All over Orange County, worn bathtubs are resurfaced in place: repairs first, gloss second, fresh caulk on the way out.
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.
You wake up and stare at that dated, chipped tub surface every single morning. It looks dingy, feels rough, and makes your entire bathroom feel like a relic from another decade. Fortunately, you do not have to spend thousands of dollars on a chaotic remodel to get that clean, glossy shine back. Our local team comes right to your home to restore that old basin to its former glory quickly and affordably.
By choosing this smart resurfacing method, you save tons of time and keep your sanity intact. We specialize in bringing worn-out bathroom fixtures back to life with a gorgeous finish that lasts for years. Right now, you can grab a 1000% free estimate to see exactly how simple and cheap this transformation will be for your home.
Instead of ripping out your entire plumbing setup, this clever technique applies a fresh, durable liquid coating directly over your existing cast iron or fiberglass layout. First, we clean the area with specialized industrial prep agents to strip away decades of soap scum and hard water deposits. After that, we repair any deep scratches or ugly chips so the foundation is completely flat and smooth.
Next, our technicians spray a high-tech bonding agent that fuses the new material to the old base. Then we apply multiple coats of a premium acrylic polymer topcoat that cures into a rock-hard, shiny shield. This means you get a gorgeous, stain-resistant surface that looks identical to a brand new porcelain installation from the factory.
Because we use professional-grade ventilation systems during the application, you do not have to worry about strong fumes lingering in your home. The entire process takes only a few hours from start to finish. Once the curing process wraps up, your renewed washing space is ready for action.
If you have ever talked to a general contractor, you know that replacing a built-in tub is an absolute nightmare. They usually have to break wall tiles, widen the doorway, and mess with old plumbing pipes behind the drywall. That headache can easily drag on for a week or more while leaving you without a functioning bathroom.
On top of that, the bill for a traditional remodel can get incredibly ugly very fast. You have to pay for the new unit, the demolition labor, the tile repair, and the expensive plumber fees. Our fast restoration service costs a small fraction of that total price while delivering the exact same visual result.

|---|---|---|

| Average Financial Cost | Very expensive with hidden plumbing fees | Extremely budget-friendly and clear |
| Dust and Mess Level | Tons of drywall dust and broken tile debris | Virtually zero mess left behind |
| Durability | Depends on the quality of the new tub bought | Stays beautiful for up to 10-15 years with care |

Our beautiful Hoosier State is famous for its gorgeous historic architecture and cozy rural communities. Whether you live in a classic farmhouse near the historic French Lick resort area or a cozy ranch home closer to Paoli, we understand the local charm. Many older homes in this scenic county feature heavy, high-quality cast iron tubs that are actually worth saving.
Those vintage fixtures have incredible character and holding heat properties that modern plastic tubs simply cannot match. By coating the worn enamel, you preserve that historic craftsmanship while removing the ugly stains and scratches. We proudly serve all residents across the local region, including those living in ZIP codes like 47454, 47432, and 47125.
Since the local median household income in this beautiful part of southern Indiana is around forty-eight thousand dollars, saving money on home improvement is a major priority for many families. Our cost-effective solution lets you upgrade your living space without draining your savings account or taking out stressful loans. You get a beautiful, clean space to relax after a long day of work without any financial stress.
To ensure your shiny new finish stays bright and pristine for a very long time, you must treat it with a little bit of love. Avoid using harsh abrasive powders, bleach, or rough scrubbing pads that can scratch the protective topcoat. Instead, wipe the surface down with a mild liquid soap and a soft microfiber cloth after each use.
This simple cleaning routine prevents soap scum buildup and keeps the gloss looking incredibly sharp. Also, remember to repair any leaky faucets quickly so constant dripping does not wear down the finish prematurely. If you follow these basic care guidelines, your renewed wash basin will look spectacular for well over a decade.

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, 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.
Zoom for the lay of the land; the link lists further down name every community the van reaches from here.
Somewhere under that worn surface is the tub you chose. One day brings it back.
