A dull or chipped tub in Greenville 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 stained old basin in your bathroom every morning? Well fixing it up is way cheaper than you think.
That dingy fixture brings down your whole morning routine. Luckily you can fix it fast.
Now everybody wants a fresh-looking bathroom without spending thousands of dollars. This service lets you skip the messy demolition work entirely.
By spraying a fresh coat of high-grade acrylic resins, your old surface looks brand new again. This means you avoid weeks of dusty construction noise.
Plus you save a ton of hard-earned cash on costly plumbing teardowns. That leaves more money in your pocket for weekend trips.
Instead of ripping out heavy cast iron, pros spray a bonding agent right over the original porcelain. This special glue bonds the new finish tightly to the old material.
After that, they apply multiple layers of durable polyurethane or epoxy coating. This gives you a gorgeous glossy shine that lasts for years.
Meanwhile local residents in the 27834 area code deal with hard water stains all the time. Our special sealing process stops mineral buildup dead in its tracks.
Consequently you spend less time scrubbing on your hands and knees. That means more free time to enjoy your weekends.
Replacing a tub requires smashing the old unit into tiny pieces. That heavy debris wrecks your floors and creates a massive headache.
Alternatively our crew simply preps the room and masks off your tiles. This saves your drywall from getting banged up during the hustle.
Furthermore pulling out plumbing fixtures often triggers unexpected pipe leaks inside the walls. Fixing those hidden leaks adds huge surprise fees to your final bill.
On top of that, your bathroom stays usable again in just twenty-four hours. Which means zero disruption to your busy daily schedule.
First the technician cleans the entire surface to remove soap scum and body oils. This deep cleaning step ensures the new coating grips properly.
Next they acid etch the old porcelain to create microscopic pores for maximum adhesion. This gritty prep work makes sure the spray never peels off.
Following that crucial step, all chips and cracks get filled with waterproof polyester putty. This creates a completely smooth foundation before the spraying starts.
Finally the multi-layer spraying begins using a high-volume low-pressure turbine system. This equipment lays down an ultra-smooth finish without any ugly brush strokes.
Taking care of your newly finished basin requires mild dish soap and a soft sponge. Harsh scouring powders will dull that brand-new shine in no time.
Fortunately minor care goes a long way toward keeping your bathroom looking pristine. This simple maintenance routine protects your warranty coverage too.
Besides that, you want to fix any dripping faucets right away to prevent rust spots. Small leaks can ruin even the toughest factory finishes over time.
By following these easy tips, your upgraded centerpiece stays gorgeous for over a decade. That represents an incredible return on your small upfront investment.
Let us look at how the numbers break down for homeowners in this region. The median household income sits around thirty-seven thousand dollars, so saving money matters.
Full bathroom remodels easily run ten grand or more once you hire carpenters and plumbers. That price tag breaks most family budgets instantly.
Conversely restoring your existing basin costs a tiny fraction of that heavy expense. You get the exact same visual upgrade for pennies on the dollar.
Reviewing our price comparison table below helps clarify the financial difference:
| Project Type | Average Cost | Time Required |
|---|---|---|
| Full Replacement | $5,500+ | 1 to 3 Weeks |
| Surface Restoration | $450 - $650 | 1 Day |
| DIY Kit | $50 - $100 | 3 Days of Frustration |
Looking at those numbers makes the choice pretty obvious for budget-conscious families. You keep your hard-earned cash while getting luxury results.
Our thriving municipality inside Mecklenburg County houses over ninety-one thousand proud residents. Many of these neighborhoods feature classic mid-century homes with older bathrooms.
Neighborhoods across ZIP codes like 27833 and 27835 often feature avocado green or pastel pink fixtures. Restoring those dated colors instantly modernizes your entire living space.
Furthermore historic properties deserve preservation rather than getting thrown into landfills. Refinishing keeps original cast iron tubs right where they belong.
Consequently you maintain the architectural charm of your vintage home while enjoying modern performance. That represents a huge win for historical preservation enthusiasts.
Hardware stores sell cheap paint kits that promise professional results for fifty bucks. Sadly those cheap box-store formulas peel and bubble within a few months.
Professional applications require industrial-grade primers and specialized ventilation gear to cure correctly. Breathing those strong chemical vapors without a respirator is extremely dangerous.

That expertise guarantees a factory-smooth finish that will never peel or flake off. You get peace of mind knowing the job was done right the first time.

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 Greenville, 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.
