A dull or chipped tub in Island City 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 worn-out tub in your bathroom? You can easily transform your wash area today by requesting a free estimate from our local crew right here in the Pacific Northwest. Let us show you how a quick surface makeover saves you thousands over buying a brand-new fixture.
Right now, homeowners across our lovely little community of 1,028 residents face the tough choice of remodeling or replacing tired bathroom fixtures. Yet, tearing out a heavy cast iron or fiberglass tub creates a huge mess and costs a small fortune. Fortunately, our local trade specialists bring tired bathroom centerpieces back to life without all that heavy demolition work.
First, our skilled technicians clean the entire surface to remove decades of soap scum, hard water scale, and stubborn body oils. Then, we apply a strong bonding agent so the new acrylic coating sticks permanently to the old porcelain or fiberglass. This clever method lets you enjoy a gorgeous glossy finish that resists future stains and daily wear.
After that initial prep work, we spray multiple layers of high-grade aliphatic urethane directly onto the basin walls. Meanwhile, you get to relax while our crew handles all the smelly fumes with industrial ventilation fans. That means your family stays safe and your house smells fresh throughout the entire remodeling afternoon.
Swapping out an old tub usually requires destroying tile walls and paying expensive plumbers for hours of tricky pipe reconfiguration. Instead, our surface restoration service keeps your existing plumbing completely untouched and safely in place. Consequently, you save precious time and avoid months of messy construction chaos inside your master bathroom.
Plus, the median household income in our specific part of Union County sits around fifty-six thousand dollars, meaning every home improvement dollar counts. Therefore, choosing a surface refresh instead of a costly gut job leaves plenty of cash in your wallet for other family projects. By the way, our service covers local areas sharing the standard regional ZIP codes.
| Restoration Option | Full Replacement Option |
|---|---|
| Takes just a few hours | Takes several long weeks |
| Costs a fraction of replacement | Costs thousands in labor and parts |
| Keeps your original tile walls safe | Destroys surrounding walls and floors |
Looking at this helpful comparison chart makes the smartest financial choice pretty obvious for most budget-conscious homeowners. Furthermore, our professional team guarantees that your newly sprayed basin will look and feel just like a showroom-fresh model. This lets you splash around during bath time without worrying about sharp chips or rough spots scratching your skin.
Over the years, harsh chemical cleaners slowly strip away the factory shine from your bathtub until the rough material grabs dirt instantly. Fortunately, our proprietary spraying techniques completely seal up those micro-abrasions and deep rust stains for good. As a result, you wipe down your tub in seconds instead of scrubbing on your knees with a stiff wire brush.
Sometimes minor shifting in the subfloor causes annoying hairline cracks to form right along the bottom of your shower insert. However, our crew fills those structural fractures with heavy-duty epoxy before spraying the final topcoat over the entire basin. This smart repair step prevents hidden water leaks from rotting out your wooden floorboards underneath the plumbing.
Remember when avocado green and mustard yellow bathroom fixtures were the absolute peak of modern interior design style? Today, those funky vintage colors make your entire house feel dated and dark when guests come over to visit. Luckily, we can spray a crisp bright white or a soft almond finish over that ancient color scheme in no time.
Transitioning to a clean neutral shade instantly brightens up cramped bathroom spaces and makes the whole room feel much larger. On top of that, a sparkling white basin reflects overhead lighting beautifully so you can actually see what you are doing. This simple cosmetic upgrade also boosts your property value if you plan on putting your house on the local real estate market soon.
When you schedule a visit from our friendly local technicians, we arrive right on time with all our specialized gear ready. First, we mask off your surrounding vanity, toilet, and floor tiles with heavy plastic sheeting to catch any stray overspray. This meticulous protection step ensures your bathroom stays neat and tidy while we work our magic on your tub.
Next, we etch the worn enamel surface to create microscopic grooves that grab our proprietary primer with unbelievable strength. Following that crucial bonding step, we apply two thick coats of high-gloss aliphatic urethane using a professional HVLP spray gun. This leaves you with a silky-smooth finish that feels incredible against your bare feet.
Keeping your newly coated tub looking gorgeous for years requires just a few simple cleaning habits and gentle soap products. Therefore, you should always avoid abrasive scouring powders and harsh bleach solutions that slowly dull the glossy topcoat. Instead, grab a soft sponge and mild dish soap to wipe away everyday grime with minimal effort.
Another smart habit involves rinsing out hair dye and bath bombs immediately after use so pigments never settle into the fresh pores. Meanwhile, fixing leaky faucets right away prevents ugly mineral deposits from building up on your newly sprayed drain ring. These easy maintenance steps ensure your bathroom centerpiece stays radiant and smooth for over a decade.

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 Island City, 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.
