In Dyker Heights, the Brooklyn technician we send repairs, sprays and caulks your tub where it stands.
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You probably stare at that stained, chipped, or outdated basin in your bathroom every single morning. Dealing with a bathtub that has lost its shine can make your entire house feel a little bit tired and run-down.
Fortunately, there is a way to fix this without ripping everything out and starting from scratch. You can simply have the surface professionally resurfaced to look brand new again for a fraction of the cost of a remodel.
When you look at the cost of a full bathroom renovation, your wallet might start to sweat a little bit. Ripping out a heavy cast iron tub is a nightmare that involves plumbing, tile work, and way too much dust.
By choosing to have a pro apply a fresh, durable coating over your existing fixture, you save thousands of dollars instantly. This process provides a smooth finish that makes scrubbing soap scum off a total breeze for you.
Before anything happens, a technician strips away all the old grime and chemical residues that have built up over years of use. This deep clean is vital because it ensures the new bonding agent sticks perfectly to the tub surface.
Next, the technician repairs any chips or cracks in the enamel using a specialized filler material. Once everything is smooth and level, they spray on a high-grade synthetic resin that creates a rock-solid, glossy layer.
Since you live in the heart of this charming Brooklyn neighborhood, you know that keeping your home value up is always a priority. With a median household income that reflects the hardworking nature of residents in this area, smart spending is key.
Our team knows the local vibe well and provides top-tier results for homeowners across the 11228 ZIP code region. You will find that our process provides a sense of ease and total satisfaction that lasts for many years.
| Feature | Your Benefit |
|---|---|
| Chemical stripping | Perfect surface adhesion |
| Durable resin coating | Long-lasting shine |
| Color matching | Modern aesthetic look |
| Fast drying time | Minimal downtime |
Usually, the process takes only a few hours, which means you do not have to rearrange your entire life for a contractor. You can expect a professional who shows up on time and treats your bathroom with the same care they would give their own.
Although there might be a faint smell while the fumes dissipate, the ventilation we use helps clear the air quickly. You will soon have a refreshed area that brings a sense of relaxation and refined style to your daily routine.
Many older homes in this part of New York feature classic fixtures that are built like tanks but look like disasters. Instead of throwing away a perfectly good heavy-duty tub, you keep the quality intact while updating the look.
This approach honors the history of your home while giving you the modern benefits of a non-porous finish. Because the material is non-porous, mold and mildew struggle to find a foothold, making your cleaning chores much lighter.
If you are curious about what this would cost for your specific tub, we make getting an answer very simple. You just reach out, and we set up a time to swing by and take a quick look at the project.
There is absolutely no pressure to say yes, and we believe in being upfront about every single detail. We value your time and aim to provide a quote that reflects exactly what you need to get the job done right.
People often worry if the new surface will peel off after a few months of hot water exposure. The secret lies in the quality of the prep work and the specific chemical bonding agents we use during the application.
When you follow our simple care instructions, the finish stays bright and smooth for years. We ensure you feel total confidence in the work we provide, as we stand behind our results every single time.
You might be tired of that dated almond or avocado green shade that was popular decades ago. Switching to a crisp, clean white or a soft modern gray can transform the entire look of your bathroom overnight.
This color change acts as a cheap facelift for your room, making it feel larger and more open. Plus, the high-gloss sheen reflects light beautifully, adding a spark of brightness that makes every morning start a little better.
Store-bought kits might seem tempting because the price tag looks very low at first glance. However, those DIY solutions often lack the heavy-duty resins and professional-grade spray equipment needed for a lasting result.
When you try it yourself, you risk drips, bubbles, and a surface that starts peeling within a few months. Save yourself the headache and let a professional handle the chemicals and the tricky application process for you.
Maintaining the value of your property is a full-time job, and every small improvement adds up. By tackling your worn-out fixtures now, you prevent water damage and stop the cycle of constant scrubbing that never seems to work.
Everything we do is focused on giving you a space that feels fresh and inviting. You deserve a bathroom that acts as a place of calm after a long day of work in the city.
Since you are located in a bustling part of the state, we know space is tight and waste disposal is expensive. By choosing to resurface rather than replace, you keep heavy debris out of local landfills.
This is a sustainable way to upgrade your living space without contributing to unnecessary waste. We take pride in helping our neighbors keep their homes looking great while being mindful of the planet around us.
You really have nothing to lose by asking for a professional opinion on your current situation. We have seen every type of damage imaginable, from deep gouges to faded finishes, and we have fixed them all.
Now is the perfect time to stop ignoring that ugly tub and finally do something about it. Reach out to us for your free quote and see how quickly we can turn your bathroom into the room you have always wanted.
Before we arrive, you do not need to do much, but clearing out your toiletries makes our job faster. We need clear access to the tub area to ensure our equipment fits safely without any accidents.
If you have any specific concerns about the condition of your pipes or the surrounding tile, just point those out when we arrive. We love answering questions because it helps you understand why we do things the way we do.
After we finish, you will want to treat the surface with a bit of respect to keep that shine going. Avoid using harsh abrasive cleaners or steel wool pads, as these can scratch the new coating over time.
Instead, stick to gentle soaps and soft sponges to maintain the integrity of the finish. This simple change in your cleaning routine keeps your investment looking fresh for many years down the road.
We understand that you have a busy life and cannot just drop everything to wait around for contractors. Our team works hard to stick to a schedule that respects your commitments and keeps the process moving along.
Once we confirm the time, we show up ready to work, usually finishing up faster than you would expect. That leaves you with plenty of time to enjoy your newly refreshed bathroom and get back to your regular routine.
When you hire a pro, you are paying for the experience of knowing exactly how to handle different types of materials. Whether your tub is fiberglass, steel, or old-school cast iron, we have the right approach for it.
This level of care creates a result that looks seamless and professional, not like a quick patch job. You will be surprised at how much difference a high-quality finish makes in the overall atmosphere of your home.
At the end of the day, we want you to be so happy with the results that you tell your friends and family. We do not consider a project complete until we see the look of relief and joy on your face.
If you have any follow-up questions after we leave, we are always here to help. Your peace of mind is just as important to us as the quality of the finish we provide on your tub.
There is no better feeling than walking into a bathroom and seeing a sparkling, clean tub that looks brand new. You can make this a reality for yourself by taking the simple step of contacting a local pro today.

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 Dyker 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.
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.
