A dull or chipped tub in Gera 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 can finally stop hiding your stained tub behind a heavy shower curtain because a complete transformation is much easier than you think.
Our skilled local team brings the ultimate resurfacing magic straight to your bathroom to wash away those stubborn chips and ugly discoloration.
We can save you thousands of dollars while delivering a gorgeous porcelain-like shine that will make you smile every single time you walk into the room.
Over the years, harsh abrasive cleaners scratch up the top protective layer of your tub.
This leaves the surface porous and ready to absorb every bit of dirt, soap scum, and hard water.
Which means you end up scrubbing on your hands and knees for hours with absolutely nothing to show for your hard work.
Fortunately, our specialized restoration process solves this headache by applying a high-tech liquid acrylic coating over your existing basin.
This creates a completely non-porous barrier that repels grime and wipes clean with just a simple swish of a soft sponge.
You get to enjoy a sparkling clean wash basin without risking your back or wasting your precious weekend hours on useless scrubbing.
On top of that, we tackle those annoying chips and deep scratches that look like rusty eyesores.
We patch them up using waterproof polyester fillers before we even think about spraying our shiny topcoat.
The final result is a perfectly smooth surface that looks like it just rolled off the factory assembly line.
| Problem | The Old Way (Replacement) | Our Smart Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Ugly stains and yellowing | Weeks of dusty demolition | Beautiful shiny coating in hours |
| Chips, dings, and rust spots | Expensive plumbing re-routing | Flawless repairs on the spot |
| High remodeling costs | Emptying your savings account | An affordable upgrade that lasts |
Many folks worry that a sprayed-on finish will just peel off after a few hot showers.
This only happens when lazy workers skip the critical prep steps or use cheap retail DIY kits from the big box stores.
We take our sweet time to clean, etch, and chemically prep the old surface so the new coating locks on forever.
First, we strip away any old peeling paint or weird residues from previous cheap cover-up jobs.
Then, we apply a proprietary bonding agent that acts like microscopic velcro to fuse the new material to the old substrate.
This ensures your beautiful new finish will never bubble, crack, or flake away when you fill the tub with hot water.
After that, we spray multiple layers of our heavy-duty aliphatic polyurethane coating using professional high-volume, low-pressure equipment.
This advanced material resists yellowing from ultraviolet light and stands up to daily wear and tear.
You get a brilliant, deep gloss that keeps its spectacular luster for up to a decade with very basic care.
You might have heard that these high-performance coatings can smell pretty strong during the application process.
Because we care about your lungs and your home, we bring heavy-duty exhaust fans and flexible ductwork to pull all fumes outside.
This means you and your family can relax in the next room without breathing in any nasty chemical odors.
Besides keeping the air clean, our meticulous setup process involves masking off every single inch of your bathroom.
We use premium drop cloths, plastic sheeting, and painter's tape to protect your vanity, toilet, walls, and flooring.
You will never have to worry about finding stray overspray on your expensive tile or fixtures once we pack up and leave.
Choosing a full bathroom remodel often turns into a massive money pit that drags on for weeks.
You start by ripping out the old cast iron tub, which usually breaks the surrounding wall tiles and damages the plumbing behind the drywall.
Before you know it, you are paying tile setters, plumbers, and drywall installers thousands of dollars to fix the collateral damage.
Instead of dealing with that chaotic circus, our convenient on-site service lets you keep your existing layout intact.
We complete the entire job in just a few hours, and you can jump back in the shower the very next day.
This keeps your home peaceful, your sanity intact, and your hard-earned cash right where it belongs: in your wallet.
Now, think about what you could do with all those savings while still enjoying a bathroom that looks like a luxury spa.
You could upgrade your lighting, buy some plush new towels, or just treat yourself to a nice weekend getaway.
It is the ultimate home improvement hack that smart homeowners always rave about to their neighbors.
If you live in an older home, you probably have one of those heavy, gorgeous cast iron tubs that are built like tanks.
These vintage fixtures hold heat incredibly well and boast a classic character that modern plastic tubs simply cannot match.
Replacing them is a crime, especially when we can restore their original grandeur right where they sit.
Our specialized coatings bond beautifully to cast iron, pressed steel, and even modern fiberglass or acrylic modules.
We preserve the historic charm of your home while upgrading the surface to modern standards of cleanliness.

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 Gera, 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.
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.
