Essentially, this specialized process involves applying a durable, high-gloss coating over your existing cast iron or steel tub.
First, we strip away the old, peeling layers and clean the surface with professional-grade compounds to remove every bit of soap scum.
After that, we repair any deep chips, rust spots, or ugly cracks so the foundation looks perfectly smooth.
Once the prep work is complete, our technicians apply a special bonding agent that locks the new finish to the old material.
Following this step, we spray several coats of an advanced acrylic polymer finish that creates a non-porous, glassy barrier.
This fresh layer resists stains and looks exactly like brand-new porcelain once it cures.
Because we use high-tech ventilation systems during the application, we keep odors in your home to an absolute minimum.
You will love how easy the new surface is to clean because dirt simply slides right off without heavy scrubbing.
To help you compare your options, we put together this quick comparison table to show why this method makes so much sense.
| Feature | Our Restoration Process | Full Tub Replacement |
|---|---|---|
| Total Cost | Very affordable, fraction of replacement | Extremely high, includes plumbing costs |
| Time to Complete | 4 to 6 hours total | Usually 3 to 7 days of construction |
| Mess and Dust | Very minimal, fully contained | Heavy demolition dust and debris |
| Lifespan | 10 to 15 years with proper care | Long-lasting but hard to install |
Living here in the beautiful state of Arkansas means we value hard work, honesty, and treating our neighbors like family.
We proudly serve the wonderful communities throughout Woodruff County, where local families appreciate honest pricing and top-tier craftsmanship.
Whether you reside in a historic home or a modern ranch, we know exactly how to handle your specific plumbing fixtures.
Honestly, we take immense pride in our attention to detail and never cut corners on the crucial preparation steps.
Many people do not realize that cheap DIY kits from the local hardware store usually peel off within a few months.
In contrast, our commercial-grade materials chemical-bond directly to the substrate for a finish that stands the test of time.
On top of that, we always treat your property with the utmost respect by masking off your floors and walls completely.
Our friendly crew arrives on time, works diligently, and leaves your bathroom cleaner than we found it.
Which means you get a stress-free experience from the very first phone call until the final inspection.
Naturally, saving money is the biggest advantage because replacing an old tub often triggers unexpected plumbing disasters behind the walls.
For example, removing a heavy cast iron fixture can crack your floor tiles and damage the surrounding drywall.
By restoring the existing piece, you bypass all those risky, expensive headaches entirely.
Another major benefit is that our modern coatings offer incredible warmth and supreme cozy comfort when you soak.
We can even customize the color to match your specific style, whether you prefer a classic bright white or a soft almond tone.
This lets you modernize your entire bathroom aesthetic without having to replace your matching toilet or sink.
Additionally, keeping your old tub out of the local landfill is a fantastic way to protect our beautiful environment.
Older fixtures were actually built with incredibly thick, high-quality metal that outperforms cheap modern plastic replacements.
So, keeping that durable vintage piece in place actually preserves the structural integrity of your home.
Initially, our skilled technician will inspect your fixture to identify any hidden rust or structural issues that need extra attention.
Then, we set up our exhaust fans to safely channel any fumes out through the nearest window.
This step keeps the air in your living spaces clean and safe for your kids and pets.
Next, we meticulously mask off your faucet, drain, vanity, and walls with protective paper and tape.
We then apply our proprietary etching compound to create microscopic pores in the old enamel so the new coating sticks forever.
We even fill in those annoying, rusty spots around the drain so they look completely seamless and beautiful again.
Finally, we spray the durable topcoat using specialized high-volume, low-pressure equipment for an incredibly smooth finish.
After we pack up our gear and clean the work area, you just need to let the surface cure for a day.
Soon after, you can peel off the tape and enjoy a luxurious bath in a tub that looks like it came straight from the showroom.
To keep your beautiful new surface looking shiny, you should avoid using harsh abrasive cleaners or scratchy scrubbing pads.
Instead, we recommend using mild dish soap or gentle, non-abrasive bathroom sprays with a soft microfiber cloth.
This simple routine prevents microscopic scratches that can dull the gorgeous gloss over time.
Furthermore, you want to make sure you do not leave wet bath mats sitting inside the tub after your shower.
Trapping moisture underneath a heavy plastic mat can eventually weaken the chemical bond of the coating.
If you prefer a non-slip surface, we can easily apply a permanent slip-resistant texture to the bottom during our process.
Actually, taking care of your restored wash basin is much easier than scrubbing old, porous porcelain.
Our high-gloss finish actively repels soap scum and hard water deposits so cleaning takes only a minute or two.
We always provide a detailed care sheet after we finish the job so you know exactly how to protect your investment.
Perhaps you are wondering about the cost or whether your specific tub is a good candidate for our process.

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.
