A dull or chipped tub in Redford 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.
You stare at that dingy, stained basin every single morning while brushing your teeth. Honestly, it looks like something out of a horror movie with those rusty rings and worn-out spots. Fortunately, you do not have to spend a fortune on a chaotic demolition project to fix this mess. Our local crew travels right to your home in Clinton County to make that ancient fixture look brand new again.
Actually, we can save you thousands of dollars compared to a full replacement. You get to skip the dusty nightmare of tearing out walls and plumbing. Instead, we apply a gorgeous, glossy liquid acrylic coating that bonds directly to your existing cast iron or fiberglass setup. This process brings back the original shine without any of the typical remodeling headaches.
Right now, you can get a completely free estimate for your home in the 12978 area. Our friendly team will explain how we prep, repair, and seal everything. We love helping our neighbors fall in love with their bathrooms all over again.
Most folks think they have to rip the whole bathroom apart when the finish gets dull. However, that choice usually leads to a massive financial headache. You start by paying for the new unit, but then you realize the old doorway is too narrow to get the old one out. Which means the contractors have to smash your drywall and tile just to remove a piece of metal.
On top of that, your plumbing lines might not line up with the new drain location. Suddenly, a simple weekend project turns into a multi-week disaster with expensive bills. Happily, our specialized surface restoration service bypasses every single one of those annoying steps. We do all the work right inside your existing space in just a few hours.
Think about the peace of mind you will enjoy by keeping your original heavy-duty cast iron. Older fixtures actually hold heat much better than the cheap plastic ones sold at big-box stores today. By restoring the protective layer, you keep the quality while upgrading the look.
You might wonder how we get that liquid coating to stick so well to a slick surface. First, we clean the area with specialized industrial prep agents to strip away decades of soap scum and hard water deposits. This step is super important because even a tiny bit of oil can ruin the bond. We then fix any deep chips, cracks, or rust spots with a heavy-duty polyester filler.
After that, we apply a high-tech molecular bonding agent called a silane coupling primer. This chemical bridge literally fuses the new acrylic urethane to the old porcelain on a microscopic level. Next, we spray several uniform coats of our premium topcoat using professional high-volume, low-pressure equipment. The result is a smooth, glass-like finish that looks identical to a brand-new factory piece.
To help you compare your options, we put together a simple breakdown of how this method stacks up against traditional remodeling.
| Comparison Factor | Our Restoration Service | Full Tub Replacement |
|---|---|---|
| Average Project Cost | Very affordable, usually under a grand | Extremely expensive, often thousands |
| Time to Complete | Just 4 to 6 hours total | Several days of messy construction |
| Durability | Lasts 10 to 15 years with basic care | Depends on the quality of the new tub |
| Mess and Dust | Minimal, we seal off the room | Heavy drywall dust and debris |
Once we pack up our tools, you need to know how to treat your upgraded space. Naturally, you want this beautiful shine to last for a really long time. The secret lies in throwing away those harsh abrasive cleansers and scratchy scrub sponges. Those rough chemical powders will dull the glossy topcoat and eventually ruin all our hard work.
Instead, you should use mild dish soap or gentle foaming bathroom cleaners. This simple change keeps the surface incredibly slick, which actually prevents dirt and soap residue from sticking in the first place. This means you will spend way less time scrubbing on your hands and knees. Who wouldn't want a bathroom that practically cleans itself with a quick wipe?
Additionally, we always recommend avoiding those suction-cup bathmats. The constant pulling action can eventually weaken the bond of any synthetic coating. We can actually apply a built-in slip-resistant texture to the bottom of your basin during our process. This built-in safety feature protects your family without risking damage to the fresh glaze.

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 Redford, 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.
