A dull or chipped tub in Mount Vernon 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.
Maybe you look at your bathroom every single morning and just sigh at those ugly, outdated colors from decades ago. Right now, you might feel stuck choosing between living with a stained tub or spending thousands of dollars on a messy demolition. Fortunately, a highly practical alternative exists that completely restores your bathing area to a brilliant shine in just a single day.
By choosing this smart option, you skip the massive headache of hiring plumbers and tearing down walls. This fast process saves you a mountain of cash while delivering a gorgeous, glossy finish that looks identical to a brand new installation. Our team loves helping homeowners solve this exact problem with zero stress and total honesty.
We are ready to visit your home and give you a detailed, free estimate for your project. To help you understand how this works, we should look at why this clever update makes so much sense for your property.
First of all, let us clarify what this specialized service actually involves. Instead of ripping out your heavy cast iron or fiberglass fixture, we apply a high-performance liquid acrylic coating directly over the existing structure. This means we chemically bond a fresh, durable skin onto your worn-out surface to seal up old stains, scratches, and chips.
To make sure the new finish lasts for many years, we perform a deep cleaning process using industrial prep agents. After removing every trace of soap scum and mineral deposits, we repair any deep cracks or rust spots. Finally, our spray technician applies a specialized primer followed by multiple topcoats of a glossy, durable finish.
This method works incredibly well on various household materials, which we have listed in the table below to show you the versatility of our service:
| Material Type | Common Problems We Fix | The Finished Result |
|---|---|---|
| Cast Iron | Rust spots, dull enamel, dark stains | Ultra-glossy porcelain look |
| Fiberglass & Acrylic | Hairline cracks, yellowing, flexing bottoms | Reinforced structure, bright white color |
| Pressed Steel | Chipping around the drain, noisy vibrations | Smooth, quiet, rust-resistant barrier |
Naturally, you might wonder if buying a cheap new unit at the local hardware store is a better path. However, the hidden costs of a traditional remodel will quickly blow your budget out of the water. Once you factor in the cost of a licensed plumber, drywall repairs, and garbage disposal fees, your small project turns into a financial nightmare.
When you choose our specialized recoating service, you avoid all of those annoying extra expenses completely. Because we do not touch your existing plumbing lines, you do not have to worry about leaks behind your walls. Consequently, you get to keep your beautiful original fixture while enjoying a modern, clean look that feels brand new.
Another major benefit is the incredible speed of our application process. While a full remodel can leave your home dusty and unusable for weeks, our crew finishes the entire job in just a few hours. This means you can get back to your normal daily routine almost immediately without any major disruptions to your family life.
Living in a charming southern town means appreciating the history of our homes while keeping them comfortable and functional. This peaceful area, situated in Montgomery County with a cozy population of 2,519 residents, features many historic properties that deserve careful preservation. We love serving our neighbors across the local area, including the 30445 ZIP code, where median household incomes sit around $31,667 annually.
Because budget-friendly home improvements are so important around here, we focus on delivering maximum value for every dollar you spend. Our cost-effective restoration services allow you to upgrade your home without draining your savings account. Plus, keeping old fixtures out of our local Georgia landfills helps protect our beautiful natural environment for future generations.
We treat every home we visit with the utmost respect, working cleanly and safely. Our local technicians understand the specific water conditions and humidity levels in the region, ensuring we apply a coating that stands up to local conditions. We take great pride in helping our community thrive, one beautiful home renovation at a time.
Once we pack up our tools and leave your bathroom looking sparkling clean, you will want to keep it that way. Fortunately, taking care of your shiny new surface is incredibly simple and requires very little effort. You just need to avoid abrasive scrubbing powders and harsh bleach products that can dull the protective topcoat over time.
Instead, we recommend using mild dish soap or gentle liquid cleaners along with a soft microfiber cloth. This simple routine keeps the surface incredibly smooth, which naturally repels dirt and prevents soap scum from building up. By following these basic guidelines, you can easily enjoy your beautiful, shiny wash space for a decade or more.
Additionally, we suggest fixing any dripping faucets quickly to prevent standing water from wearing down the finish prematurely. If you take care of these minor details, your restored area will maintain its impressive shine and pristine color. We always explain these care tips in person so you feel completely confident in keeping your investment looking great.
Now that you know how easy and affordable this transformation can be, there is no reason to live with an ugly bathroom anymore. Our friendly team is ready to answer all your questions and help you plan your upcoming cosmetic upgrade. We provide completely free, no-obligation quotes so you can make the absolute best decision for your home and budget.
To get started, simply reach out to us and describe the current condition of your bathing area. We will walk you through the various color options and schedule a convenient time to inspect the project in person. Let us help you bring back the pride and relaxation you deserve when stepping into your bathroom every day!
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 Mount Vernon, 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.
