A dull or chipped tub in Sheffield 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 assume that a faded, scratched cast iron or steel basin is destined for the local landfill. However, our specialized process involves applying advanced, industrial-grade coatings directly over your existing structure to seal up those unsightly blemishes. We meticulously clean, prep, and bond a fresh, durable acrylic-urethane layer right over the old porcelain.

Which means you get a factory-quality glaze that resists chips and stains for many years to come. Plus, we handle all the tedious prep work so you can just sit back and relax.

Choosing to update your bathroom fixtures should not drain your entire savings account. Since the median household income in our lovely corner of Colbert County is around $34,688, we know that finding smart, cost-effective home improvement solutions is incredibly important to our neighbors. We pride ourselves on delivering premium results that fit comfortably within your family budget.
Our dedicated crew regularly travels all over the 35660 ZIP code area to help folks breathe new life into their older homes. This allows us to serve the local population of 8,986 residents with fast, friendly, and reliable service right at their doorsteps. You get the peace of mind that comes with hiring a nearby business that truly cares about the community.
On top of that, we always bring our own professional safety gear to keep your home clean and odor-free during the application process. We exhaust all fumes safely outdoors using industrial exhaust fans. Because of this extra care, your home remains safe and comfortable for your children and pets throughout the day.
Achieving a bond that lasts for decades requires absolute precision during the initial etching phase. We use professional-strength acid cleaners to strip away decades of soap scum, hard water deposits, and body oils. Without this deep chemical cleaning, any new coating would simply peel off within a few months.
Next, we carefully repair any deep gouges, rust spots, or chips using a high-strength polyester filler. This step ensures the final surface is completely flat and smooth to the touch. Once the repair compounds cure, we apply a proprietary molecular bonding agent that acts like superglue between the old porcelain and the new topcoat.
Once our team finishes the job, you must treat the fresh surface with a little bit of respect. We highly recommend avoiding abrasive bleach cleansers or rough scrubbing pads that can dull the glossy shine over time. Instead, you should use mild, non-abrasive liquid soaps and a soft microfiber cloth to keep it looking pristine.
Additionally, you must never leave wet washcloths or heavy bottles sitting on the surface for extended periods. This simple habit prevents moisture from getting trapped under the coating and causing premature bubbling. With just a tiny bit of basic care, your beautiful new finish will stay bright and shiny for up to fifteen years.
If you are currently living with an embarrassing avocado green, dusty rose, or harvest gold basin from the 1970s, we have great news for you. We can easily transform those outdated, retro colors into a clean, modern, brilliant white or almond tone. This instant color change completely brightens up the entire room, making it feel much larger and cleaner.
This simple visual upgrade instantly boosts the overall appeal of your entire home. Whether you plan to sell your property soon or just want to enjoy your space more, a bright bathroom is a major selling point. Prospective buyers always appreciate seeing clean, modern fixtures rather than dirty, dated projects they have to fix themselves.
Furthermore, we can even apply this same high-tech restoration process to your surrounding wall tiles. This lets you update your entire bathing enclosure at the exact same time for a cohesive, modern look. You will save an incredible amount of money by avoiding tile demolition and costly plumbing hookups.
When our friendly technician arrives at your home, we start by masking off your entire bathroom with protective plastic sheeting and heavy-duty tape. This step protects your vanity, toilet, flooring, and walls from any accidental overspray. We treat your property with the utmost respect, just like we would treat our own homes.
After completing the extensive cleaning and etching process, we spray several coats of our premium aliphatic polyurethane finish. This material is specifically engineered to withstand constant hot water exposure without yellowing or cracking. Once we pack up our gear and leave, you only need to wait about twenty-four hours before you can enjoy your first warm, relaxing soak.
Naturally, we always perform a thorough final inspection with you to ensure every single detail is absolutely perfect. We want you to be completely thrilled with the smooth texture and brilliant shine of your restored fixture. Our job is not finished until you are smiling and ready to show off your beautiful bathroom to your friends.

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 Sheffield, 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.
