A dull or chipped tub in Lewiston 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 feel like your old, chipped bathing basin ruins the whole vibe of your bathroom? You can easily fix that ugly eyesore without tearing out your walls or spending a small fortune on a full remodel.
Imagine walking into a bathroom where that stained, yellowing tub looks brand new again. This process brings back the shine and creates a smooth finish that makes scrubbing dirt away so much easier.
Basically, this work involves stripping away old grime and applying a high-quality resin coating to give your fixture a fresh start. You get a durable, glossy surface that resists wear and tear for years.
Because this method relies on specialized spray equipment, you avoid the messy demolition that usually comes with installing a brand new unit. It turns a tired, outdated room into a place of true relaxation and visual appeal.
Since living in a small place like Lewiston means you value your hard-earned money, keeping costs low is a massive win. You save thousands compared to buying a replacement basin and paying for all that extra labor.
Additionally, you avoid the weeks of construction dust that usually settle in every single corner of your home. This approach respects your busy schedule while delivering a result that looks like it cost a whole lot more.
| Benefit | How it saves you | |
|---|---|---|
| Faster turnaround | No long wait times for plumbing | |
| Lower price tag | Keeps your wallet happy | |
| Eco-friendly | Reduces landfill waste |
Living within the borders of this Wisconsin town means you appreciate a quiet life with a population of about 1,187 friendly neighbors. We take pride in our homes and want them to feel like a slice of heaven.
Even if your household income sits at a modest level, you still deserve a space that feels fresh and clean. Whether you are located in a standard ZIP code here or nearby, the local aesthetic matters just as much to us as it does to you.
Perhaps you have noticed those stubborn scratches that never seem to go away no matter how hard you scrub. By sealing those pores, you ensure that mold and bacteria have nowhere left to hide.
Furthermore, a slick new surface means you spend less time cleaning and more time enjoying a nice, warm soak. This creates an atmosphere of pure ease that enhances your daily routine significantly.
Usually, people worry that a sprayed-on finish will just peel off after a few months of heavy use. Fortunately, our preparation methods ensure the material bonds tightly to the existing structure.
Consequently, you end up with a hard, chemical-resistant layer that handles soaps and shampoos without breaking a sweat. It provides a level of quality that stands up to the test of time and moisture.
Before we arrive, you just need to clear out your personal items like shampoos, soaps, and loofahs from the area. This lets us focus entirely on prepping the surface to ensure the best possible adhesion for the new finish.
Moving your shower curtain and any rugs helps us keep your floor safe from stray materials. Because we use industrial ventilation, you should also plan to keep the bathroom window open if the layout allows.
First, we carefully remove any old caulk to reach the edges where leaks often hide. Next, we clean the basin thoroughly to strip away years of mineral deposits and soap scum buildup.
Following that, we apply a bonding agent that acts like superglue for our proprietary resin coating. Finally, we spray on the finish, which cures quickly to reveal a hard, brilliant surface that glows under your lights.
If you decided to rip out your old unit, you would face plumbing fees, tile work, and disposal costs that stack up fast. That gives you a firm number to plan around, with nothing owed until you approve.
On the contrary, this specialized service streamlines the entire operation into a single visit. You keep your existing plumbing, which means you avoid the risk of hidden leaks or pipe damage deep inside your walls.
While bright white remains the most popular choice, you might prefer an off-white or even a soft cream to match your walls. This flexibility lets you design the space exactly how you want it to look.
Since your bathroom is your personal sanctuary, the look of the tub dictates the mood of the entire room. You will be surprised at how much bigger and brighter a small space feels once the basin reflects light properly.
After the work is done, you should avoid using harsh abrasive cleaners that could scratch the new surface. Simply use a soft sponge and a mild liquid cleaner to keep things looking pristine for many years.
Refraining from using heavy bleach or steel wool ensures that the resin stays smooth and beautiful. When you take care of your updated fixture, it pays you back by staying easy to maintain every single day.

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, 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.
