A dull or chipped tub in New Whiteland 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 your old tub looks like a horror movie prop with those ugly stains and scratches.

This smart process saves you thousands of dollars while giving you a bright, clean wash space you can actually show off to guests.
Because we believe in honest business, we always start with a completely free written estimate. This lets you plan your budget perfectly without any hidden fees or surprises down the road. Grab your phone today and request your free quote to see how affordable your dream bathroom can be!
First, let us explain what this process actually looks like when we step into your home. Instead of sledgehammering your old cast iron or fiberglass fixture, we apply high-tech coatings directly over the existing structure. This means we chemically bond a new, durable glaze to the old surface to seal up every single pore and chip.
On top of that, we use specialized industrial primers that make the new topcoat stick like crazy. Which means your fresh, glossy finish will not peel or bubble after a few hot showers. You get a beautiful, easy-to-clean barrier that resists mold and mildew for years to come.
Actually, many homeowners do not realize how fast this whole transformation takes. While a traditional contractor might leave your bathroom unusable for weeks, our process takes only a single day. You will save time, avoid the construction dust, and jump right back into your normal routine overnight.
To be completely honest, our team treats your home like it belongs to our own grandmother. Since we operate right here in this cozy portion of Johnson County, we understand the common plumbing setups in our neighborhood homes. We know how to handle everything from antique clawfoot models to modern standard alcove units.
In addition to our local pride, we bring years of hands-on experience to every single job. We do not cut corners by skipping the tedious sanding or using cheap DIY hardware store kits. Our professionals use commercial-grade ventilation systems to keep your indoor air safe and odor-free during the application.
This attention to detail ensures that your finished product looks smooth, glossy, and entirely seamless. If you want to see what is possible for your specific bathroom, we are happy to take a look. We will drive out to your place and give you a detailed assessment for absolutely zero cost.
| Project Factor | Our Restoration Process | Full Tub Replacement |
|---|---|---|
| Average Cost | Very affordable, usually a fraction of replacement | Highly expensive due to plumbing and tile work |
| Time to Complete | Finished in less than 24 hours | Can take up to a week or more |
| Mess & Dust | Minimal, fully contained workspace | Major demolition dust and drywall debris |
Clearly, looking at this comparison table makes the choice pretty simple for most smart homeowners. Choosing our restoration route keeps your hard-earned money in your bank account where it belongs. Plus, you avoid the massive headache of coordinate different plumbers, tilers, and drywall installers.
However, we always like to keep things real and explain the limitations of our process too. If your current fixture has giant, gaping holes or rusted-out drain areas, we might need to do some extra fiberglass patch prep work first. But even with minor repairs, our process remains much cheaper than buying a brand new unit.
Whether you live in a classic ranch home or a newer build, your bathroom fixtures take a beating daily. Over time, harsh chemical cleaners strip away the original factory shine, leaving a dull surface that traps dirt like a magnet. Our process restores that original luster so dirt washes away with just a simple wipe.
By the way, did you know our service area covers the lovely town of New Whiteland, Indiana? This peaceful community of about 5,955 residents appreciates honest hard work and fair pricing.

To give you total peace of mind, we love explaining exactly how we perform our magic. First, we mask off your entire bathroom with protective paper and plastic to shield your floors and vanity. Then, we use a specialized acid-free cleaner to strip away decades of soap scum, body oils, and mineral deposits.
Next, we carefully repair any existing chips, deep scratches, or minor rust spots with a waterproof filler. Once the surface is perfectly flat, we apply our exclusive bonding agent that creates a chemical bridge. This step is the secret sauce that prevents the new finish from lifting over time.
Finally, we spray multiple layers of our high-gloss acrylic urethane topcoat using precision spray equipment. This creates a brilliant, glass-like finish that offers incredible durability and a wonderful feeling of cleanliness. After a short curing period, your fixture is ready for its first relaxing bubble bath!
Once we pack up our tools and leave your home, keeping that shine alive is incredibly simple. You do not need to scrub your arms sore with abrasive powders or harsh bleach anymore. In fact, we recommend using gentle dish soap or mild spray cleaners to keep the surface gleaming.
Therefore, you will spend much less time cleaning your bathroom on weekends and more time doing what you love. Our slick coating prevents soap scum from sticking, which means a quick rinse is usually all it takes. It is a simple benefit that makes your daily life much easier.
Of course, we will provide you with a full list of care tips once we finish the job. We want your investment to last for decades, and proper care is the best way to ensure that happens. If you ever have questions down the road, our friendly local team is always just a phone call away.

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 Whiteland, 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.
