Restored cast iron bath - Surface Doctor Broadstairs Expert bath enamel restoration service in Broadstairs

Is your bath in need of re-enamelling or resurfacing? If your bath looks worn, sticky, or chipped, a full restoration is the best approach. At Surface Doctor Broadstairs, we specialize in restoring your bath to its original condition, with minimal disruption to your bathroom. Give me a call now to learn more about how I can restore your bath to its best condition.

Bath re-enamelling, also known as bath resurfacing, is where a new surface is sprayed onto your bath so your bath looks brand new again. The process is carried out directly in your bathroom, so no disruption to your bath installation or plumbing. This high-quality enamel paint hardens in just 24 hours, so you can enjoy your bath again the very next day. During re-enamelling, I’ll fix any chips or scratches so the new enamel will create a smooth, perfect surface. My resurfacing service is suitable for cast-iron, metal, and acrylic baths. This quick and cost-effective procedure only takes a day, saving you both time and money compared to a full bath replacement. My bath resurfacing is guaranteed for 12 months.

Services we offer to customers in Broadstairs

If you're looking for bath re-enamelling and resurfacing, I’m the expert you need. I have resurfaced hundreds of baths throughout my career working in the hard surface repair industry in Broadstairs. In addition to bath resurfacing, I also offer sink resurfacing, shower tray resurfacing, and repairs for chips, scratches, and other hard surface issues. For expert bath resurfacing, I’m the right choice!

Bathtubs vary greatly in terms of shape, size, and material. Due to constant exposure to water and harsh cleaning chemicals like bleach and CIF, bathtubs can suffer surface damage, causing dirt to cling and become difficult to remove. The top shiny layer wears away, leaving the bath porous and allowing dirt to stick to it more effectively. If your bath has chips or scratches, resurfacing is the best solution to treat them. Bath resurfacing restores your bath to its original condition, making it look and feel brand new. Since I resurface your bath in-situ, the first step is to fully mask up your bathroom to protect it from overspray. This is an important step to make sure no damage is caused to your bathroom. The process takes 5-7 hours to complete, after which the new enamel needs 24 hours to harden fully before your bath is ready for use.

Why you should restore your bath instead of replacing it

In today’s world, replacing items with new ones is easy, but when it comes to baths, it’s not as straightforward. Removing an old bath isn’t as simple as it may seem. Cast-iron baths are so heavy that they have to be smashed to pieces before being carried out, which can lead to damage throughout your bathroom. Acrylic baths are lighter and easier to move, but removing them can still damage your bathroom. Removing your bath means redoing the tiling, refitting taps, and possibly replacing flooring, making it a costly and disruptive process. Restoring your bath is the most eco-friendly choice, preventing the additional waste generated from removing and replacing it. Metal baths are often classic features of older homes and can last for many decades. Resurfacing is a simple and effective solution for worn, chipped, or scratched metal baths, making them look new and strong again. With acrylic baths, their lifespan is not as long as traditional metal baths but they are still able to be resurfaced to a great result. When fixing chips and scratches, I match the color to your bath’s surface, but for re-enamelling or resurfacing, I use a new white enamel finish.

For resurfacing your bath, I rely on high-quality, professional materials that are reserved for commercial use. Regular paint won’t do the job for bath resurfacing; the right materials are essential for success. To ensure proper resurfacing, I use an adhesive bonder that bonds the new surface firmly to the original bath. The bonder I use is specifically sourced to guarantee the best, long-lasting outcomes. The materials I use have been trusted by me for years, and they provide unmatched results in bath resurfacing.

All of my resurfacing work is done in-situ, so you will never have to remove your bath and transport it to me, then have it delivered back and installed again. I complete all resurfacing in just one day in your bathroom, ensuring minimal disruption for you. You may have heard of Vitreous enamel - this is a specialised procedure where the bath is coated in a powdered glass material and then this is fused onto the surface of your bath in a large kiln at very high temperatures. Due to the high temperatures involved, vitreous enamel can’t be performed in-situ, and it’s becoming increasingly rare among companies.

When your bath is badly chipped or dented, I’ll repair these areas first to ensure a smooth and even surface before resurfacing. The repairs for chips and dents are included in the overall process with no hidden charges. I can resurface most baths, so contact me today to see if I can restore yours in Broadstairs.

How the Restoration Process Works, Step by Step:

1. First, I will mask the bathroom and surrounding areas to ensure they are fully protected during the process.

2. Next, I will sand the bath’s surface to remove the old finish and expose the metal underneath.

3. I will then apply a layer of our specialized bonder and carefully fill in any chips, cracks, or holes in the bath.

4. I will then apply another layer of bonder over this.

5. Now I will spray on the new enamel surface to your bath.

6. Next, I’ll buff the surface to a high shine.

7. Now wait 24 hours before using your bath again and it will look brand new!

How long does the procedure take?

Typically, re-enamelling or resurfacing a bath takes between 5 and 7 hours. The masking process to protect surrounding areas from overspray is one of the steps that can take a bit of time. This is a very important part of the procedure. If your bath has lots of chips and dents then these also have to be filled in and repaired before the new enamel surface is sprayed on as you won't get a good result if the bath isn't repaired first. If your bath has damage, this extra step can take a bit longer than if no repairs are needed.

My years of experience in bath resurfacing mean I can get your bath looking like it’s just been installed. Once your bath is re-enamelled, it will look and feel just like a new one.

Resurfacing your bath saves you money, reduces waste, and is a time-efficient, environmentally friendly option. You won't be adding more wastage to your local landfill site when you choose to repair and restore your bath. I address all chip, crack, and scratch repairs as part of the bath resurfacing process.

I use premium materials that ensure a flawless finish, something you can’t replicate with DIY products from a local store. I’ve been working with these materials for over 10 years, ensuring consistent and durable outcomes every time.

How long does a re-enamelled bath last?
