A dull or chipped tub in Lewiston Orchards 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.
You can actually rescue your ugly, stained tub today without spending a fortune on messy remodeling. Our local team specializes in spraying a tough, shiny new protective barrier right over your existing cast iron or steel fixture. This smart alternative saves you thousands of dollars and avoids those massive, dusty drywall headaches entirely.
If you want to see how affordable this transformation is, we would love to give you a free estimate today. Since we work right here in your neighborhood, we can swing by your house whenever you have a free moment. Let us help you fall in love with your washroom all over again!
Most folks think that when a basin gets dull, scratchy, or stained, their only option is to rip it out. However, that old-school thinking ignores how modern chemical bonding agents can completely save your original setup. By applying a specialized liquid acrylic coating, we recreate that slick, factory-fresh porcelain feel right in your home. This process bonds at a molecular level, which means it will not peel off when you take a hot shower.
To make this happen, we first strip away all the old soap scum and body oils using industrial cleaners. After that step, we repair any deep chips or rust spots with a waterproof polyester filler. Once the surface is perfectly flat, we spray several coats of a high-tech finish that cures into a rock-hard shield. You get a gorgeous, glossy wash basin that looks like it just rolled off the showroom floor.
This method saves you a massive amount of time because we usually finish the entire project in just one afternoon. Contrast that with a traditional remodel, which often leaves your home looking like a chaotic construction zone for weeks. On top of that, you keep your heavy, high-quality original tub instead of replacing it with a cheap plastic unit.
| Project Factor | Complete Replacement | Our Special Resurfacing Process |
|---|---|---|
| Total Cost | Very expensive (usually thousands) | Highly affordable and budget-friendly |
| Time to Complete | One to two weeks of messy work | Finished in about four to six hours |
| Durability | Depends on the new cheap materials | Lasts for ten to fifteen years with care |
| Debris and Mess | Heavy drywall dust and broken tile | Virtually zero mess left behind |
Which means you get to bypass all the stress of hiring plumbers, drywallers, and tile setters. Instead, a single friendly technician handles the entire job from start to finish. This streamlined approach keeps your hard-earned money in your wallet where it belongs.
Consequently, you can put those savings toward other fun home improvement projects or a nice family vacation. We love seeing the shocked look on our clients' faces when they see the final result. It really is the ultimate shortcut to a beautiful, clean bathroom experience.
Because we operate in this beautiful corner of Nez Perce County, we understand the specific needs of local homeowners. Many homes in this region feature sturdy, classic construction that deserves to be preserved rather than destroyed. Our community, which is home to about 31,422 residents, has a rich history of hard work and keeping things in great shape. We take pride in helping our neighbors maintain their properties without breaking the bank.
Whether you live near the local high school or closer to the airport, we know our way around the area perfectly. We regularly service homes across the primary ZIP code of 83501, bringing top-tier equipment to every single job site. Since the median household income here sits around $60,000, we know that spending five grand on a new bathroom simply is not realistic for most families. That is why we focus on offering a high-value alternative that delivers premium results for a fraction of the cost.
Furthermore, we always treat your home with the utmost respect, just like we would treat our own grandmother's house. We set up heavy-duty exhaust fans to pull any paint fumes directly out of your window during the spraying process. This means your family can breathe easy while we do our thing in the bathroom.
Now, once your pristine finish is cured, you want to make sure it stays beautiful for a very long time. The secret lies in avoiding harsh, abrasive cleansers like powdered bleach scrubs or steel wool pads. Those scratchy products will micro-scratch the shiny acrylic, causing it to lose its luster over the years. Instead, you should use mild dish soaps or gentle foaming bathroom cleaners with a soft sponge.
This lets you wipe away dirt effortlessly because the new non-porous surface does not allow grime to stick. You will actually spend much less time scrubbing your bathroom on the weekends. Just a quick wipe down after your shower keeps the gloss looking incredibly sharp.
Additionally, we always recommend repairing any leaky faucets as soon as you notice them. Constant dripping in the exact same spot can eventually wear down even the toughest industrial coatings over time. Taking care of small plumbing issues early protects your investment and keeps your home running smoothly.
When you contact us for a complimentary estimate, we do not throw some random, inflated price at you over the phone. We prefer to actually look at your current setup to see exactly what needs to be done. Sometimes we find old DIY paint kits that need to be completely stripped off first, which requires a bit of extra prep work. We believe in total honesty, so we explain every step of our process before we ever start spraying.
During our visit, we will inspect the integrity of your current fixture to ensure it is a good candidate for our bonding system. If we find minor rust around the drain, we will explain how we treat it with specialized inhibitors to stop it from spreading. You get a clear, written plan with a fixed price, so there are absolutely no surprise fees later on.
This personal touch is why your neighbors trust us to handle their most delicate home improvement needs. We do not use pushy sales tactics or try to sign you up for things you do not actually need. Our goal is simply to give you a gorgeous, clean space that makes you feel relaxed every time you wash your hands.
Instead of staring at that ugly, outdated color or those stubborn rust stains for another day, let us fix it for you. Our proven restoration technique brings back the brightness and shine that your bathroom has been missing for years. You will save a ton of cash, avoid a mountain of dusty trash, and get your bathroom back in action in no time.

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 Lewiston Orchards, 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.
