A dull or chipped tub in Garden 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.
You probably stare at those cracked and yellowed bathroom basins and wish for a total change. Fortunately, you can transform your old washroom without the massive mess or heavy costs of a full remodel.
This process involves applying a fresh, high-tech coating to your existing porcelain or fiberglass units to make them look brand new. It creates a smooth and durable surface that feels just like a brand new tub.
Maybe you wonder why you should fix up your old unit instead of ripping it out completely. Ripping out a cast iron tub involves heavy labor, loud jackhammers, and weeks of dust everywhere.
Instead, this specialized resurfacing method lets you keep your original plumbing and layout intact. You get a refreshed space in just one day without the typical construction headaches that plague homeowners.
Most people find that replacing a tub costs thousands of dollars when you count labor and new materials. This alternative keeps your wallet happy while providing a sleek, glossy finish that resists stains and mold.
Basically, we start by deep cleaning the entire surface to remove decades of soap scum and mineral buildup. Then, we repair any chips or cracks using a special filler that dries rock hard.
After that prep work is done, we apply a bonding agent that ensures the new material sticks for years. The final step involves spraying multiple layers of a high-strength acrylic resin that seals everything perfectly.
This creates a layer of sheer ease that makes cleaning your bathroom a total breeze every single week. You will love how easily dirt wipes away from the non-porous surface we create for you.
| Feature | Benefit for you | |
|---|---|---|
| Non-porous coating | Faster cleaning times | |
| Durable resins | Long-lasting beauty | |
| Fast curing time | Bathroom ready in hours | |
| Custom colors | Matches your home style |
Perhaps you live in a charming place like the small town in Pickens County where neighbors know each other well. With a population around 553 people, you know that keeping your home value up is always a smart move.
Even if your household income sits around the $36,833 mark, you can still afford to upgrade your living space significantly. This specific project adds immediate value and makes your home much more attractive to future buyers.
Often, older houses in this area have sturdy cast iron tubs that just need a little bit of love. You can save these classic pieces instead of throwing them away into a local landfill.
Demolition is noisy, dirty, and dangerous for your lungs because of all that flying porcelain dust. By choosing to restore rather than replace, you eliminate the risk of damage to your floor tiles.
Most bathroom floors suffer during a full tub replacement because workers have to move heavy objects through tight spaces. This technique avoids those accidents and keeps your existing vanity and tile work completely safe.
Furthermore, you avoid the long wait times for custom order tubs that might arrive with dings. You get a perfect finish tailored to your preferences right there in your own home.
Naturally, you want to know how to keep that shiny finish looking great for as long as possible. Avoiding harsh scouring powders is the best way to keep the surface smooth and reflective.
Since we use specialized polymers, a simple mix of mild soap and warm water is usually plenty. This prevents you from spending your entire weekend scrubbing away at stubborn stains that just won't budge.
On top of that, you can use a soft sponge to wipe down the sides after each use. This simple habit keeps your fixture looking pristine and feeling wonderful whenever you step inside for a soak.
First, you reach out to get a free estimate so you know exactly what the job costs. There are no hidden fees or surprises when we arrive to start the work at your property.
Second, we schedule a time that fits your life perfectly without causing any major disruptions. You can leave the house while we work or watch the transformation happen right before your own eyes.
Finally, you get to enjoy a gorgeous and refreshed room that feels like a high-end spa. It really is that easy to improve your daily routine without breaking the bank or your schedule.
Some people worry that these coatings might peel off after a few months of regular usage. However, when you use a professional-grade bonding agent, the material fuses with the tub surface permanently.
It is definitely not like painting a wall because the chemicals are designed to withstand constant water exposure. You can count on the finish to stay firm and smooth for a very long time.
Whether you have a standard white tub or want a custom color, the options are quite broad today. You can pick something that matches your walls or go for a bold contrast to spice things up.

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 Garden, 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.

The technician who picks up when you call works these streets, so the ledger below is home turf rather than trivia.
Somewhere under that worn surface is the tub you chose. One day brings it back.
