Are you looking for bath re-enamelling or resurfacing? If your bath surface is dull, sticky, or has several chips, restoring the entire surface is the best solution. Here at Surface Doctor Holyport, I can restore your bath for you so it looks brand new again without causing any disruption to your bathroom. Give me a call now to see if I can help you with your bath.
With bath re-enamelling (or resurfacing), we apply a new surface to your bath, making it look brand new once again. You won’t have to worry about altering your bath installation as the process is done in your bathroom. Using a unique enamel paint, it hardens and cures within 24 hours, allowing you to use your bath the next day. During re-enamelling, I’ll fix any chips or scratches so the new enamel will create a smooth, perfect surface. I offer resurfacing services for cast-iron, metal, and acrylic baths. It only takes a day to do this procedure, which is much faster and cheaper than replacing your bath. I stand behind my bath resurfacing work with a 12-month guarantee.
In today’s consumer culture, we often choose to replace over repair, but when it comes to baths, it’s not so easy. With baths, it's actually not that easy to get rid of the old one. Cast-iron baths are extremely heavy and must be broken apart for removal, which often results in damage to your bathroom. Acrylic baths are lighter, making removal easier, but still cause damage to your bathroom when removed. Once removed, you’ll need to re-tile around the bath, refit taps and drains, and possibly replace flooring. Restoring your bath is the most eco-friendly choice, preventing the additional waste generated from removing and replacing it. Metal baths are usually original features of older houses, and they will last for decades! A quick resurfacing restores dull, chipped, or scratched metal baths to look brand new, providing a durable finish. Acrylic baths may not last as long as metal baths, but they can still be resurfaced to great effect. With individual repairs, I match the paint to your bath’s surface, but when resurfacing or re-enamelling, I apply a brilliant white enamel to the whole surface.
I only use top-grade materials, exclusively available for commercial use, to resurface your bath. Regular paint won’t do the job for bath resurfacing; the right materials are essential for success. A key step of successful resurfacing is using an adhesive bonder to bond the new surface to your 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.
I complete all resurfacing work in-situ, so there’s no need to remove and transport your bath for repair. My in-situ resurfacing allows me to complete the job within a day, so you’ll be back to normal quickly. Vitreous enamel involves coating your bath in powdered glass and fusing it onto the surface using a kiln at high temperatures. I’m not aware of many companies still offering this in-situ, as the extreme heat needed makes it impossible.
If your bath has significant chips or dents, I’ll handle the repairs to make sure the surface is even and smooth before the resurfacing process. Repairs to chips and dents are included in the resurfacing service with no additional cost. I can resurface most baths, so contact me today to see if I can restore yours in Holyport.
1. To prepare for the procedure, I will thoroughly mask the bathroom and all areas around your bath.
2. I’ll sand down the top surface of your bath, stripping it back to the metal. 3. After applying our special bonder, I will fill in any holes, chips, or cracks that need attention. 4. Following this, I will apply an extra layer of bonder to strengthen the surface. 5. I will now spray the new enamel surface onto your bath. 6. After spraying, I’ll buff the enamel to achieve a flawless shine. 7. Give it 24 hours to fully cure, and your bath will be as good as new!
The entire bath re-enamelling or resurfacing process takes around 5-7 hours. Protecting the surrounding areas by masking is an important step that takes time to ensure no overspray damages surfaces. This is a very important part of the procedure. Before spraying the new enamel, any chips and dents need to be repaired to ensure a flawless finish. Repairing any chips and dents can take additional time, but ensures a better outcome.
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.
Choosing to resurface your bath rather than replace it is a cost-effective, time-saving, and environmentally conscious decision. Restoring your bath helps minimize environmental impact by preventing additional waste in landfills. I address all chip, crack, and scratch repairs as part of the bath resurfacing process.
Don’t expect to achieve the same outcome by using DIY materials from your local shop; I use only the best materials for the job. 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.
