Do you need bath re-enamelling or bath resurfacing? When the surface of your bath looks dull, is sticky, or has multiple chips on it, the best thing to do is to restore the whole surface! Surface Doctor Cheltenham provides a hassle-free bath restoration service that will make your bath look as good as new. Give me a call now to see if I can help you with your bath.

Bath resurfacing, or re-enamelling, is the process of spraying a new enamel surface onto your bath, giving it a fresh look. The process is carried out directly in your bathroom, so no disruption to your bath installation or plumbing. Using a unique enamel paint, it hardens and cures within 24 hours, allowing you to use your bath the next day. I take care of filling in chips, scratches, and other repairs so that the final surface is smooth and flawless once the enamel is applied. I resurface all types of baths including cast-iron, metal, and acrylic baths. The entire procedure takes just one day, making it a quicker and more affordable option than replacing your bath. You can trust my bath resurfacing, which comes with a 12-month guarantee.

What we offer our customers in Cheltenham

If you're looking for bath re-enamelling and resurfacing, I’m the expert you need. With years of experience in hard surface repairs, I’ve resurfaced countless baths across Cheltenham. Alongside bath resurfacing, I provide sink and shower tray resurfacing, chip repairs, scratch fixes, and more. If you want a perfectly resurfaced bath, I’m the expert you can count on!

There are many shapes, sizes, and materials when it comes to bathtubs. Baths face constant exposure to water and harsh chemicals like bleach or CIF, which can cause the surface to become damaged, making dirt stick and be hard to remove. When the glossy finish is stripped, your bath becomes porous, which is why dirt tends to stick to it and is tough to clean. Sometimes you just have a number of chips and scratches in your bath which need to be treated. With bath resurfacing, you can enjoy a bath that looks and feels like new again. The first thing I do is fully mask your bathroom to protect it from overspray while resurfacing your bath in-situ. Masking the bathroom properly ensures no damage occurs during the resurfacing process. 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.

Reasons to restore your bath rather than replace it

In this day and age, it is so easy to buy something new and throw away the old one rather than trying to have it repaired or restored. It’s not easy to dispose of an old bath, especially depending on its material. Removing cast-iron baths involves breaking them down due to their weight, leading to potential damage to the rest of your bathroom. While acrylic baths are much lighter and can be carried out more easily, it will still cause damage to the rest of your bathroom if you have it removed. Removing the bath means you’ll have to replace the tiling, reinstall taps and waste, and maybe even redo the flooring. By restoring your bath, you’re choosing an environmentally responsible option, reducing construction waste. Many older homes feature metal baths that can last a lifetime with the right care. Resurfacing is a simple and effective solution for worn, chipped, or scratched metal baths, making them look new and strong again. Acrylic baths might not last as long as metal ones, but resurfacing them still provides impressive results. Repairing chips and scratches requires color matching, but with full bath resurfacing or re-enamelling, I apply a new white enamel for a flawless finish.

The materials I use to resurface your bath are professional grade that are only available on a commercial basis. You can’t simply apply regular white paint to resurface your bath. A successful resurfacing process involves using an adhesive bonder to securely attach the new surface to the bath. I use a highly specialized bonder that ensures the most durable and lasting results for your bath. The materials I use have been trusted by me for years, and they provide unmatched results in bath resurfacing.

There’s no need to remove your bath or deal with complicated transport, as all of my resurfacing work is done in-situ. My in-situ resurfacing allows me to complete the job within a day, so you’ll be back to normal quickly. Vitreous enamel is a specialized technique in which powdered glass is fused onto your bath at high temperatures in a kiln. This service could never be offered in-situ due to the extreme heat involved and I don't know of many companies that are able to offer this any more for baths.

If your bath is severely chipped or dented, I’ll repair these imperfections first to ensure a flawless surface for resurfacing. The repairs for chips and dents are included in the overall process with no hidden charges. There aren't many baths that I can't resurface, so give me a call today to find out if I can restore your bath for you in Cheltenham.

Our Step-by-Step Restoration Process:

1. I begin by masking up the bathroom and surrounding areas to prevent any damage during the procedure.

2. I will sand off the top surface of the bath to take it back to the metal.

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 it’s time to spray the new enamel surface onto your bath for a flawless finish.

6. The next step is to buff the surface, ensuring it has a smooth, shiny finish.

7. After waiting 24 hours, your bath will be ready to use and look as good as new!

What is the time frame for completing the procedure?

Bath resurfacing in Cheltenham by Surface Doctor

Re-enamelling or resurfacing a bath will take about 5-7 hours to complete. One of the steps that takes some time is masking up and protecting all the surfaces around your bath to make sure no overspray gets on anything. This step is crucial to ensure the surrounding areas remain undamaged. If your bath has chips or dents, they must be filled and repaired before resurfacing to ensure a smooth result. This may add some extra time to the procedure if there are repairs needed.

With years of experience in bath resurfacing, I can restore your bath to its original condition. Re-enamelling your bath will restore it to a like-new appearance and feel.

Choosing to resurface your bath rather than replace it is a cost-effective, time-saving, and environmentally conscious decision. You won't be adding more wastage to your local landfill site when you choose to repair and restore your bath. I can handle any chip repairs, crack repairs, and scratch repairs needed as part of the resurfacing.

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?

After resurfacing, your bath will have a lasting, smooth, and shiny finish for years. I’ll provide guidance on how to clean the surface, keeping it as shiny and smooth as possible. I provide a 12-month guarantee on all of my work, ensuring your satisfaction.
