A dull or chipped tub in Lithonia 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 hate looking at that stained tub every morning? This service brings your worn fixture back to life without a messy remodel.
Now, finding local help can feel super frustrating when your home needs some TLC. Fortunately, trusted hands in DeKalb County handle this dirty work every single week. That means you get gorgeous results right in your own bathroom without breaking a sweat.
Hard water stains build up and ruin the smooth finish of your basin. This lets minerals eat away at the protective topcoat of your tub. Because of this issue, the surface turns dull and rough to the touch.
Harsh chemical cleaners also strip away the factory shine of porcelain. Consequently, dirt sticks deep into the porous material and refuses to wash away. You end up scrubbing for hours with zero luck.
Calcium and lime deposits create an ugly haze across your tub floor. Naturally, you grab your strongest bleach cleaner to tackle the mess. This approach only damages the protective layer even more over time.
Instead of fighting a losing battle, you can upgrade your routine. This lets you save precious weekend hours for things you actually enjoy doing.
Tiny hairline fractures trap dirty bathwater underneath the top layer. As a result, mold and mildew start growing where you cannot see them. That triggers nasty odors in your entire bathroom space.
Fixing these small structural flaws stops bigger leaks from ruining your subfloor. Which means you avoid paying thousands for emergency plumbing repairs later on.
Our skilled local contractors arrive right at your doorstep with professional gear. They strip away years of grime using specialized industrial etching agents. This prepares the bare surface for a fresh bonding agent.
Next comes a multi-layered application of high-grade acrylic polyurethane coating. Such advanced chemistry creates a brilliant finish that rivals brand-new fixtures. You receive a durable shield that stands up to daily family chaos.
| Project Phase | What We Do | Your Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| Preparation | Deep clean and etch | Removes all hidden bacteria |
| Repair | Fill chips and cracks | Stops hidden leaks |
| Coating | Spray acrylic finish | Gives you luxury shine |
Following the spray process, the new layer cures to a hard rock-solid state. This gives you a gorgeous sanctuary where you can relax in total peace. On top of that, the whole room looks instantly updated.
Pulling out a heavy iron tub destroys your bathroom tile and walls. However, choosing our local surface upgrade leaves your existing layout completely untouched. This means zero structural demolition headaches for your household.
Buying a replacement unit costs a small fortune once plumbing fees are added. Conversely, our localized service fits neatly inside modest budgets across zip codes 30038 and 30058. That leaves extra cash in your bank account for other home upgrades.
Homeownership in this specific southern locale comes with unique financial balancing acts. With a median household income hovering around thirty-six thousand dollars, every penny counts. Therefore, spending smart on cosmetic updates makes total financial sense.
Why waste hard-earned cash on a full bathroom gut job? This clever service stretches your renovation dollars much further than you imagined possible.
Older homes feature deep cast-iron tubs that modern manufacturers simply do not build anymore. Preserving that vintage charm adds serious character and authenticity to your property. That keeps your historic aesthetic completely intact.
Replacing those sturdy old basins is almost impossible without major structural demolition. Fortunately, restoring the original shell honors the history of your home while giving you modern performance.
We start by ventilating your bathroom space to keep the air fresh. Then we mask off your surrounding walls and floors with protective plastic sheets. This shields your property from any accidental overspray.
Our technicians apply a proprietary bonding agent to the prepped surface. This guarantees the new finish will not peel or bubble over the years. You get peace of mind knowing the job is done right.
Working with professional-grade resins requires strict adherence to safety protocols. Our crew wears specialized breathing gear while applying the chemical coatings. Meanwhile, your family stays safe outside the work zone.
Proper ventilation fans pull all lingering fumes right out of your window. This lets you re-enter a fresh-smelling bathroom very shortly after we finish.
The fresh acrylic coating needs about twenty-four to forty-eight hours to cure fully. During this window, you must keep all water away from the tub. Adhering to this rule ensures maximum hardness.
Once fully cured, you clean the surface using mild dish soap and water. Avoid abrasive scouring pads to keep that mirror-like shine glowing for years.
Serving a cozy town with a population of just over two thousand requires honesty. We treat every single client like a close neighbor rather than a number. That builds deep trust throughout our entire service area.
Our local team lives right here in DeKalb County and understands regional housing needs. We show up on time and respect your living space from start to finish.
Hiring a hometown contractor keeps money circulating right inside your local economy. Big national chains do not care about your specific neighborhood needs. Instead, you get personalized attention from people who care about their reputation.
Word of mouth drives our local business forward every single day. Because of this, we always deliver top-tier results that make you proud to recommend us.
Store-bought DIY kits often peel and flake within just a few months. That happens because amateur sprayers lack the industrial bonding primers we use. You end up spending more money to fix the failed DIY mess.
Leave the heavy chemistry to professionals who train for years on these exact surfaces. This guarantees a factory-grade finish that resists chipping under normal daily use.

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 Lithonia, 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.
