A dull or chipped tub in Iona 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.

Maybe you are tired of staring at that ugly, stained surface every single time you want to take a relaxing soak.
This is because years of hard water and harsh scrubbers take a heavy toll on old fiberglass and porcelain.
Fortunately, a professional surface renewal process can erase all those ugly blemishes in just a single afternoon.
Instead of ripping out half of your drywall, you can opt for a smart, modern solution that coats your existing fixture.
Naturally, this keeps your home clean and prevents giant piles of heavy debris from heading straight to our local landfill.
Which means you get a shiny, sparkling finish that looks like it just came from a high-end showroom floor.
Think about the massive headache of hiring a crew to tear out a heavy cast iron basin from your home.
First, they have to smash the old tiles, which creates thick layers of dust that migrate everywhere.
Then, you have to pay a plumber a crazy amount of money just to hook up the new drain lines.
By choosing a specialized topcoat restoration instead, you completely bypass that loud and expensive construction nightmare.
We carefully prep the old surface, repair any deep chips, and spray on a high-tech liquid acrylic coating.
This process delivers incredible aesthetic appeal and pristine shine for a tiny fraction of replacement costs.
To help you compare your options, let us look at how these two different home improvement paths stack up side by side.
| Project Factor | Full Replacement Method | Our Specialized Coating Process |
|---|---|---|
| Project Duration | Usually 3 to 7 stressful days | Completed in about 4 to 6 hours |
| Mess and Dust Level | Extremely high throughout the house | Virtually none with our exhaust setup |
| Average Cost | Very expensive with plumbing fees | Super affordable for any budget |
Now, you can see why so many local homeowners prefer this fast and clever cosmetic upgrade.
Our skilled technicians apply specialized bonding agents that fuse directly with your old cast iron or acrylic basin.
Consequently, this creates a super smooth barrier that resists dirt and grime much better than before.
Perhaps you are wondering how we actually turn a dull, stained basin into a gleaming masterpiece so quickly.
Initially, we scrub the entire area with heavy-duty cleaners to strip away old soap scum and body oils.
This step is absolutely crucial because even a tiny speck of oil can ruin the bond of our new coating.
Next, we carefully repair any rusted spots, deep scratches, or ugly chips with a waterproof polyester filler.
Once those spots are completely flat, we spray a proprietary molecular bonding agent onto the clean substrate.
This high-tech chemical primer acts like a double-sided tape that locks the new topcoat to the old material.
Finally, we use a professional spray system to apply several layers of a premium aliphatic acrylic polyurethane finish.
After a brief curing period, your renewed basin will feel incredibly smooth and look absolutely spectacular.
On top of that, you can start using your upgraded bathroom again in as little as twenty-four hours.
While most homeowners love a classic, bright white finish, you do not have to limit your design choices.
We offer gorgeous off-white shades, warm almond tones, and even modern gray finishes to match your existing tile work.
This lets you customize your space to reflect your unique personal taste without buying a brand-new fixture.
If your old wall tiles are looking a bit sad and dated, we can actually coat those too.
This handy option lets you refresh the entire wet area of your bathroom in one single, seamless visit.
As a result, you get a clean, cohesive look that feels fresh and inviting every time you walk inside.
You might see cheap paint-on kits at your local home improvement store and feel tempted to try it yourself.
However, those cheap retail products usually consist of low-grade epoxy that rolls on with a brush or roller.
Which means you will end up with ugly brush marks, uneven spots, and a finish that peels off within months.
Furthermore, consumer kits do not include the industrial etching acids or professional ventilation systems we use every day.
Without proper safety gear, you run the risk of breathing in very strong fumes while working in a tight space.
Hiring a local crew ensures a flawless, durable finish that is safely applied with professional-grade equipment.
Living in our beautiful, humid coastal environment means we have to deal with unique home maintenance challenges.
For instance, mold and mildew love to grow in the damp, microscopic pores of worn-out porcelain and fiberglass surfaces.
Our non-porous acrylic barrier makes it incredibly difficult for those annoying allergens to take root in your tub.
According to census data, the lovely unincorporated community of Iona, Florida, is home to about 14,385 residents.
With a median household income of $55,749, local families appreciate smart ways to stretch their hard-earned dollars.
Whether you live in ZIP codes like 33908 or 33919 in Lee County, keeping your home value high is always a smart move.
If you plan to sell your property soon, a stained, peeling washroom can instantly turn off potential buyers.
A quick surface restoration gives your bathroom a clean, modern look that suggests the home has been meticulously maintained.
This simple project offers an incredible return on investment because it costs so little but looks so expensive.
Once we finish our magic, you will want to keep that glossy shine looking brand new for as long as possible.
Fortunately, caring for a restored basin is actually much easier than scrubbing a worn-out, porous old surface.
You can completely toss out those abrasive scouring powders and scratchy scrub sponges that ruin finishes over time.
Instead, you simply wipe down the smooth surface with a mild liquid dish soap or a gentle spray cleaner.
Using a soft microfiber cloth after each shower will prevent hard water spots from building up on the gloss.
This easy routine preserves the protective seal and ensures your washroom looks incredible for up to a decade.
On top of that, you should avoid placing heavy metal cans or sharp plastic toys directly on the new finish.
If you use a rubber bath mat, make sure to remove it after each use so water does not get trapped underneath.
These basic habits will protect your investment and keep that gorgeous, glass-like shine looking absolutely perfect.
Do not spend another day feeling embarrassed by the state of your worn-out, discolored washroom fixtures.

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 Iona, 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.
