A dull or chipped tub in Fairport 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.
That dingy, stained basin in your bathroom probably makes you shudder every single time you step in to take a quick shower. Fortunately, you can completely avoid the massive headache of a full demolition by opting for a professional surface restoration instead. This smart choice instantly transforms your worn-out wash area into a shining, clean masterpiece while keeping your hard-earned cash in your wallet.
Think about the sheer chaos of ripping out heavy cast iron or old fiberglass. By choosing our specialized resurfacing process, you skip the dusty pile of debris and the loud hammering of contractors. Our friendly local team brings the entire setup right to your doorstep to deliver a flawless, glassy finish that looks identical to a brand-new fixture.
You deserve a beautiful home that feels like a relaxing retreat after a long day of work. Because we believe in making home improvements incredibly simple, we provide a completely free written estimate to help you plan your project with total confidence. Let us take a closer look at how this budget-friendly magic works and why it makes so much sense for your property.
Many homeowners assume that buying a new basin at the local home improvement store is a cheap fix. However, they quickly realize that the retail price of the unit is just a tiny fraction of the total bill. You also have to pay for costly plumbing alterations, expensive wall tile repairs, and heavy disposal fees to haul away the old junk.
Which means a simple weekend project can easily spiral into a multi-thousand-dollar financial nightmare that leaves your home unusable for weeks. On top of that, older homes often contain sturdy, high-quality fixtures that are actually much better than the cheap plastic models sold today. Our system preserves that vintage character while applying a ultra-durable, sparkling new coat right over the existing structure.
| Project Factor | Full Replacement Method | Our Premium Resurfacing Service |
|---|---|---|
| Average Duration | 3 to 7 stressful days | Only 4 to 6 total hours |
| Mess and Dust Level | Extremely high throughout the house | Virtually zero mess left behind |
| Average Cost | Very expensive | Highly affordable and budget-friendly |
| Plumbing Changes Required | Almost always necessary | Absolutely none required |
This handy comparison table clearly shows how much hassle you save by choosing the smarter path. By restoring what you already own, you protect your savings while still getting that satisfying, clean-slate feeling. We make the entire process completely painless from the moment you call us to the final reveal.
First, our skilled technicians carefully prepare the workspace by masking off your floors, walls, and vanity to keep everything spotless. We then use industrial ventilation systems to pull any odors or overspray safely out of your home while we work. This crucial step guarantees that your indoor air quality remains clean and breathable during the entire application.
Next, we strip away all the old, failing DIY glaze layers and scrub the original surface with specialized acid cleaners. This deep cleaning removes years of soap scum, body oils, and stubborn mineral deposits that normal household cleaners cannot touch. Once the surface is perfectly etched, we repair any deep scratches, chips, or rust spots with a durable waterproof filler.
After achieving a perfectly smooth foundation, we apply a high-tech molecular bonding agent that acts like a super-glue between the old material and the new coat. We then spray several coats of a premium acrylic polyurethane topcoat using specialized high-volume, low-pressure equipment. This advanced material cures into a rock-hard, high-gloss shield that resists scratches and looks incredibly beautiful.
Living in a wonderful canal town with a population of 5,349 means that reputation is absolutely everything to us. Our neighbors in Monroe County know that we do not cut corners or use cheap retail spray kits that peel off after a few months. We treat every single home with the utmost respect, as if we were working in our own mother's bathroom.
Since the median household income here is $75,212, we understand that local families want to invest their money wisely in home improvements that actually last. Whether you live in a cozy historic home or a modern property in the 14450 ZIP code area, we tailor our restoration services to fit your specific needs. Our deep roots in the local New York region mean we stand behind our craftsmanship with pride.
Working with us means you get personalized, friendly service from local people who genuinely care about your satisfaction. We explain every option clearly without any confusing industry jargon or pushy high-pressure sales tactics. You get honest advice, a fair price, and a stunning bathroom upgrade that will make your guests jealous.
Once we pack up our tools and leave your bathroom looking brand new, taking care of the finish is surprisingly easy. You must avoid harsh abrasive cleaners like steel wool or gritty scouring powders because they can dull the glossy shine over time. Instead, we highly recommend using mild dish soap, a soft sponge, or a gentle foaming cleaner to keep things spotless.
Actually, the non-porous nature of our premium topcoat makes it much easier to clean than old, worn-out porcelain. Dust and grime simply wipe away with minimal effort, saving you from painful scrubbing sessions on your hands and knees. This convenient benefit means you spend far less time cleaning and more time enjoying your beautiful home.
Another smart tip is to repair any dripping faucets quickly because constant water drops can eventually wear down even the toughest finishes. Also, avoid leaving wet washcloths or heavy shampoo bottles sitting directly on the surface for extended periods. Following these simple guidelines ensures your beautiful wash basin remains bright, clean, and shiny for a decade or more...

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 Fairport, 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.
