Is your bath showing signs of wear and tear, needing re-enamelling or resurfacing? If your bath surface is dull, sticky, or has several chips, restoring the entire surface is the best solution. Surface Doctor Omagh provides a hassle-free bath restoration service that will make your bath look as good as new. Get in touch now to see how I can help restore your bath.
Bath re-enamelling, or resurfacing, involves spraying a fresh surface onto your bath, restoring its original appearance. This is all done in your bathroom so there is no messing with your bath installation or anything like that. The enamel I apply fully cures within 24 hours, so your bath will be ready to use by the next day. When I re-enamel a bath, as part of the process I will fill in any chip repairs, scratch repairs, etc., that need to be done so that when the new enamel is sprayed on, the surface will be smooth again. My resurfacing service is suitable 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. My bath resurfacing is guaranteed for 12 months.
These days, it’s common to discard old items and buy new ones, but with baths, it’s not always that simple. When it comes to baths, getting rid of the old one isn’t a quick or easy task. Cast-iron baths are extremely heavy and must be broken apart for removal, which often results in damage to your bathroom. Even with lighter acrylic baths, removal can lead to damage to the rest of 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. Though acrylic baths have a shorter lifespan than metal baths, resurfacing restores them to a like-new condition. 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 only use top-grade materials, exclusively available for commercial use, to resurface your bath. Resurfacing a bath requires more than just white paint—it involves specific materials designed for the task. A key step of successful resurfacing is using an adhesive bonder to bond the new surface to your original bath. I have sourced a very specialised bonder which creates the most lasting results possible. Having used my chosen materials for years, I’m confident they provide the best, most durable resurfacing results.
All resurfacing is done directly in your bathroom, so you won’t have to remove your bath and deal with the hassle of transport and reinstallation. 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. This is all included in the process and there won't be any extra charges for this. I can resurface most baths, so contact me today to see if I can restore yours in Omagh.
1. First, I will mask the bathroom and surrounding areas to ensure they are fully protected during the process.
2. The next step is to sand off the bath’s top surface, exposing the metal for resurfacing. 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’ll then proceed to add another layer of bonder to ensure a strong surface bond. 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!
On average, re-enamelling or resurfacing your bath will take 5-7 hours. 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. Masking and protection are vital to ensure no damage occurs to your bathroom. If your bath has chips or dents, they must be filled and repaired before resurfacing to ensure a smooth result. This can sometimes make the process take a bit longer than if there was no damage to fill.
With years of experience in bath resurfacing, I can restore your bath to its original condition. Re-enamelling will give your bath a fresh, new look and feel, making it look like new again.
Resurfacing your bath instead of replacing it can save you money and time, and it’s a more eco-friendly choice. You won't be adding more wastage to your local landfill site when you choose to repair and restore your bath. I repair chips, cracks, and scratches as part of the resurfacing process, ensuring a smooth finish.
I use the highest quality materials available, so don't think you can get the same result as me by painting your bath yourself with something from your local DIY shop. 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.
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. All of my work is guaranteed for 12 months for your peace of mind.
