A dull or chipped tub in Walton 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.

By choosing this smart update, you can completely skip the hassle of weeks of construction work.

When you first think about fixing up a tired bathroom, your brain probably goes straight to tearing everything out.
However, that path often leads to unexpected plumbing headaches, broken wall tiles, and massive bills that keep growing.
Which means you might end up without a working shower for days or even weeks on end.
On top of that, older homes often feature heavy cast iron fixtures that are practically indestructible and hold heat wonderfully.
Replacing them with cheap modern plastic alternatives feels like a massive downgrade.
This lets you keep that solid, high-quality original piece while giving it a gorgeous, clean surface that feels like absolute luxury.
To help you compare your options, we put together a quick look at how the traditional replacement route stacks up against our specialized surface renewal process.
| Factor | Full Replacement Demolition | Our Surface Renewal Process |
|---|---|---|
| Average Project Duration | Typically 3 to 7 days of messy work | Finished in just a few hours |
| Mess and Dust Level | Extremely high with drywall debris | Virtually none, with fully contained overspray |
| Total Project Cost | Very expensive due to plumbing and tile repairs | Super budget-friendly and straightforward |
| Eco-Friendliness | Sends heavy cast iron or fiberglass to landfills | Reuses your existing fixture completely |
Now, you might be wondering how we actually turn a dull, scratched surface into a gleaming masterpiece.
First, our technician thoroughly cleans the old material using specialized industrial prep agents to strip away decades of soap scum and hard water deposits.
This step is absolutely critical because any leftover oils or dirt will ruin the adhesion of the new topcoat.
Next, we carefully repair any deep chips, cracks, or rust spots using high-grade waterproof fillers.
Once the surface is perfectly flat and smooth, we apply a proprietary bonding agent that acts like a chemical anchor.
After that, we spray multiple layers of an advanced acrylic coating that cures into an incredibly tough, glossy finish.
Naturally, this is not a simple DIY job you can tackle with a cheap brush-on kit from the local hardware store.
Those retail paint kits start peeling off in sheets within a few months, leaving you with an even bigger mess to clean up.
Our professional-grade equipment ensures a perfectly even, factory-like spray pattern that stands up to daily scrubbing for years.
Maybe you have an old porcelain-enameled steel basin, or perhaps a modern fiberglass shower stall that has yellowed over time.
Amazingly, our process works beautifully on almost any material, including heavy cast iron, acrylic, and even ceramic wall tiles.
This versatility allows us to refresh your entire shower surround at the same time, giving you a cohesive, modern look.
If you have a clawfoot tub that holds historical charm, we can easily restore both the interior and exterior to their former glory.
We take pride in preserving these classic pieces so they can continue to be the centerpiece of your home.
You get to enjoy all the visual benefits of a brand-new fixture without losing the unique character of your property.
We are proud to serve our local community, helping homeowners throughout the scenic Catskills region revitalize their properties.
Living in a quiet, historic town like Walton, New York, means appreciating the older homes that give our neighborhood its unique charm.
With a local population of about 3,160 people, we treat every single client like our neighbor, because you actually are.
Since the median household income in this beautiful area sits around $37,031, we know how important it is to get real value for your money.
Spending thousands on a bathroom remodel just does not make sense when you can get the same visual result for a fraction of the price.
Our services in the 13856 ZIP code area are designed to be accessible, honest, and incredibly reliable for everyone.
Once our technician finishes the application, you will want to make sure that beautiful shine lasts as long as possible.
Fortunately, caring for your renewed fixture is actually much easier than dealing with old, porous porcelain.
Because the new non-porous topcoat resists dirt and soap scum, you do not need to scrub like crazy anymore.
To maintain the gloss, simply wipe the surface down with a mild liquid soap and a soft sponge after use.
You must avoid abrasive powders, bleach, or harsh scrubbing pads, which can dull the shiny finish over time.
Taking these simple precautions ensures your bathroom stays bright, inviting, and easy to clean for up to a decade.
Additionally, we highly recommend fixing any dripping faucets as soon as possible to prevent mineral staining.
Constant water droplets can eventually wear down even the toughest coatings over several years of neglect.
A little bit of preventative maintenance goes a very long way in keeping your home looking pristine.
Since we use professional-grade chemical coatings, there will be some strong odors while we spray the new surface.
To keep you and your family safe, we bring powerful exhaust fans and sealing plastics to vent all fumes directly outside.
The smell dissipates quickly once the curing process finishes, leaving behind nothing but a gorgeous, clean bathroom.
We also make sure to mask off your floors, walls, and vanity to protect them from any stray overspray particles.
Our technicians clean up after themselves so thoroughly that you won't even know we were there... except for the stunning tub.
We treat your home with the exact same respect and care that we would show to our own families.
If you are tired of cringing every time you step into the shower, it is time to take action.
Why continue putting up with an ugly, stained washbasin when a simple, affordable solution is just a quick call away?
We are ready to visit your home, inspect your fixture, and provide a completely transparent, competitive quote.
Our friendly team will walk you through the entire process, help you choose the perfect color, and answer any questions you have.
We believe in honest pricing with absolutely no hidden fees or high-pressure sales tactics.

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 Walton, 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.
