A dull or chipped tub in Lake Shore 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.
Maybe you look at your outdated washing area every morning and feel a sudden wave of defeat. Those ugly chips and that strange yellow tint from decades of use can really ruin your daily mood.

This smart process saves you a massive amount of time while keeping your home perfectly intact. You get a gorgeous shiny finish that looks exactly like a brand new installation but at a tiny fraction of the standard replacement cost.
By choosing this advanced refinishing method, you avoid the giant headaches of dealing with dusty drywall work and expensive plumbing rerouting. We are happy to visit your home and evaluate your project to provide a completely free estimate. This means you can plan your budget with total confidence and zero pressure.
Many homeowners confuse this specialized bonding process with cheap DIY paint kits that you buy at the local hardware store. Actually, those cheap retail kits usually peel off within a few months because they lack industrial-strength bonding agents. Our process involves a deep chemical clean followed by a molecular primer that fuses the new coating to your old porcelain or fiberglass.
This careful preparation ensures that the new glossy layer will not bubble or crack when you fill the basin with hot water. Since we use commercial-grade ventilation equipment, we safely pull any chemical odors right out of your home while we work. The result is a pristine, rock-hard surface that feels incredibly smooth to the touch and resists daily wear.
To help you understand how this compares to traditional remodeling, we created a simple breakdown of the two paths. This comparison shows why so many of your neighbors choose restoration over destruction.
| Factor to Consider | Full Replacement Project | Our Specialized Coating Service |
|---|---|---|
| Total Project Duration | Usually 3 to 7 days of loud construction | Finished in just 4 to 6 hours |
| Average Project Cost | Very high due to plumbing and tile repairs | Highly affordable for any budget |
| Mess and Cleanup | Heavy drywall dust and broken tiles | Virtually zero mess left behind |
| Lifespan of Surface | Long-lasting but extremely disruptive | Lasts for many years with simple care |
Living in this beautiful Pacific Northwest community means you appreciate both smart financial choices and preserving the character of local homes. Many properties in this lovely area of Clark County feature sturdy older fixtures that are built much better than modern plastic alternatives. Saving these classic pieces preserves the vintage charm of your home while keeping heavy waste out of our local landfills.
With a local population of 7,909 residents, people here really value honest craftsmanship and reliable neighborhood services. Homeowners in the region enjoy a healthy median household income of $85,244, which means they appreciate high quality but still want to spend their hard-earned money wisely. Whether you live in the local ZIP codes or nearby, our mobile crew arrives fully equipped to transform your space in a single afternoon.
Additionally, you will love how incredibly easy the new surface is to keep clean after we finish the job. Because the new coating is completely non-porous, dirt and soap scum cannot find a place to stick or hide. This means you can say goodbye to those exhausting scrubbing sessions with harsh chemical cleaners forever.
First, we carefully mask off your entire bathroom with protective plastic sheeting to guard your walls and flooring. This protective step ensures that not a single drop of overspray lands where it should not. We also seal off the drain and faucet fixtures with specialized heavy-duty tape.
Next, we apply a specialized acid paste to etch the old porcelain or acrylic surface. This etching process creates microscopic pores that allow our high-tech bonding agent to grip the old fixture with immense strength. We then repair any deep chips, rust spots, or scratches using a waterproof polyester filler.
After the prep work is complete, we spray multiple layers of an advanced acrylic urethane topcoat. This premium material cures into a beautiful, high-gloss shield that looks incredibly rich and deep. Once we remove the masking paper and clean up our workspace, your washroom is ready to use in just twenty-four hours.
While most homeowners prefer a classic, bright sanitary white, we can customize the color to match your specific style. This design flexibility lets you modernize an old pink or green fixture without replacing your matching wall tiles. You can create a peaceful, contemporary sanctuary that feels warm and inviting every time you step inside.
Furthermore, we can add a specialized slip-resistant texture to the bottom of the basin during the spraying process. This invisible safety feature provides excellent grip for your feet without looking ugly or feeling rough. It offers great peace of mind for families with young children or elderly relatives who need extra stability.
To keep your renewed surface looking brand new, you simply need to avoid abrasive cleaning powders and rough scrubbing pads. A soft sponge combined with mild dish soap or a gentle liquid cleaner is all it takes to maintain that brilliant shine. This simple care routine protects the protective finish so it stays bright and beautiful for a decade or more.
It is also smart to fix any leaky faucets quickly so that constant dripping does not wear down the coating prematurely. Taking these easy steps ensures your investment remains in pristine condition for a very long time. We always provide a detailed care sheet after we finish so you know exactly how to protect your new surface.
Now is the perfect time to stop ignoring that embarrassing eyesore in your bathroom and finally take action. You do not have to live with a stained, scratchy wash basin that makes your guests feel uncomfortable. Our friendly local team is ready to help you bring back that bright, clean feeling to your home.

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 Lake Shore, 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.
