A dull or chipped tub in Englewood 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.
Do you hate looking at that chipped washing fixture in your bathroom every single morning? Fortunately, you can fix it today by requesting a free estimate from our local team right here in Arapahoe County.
Most homeowners think buying a brand new bathing receptacle costs a small fortune. However, choosing our specialized resurfacing method saves you thousands of dollars instantly. This smart financial choice lets you keep your original plumbing layout intact without demolition mess.
Old fixtures often develop stubborn stains and rough patches that standard scrubbing simply cannot cure. Yet, our chemical bonding agents create a brand new finish over your worn porcelain. Which means you enjoy a silky smooth bathing area that looks straight out of a magazine.
Demolition projects usually damage surrounding tile and drywall during removal. But our on-site spraying technique avoids all structural teardowns completely. This leaves your bathroom walls and floors completely untouched and safe from harm.
First, our technicians clean the entire tub surface using heavy-duty industrial solvents. This rigorous prep work removes decades of soap scum, body oils, and mineral buildup. Such deep cleaning guarantees that the new acrylic coating sticks permanently.
Next, we etch the porcelain or fiberglass to create microscopic grip points. Following this important step, we apply a specialized primer coat to lock everything down. This lets the topcoats bond securely for decades of heavy daily use.
Finally, we spray multiple layers of high-gloss aliphatic urethane across the entire basin. This advanced polymer formulation dries into a rock-hard shield against scratches and chipping. Which means your morning routine feels luxurious without the massive remodeling price tag.
Thorough ventilation is absolutely mandatory before any chemical application begins in your home. Therefore, we set up powerful exhaust systems to vent fumes outside safely. This thoughtful precaution keeps your indoor air clean and breathable throughout the appointment.
Masking off surrounding areas protects your floors and vanity from accidental overspray. Furthermore, we seal every drain and faucet to prevent any debris from entering your plumbing. This careful attention to detail saves you from unexpected cleanup headaches later.
Professional HVLP sprayers apply an even coat without any drips or runs. Consequently, you get a factory-fresh appearance that matches high-end bathroom fixtures. On top of that, the entire spraying phase usually finishes in just a few hours.
Curing times vary based on humidity, but most projects cure within twenty-four hours. During this short waiting period, the polymer hardens into a durable barrier. This lets you resume normal usage of your washing facility very quickly.
Living around ZIP codes 80110, 80111, 80112, 80113 means property upkeep requires smart budgeting. Since the median household income hovers around fifty-six thousand dollars, every penny counts. Therefore, choosing a professional spray treatment instead of a full tear-out keeps your savings account healthy.
Replacing a cast iron tub involves hiring plumbers, carpenters, and tile setters. Conversely, our single-trade service handles the entire transformation from start to finish. This streamlined approach drastically reduces labor costs and scheduling nightmares.
Real estate markets favor updated bathrooms when selling a residential property. Thus, upgrading your worn bathing fixture boosts your home appraisal value instantly. Which means you recoup your modest investment many times over if you decide to list your house.
Harsh abrasive scrubbers will scratch the new high-gloss urethane finish over time. Instead, use mild dish soap and a soft sponge for weekly cleanings. This simple habit keeps your renewed basin shining brightly for many years.
Bath bomb pigments and hair dyes can sometimes stain freshly coated surfaces if left unattended. Always rinse the basin thoroughly with warm water right after soaking. This preventative measure ensures your investment remains pristine and spotless.
Avoiding rubber mats with suction cups prevents premature wear on the bottom coating. Alternatively, use a non-slip fabric bath mat that you remove after each use. This extra care protects the integrity of the specialized bonding agents underneath.
With a thriving population of 33,820 residents, Englewood sees plenty of older homes needing updates. Rather than sending heavy cast iron tubs to local landfills, we renew them on site. This eco-friendly practice reduces construction waste and protects our environment.
Supporting local contractors keeps money circulating directly within our neighborhood economy. Furthermore, we take immense pride in delivering top-tier craftsmanship to every single client. That dedication is why so many neighbors trust us with their home improvement projects.
Neighborhood homes built decades ago feature solid construction but aging interior fixtures. Updating these classic bathrooms preserves architectural history while adding modern convenience. This harmonious balance creates comfortable living spaces for growing families.
Many clients wonder how long the new acrylic coating actually lasts under normal conditions. With proper care and gentle cleaning products, your renewed surface easily endures for over a decade. This impressive longevity rivals the lifespan of a brand new manufactured basin.
Another common question involves the chemical odors produced during the spraying procedure. Although strong smells occur temporarily, our advanced ventilation equipment eliminates them quickly. This ensures your household remains comfortable while we work our magic.
Some people worry about rust spots bubbling through the fresh white finish over time. However, our technicians treat all localized corrosion with rust neutralizers before priming. This thorough remediation stops oxidation dead in its tracks permanently.
| Upgrade Method | Average Cost | Time Required | Mess Level |
|---|---|---|---|
| Full Tub Replacement | High | One Week | Extreme |
| Acrylic Tub Liner | Medium | Two Days | Moderate |
| Professional Resurfacing | Low | One Day | Minimal |
Looking at the data above makes the smartest choice crystal clear for your household budget. Professional refinishing delivers maximum visual impact with minimal disruption to your daily routine. On top of that, you retain your original structural framing without any hidden surprises.
Older homes often feature custom tub dimensions that modern manufacturers no longer produce. Trying to fit a standard replacement unit into a non-standard alcove creates massive carpentry headaches. Fortunately, our coating service bypasses sizing issues entirely by working with what you already own.

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 Englewood, 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.
