A dull or chipped tub in New Haven 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.
Do you look at your scarred wash basin and feel totally depressed? Well this local service fixes old fixtures so they shine bright again.
Most folks living in Nelson County think replacement is the only way out. Fortunately our crew rescues your worn tub right on site without tearing apart your walls.
That means you save thousands of hard earned dollars on messy remodeling projects. Meanwhile our local team brings back that gorgeous glossy finish you miss so much.
Tearing out a heavy cast iron basin requires sledgehammers and strong muscles. Consequently you end up paying for expensive plumbing work and structural repairs.
Furthermore those new tubs rarely match the thick quality of older porcelain models. Instead you get cheap acrylic that flexes under your feet when you step inside.
By comparison our specialized spraying technique treats your current basin right where it sits. This lets you avoid weeks of construction dust and chaotic bathroom demolition.
First we scrub away years of soap scum and stubborn mineral buildup using industrial cleaners. Next our techs etch the surface so the new coating actually sticks permanently.
Afterwards we spray multiple layers of high grade acrylic resin across the entire basin. Which means your stained container transforms into a pristine white masterpiece overnight.
Best of all you can use your newly coated plumbing fixture within just forty eight hours. This prevents any major disruption to your busy daily routine.
Old pitted porcelain traps dirt and breeds nasty mold right under your nose. However our smooth chemical barrier stops bacteria from finding a home in tiny cracks.
Scrubbing a stained tub until your arms hurt gets old really fast. Fortunately our slick nonporous shield lets you wipe away grime using just a damp sponge.
On top of that our fresh finish brightens up dark cramped bathrooms instantly. You will love walking into such a clean and inviting space every single morning.
| Traditional Replacement | Our Resurfacing Method |
|---|---|
| Costs thousands of dollars | Saves you up to seventy percent |
| Takes weeks of messy construction | Finishes in just one single day |
| Destroys bathroom tiles and walls | Leaves your surrounding tile untouched |
Many historic properties scattered around ZIP code 40051 feature gorgeous vintage bathroom fixtures. Naturally you want to preserve that original character rather than tossing it in a landfill.
With a median household income hovering around thirty nine thousand dollars splashing cash on heavy remodeling hurts. Therefore our affordable coating service makes total financial sense for local homeowners.
Even though our town has a small population of six hundred nine folks deserve top tier home improvements. That is why we bring big city quality directly to your doorstep without charging travel fees.
Proper ventilation is totally crucial when working with strong bonding agents inside a small room. Therefore we set up heavy exhaust fans to push out all fumes safely.
Then we tape off your surrounding walls and floors so stray droplets never cause any damage. This meticulous masking step guarantees a clean workspace from start to finish.
Finally we inspect every square inch for deep chips that need specialized filler. Such attention to detail ensures your final result looks completely flawless.
Many homeowners grab harsh abrasive scouring powders hoping to blast away stubborn stains in seconds. Unfortunately those gritty cleaners scratch the protective glaze and ruin the shine forever.
Instead you should stick to mild dish soap and warm water for everyday maintenance routines. This simple habit keeps your newly sprayed finish looking brand new for many years.
Another big mistake involves letting leaky faucets drip constantly onto the freshly treated basin floor. Over time those mineral heavy drops eat through even the toughest industrial coatings.
Walk down any hardware aisle and you will spot cheap brush on paint kits for sale. Sadly those DIY mixtures peel and bubble up within just a few months of heavy use.
Professional spraying requires commercial grade bonding agents and specialized HVLP paint guns. This equipment lays down an atomized layer that lasts a very long time.
Furthermore our trained technicians have years of experience dealing with tricky corners and curved edges. This saves you from making costly mistakes that require complete stripping and do overs.
Avoiding rubber bath mats with suction cups prevents nasty moisture from trapping underneath the surface. Instead you can use a cloth mat that breathes and dries out quickly.
Harsh bleach products can dull the brilliant shine if left sitting too long on the acrylic. Therefore rinsing the basin thoroughly after every use protects that gorgeous gloss.
Routine inspections around the caulk lines stop hidden water leaks before they rot your subfloor. Staying proactive saves you from expensive structural headaches down the road.
Are you finally ready to ditch that embarrassing stained basin for good? Well our local team is standing by to answer all your technical questions.

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 Haven, 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.
