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. At Surface Doctor Sandhurst, we specialize in restoring your bath to its original condition, with minimal 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. 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. My resurfacing service is suitable for cast-iron, metal, and acrylic baths. This quick and cost-effective procedure only takes a day, saving you both time and money compared to a full bath replacement. You can trust my bath resurfacing, which comes with a 12-month guarantee.
These days, it’s common to discard old items and buy new ones, but with baths, it’s not always that simple. 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. 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. Opting to restore your bath helps you avoid contributing to the large amount of construction waste produced every day. Metal baths are usually original features of older houses, and they will last for decades! When the surface of metal baths gets worn, chipped, or scratched, resurfacing makes them look brand new again, restoring strength and beauty. With acrylic baths, their lifespan is not as long as traditional metal baths but they are still able to be resurfaced to a great result. 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.
The materials I use for bath resurfacing are professional-grade, specifically sourced for commercial applications. Regular paint won’t do the job for bath resurfacing; the right materials are essential for success. A successful resurfacing process involves using an adhesive bonder to securely attach the new surface to the bath. I have sourced a very specialised bonder which creates the most lasting results possible. I have been using my preferred materials for many years so I know that they work and create the highest standard of repairs.
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. Vitreous enamel involves coating your bath in powdered glass and fusing it onto the surface using a kiln at high temperatures. Due to the extreme heat required, this service can’t be done in-situ, and few companies offer it these days.
If your bath is severely chipped or dented, I’ll repair these imperfections first to ensure a flawless surface for resurfacing. You won’t incur extra costs for this step—it’s included in the resurfacing service. 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 Sandhurst.
1. I will mask up the bathroom and areas surrounding your bath thoroughly to prepare them for the procedure.
2. I will sand off the top surface of the bath to take it back to the metal. 3. After applying our special bonder, I will fill in any holes, chips, or cracks that need attention. 4. After that, I will apply another layer of bonder on top. 5. Now it’s time to spray the new enamel surface onto your bath for a flawless finish. 6. After spraying, I’ll buff the enamel to achieve a flawless shine. 7. You’ll need to wait 24 hours before using your bath, and it will be as good as new!
On average, re-enamelling or resurfacing your bath will take 5-7 hours. A key part of the procedure is masking the bathroom to protect surfaces from overspray, which does take some time. This step is crucial to ensure the surrounding areas remain undamaged. 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.
With years of experience in bath resurfacing, I can restore your bath to its original condition. After having your bath re-enamelled, it will look brand new and feel completely refreshed.
