A dull or chipped tub in Marietta 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 tub probably looks like a horror movie prop right now with those ugly stains and tiny cracks that catch every bit of dirt. Fortunately, you do not have to spend thousands of dollars on a loud, dusty remodeling project that leaves your home looking like a construction zone for weeks. Instead, you can choose a smart, fast process that applies a shiny, durable new coating right over your existing fixture.
By opting for this modern surface restoration, you save serious cash while getting a finish that looks brand new. This budget-friendly solution keeps your original heavy-duty tub in place, which means you avoid the nightmare of tearing down walls just to squeeze a cheap plastic replacement through the bathroom doorway. Our local team comes straight to your home in Whatcom County to handle the entire process from start to finish, leaving you with a sparkling surface that you can actually enjoy again.
To make this deal even sweeter, we want to help you plan your project without any financial pressure. That is why we offer a completely free estimate where we look at your current setup and explain exactly how we can bring it back to life. You get all the facts and pricing upfront, so you can make the best decision for your home without any sneaky surprises or high-pressure sales tactics.
You might wonder how we actually turn a dull, scratched piece of porcelain or fiberglass into a glossy masterpiece in just a single day. First, we carefully clean the old fixture with special agents to remove decades of soap scum, body oils, and hard water deposits. This critical step ensures that the new chemical bonds perfectly to the original material without any peeling later.
After prepping the area, we repair any deep gouges, chips, or rust spots using high-performance fillers that blend seamlessly into the structure. Next, we apply a proprietary bonding agent that acts like superglue at a microscopic level, creating an unbreakable link between the old tub and the new finish. Finally, our technicians spray several layers of a high-tech acrylic coating that cures into a rock-hard, glossy shield.
This process requires serious skill and specialized ventilation equipment to keep your indoor air clean and safe while we work. Which means that trying a cheap DIY kit from a big-box store usually ends in a peeling, streaky disaster that you will have to pay a professional to scrape off later. Our team brings years of hands-on experience, the right tools, and professional-grade materials to ensure the job gets done right the first time.
Choosing to renew your tub surface offers a massive list of advantages that go way beyond just saving a bunch of money. For starters, the entire process takes only a few hours, meaning you can use your bathroom again in just a day or two. This speed is a lifesaver if you only have one bathroom in your house and cannot afford to live without a shower for a week.
On top of that, the non-porous nature of our premium finishes makes cleaning an absolute breeze. You can throw away those harsh abrasive cleaners and painful scrubbing brushes because a simple wipe with mild soap will keep the surface gleaming. This easier maintenance routine saves you time and protects your back from those long hours spent bending over the edge of the tub.
To help you compare your options, we put together a quick breakdown of how this smart restoration method matches up against a traditional bathroom tear-out:
| Factor to Consider | Our Restoration Method | Full Tub Replacement |
|---|---|---|
| Average Project Cost | Extremely affordable, saves up to 75% | Very high, often requires plumbing upgrades |
| Total Project Time | Completed in 4 to 8 hours | Can take 3 to 7 days of messy work |
| Demolition Required | None, keeps walls and tiles intact | Messy drywall tear-out and tile damage |
| Surface Durability | Lasts for 10-15 years with basic care | Depends on the quality of the new tub purchased |

Once our team finishes applying the gorgeous new coating, a little bit of proper care will keep it looking brand new for up to fifteen years. First, you must avoid using abrasive scrubbing powders, bleach, or rough scouring pads that can scratch the glossy finish over time. Instead, stick to gentle liquid cleaners or even simple dish soap with a soft microfiber cloth to wipe away any water spots.
Another great tip is to fix any leaky faucets immediately because constant dripping can wear down even the toughest finishes over several years. Also, avoid leaving wet washcloths, heavy bottles of shampoo, or bath mats with suction cups sitting on the bottom of the tub for long periods. These simple habits prevent moisture from getting trapped, which protects the bond and ensures your tub remains a highlight of your home.

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 Marietta, 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.
