Replacing a worn tub can tear up tile, plumbing, and your budget. Bathtub painting—also called refinishing or reglazing—delivers the same sparkling look for a fraction of the cost and downtime. CountBricks brings this smart solution to homeowners across Knoxville, TN, pairing proven craft with our industry-leading AI estimate platform. If you want a flawless finish without the demolition dust, read on.
• Cost-effective: Painting runs 60-75 % less than full replacement
• Faster turnaround: Most projects complete in one to two days
• Minimal disruption: No tile removal or plumbing rework needed
• Sustainable: Keeps usable fixtures out of local landfills
With Knoxville’s mix of historic bungalows and new builds, homeowners value solutions that protect both charm and wallet. Bathtub painting delivers exactly that.

1. Surface Audit: We inspect for cracks, rust, and previous coatings.
2. Ventilation & Masking: HVAC vents, fixtures, and tile are protected to control overspray.
3. Deep Clean & Etch: Industrial cleaners remove soap scum; an acid etch opens porcelain pores for adhesion.
4. Chip Repair: Epoxy filler restores chips, scratches, and rust spots.
5. Primer Application: Two coats of high-build epoxy primer seal the substrate.
6. Topcoat Spray: We apply a catalyzed acrylic-urethane in your chosen color.
7. Curing & Polish: Forced-air dryers accelerate cure so you can use the tub within 24 hours.
