A dull or chipped tub in New Brighton 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.
Are you tired of looking at that stained, chipped, or outdated soaking basin in your bathroom? You can easily transform your space into a place of pure ease and style by calling us for a free estimate today.
Maybe you think ripping out that heavy, old iron tub is the only way to modernize your washroom. However, demolition creates a massive mess and costs a fortune in labor, plumbing fees, and new materials. This realization helps you save thousands of dollars while keeping your home structural integrity intact.
Furthermore, these vintage units are often built much tougher than modern plastic versions you find at big hardware stores. By choosing to resurface the existing material, you maintain that original quality while giving it a fresh, shiny look. This process provides a brand new surface that feels smooth and looks like it just came from a high-end showroom.
Because this city in Ramsey County has plenty of older homes, many residents deal with worn-out surfaces that trap dirt and bacteria. Instead of dealing with scrub brushes that never seem to get the job done, our method seals the pores of the old enamel. This means you spend way less time scrubbing and much more time enjoying your peaceful soaking sessions.
First, we carefully prepare the surface by cleaning it with specialized chemicals to strip away years of grime, soap scum, and mineral deposits. Then, we repair any cracks or chips using a strong bonding agent that fills in the damage perfectly. This meticulous preparation phase ensures the final finish adheres tightly to the tub, preventing peeling later on.
Next, we apply a high-performance, industrial-grade coating that bonds to your existing fixture at a molecular level. This layer creates a durable, non-porous shield that resists stains and mold, which makes cleaning incredibly easy for you. You get a finish that sparkles and provides the sense of luxury you have always wanted for your private retreat.
On top of that, we utilize advanced ventilation equipment to keep your air clean while we work inside your residence. We know you value your home, so we use protective masking to ensure no overspray touches your tiles or floor. This attention to detail lets you walk back into your bathroom with a total sense of satisfaction immediately after the curing time finishes.
| Feature | Benefit for You | |
|---|---|---|
| Industrial-grade resin coating | Long-lasting shine and stain resistance | |
| Deep cleaning process | Removes deep-seated bacteria and mold | |
| Efficient labor methods | Saves you significant time and money | |
| Custom color options | Perfect match for your bathroom decor |

We bring our tools directly to your front door, saving you the hassle of coordinating with multiple contractors or store delivery services. This direct service allows you to get an honest, free assessment of your needs right in your own bathroom.
Moreover, if your fixture has lost its original glow or feels rough to the touch, you are actually losing that sense of relaxation you seek. A resurfaced tub provides a gleaming white finish that reflects light, making even small bathrooms feel larger and much brighter. You can finally show off your updated room to guests without feeling embarrassed about old, yellowing surfaces.
Many people ask if this process creates a strong odor that lingers for days inside the house. Because we use specialized exhaust systems and high-quality materials, the smell dissipates very quickly after we finish the application. This speed lets you get back to your normal routine without having to stay elsewhere while the coating sets.
Another frequent question concerns how long this new finish will actually last under daily usage conditions. If you follow basic care instructions like using mild, non-abrasive cleaners, your refreshed fixture can look fantastic for over a decade. This longevity makes it one of the smartest investments you can make for your household.
Finally, you might wonder if this works on older, colored tubs that were popular decades ago. We can transform those outdated pink, blue, or avocado green fixtures into a clean, modern white or almond tone. This change instantly updates the entire look of your bathroom without you having to replace any other fixtures or tiles.
Now is the perfect moment to stop ignoring those eyesores and start planning your affordable bathroom update.

Our professional approach uses specialized primers and high-heat curing methods that DIY kits simply cannot replicate. This professional touch gives you a hard, glossy, and durable surface that stands up to daily showers, baths, and scrubbing.

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 New Brighton, 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.
