A dull or chipped tub in Jensen Beach 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.
Today you can easily fix that ugly tub without spending a fortune on a complete bathroom gut job. This local service gives your old bathroom basin a brand new look right in your home. Read on to find out how you can save money today.
Now you might be wondering why your porcelain looks so dull and feels rough to the touch. Years of harsh scrubbing and abrasive cleaners slowly eat away at the shiny factory finish. Fortunately, this specialized restoration process fills in microscopic pores and leaves a glossy layer that shines brightly.
First the crew arrives at your house with all the heavy-duty gear needed for the job. They scrub every single inch of the old fixture using professional-grade bonding agents to strip away soap scum. This intense cleaning guarantees that the new coating will stick tightly for many years.
Next they tape off the surrounding tile and walls to protect your bathroom from stray spray. Such careful masking lets you avoid accidental paint splatters on your favorite vanity or floors. Therefore you get a clean workspace with zero mess left behind when the crew packs up.
Then the technicians spray a specialized catalyzed polyurethane coating directly onto the prepared surface. This thick liquid cures rapidly and forms a rock-hard shield against future scratches and chips. Which means your morning routine happens inside a basin that looks brand new again.
After the spraying finishes the curing phase begins and takes just a few short hours. This quick turnaround lets you use your newly refreshed bathroom sooner than you might expect. On top of that you avoid weeks of construction dust floating through your hallways.
When you look at the price tag of a full bathroom remodel your jaw probably drops. Tearing out a heavy cast iron tub requires hiring plumbers and paying for expensive disposal fees. However choosing local surface renewal cuts those massive expenses down by a huge margin.
| Restoration Method | Typical Expense | Time Required |
|---|---|---|
| Full Replacement | Five thousand dollars or more | One to two weeks |
| Surface Refinishing | A fraction of replacement cost | One single day |
This handy cost comparison shows why so many homeowners in the 34957 area choose to spray instead of replace. By keeping your existing tub in place you eliminate structural carpentry work entirely. Consequently your wallet stays fat and your bathroom stays intact.
Living near the coast means salt air can sometimes wreak havoc on metal and porcelain fixtures over time. This professional resurfacing creates an impervious barrier that blocks moisture and prevents rust from forming underneath. Thus your vintage basin handles the humid Florida climate with absolute ease.
Furthermore the median household income hovers around fifty-three thousand dollars here in this charming locale. Smart homeowners constantly look for budget-friendly ways to boost their property value without draining their savings accounts. This cosmetic upgrade delivers a luxurious aesthetic boost that appraisers and buyers genuinely appreciate.
With roughly thirteen thousand residents calling this seaside community home, properties range from cozy beach bungalows to spacious suburban houses. Many of these dwellings feature original fixtures from decades past that desperately need modern care. Therefore reviving these tubs preserves the historical charm while adding contemporary durability.
In addition, local real estate trends show that updated bathrooms sell homes much faster on the open market. Buyers love walking into a pristine washroom without any lingering stains or outdated yellow hues. Because of this strategic renovation your house stands out from the competition instantly.
Once the technicians finish their magic you need to know how to keep that finish looking pristine. Always use mild liquid dish soap and a soft sponge instead of abrasive scouring pads. This gentle cleaning routine prevents microscopic scratches from dulling your shiny new surface.
Plus you should avoid letting heavy objects drop directly onto the bottom of the basin. While the new coating resists normal wear and tear, heavy impacts can still cause chips. Therefore treating your refreshed fixture with a bit of care ensures it lasts for decades.
Now you possess all the essential facts about upgrading your worn bathroom centerpiece without the typical remodeling nightmare. Stopping those daily frustrations is simpler than you ever imagined possible. Reach out right now to schedule your visit and discover how affordable this transformation really is.

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 Jensen Beach, 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.
