What we offer our customers in Chester

I'm here to help with all of your bath re-enamelling and bath resurfacing needs. I have resurfaced hundreds of baths throughout my career working in the hard surface repair industry in Chester. Alongside bath resurfacing, I provide sink and shower tray resurfacing, chip repairs, scratch fixes, and more. For top-quality bath resurfacing, I’m your go-to professional!

There are many shapes, sizes, and materials when it comes to bathtubs. 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. 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. Bath resurfacing restores your bath to its original condition, making it look and feel brand new. I resurface your bath on-site, and the first thing I’ll do is mask your bathroom to prevent any overspray from causing damage. Proper masking is vital to protect your bathroom from any unwanted damage. It takes around 5-7 hours to re-enamel your bath, and after that, you must leave it for 24 hours for the surface to cure completely.

Why bath restoration is a smarter choice than replacement

In today’s world, replacing items with new ones is easy, but when it comes to baths, it’s not as straightforward. Getting rid of an old bath is not as straightforward as many people think. Cast-iron baths weigh a ton and have to be smashed apart to be able to carry the pieces out of your house, and this obviously causes damage to the rest of your bathroom. Although acrylic baths are easier to remove, the process still causes damage to surrounding areas in your bathroom. You'll have to re-do the tiling around the bath, have the taps and waste re-fitted, and potentially get new flooring done. When you choose to restore your bath you are choosing the most environmentally friendly option as you won't be contributing to the vast amount of construction waste that gets produced on a daily basis. Many older homes feature metal baths that can last a lifetime with the right care. A quick resurfacing restores dull, chipped, or scratched metal baths to look brand new, providing a durable finish. While acrylic baths have a shorter lifespan than metal baths, resurfacing them gives great 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.

I use commercial-grade materials to resurface your bath, which are not available to the general public. Regular paint won’t do the job for bath resurfacing; the right materials are essential for success. One of the crucial steps for effective resurfacing is applying an adhesive bonder to attach the new surface to your original bath. The bonder I use is specifically sourced to guarantee the best, long-lasting outcomes. Having used my chosen materials for years, I’m confident they provide the best, most durable resurfacing results.

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. This way there is minimal disruption to you as I will only need to be working in your bathroom for a day before I'm out of your hair again. You may be familiar with Vitreous enamel, a specialized process where powdered glass is fused to the bath’s surface in a high-temperature kiln. Due to the extreme heat required, this service can’t be done in-situ, and few companies offer it these days.

When your bath is badly chipped or dented, I’ll repair these areas first to ensure a smooth and even surface before resurfacing. Repairs to chips and dents are included in the resurfacing service with no additional cost. 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 Chester.

The Restoration Process, Step by Step:

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

2. Step 2: I will carefully sand off the top layer of the bath, revealing the underlying metal surface.

3. I then will apply a layer of our special bonder and then fill in any holes, chips, cracks, etc.

4. Following this, I will apply an extra layer of bonder to strengthen the surface.

5. At this stage, I will apply a new enamel coating to your bath.

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

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?

It usually takes 5-7 hours to resurface or re-enamel a bath. A significant portion of the time is spent masking and protecting all surrounding surfaces to prevent overspray. Masking and protection are vital to ensure no damage occurs to your bathroom. Before spraying the new enamel, any chips and dents need to be repaired to ensure a flawless finish. If your bath has damage, this extra step can take a bit longer than if no repairs are needed.

I have been resurfacing baths for many years, so I will be able to get your bath looking brand new again! Once your bath is re-enamelled, it will look and feel just like a new one.

Having your bath resurfaced instead of replacing it will save you money, time, and is environmentally friendly. Resurfacing your bath helps keep waste out of landfills, offering an eco-friendly alternative to replacement. As part of the resurfacing process, I’ll take care of any chips, cracks, or scratches.

The materials I use are of the highest quality, which you won’t find at your local DIY store for DIY bath painting. I have been using the same materials for the last 10 years, so I know that they work every time and will produce a lasting result.

What is the expected longevity of a bath re-enamelling?

After resurfacing, your bath will have a lasting, smooth, and shiny finish for years. I will go over with you the best way to clean it to also ensure the surface stays as shiny and smooth as possible. All of my work is guaranteed for 12 months for your peace of mind.
