A dull or chipped tub in Reedsburg 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.

Many homeowners confuse this specialized service with buying a cheap plastic liner that traps water and breeds mold. Actually, we apply a high-tech liquid acrylic coating directly over your existing porcelain, cast iron, or fiberglass. This bonding agent fuses to the old material on a molecular level to create a rock-hard defensive layer.
First, we strip away all the old silicon caulk and clean the area with industrial strength cleaners. Then, we repair any deep chips, rust spots, or ugly cracks so the foundation is completely flat. Finally, we spray on several coats of premium glaze that cures into a beautiful, non-porous barrier.
This process completely seals your fixture against future water damage and annoying soap scum buildup. Consequently, you will spend way less time scrubbing on your hands and knees during weekend cleaning chores. Your daily shower routine suddenly feels luxurious again because you are not staring at yellow stains and scratch marks.
Taking out an old cast iron tub often requires breaking it into pieces with a heavy sledgehammer. Which means you risk damaging your floor joists, drywall, and expensive copper water lines in the process. On top of that, new models often do not fit the footprint of your vintage bathroom setup.
You might also have to hire a licensed plumber, a tile setter, and a drywall taper just to finish the job. Those labor costs add up incredibly fast and can easily ruin your household budget. Our specialized surface restoration avoids all of that chaos by keeping your current setup right where it belongs.
Choosing to renew instead of discard is also a much greener option for environmentally conscious families. You prevent hundreds of pounds of heavy porcelain and concrete debris from clogging up local landfills. It is a win for your wallet and a huge win for the planet at the exact same time.
Living in Sauk County means dealing with hard water that leaves nasty orange rust stains and mineral crust on everything.

To help you make the best decision for your home, we put together a quick comparison of the most common methods. You can see how our specialized spraying service compares to liners and total replacement projects.
| Renovation Method | Average Cost | Time to Complete | Expected Lifespan |
|---|---|---|---|
| Full Bathroom Demolition | Very High | 1 to 2 Weeks | 20+ Years |
| Plastic Tub Liners | Medium | 1 to 2 Days | 3 to 5 Years |
| Professional Surface Reglazing | Very Low | 4 to 6 Hours | 10 to 15 Years |
As you can see, our surface coating system offers the absolute best balance of speed, cost, and durability. You do not have to wait weeks for contractors to finish their noisy work. We get in, do a flawless job, and let you get back to your normal life by the next day.
Keeping your restored surface looking spectacular is incredibly easy if you follow a few basic guidelines. First, you must never use abrasive scouring powders or steel wool pads on the new finish. These harsh tools create tiny scratches that dull the shine and collect dirt over time.
Instead, you should use mild dish soap or specialty foam cleaners along with a soft microfiber cloth. This gentle cleaning method easily removes soap film without harming the protective topcoat. Additionally, you should avoid leaving wet shampoo bottles or heavy metal cans sitting directly on the ledge.
Another smart tip is to repair any leaky faucets as soon as you notice them dripping. Constant water dripping can eventually wear down even the strongest industrial coatings over several years. Taking care of these small details ensures your bathroom stays gorgeous for more than a decade.
Sometimes a heavy glass bottle or a dropped tool can chip even the toughest protective coatings. Fortunately, our team can easily patch these small spots without redoing the entire structure. We simply fill the damaged area and blend it seamlessly with the surrounding glossy material.
This flexibility makes our system much better than plastic liners, which crack easily and cannot be repaired. Once water gets behind a plastic liner, you have to tear the whole thing out to stop the mold. Our seamless application prevents water from ever finding a way behind your beautiful finish.
We also make sure to use slip-resistant textures on the bottom of the basin if you request it. This safety feature helps prevent dangerous slips and falls without requiring ugly, dirt-collecting rubber mats. You get a sleek, clean look that keeps your family safe every single day.

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 Reedsburg, 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.
