A dull or chipped tub in Hollins 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.

Instead of paying thousands for a full replacement, you can choose to coat your worn-out basin with a durable high-tech finish.
This specialized process bonds a fresh, shiny layer directly over your old cast iron or fiberglass.
Which means you get a gorgeous luster that resists chips and stains for years to come.
Many folks worry that their old surface is simply too far gone for a simple save.
However, our deep cleaning and repair techniques can fix even the worst chips, rust spots, and ugly color schemes from the seventies.
We carefully apply a chemical bonding agent that ensures the new topcoat sticks like glue.
| Project Step | Your Concrete Benefit |
|---|---|
| Surface Etching | Ensures the new finish sticks forever without peeling. |
| Chip Repair | Smooths out dangerous cracks and annoying rough spots. |
| Topcoat Application | Delivers a beautiful, glassy shine that looks brand new. |
Now, you might wonder if this process smells bad during the application.
To prevent this, we bring heavy-duty exhaust fans to vent any odors safely out of your window.
This setup protects your indoor air quality so you can relax while we do the hard work.
Living in this beautiful community of 14,257 people means you appreciate quality craftsmanship and honest local service.
Because we know the local water conditions and housing styles around the area, we use products designed to withstand years of daily use.
Our work matches the high standards of a neighborhood with a median household income of $65,473.
If you reside in the local ZIP codes like 24019, you are just a quick drive from our service hub.
This proximity allows us to arrive on time and finish most projects in just a single afternoon.
On top of that, you will not have to wait weeks for plumbers to finish their messy installations.
Sometimes, DIY kits from the local hardware store look tempting to budget-conscious homeowners.
But those cheap retail paints usually peel off within a few months, leaving you with a sticky, ruined mess.
By hiring our experienced crew, you secure a commercial-grade finish that stands the test of time.
First, we scrub the old porcelain with specialized cleaners to strip away decades of soap scum and body oils.
This critical step removes every trace of invisible residue that could ruin the final bond.
Without this deep prep work, the new coating would simply bubble up and fail.
Next, we mask off your entire bathroom with protective paper and plastic sheets to shield your walls and floors.
This meticulous setup prevents any overspray from landing on your vanity, toilet, or nice tile floors.
We treat your home with the utmost respect, leaving absolutely zero mess behind for you to clean.
Before we spray a single drop of the shiny topcoat, we fill in every single scratch and dent with a waterproof polyester putty.
This step makes the damaged areas completely disappear under the new layers.
Consequently, you get a perfectly flat surface that feels incredibly smooth against your skin.
If your drain area has nasty rust rings, we sand them down to bare metal and apply a rust-inhibiting primer.
This prevents the corrosion from eating its way back to the surface later on.
This extra care ensures your newly restored basin stays beautiful and bright for a very long time.
Replacing a tub requires ripping out tile, moving heavy pipes, and hiring expensive specialized contractors.
Which often leaves you without a usable bathroom for a week or even longer.
By choosing our restoration service, you keep your bathroom fully functional with almost zero downtime.
This path saves you thousands of dollars that you can spend on other home improvement projects instead.
On top of that, you keep perfectly good fixtures out of our local Virginia landfills.
It is a sustainable choice that benefits both your wallet and the local environment.
To make things even better, our glossy finish makes daily cleaning an absolute breeze.
Since the new surface is non-porous, dirt and grime cannot find a place to hide.
You can simply wipe it down with a mild soap and a soft sponge to keep it sparkling.
When our friendly technician arrives at your door, we start with a quick inspection to confirm the scope of work.
This ensures we are both on the same page before any work begins.
We then lay down drop cloths along our walking path to keep your carpets clean.
Once the prep work is complete, we use a professional spray system to apply multiple coats of our premium acrylic urethane.
This precise equipment creates an even, factory-like finish that looks identical to brand new porcelain.
After a short curing time, your shiny fixture is completely ready for a warm bath.
To keep this finish looking pristine, we always share a few simple care tips before we pack up our tools.
Avoiding harsh abrasive cleansers like bleach or steel wool will protect the glossy shine for decades.
This simple routine guarantees you get the maximum value out of your investment.

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 Hollins, 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.
