A dull or chipped tub in Santo Domingo Pueblo 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.
Your old tub probably looks like it survived a small war... right?
Instead of ripping out your entire wall and spending thousands of dollars on a messy remodel, you can choose a smart alternative that makes your wash basin look brand new in just one afternoon. This affordable solution saves you time and headache while keeping your hard-earned money in your wallet.
By hiring a local specialist to apply a fresh, durable liquid coating over your existing fixture, you completely bypass the dust and noise of traditional construction. We come right to your home in the historic Sandoval County area to restore that brilliant shine today.
First, we clean the old surface with special acids to remove decades of soap scum, hard water deposits, and body oils. This critical step ensures that the new glossy coating bonds perfectly to the original porcelain or fiberglass material. After repairing any deep chips or ugly cracks with a heavy-duty filler, we spray a high-tech primer that acts like superglue for the final layers.
Next, our technician applies several coats of a specialized acrylic urethane using a professional spray gun. This material cures into an incredibly hard, glossy shell that looks exactly like brand new porcelain. You get a gorgeous, easy-to-clean surface that resists stains and looks absolutely beautiful for years to come.
To help you compare your options, here is how this smart update stacks up against a full replacement:
| Feature | Our Restoration Service | Full Tub Replacement |
|---|---|---|
| Average Cost | Very affordable, usually under $600 | High, often $3,000+ with plumbing |
| Time to Complete | Around 4 to 6 hours | Typically 3 to 5 days of mess |
| Durability | Lasts 10 to 15 years with proper care | Long-term, but highly expensive |
| Demolition Required | None at all | Major wall and tile destruction |
Because saving money is always a great idea... especially when the results look this good!
With a local median household income of around $33,000, nobody wants to throw away their savings on overpriced plumbing contractors and expensive tile destruction. Our fast, budget-friendly process gives you the exact same visual upgrade for a fraction of the price.
On top of that, you will not have to deal with dusty drywall, broken tiles, or noisy workers hammering inside your house for a week. We slip in quietly, do our magic, clean up after ourselves, and leave you with a sparkling bathroom that you will actually want to show off to guests.
Rust spots around the drain can make even a clean bathroom look dirty and neglected. Our advanced repair process seals those rusty areas completely, preventing moisture from eating further into the metal underneath. This protects your home from hidden water leaks and expensive structural rot.
Which means you can finally take a relaxing bath without staring at ugly brown patches and embarrassing scratches. We restore that smooth feel under your feet, making your daily soak a truly peaceful experience again.
Old, worn-out acrylic and cast iron tubs become porous over time, which lets mold and mildew hide deep inside the surface where scrubs cannot reach. Our fresh, non-porous topcoat seals those microscopic pores completely, creating a sanitary barrier that germs cannot penetrate. This makes weekly cleaning a breeze because dirt slides right off the slick surface with just a gentle wipe.
Consequently, you can stop using harsh, smelly chemical scrubbers that burn your eyes and wear out your arm muscles. A simple splash of mild dish soap and warm water keeps your restored wash basin looking brilliant and smelling fresh every single day.
Living in the beautiful Pueblo of Santo Domingo, also known as Kewa Pueblo, means dealing with unique desert conditions and hard water. The high mineral content in our local water supply can quickly ruin a standard finish, leaving dull gray film and stubborn white crusts behind. Our specialized coatings are engineered to withstand these harsh minerals, keeping their luster far longer than cheap DIY paint kits.
Whether you live in the heart of the community near ZIP code 87052 or along the scenic Rio Grande, our mobile service truck comes directly to your doorstep. We understand the local architecture and the care needed to work in homes that hold deep cultural and historical value. With a local population of 2,379 residents, we treat every customer like our neighbor, delivering honest craftsmanship and friendly service every time.
You might see cheap epoxy kits at the local hardware store and think about tackling this project yourself. Honestly, those paint-on products almost always peel, blister, and turn an ugly yellow color within a few short months. They lack the professional-grade bonding agents and spray equipment required to create a smooth, long-lasting finish.
Ultimately, stripping off a failed DIY paint job costs twice as much because we have to use harsh chemicals to scrape away the sticky mess before we can apply our premium product. Save yourself the headache and let a trained professional do it right the very first time with commercial-grade materials.

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 Santo Domingo Pueblo, 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.
