Do you need bath re-enamelling or bath resurfacing? If your bath surface is dull, sticky, or has several chips, restoring the entire surface is the best solution. At Surface Doctor Milton, we offer professional bath restoration to make your bath look brand new again, with no disruption to your bathroom. Give me a call now to learn more about how I can restore your bath to its best condition.
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. As part of the re-enamelling process, I repair any chips or scratches to ensure a smooth finish when the new enamel is applied. I offer resurfacing services for cast-iron, metal, and acrylic baths. In just a single day, your bath will be resurfaced, providing a quicker and more economical solution than full replacement. My bath resurfacing services are backed by a 12-month guarantee for peace of mind.
It’s become second nature to replace old items with new ones, but with baths, the process of removal and replacement is far more complicated. Removing an old bath isn’t as simple as it may seem. Removing cast-iron baths involves breaking them down due to their weight, leading to potential 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. Removing your bath means redoing the tiling, refitting taps, and possibly replacing flooring, making it a costly and disruptive process. Restoring your bath instead of replacing it helps cut down on daily construction waste, making it a more sustainable option. Metal baths are usually original features of older houses, and they will last for decades! When a metal bath shows signs of wear, resurfacing is a quick and effective way to restore it to its original condition. Acrylic baths might not last as long as metal ones, but resurfacing them still provides impressive results. 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.
I use commercial-grade materials to resurface your bath, which are not available to the general public. You simply can't just use normal white paint to paint the surface. A key step of successful resurfacing is using an adhesive bonder to bond the new surface to your original bath. The specialized bonder I use provides the strongest and most lasting bond for bath resurfacing. The materials I use have been trusted by me for years, and they provide unmatched results in bath resurfacing.
With my in-situ resurfacing service, you don’t need to remove or transport your bath—everything is done in your bathroom. 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 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. 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 Milton.
1. I begin by masking up the bathroom and surrounding areas to prevent any damage during the procedure.
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. Next, I will apply an additional layer of bonder over the surface. 5. Now it’s time to spray the new enamel surface onto your bath for a flawless finish. 6. I will proceed to buff the surface, giving it a glossy, smooth finish. 7. Give it 24 hours to fully cure, and your bath will be as good as new!
It usually takes 5-7 hours to resurface or re-enamel a bath. Protecting the surrounding areas by masking is an important step that takes time to ensure no overspray damages surfaces. This important step ensures your bathroom remains safe from any accidental overspray. If there are chips or dents in your bath, these need to be filled before resurfacing for the best possible results. If your bath has damage, this extra step can take a bit longer than if no repairs are needed.
I’ve been resurfacing baths for years, so I know exactly how to bring your bath back to life and make it look like new. Re-enamelling your bath will restore it to a like-new appearance and feel.
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. For the last 10 years, I’ve been using the same high-quality materials that deliver reliable, long-lasting results.
What is the expected longevity of a bath re-enamelling?
The new surface of your bath will last for many years. I’ll show you the best cleaning techniques to maintain the shiny and smooth finish of your bath. Rest assured, all of my work is guaranteed for 12 months, offering you complete peace of mind.
