A dull or chipped tub in Jennings Lodge 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.
Fixing up your old worn out wash basin is the best way to save tons of cash today. Right away, you get a fresh shiny surface without paying thousands for a full bathroom remodel. So if your home needs a fast upgrade, getting a cost-free estimate will help you start this awesome project immediately.
Actually, many folks think throwing away a chipped heavy tub is the only choice. That mess takes weeks and ruins your tile walls completely. Instead, sprayed chemical coatings cover up ugly stains and dark rust spots real quick. After all, nobody wants to spend their whole weekend scrubbing nasty grime that just refuses to leave.
Besides that, this smart refinishing method fills in deep scratches using special hard resins. Furthermore, your wash tub ends up looking totally brand new in just a single afternoon. Surprisingly, the whole process stays pretty clean because we seal off the room with plastic sheets. Plus, you get to save your hard-earned dollars for other fun stuff in life.
To be honest, living near the sparkling Willamette River means we all love keeping our homes looking super nice and cozy. Indeed, houses in this sweet corner of Clackamas County have classic charm that deserves proper care. For instance, fixing what you already own preserves the original character of your cozy house while boosting its market value. Naturally, you get a clean bathing spot without any huge construction headaches ruining your day.
To start off, we thoroughly clean the whole surface with intense heavy-duty degreasers. Next, our crew sands down the glossy glaze so the fresh layer sticks super strong. Therefore, you do not have to worry about ugly peeling paint later on down the road. Honestly, doing this prep work right takes a lot of patience and steady hands.
Consequently, we apply a thick liquid bonding agent that locks onto the base material tightly. Afterward, multiple layers of high-grade synthetic acrylic get sprayed evenly across the basin floor and sides. Which means the topcoat cures into a super hard shell that resists hot water pressure effortlessly. On top of that, the smooth shell feels wonderful on your feet when taking a relaxing shower.
As a matter of fact, doing this job requires professional safety gear like heavy air respirators. Because the chemical fumes are super strong during application, proper exhaust fans must blow air outside through open windows. Honestly, trying a cheap DIY store kit usually ends up looking like sticky dripping milk. However, getting a proper crew ensures a mirror finish that lasts for years without flaking off.
| Project Step | What We Do | Your Direct Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| Deep Scrubbing | Remove soap scum and hidden oils | Ensures strong surface adhesion |
| Damage Repair | Fill cracks with high-tech epoxy compound | Creates a smooth seamless bottom |
| Bonding Coat | Apply heavy liquid adhesive layer | Prevents future peeling or chipping |
| Topcoat Spray | Layer durable shiny acrylic finish | Gives a bright factory fresh appearance |
First of all, ripping out an old cast iron tub tears up your floorboards and wall tiles. Indeed, plumber fees and disposal trash costs add up way too fast. However, resurfacing leaves your surrounding walls completely untouched and safe from harm. Furthermore, you dodge weeks of dusty construction noise echoing through your peaceful hallway.
Along with that, high quality resin finishes protect against tough mineral water stains. Since local homes in the 97267 area code often face hard water deposits, having a strong non-porous layer helps a lot. Thus, wiping down the tub takes only a few quick swipes with a mild sponge. On top of that, you stop wasting money on toxic harsh chemical bleaches that smell terrible.
Look, who actually enjoys waiting a whole month just to use their own shower again? Virtually nobody wants that kind of crazy stress in their daily routine. Luckily, the fresh liquid coating cures fast so your bathing area stays ready in less than two full days. Simply put, this affordable method gives maximum high-end style with minimum annoying wait time.
In addition, keeping your current fixtures keeps heavy broken porcelain out of our local Oregon landfills. Environmental care matters to everyone around here, so restoring old stuff makes complete sense. Besides, saving cash on home repairs lets families enjoy life without financial worry. Honestly, making smart choices around the house feels really rewarding when the job turns out awesome.
Mind you, properties here with average household incomes near fifty-two thousand bucks benefit huge from smart fixes. Instead of spending ten grand on a full demo, spending a small fraction gets similar stunning visual results. For example, local landlords use this fast service to prep rental units between tenants super quick. Consequently, your property looks totally high-end while keeping your bank balance healthy and happy.
What is more, a shiny sparkling basin completely brightens up small dark bathrooms without changing the room footprint. Light bounces off the polished topcoat, making your entire space feel way larger and cleaner instantly. In short, your daily morning routine feels far more delightful when stepping into a gleaming brilliant space. Your friends will totally think you spent a fortune on brand new fancy plumbing fixtures.
For starters, if your bathing spot feels rough like sandpaper on your skin, the original glaze wore off completely. Over time, bare porcelain traps dirty oil and soapy sludge real deep into its tiny pores. Hence, no matter how hard you scrub, the tub still looks kinda grey and nasty. So applying a fresh liquid coat seals those microscopic holes for good.
Besides that, visible rust circles around the drain hole mean water is attacking the underlying raw metal. Left alone, rust eats holes right through cast iron and creates massive costly leaks inside your floorboards. Luckily, scraping away rust and sealing the area stops corrosion from spreading any further. Therefore, addressing minor surface rust today saves your subfloor from rotting out tomorrow.
To put it simply, tiny hairline cracks might look small now, but hot water makes them expand constantly. Water gets trapped underneath, creating hidden mold colonies that smell terrible and ruin air quality. Thus, fixing those stress cracks promptly protects your family health and keeps the structural base rock solid. A quick cosmetic restoration fixes all these annoying problems in one single visit.
Now then, looking after your newly polished area is shockingly easy if you follow a few basic rules. Simply avoid using abrasive powder cleansers that scratch up shiny acrylic finishes over time. Instead, gentle dish soap or standard liquid spray cleaner works like magic to remove dirt. Because the new coat is non-porous, grime slides off without any tough elbow grease needed.
In addition to that, never leave suction cup bath mats laying on the bottom surface for long periods. Moisture gets trapped under rubber cups, which can weaken the underlying chemical bond over many months. Rather, use a soft woven mat that dries out fully between every single warm shower. By taking this simple step, your shiny restored surface stays pristine for a super long time.
Finally, fix leaky faucets quickly so dripping water does not sit continuously on the fresh drain ring. While modern synthetic coatings are extremely tough, constantly dripping water can leave stubborn mineral rings over time. As a result, maintaining your plumbing valves keeps your restored basin sparkling bright like the day it got done. It really takes minimal effort to keep everything looking fantastic for decades.
So then, why keep staring at that dull rusty wash basin every time you walk into your washroom? Taking action today brings back that stunning clean look without breaking your family budget at all. Furthermore, our friendly local technicians drive straight to your front doorstep ready to measure up your space carefully. You get honest pricing upfront without any hidden high-pressure sales pitch.
Therefore, getting your zero-cost project quote takes just a tiny moment of your precious time. We look forward to meeting our great neighbors across this awesome community of over eight thousand residents. Which means you can sit back, relax, and let skilled hands handle all the messy chemical work safely. Plus, your bright shiny new bathroom will make you smile every time you turn on the hot water tap.

Immediately, we will organize a convenient time to drop by your home and inspect your worn plumbing 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 Jennings Lodge, 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.
