A dull or chipped tub in Lumberton 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 stare at your cracked and stained basin every morning wishing for a total transformation? Getting a fresh, smooth finish on your tub is much easier and cheaper than buying a brand new one.
Perhaps you look at your old, yellowing basin and feel like it belongs in a museum. Most people assume that replacing a heavy cast iron or fiberglass unit requires tearing out half the room. That is simply not the case when you choose to revitalize the existing surface instead of tossing it away.
Actually, this process involves applying a durable, high-tech liquid polymer that bonds directly to the old material. By doing this, you avoid the massive mess and the stress of a full-scale demolition project. Plus, you keep the original shape that likely fits your space better than any modern replacement ever could.
Consider the fact that a complete bathroom remodel often costs thousands of dollars in labor and materials alone. When you opt for this specialized resurfacing treatment, you save a significant amount of your hard-earned money. That extra cash stays in your pocket for other home improvements or just a nice vacation with your family.
Furthermore, the actual work usually finishes in just a single day or two at most. You get to avoid weeks of having a construction crew tromping through your home and leaving dust everywhere. It provides a sense of ease knowing the project will be over before you even really have time to get annoyed by it.
Think about the environmental impact as well, because you are keeping heavy, non-recyclable materials out of the local landfill. This is a responsible choice for any homeowner who cares about the planet. It turns an old eyesore into a center of domestic tranquility without creating unnecessary waste.
While you might see DIY kits at the local hardware store, they rarely provide the same long-lasting finish as a pro. Those store-bought sprays often peel or chip within a few months, leaving you with an even bigger headache than you started with. A skilled hand ensures the surface is perfectly prepped and the coating is applied evenly.
Besides, the chemicals used in this process require proper ventilation and specialized protective gear to handle safely. A professional brings the right equipment to ensure the fumes are managed correctly and the result looks smooth as glass. You get a high-quality, factory-like shine that lasts for years instead of a patchy, amateur look.
Perhaps you are worried about the smell or the potential mess during the process. We take great care to mask off your walls, floors, and fixtures so that only the tub receives the new treatment. This keeps your home clean and protected while we work our magic on your fixtures.
First, we start by deep cleaning the entire surface to remove years of soap scum, lime buildup, and grime. This step is critical because the new layer needs a completely clean surface to bond properly. Without this thorough cleaning, the new finish would eventually bubble or flake off, which nobody wants.
Next, we use a specialized bonding agent that acts like a bridge between the old tub and the new coating. This stuff is incredibly strong and ensures that your new surface stays stuck tight for a very long time. You will notice the difference immediately when you touch the smooth, non-porous finish.
Finally, we apply several coats of the high-quality polymer to achieve that perfect, gleaming look you desire. We pay close attention to every corner and edge to make sure no spots are missed. Once it cures, your tub will feel brand new and offer a level of serenity you haven't enjoyed in years.
After we finish the job, you will want to keep that surface looking beautiful for as long as possible. Using gentle, non-abrasive cleaners is the best way to ensure the shine stays bright and the surface remains tough. You should avoid harsh chemicals or scrub brushes that could scratch the new material over time.
Fortunately, the non-porous nature of the new finish means that dirt and grime do not stick as easily as they did before. A simple rinse with water and a mild soap after each use usually does the trick. It makes your daily cleaning routine much faster and gives you more time to relax.
On top of that, you can always call us if you have any questions about how to care for your revitalized fixtures. We want you to be happy with the results for a long time. Our goal is to provide a service that makes your life easier and your bathroom more enjoyable.

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 Lumberton, 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.

The technician who picks up when you call works these streets, so the ledger below is home turf rather than trivia.
Somewhere under that worn surface is the tub you chose. One day brings it back.
