A dull or chipped tub in Lineville 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.
Your old bathroom centerpiece probably looks pretty tired right now. Every time you step in there to wash up, those ugly stains and tiny scratches stare right back at you. Luckily, you do not have to spend a fortune on a full remodel when a professional local resurfacing specialist can make that worn-out surface look brand new again.
Instead of ripping out the entire unit, this smart process applies a fresh, durable liquid coating directly over your existing basin. That means you save thousands of dollars and avoid weeks of messy construction dust. Our team visits your home to restore that bright, smooth shine in just a single afternoon.
We believe in making things easy for our neighbors, which is why we offer a free estimate with zero obligations. You get to find out exactly what it takes to bring back that glossy look without spending a dime upfront. Let us help you fall in love with your washroom all over again.
Replacing a heavy cast iron or acrylic basin is a total nightmare. First, the old unit has to be smashed or hauled out, which often ruins your bathroom tiles and floorboards. Then, you have to pay a plumber to hook up the new drain, which quickly drains your wallet.
Opting for a professional recoating service saves you from all that unwanted stress. This method uses high-tech bonding agents to fuse a new protective layer right over the old porcelain or fiberglass. The finished result looks identical to a brand new fixture but costs only a fraction of the price.
Moreover, the entire job wraps up in less than twenty-four hours. You can go to work in the morning and come back to a sparkling basin that looks like it just came from the showroom. It is truly the ultimate home improvement shortcut for busy homeowners.
Think about all the hidden costs of a traditional bathroom demolition. You have to buy the new fixture, pay for disposal fees, buy new surround tiles, and hire expensive contractors. When you choose to refinish instead, you keep your hard-earned money in your pocket.
To help you compare the paths, we put together a simple breakdown of what to expect:
| Project Detail | Full Replacement Path | Our Restoration Method |
|---|---|---|
| Average Cost | Very High ($3,000 - $6,000) | Very Low and Affordable |
| Time Required | 3 to 7 Days of Chaos | Around 4 to 6 Hours |
| Mess Factor | Dust, Noise, Broken Tile | Virtually None |
This comparison clearly shows how much hassle you avoid by choosing the smart route. Why deal with plumbers and drywall dust when you can get the same beautiful shine with a simple surface renewal? We make the choice easy for your budget and your sanity.
First, we clean the entire area with specialized industrial cleaners to strip away decades of soap scum, body oils, and mineral deposits. This deep preparation ensures the new coating sticks perfectly to the original substrate. Without this crucial step, the new finish would just peel off in a matter of weeks.
Next, we repair any chips, deep scratches, or rust spots using a waterproof polyester filler. Once those spots are sanded flat, we mask off your walls, floor, and fixtures to protect them from any overspray. Then, we apply a proprietary bonding agent that acts like chemical velcro between the old surface and the new topcoat.
Finally, we spray multiple layers of a high-gloss acrylic urethane coating using specialized ventilation equipment. This premium material cures into an incredibly hard, glossy shell that resists impacts and household cleaners. You get a gorgeous, easy-to-clean surface that feels incredibly smooth to the touch.
Cheap DIY kits from the local hardware store use weak epoxy paints that turn yellow and flake off very quickly. In contrast, our professional-grade coatings are designed specifically for hot water exposure and daily scrubbing. We invest in top-tier materials so your restored basin stays bright and beautiful for many years down the road.
Additionally, our spraying equipment achieves a factory-smooth finish that brushes and rollers simply cannot replicate. You will not see any brush strokes, drip marks, or uneven patches when our skilled technicians finish the job. It takes real hands-on experience to lay down these coatings perfectly, and we take pride in our flawless execution.

Caring for your renewed basin is actually much easier than scrubbing an old, porous one. Because the new non-porous coating seals out dirt and grime, you do not need to use harsh abrasive powders or bleach anymore. In fact, using abrasive scrubs will actually dull the beautiful shine over time.
Instead, we recommend using mild liquid dish soaps or gentle foaming bathroom cleaners along with a soft sponge. Just a quick wipe down after your bath keeps the surface looking brand new with almost zero effort. This simple routine saves you both time and energy during your weekly house cleaning chore.
Also, make sure you fix any leaky faucets promptly because dripping water can eventually wear down even the toughest finishes. By keeping your plumbing in good shape, you ensure your restored basin remains a bright highlight of your home for a decade or more. A little bit of basic care goes a long way in protecting your investment.

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 Lineville, 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.
