All over Renville 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 might wonder how we turn a dull, scratched piece of porcelain into a sparkling masterpiece. First, we clean the existing basin with special acids to strip away decades of soap scum and hard water deposits. This step is super important because the new materials will not stick to oils or grime.
Next, we repair any deep chips or ugly cracks using a heavy-duty polyester filler. After sanding those spots flat, we apply a proprietary bonding agent that acts like superglue for the liquid acrylic. This ensures the topcoat stays put for many years without peeling off when you take a hot shower.
Finally, we use professional spray equipment to apply several thin coats of a high-tech resin. This creates a non-porous barrier that resists mildew and looks exactly like a brand-new fixture from the store. You will love how easy it is to wipe clean after we finish our work.
To help you understand the differences, here is a quick comparison of your options:
| Project Type | Average Time | Mess Level | Cost Factor |
|---|---|---|---|
| Full Replacement | 3 to 5 Days | Very High | Very Expensive |
| Acrylic Liner Install | 1 to 2 Days | Medium | Moderate |
| Our Spray Restoration | 4 to 6 Hours | Very Low | Highly Affordable |
Many homeowners think they must tear out their entire bathroom wall just to get a clean tub. Honestly, plumbers often have to break your beautiful tiles and cut into the drywall just to pull the heavy cast iron beast out. That process turns your peaceful home into a dusty, noisy construction zone for a week or more.
On top of that, you will have to pay for expensive tile repairs and new plumbing fixtures. The bills pile up so fast that you might regret ever starting the project in the first place. Our on-site spray application avoids all that chaos by keeping your original layout completely intact.
Which means you keep your money in your pocket while still getting that clean, fresh feeling. We leave your bathroom spotless and take care of all the prep work ourselves. You can relax on your couch while we do the hard, smelly work behind closed doors.
Once we pack up our tools, you need to know how to treat your newly glazed surface. Even though the coating is extremely tough, you should never use abrasive cleaners like Comet or harsh scrubbing pads on it. Those scratchy powders will dull the beautiful gloss over time and ruin the shine.
Instead, you should use mild dish soap or a gentle spray cleaner with a microfiber cloth. This simple routine keeps the surface slick so dirt washes away with zero effort. We also recommend fixing leaky faucets quickly so dripping water does not wear down the drain area.
Additionally, try to avoid leaving wet shampoo bottles or heavy toys sitting on the rim. If you follow these basic rules, your gorgeous tub will look incredible for up to a decade. It is a small price to pay for such a massive boost in your daily happiness.
We love helping folks in this beautiful region improve their homes without breaking the bank. Whether you live in a cozy farmhouse or a nice town home, our mobile service van comes straight to your driveway. We know the local water quality can be tough on plumbing, which is why our durable coatings are so helpful.
For those interested in local details, this peaceful area in the northern part of the Peace Garden State has a small, tight-knit population. Many homes here have classic character, featuring older fixtures that are built like tanks but just need some cosmetic love. The median household income in these parts shows that local families appreciate good, honest value for their hard-earned dollars.
If you reside in any of the local ZIP codes, we are your go-to neighbors for this specialized service. We treat your property with total respect and always clean up our mess before we leave. You do not have to drive far to find quality craftsmanship because we bring the expertise right to your doorstep.
Because the chemicals we use have a very strong odor, we take safety super seriously. We set up heavy-duty exhaust fans and long vinyl tubes to blow the fumes out of your nearest window. This keeps your indoor air clean and prevents the smell from spreading to your bedrooms.
Our technicians also wear professional respirators and protective gear while spraying the bonding agents. You might smell a faint scent for a day, but it goes away completely once the materials cure. Your safety and peace of mind are always our top priorities during every single visit.
Most old fixtures made of cast iron, pressed steel, or fiberglass are perfect for this process. Even if your tub has some rust around the drain, we can usually grind it away and patch it up nicely. However, if the metal is completely rusted through with giant holes, a replacement might be your only choice.
We are always honest with you about what we can and cannot fix. When we come out for your free consultation, we will inspect the structure to make sure it is worth your investment. This honest approach is why our customers trust us and recommend us to their friends.
Now is the perfect time to take action and finally get the clean bathroom you deserve. You do not have to stare at that yellowed, chipped surface for another single day. Let our skilled hands turn your old tub into a glowing centerpiece that you can actually enjoy using.
Remember that our quotes are completely free of charge and carry absolutely no obligation. We will sit down with you, explain the entire process, and give you a fair price on the spot. This lets you make an smart decision for your home budget without any high-pressure sales tactics.
Simply reach out to us today to schedule your convenient home visit. We look forward to meeting you and transforming your bathroom into a bright, welcoming space. Grab your phone or send us a message right now to get started on your home upgrade.
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.
