Many homeowners confuse this specialized coating method with cheap DIY paint kits that peel off after a few hot showers. Actually, our professional-grade process involves a deep chemical clean, a molecular bonding agent, and several layers of durable acrylic topcoat. This advanced technique fuses the new finish directly to your cast iron or steel fixture, which creates a thick, glossy barrier that looks identical to brand new porcelain.
Since we use high-tech ventilation systems during the spray application, you do not have to worry about strong fumes lingering around your hallways. Which means your family can stay relaxed in your home while our technician works their magic behind closed doors. On top of that, the entire application takes under five hours to complete from start to finish.
To help you compare your options, we put together a simple breakdown of how our refinishing method stacks up against traditional replacement:
| Restoration Factor | Professional Resurfacing | Full Replacement |
|---|---|---|
| Average Project Cost | Highly affordable and budget-friendly | Extremely expensive with hidden fees |
| Total Time Required | Completed in less than one day | Several days of loud construction |
| Mess and Demolition | Virtually zero mess or dust | Tons of broken tiles and drywall debris |
| Expected Lifespan | Up to ten to fifteen years with proper care | Decades, but with huge upfront hassle |
This handy comparison proves that restoring your existing setup is the most logical choice for smart homeowners. Furthermore, our specialized coatings are designed to withstand daily use, hot water, and standard bathroom cleaners for years to come. You simply cannot find a faster way to boost your home value while keeping your hard-earned money in your bank account.
We love serving our neighbors throughout this beautiful, historic region of Upstate New York near the southern shore of Lake Ontario. Living in a tight-knit community of about 6,200 residents means that word of mouth is everything, so we treat every single home with the utmost respect. Whether your property is located near the Erie Canal or tucked away in the quieter rural areas, we arrive on time and ready to work.
Since the local median household income sits around $61,000, we know that every dollar you spend on home improvements needs to count. This is why we focus on delivering top-tier craftsmanship that fits comfortably within your family budget. Our services are easily accessible across the entire town, including all residences within the local 14470 and 14508 zip codes.
Because we live and work in this exact same area, we understand the specific challenges of local hard water on porcelain and fiberglass surfaces. This mineral-heavy water can cause nasty orange rust stains and tough calcium buildup that ruins your glossy finish over time. Fortunately, our premium bonding agents are formulated to resist these stubborn minerals, making your weekly cleaning chores a total breeze.
First, our skilled technician carefully masks off your entire bathroom with protective paper and plastic sheets to shield your vanity, toilet, and floors. This thorough preparation prevents any overspray from landing on your precious fixtures and keeps your home perfectly clean. Next, we remove all the old caulk and use a specialized acid paste to etch the old porcelain surface.
This etching step is absolutely crucial because it creates thousands of microscopic pores that allow our primer to grab hold of the old material. However, many cheap contractors skip this step to save time, which inevitably leads to bubbling and peeling down the road. We never cut corners because we want your beautiful new finish to stand the test of time.
After repairing any deep chips, rust spots, or cracks, we apply our signature bonding agent followed by multiple coats of high-gloss acrylic urethane. This state-of-the-art material cures into a rock-hard shell that feels incredibly smooth to the touch, offering a high level of coziness during your evening baths. Once we finish the spray application, we lay down a fresh bead of mildew-resistant silicone caulk around the edges to complete the look.
To keep your glossy surface looking brand new, you must avoid abrasive scrubbing powders and harsh bleach-based cleaners. These rough chemicals will slowly dull the shiny topcoat and eventually wear down the protective barrier. Instead, we highly recommend using mild dish soap, warm water, and a soft microfiber cloth to wipe away soap scum.
Another great tip is to avoid leaving wet washcloths or dripping shampoo bottles sitting directly on the newly coated surface. This pooled water can eventually weaken the bond over several years and lead to premature wear. By practicing these simple maintenance habits, you can easily keep your washroom looking like a luxury hotel suite for a very long time.
If you ever notice a small chip from dropping a heavy tool or metal object, do not panic. We can easily patch up minor accidents without having to spray the entire fixture all over again. Our customer service team is always here to help you protect your investment and answer any questions you might have.

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 Murray, 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.
