A dull or chipped tub in Mayesville 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.
Decades of scrubbin have worn away that shiny top layer and left you with a dull dingy mess.
Fortunately you can completely transform that eyesore without ripping out your walls or spending your life savings.
Most folks think they need to buy a whole new setup when things get ugly.
That messy process can take days and leaves you with a mountain of dusty plaster.
Choosing to refinish the surface instead saves you tons of cash and gets your washroom back in action fast.
Our skilled local crew comes right to your doorstep to handle everything on site.
We apply a high tech liquid acrylic coating that bonds directly to your existing fixture.
This process gives you a sparkling clean finish that looks brand new for a fraction of the replacement cost.
Maybe you are worried about those nasty chips or rust spots near the drain.
Well we patch all those little imperfections up before we even open our spray guns.
This means you get a perfectly smooth surface that feels amazing when you take a long soak.
First we clean the entire area with special industrial strength prep solutions to strip away soap scum.
Any leftover oils or minerals will ruin the bond so we are super picky about this step.
Which means we spend most of our time getting the old porcelain squeaky clean.
Next we apply a specialized bonding agent that acts like a microscopic chemical anchor.
This clever liquid glue ensures the new glossy topcoat sticks forever without peeling up later.
After that we spray several layers of premium acrylic urethane to create a thick durable shield.
You might wonder if this smelly process will stink up your whole family home.
Actually we bring powerful exhaust fans to vent all those strong fumes right out the nearest window.
So you can relax in the next room while we do all the hard work.
Once we finish spraying you only have to wait about twenty four hours before your first shower.
That quick turnaround is way better than waiting weeks for plumbers to finish a noisy demolition job.
Plus you avoid the risk of discovering hidden water damage behind your tile walls.

Living in a cozy historic area means dealing with unique plumbing setups that are tricky to replace.
For instance many houses around the 29104 zip code area have gorgeous heavy cast iron basins.
Tearing those beauties out of a tight space is a total nightmare that can ruin your vintage character.
By choosing our specialized local service you preserve the original charm of your historic home.
We love helping neighbors in Sumter County keep their classic fixtures looking fresh and bright.
It is our way of keeping local history alive while making your daily life much more comfortable.
Let us look at some cool facts about our lovely community of Mayesville, South Carolina.
With a small population of about 523 residents every single home renovation project we do feels personal.
We know our local median household income sits around $41,750 so we always keep our prices highly affordable.
Our budget friendly service fits perfectly into any household budget without sacrificing top quality results.
We believe everyone deserves a beautiful space to wash away the dirt of a long hard day.
That is why we offer a completely free estimate to help you plan your home improvements with zero stress.
You have probably seen those cheap roll on epoxy kits at the local hardware store.
They promise a quick fix for under fifty bucks but the reality is usually a streaky disaster.
Those retail paints brush on thick and often start peeling off within a few short months.
Without professional ventilation equipment you will end up inhaling some pretty nasty chemical vapors.
On top of that those store bought kits do not include the professional acid prep solutions we use.
This causes the new paint to bubble up the very first time you fill the tub with hot water.
Our heavy duty commercial coatings require precise temperature control and specialized spray tools to cure right.
We wear full safety gear and use professional respirators to ensure a flawless and safe application.
So you get a factory smooth glaze instead of a bumpy brush stroke mess that you will regret.
Investing in a professional restoration job saves you from buying a cheap kit and doing the work twice.
We stand behind our craftsmanship and ensure your new finish stays beautiful for many years.
You can finally stop hiding your bathroom behind a thick plastic shower curtain when guests visit.
Now that your fixture looks pristine you want to keep it that way without scratching the shine.
You must avoid abrasive powder cleansers and harsh bleach sprays because they will scratch the acrylic.
Instead you should use mild dish soap or a gentle liquid cleaner with a soft microfiber cloth.
This simple cleaning routine keeps the non porous surface shiny and prevents mold from taking root.
Because the new glaze is incredibly smooth dirt and grime just slide right down the drain.
Which means you spend less time scrubbing on your hands and knees every single weekend.
Another smart tip is to fix any leaky faucets as soon as you notice them dripping.
Constant water drops over several months can eventually wear a groove into even the toughest new finish.
Taking care of small leaks protects your investment and keeps your utility bills nice and low too.
We also suggest avoiding those rubber bath mats with suction cups underneath them.
Those little cups trap water underneath and can slowly pull at the newly bonded glaze over time.
We can actually apply a permanent slip resistant texture to the bottom of your tub during our process.
If you are ready to say goodbye to that ugly yellowed basin we are here to help.
Our friendly local technicians are ready to visit your home and inspect your current setup.
We will answer all your questions and give you a detailed price quote without any hidden fees.
You do not have to live with a stained and embarrassing bathroom for another single day.
Let us restore the bright clean shine that makes your morning routine feel like a luxury retreat.

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 Mayesville, 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.
