Caulk is the seal at the joint where the tub meets the wall — and it’s usually the first thing to crack, peel, or grow mold. We redo that joint as part of every reglazing, in the same visit, and our pour-on method changes how long the new seal holds.

An exposed caulk bead lives a hard life. Two things work against it — everything around the tub, and the caulk material itself.
It sits in standing water after every shower, day after day.
Cleaning products and scrubbing wear on the bead on top of that.
It rides along as the building settles and vibrates.
Holds up longer than acrylic — but it still gives out, just in a different way:
Once there is even a small gap, water wicks in behind the caulk. That is when the damage spreads:
It is also why the same joint gets re-caulked again and again — each new bead is exposed to everything that destroyed the previous one.
No exposed caulk line — nothing to yellow, peel, or collect mold at the edge of the tub
The sealant stays flexible, so it absorbs the small movements of the tub and the building instead of cracking
The corner wipes clean like the rest of the coated tub — no special scrubbing, no bleach pens
It is done in the same visit as your reglazing, with no separate appointment
Caulking is included free with every bathtub reglazing. If the gap between your tub and the wall is wider than standard, it may need extra caulk to fill before coating — that starts at $35, and we will let you know before any work begins. Bathtub reglazing starts at $475, tax included — see our pricing page for details.
Because it is exposed. A caulk bead sits in water after every shower and takes cleaners and scrubbing on top of that. Acrylic caulk dries out and cracks; silicone peels at the edges and holds the soap film that mold grows on. Once a gap opens, water gets behind it and the problem spreads into the wall.
The order of work. We remove the old caulk completely, seal the joint with a flexible, fast-curing sealant, and then cover it with our pour-on coating. The sealant ends up under the finish — protected from water and cleaning — and the corner looks like a clean 90° angle instead of a silicone bead.
Yes — it is included free with every bathtub reglazing. If the gap between the tub and the wall is unusually wide, filling it may require extra caulk, which starts at $25. We will confirm that with you before starting.
No — we restore bathtubs, and caulking is built into that job. The seal is protected by the coating that goes over it, so it is not something we install on its own. Many companies charge extra for caulking; with us it is included free in every reglazing. If your finish is in good shape and only the caulk has failed, a standard re-caulk is a simple handyman job — but if the tub surface is showing wear too, reglazing fixes both in one visit.
Caulking happens during the same visit as your reglazing. The whole job takes about 3–4 hours on site, and the tub is ready to use in 24 hours.

Thank you, Kathleen! A fresh tub deserves a clean bathroom and clean caulk lines to go with it — that's just part of doing the job right. So glad you're happy with how it turned out. Enjoy it!

Thank you, Raymond! Glad you noticed the pour-on method — no spray means almost no fumes, and that's exactly why I work this way. Three hours, cleaned up, and a tub that looks brand new is the goal on every job. Enjoy it, and thanks for the recommendation!

Thank you, Ricky! Coming back to sort out a small detail is just part of standing behind the work — we'd rather make the trip than leave you with anything less than right. Glad the new strainer finished it off nicely. Enjoy the tub!

Thank you, Paul! Glad you mentioned the joints — fresh caulking makes a huge difference next to a new finish, and it's often the detail that gets overlooked. Happy the whole bathroom came together for you. Enjoy the tub!

This video shows selected moments from a bathtub reglazing project in Brooklyn using high-quality liquid acrylic. It’s not the full restoration process, but rather a few highlights — including the final glossy result.
At the end, we run a coin across the surface to test the durability of the finish. No scratches. No marks. Just a tough, long-lasting coating.
If you’re considering restoring your tub in NYC — this is what quality results look like.
Serving all of Brooklyn and nearby areas.

We remove the old caulk, seal the joint with a flexible sealant, and cover it with our pour-on coating. There is no exposed caulk line to peel or grow mold — just a clean, easy-to-wipe corner where the tub meets the wall.
One method — pour-on, self-leveling coating — applied to the tubs New York apartments actually have.
