A dull or chipped tub in New Market 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 pretty rough after years of daily scrubbing.

We believe in keeping things simple and honest for our local neighbors. That is why we offer a completely free on-site estimate to look at your setup and give you an exact price. You can easily request your free quote today and take the first step toward a sparkling clean bathroom.
First, we clean the old basin with special acid cleaners to strip away decades of soap scum and hard water deposits. This critical preparation step ensures the new finish bonds perfectly to the original material. If we skip this part, the new coating will just peel off like a bad sunburn after a few weeks.
Next, we repair any ugly chips, deep scratches, or rusted areas using a heavy-duty polyester filler. This smoothing process recreates a flawless surface that feels totally flat to the touch. You will not even be able to find where the old damage used to be once we finish sanding it down.
After that, we apply a high-tech molecular bonding agent that acts like superglue between the old structure and the new liquid acrylic. This chemical bridge is the real secret behind why our finishes last for many years. Then, we spray several coats of a premium acrylic urethane topcoat using professional spray equipment.
To help you understand why this procedure makes so much sense, we put together a quick comparison table. It shows how our surface restoration process stacks up against a traditional full replacement project.
| Factor to Consider | Total Replacement | Professional Refinishing |
|---|---|---|
| Average Project Cost | Very high ($3,000 to $8,000) | Very low and affordable |
| Time to Complete | One to two weeks of mess | Just a few hours |
| Demolition Required | Yes, tearing out walls and tile | None at all |
| Fixture Lifetime | Depends on the new tub quality | Adds 10 to 15 years of use |
As you can see, the benefits of restoring your existing fixture are pretty hard to ignore. You save a mountain of cash while avoiding the dust and noise of a construction zone in your home. Plus, you get to use your refreshed bathroom again in just a couple of days.
Our friendly team lives and works right here in the local region, which includes the lovely community of New Market, Indiana. This quiet town in Clark County has a cozy population of about 636 residents who appreciate honest, hard work. We love helping homeowners in the 47965 ZIP code area upgrade their properties without draining their savings accounts.
Since the median household income in our area requires smart budgeting, we make sure our services offer incredible value. You do not need to be a millionaire to enjoy a clean, glossy bathroom that feels like a luxury spa. We bring all our professional gear straight to your door and treat your home with the utmost respect.
We also know that local homes here have unique plumbing setups that can be a nightmare to disturb. Our process avoids touching your pipes altogether, which means you will not have to hire an expensive plumber to fix broken connections. We keep the entire job contained to the surface of your fixture, saving you from unexpected repair bills.
This modern liquid acrylic finish creates a non-porous surface that resists dirt and mold growth. Which means you will spend way less time scrubbing on your hands and knees with harsh chemicals. A quick wipe with a mild soap and a soft sponge is all it takes to keep it shining.
On top of that, the high-gloss shine reflects light beautifully to make your entire bathroom feel larger and brighter. This simple optical trick does wonders for small, dark bathrooms that lack natural window light. You will actually enjoy taking a relaxing soak in a basin that looks so clean and inviting.
This tough finish also handles hot water and daily use without cracking or yellowing over time. We use industrial-grade materials that are vastly superior to the cheap DIY kits you find at the local hardware store. Those cheap retail paints usually fail within a few months, leaving you with a sticky, peeling mess.
We use powerful exhaust fans with long hoses to vent all the fumes directly out of your nearest window during the spraying process. This setup protects your family and your pets from breathing in the strong chemical odors. Once we pack up our gear, the smell fades away very quickly within a few hours.
We also wear full protective suits and respirators to ensure our crew stays safe while doing the application. Our commitment to safety means we handle every chemical with extreme care and precision. You can relax in the other room while we do all the heavy lifting and precise spraying.
To keep your glossy finish looking brand new, you should avoid using abrasive cleaners like Comet or Ajax. These gritty powders will scratch the acrylic and dull the beautiful shine over time. Instead, stick to gentle liquid dish soaps or specialized foam cleaners that do not scratch.
Also, make sure you do not leave wet bottles of shampoo or heavy toys sitting on the rim for long periods. Standing water can eventually weaken the bond if it sits there constantly for weeks. A little bit of simple care ensures your new finish stays gorgeous for over a decade.
Now is the perfect time to stop ignoring that ugly, stained basin and finally do something about it. Our team is ready to drive out to your property and give you an honest, detailed assessment. We never pressure you into buying, and our quotes are completely free of any hidden obligations.
By choosing our professional restoration service, you support a local business that cares about quality craftsmanship. We take immense pride in turning ugly bathrooms into beautiful spaces that you can be proud of when guests visit. Let us help you fall in love with your home all over again.

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 Market, 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.
