A dull or chipped tub in Rington 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.
That ugly, chipped basin in your washroom probably drives you crazy every single day.
Replacing it completely costs a small fortune and creates a massive, dusty mess.
Luckily, our local team can spray a fresh, durable coating right over your existing tub to make it shine like new again.
When you look at that stained surface, you might think a full remodel is your only option.
Honestly, ripping out a heavy cast iron tub often damages your walls and plumbing fixtures.
Our specialized service saves you thousands of dollars by restoring the original piece in just a few hours.
Instead of living with an eyesore, you can enjoy a bright, clean washroom by tomorrow.
This fast process seals up old, porous surfaces where nasty mildew loves to hide and grow.
We would love to visit your home and give you a free estimate to show you how affordable this transformation really is.
First, we must understand what this restoration process actually involves for your home.
Many people mistake this service for a simple coat of cheap hardware store paint.
In reality, we use professional-grade acrylic urethane resins that bond chemically to your old porcelain or fiberglass.
To start, we meticulously clean the old surface with special acid pastes to strip away decades of soap scum.
After repairing any deep chips or cracks with waterproof polyester fillers, we apply a chemical bonding agent.
This crucial step ensures the new shiny topcoat fuses permanently with the original structure underneath.
Next, our technicians use specialized HVLP spray equipment to apply multiple layers of the high-tech coating.
Because we use industrial ventilation fans, we pull the strong fumes out of your house while we work.
Once the material cures, you get a beautiful, glossy finish that looks exactly like brand new porcelain.
Think about the sheer hassle of hiring plumbers, tile setters, and drywall contractors just for one bathroom.
Which means you could have strangers walking through your home for a week or more.
Our on-site process takes less than a single day from start to finish.
On top of that, landfill waste is a huge problem that we can easily avoid together.
By choosing to recoat your old fixtures, you keep heavy, non-biodegradable materials out of our local dumps.
This eco-friendly choice protects the environment while keeping your hard-earned money in your wallet.
If you live in a charming older home, your original cast iron tub is probably high quality.
Modern replacement units often feel flimsy, cheap, and cold compared to those sturdy classic models.
Preserving that vintage character gives your home a unique touch of warmth and historic appeal.
Before we spray a single drop of material, we spend hours masking off your entire bathroom.
This meticulous preparation protects your walls, floors, and vanity from any accidental overspray.
We take great pride in leaving your home just as clean as we found it.
To give you a clear picture of how this works, we laid out the typical timeline below.
| Project Stage | What We Do | Your Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| Preparation | Clean, etch, and repair chips | Ensures a smooth, lasting bond |
| Priming | Apply chemical bonding agents | Prevents peeling and lifting later |
| Topcoating | Spray multiple acrylic urethane layers | Delivers a brilliant, glass-like shine |
| Curing | Let the material dry for 24 hours | Creates a rock-hard, durable surface |
Once we pack up our gear, you only need to wait a day before taking a relaxing soak.
This quick turnaround is perfect for busy households with only one bathroom.
You get maximum convenience without sacrificing the quality of the final result.
We love traveling to small, quiet communities in the Bootheel region to help folks update their homes.
Down in Dunklin County, neighbors know the value of honest labor and fair prices.
Whether you live near the highway or tucked away in town, we bring our mobile workshop right to your driveway.
Our small community of about 250 residents deserves the same high-quality home services as the big cities.
Since the median household income here requires smart budgeting, we keep our prices highly competitive.
We proudly serve everyone in the local ZIP code area with friendly, reliable customer service.
As local service providers, we understand the specific water conditions and housing styles of this region.
Many homes here feature classic fixtures that are perfect candidates for our specialized restoration process.
We treat your property with the utmost respect, just like we would treat our own family's home.
To keep your lustrous new finish looking incredible, you must avoid abrasive bleach powders.
Instead, use mild liquid dish soaps or non-abrasive bathroom sprays for your weekly cleaning.
This simple routine prevents microscopic scratches that can dull the shine over time.
Also, never leave wet bath mats sitting on the bottom of the basin after your shower.
Trapped moisture under suction cups can eventually weaken the bond of the new coating.
By taking these easy precautions, your beautiful surface will look brand new for up to fifteen years.
Some people believe that a DIY kit from the local hardware store works just as well.
However, those cheap brush-on paints lack the chemical bonding agents needed for long-term durability.
They usually start peeling and flaking off within a few months, leaving an even bigger mess to clean up.
Another common misconception is that the finished product will look obviously painted.
In reality, our professional spray technique leaves a completely seamless, mirror-like finish.
Your guests will honestly think you spent thousands of dollars on a brand new bathroom installation.
Lastly, some worry that the chemical smell will linger in their home for weeks.
Actually, our heavy-duty exhaust systems clear out the vast majority of the odor before we leave.
Any remaining faint scent completely disappears within twenty-four hours as the material cures.
Are you ready to say goodbye to that ugly, hard-to-clean bathroom surface once and for all?

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 Rington, 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.
