-to-clean washbasin that looks spectacular and lasts for many years to come.
Budget savings are easily the biggest reason why homeowners choose this clever update. When you choose to refinish rather than replace, you save money on plumbing hookups, new tiling, and expensive disposal fees. This means you can keep your hard-earned cash in your wallet or use it for other fun home improvement projects.
On top of saving money, this process saves you an immense amount of precious time. A complete bathroom demolition can easily drag on for weeks, leaving you without a place to bathe. Our clean, efficient process usually wraps up in just a single afternoon, meaning you can use your gorgeous tub the very next day.
Let us compare the two main options side by side so you can make the smartest decision for your household budget.
| Project Factor | Complete Replacement | Our Professional Resurfacing |
|---|---|---|
| Average Cost | Very expensive (thousands of dollars) | Highly affordable and budget-friendly |
| Time to Complete | One to two weeks of messy construction | Only four to six hours total |
| Mess and Dust | Extreme amount of drywall and tile dust | Virtually zero mess left behind |
| Durability | Depends on the quality of the new tub | Lasts 10 to 15 years with proper care |
This handy comparison shows how much hassle you avoid by choosing our smart surface restoration service. You deserve a beautiful home without the stress of a massive construction zone.
Living and working in southwestern Indiana means we truly care about the local folks in our community. We proudly serve the wonderful residents of Daviess County, which boasts a rich heritage, a population of over thirty-three thousand friendly neighbors, and a median household income of around fifty-six thousand dollars. Our service area covers all the local spots, including ZIP codes like 47501 and 47553, bringing top-notch craftsmanship right to your doorstep.
We treat your home with the exact same respect we would show to our own grandmother's house. This means we seal off the bathroom with plastic sheets and use heavy-duty exhaust fans to pull any chemical fumes safely outside. You will not have to worry about weird smells lingering in your hallways or dust settling on your living room furniture.
Our skilled technicians have years of hands-on experience dealing with every type of bathtub material under the sun. Whether you have a classic clawfoot model, a standard alcove tub, or even a fiberglass shower surround, we know exactly how to handle it. This deep expertise guarantees that your finished project will look absolutely flawless and stand up to daily use.
Once we finish our magic, maintaining that brilliant shine is actually incredibly simple and requires very little effort. You must avoid using harsh abrasive cleaners like bleach or gritty scrubbing powders because they can dull the glossy finish over time. Instead, we recommend using mild, non-abrasive liquid dish soaps or gentle foaming bathroom sprays.
Another great tip is to always wipe down the surface with a soft towel after you take a shower or bath. This quick habit prevents hard water spots from building up and keeps the shine looking incredibly vibrant. Also, make sure to fix any leaky faucets promptly, as constant dripping can wear down even the toughest coatings over the years.
By following these easy guidelines, you can extend the life of your gorgeous new finish for over a decade. We love helping our neighbors get the absolute most value out of their home improvement investments.

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, 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.
Zoom for the lay of the land; the link lists further down name every community the van reaches from here.
Somewhere under that worn surface is the tub you chose. One day brings it back.
