Bathtub reglazing cost calculator

A real number in thirty seconds. No email gate, no lead-form redirect, no zip-code-only results. Seven inputs in six groups (tub type, material, condition, region, approach and two add-ons), with comparisons against a full replacement and a Bath Fitter style liner so you can see what you save.

A budgeting model: a base price scaled by tub size, material and regional multipliers, plus condition repairs and add-ons. Not a survey of actual jobs. Get three local quotes before booking.

What the calculator factors in

Tub material
Porcelain over steel, cast iron, acrylic, fiberglass
Tub type
Standard alcove, tub + tile surround, tub + shower combo, clawfoot / freestanding, garden / soaker
Tub condition
Light staining, minor chips, deep stains, cracks
Region
Six US zones with multipliers
Approach
Professional reglaze or DIY kit
Add-ons
Custom colour ($75), non-slip coating ($60)

How the math works

Base price by approach (pro $460, DIY $70) is multiplied by the tub-type size factor, the material factor, and the regional multiplier. On a professional job, condition adds a flat repair cost ($0 to $150); the DIY path adds none. Custom colour and non-slip are flat add-ons. The output range applies a -15% / +20% band around the mid-point to reflect normal contractor variance. The replacement and liner comparisons scale by the same tub-size and regional multipliers.

The figures above are model-derived from industry-typical ranges, not a survey of actual jobs. The output is a budgeting estimate, not a binding quote. Always get three local quotes before booking.
