Do you need bath re-enamelling or bath resurfacing? When you notice your bath is looking dull, sticky, or has chips, resurfacing the entire surface is recommended. Surface Doctor Bampton provides a hassle-free bath restoration service that will make your bath look as good as new. 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. This is all done in your bathroom so there is no messing with your bath installation or anything like that. The special enamel I use hardens and cures in 24 hours, ensuring your bath is ready for use the following day. During re-enamelling, I’ll fix any chips or scratches so the new enamel will create a smooth, perfect surface. I resurface all types of baths including 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 services are backed by a 12-month guarantee for peace of mind.
In today’s world, replacing items with new ones is easy, but when it comes to baths, it’s not as straightforward. It’s not easy to dispose of an old bath, especially depending on its material. 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. Once removed, you’ll need to re-tile around the bath, refit taps and drains, and possibly replace flooring. 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. Metal baths are a lasting feature of older homes, providing durability for decades. When a metal bath shows signs of wear, resurfacing is a quick and effective way to restore it to its original condition. 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. 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 only use top-grade materials, exclusively available for commercial use, to resurface your bath. You simply can't just use normal white paint to paint the surface. A successful resurfacing process involves using an adhesive bonder to securely attach the new surface to the bath. The specialized bonder I use provides the strongest and most lasting bond for bath resurfacing. I’ve trusted my preferred materials for years, knowing they consistently produce excellent, high-quality repairs.
With my in-situ resurfacing service, you don’t need to remove or transport your bath—everything is done in your bathroom. My in-situ resurfacing allows me to complete the job within a day, so you’ll be back to normal quickly. 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. This service could never be offered in-situ due to the extreme heat involved and I don't know of many companies that are able to offer this any more for baths.
If your bath is badly chipped and dented, I will repair this first to ensure the surface is smooth and flat before resurfacing it. 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 Bampton.
1. I’ll carefully mask the bathroom and surrounding areas to protect them during the resurfacing process.
2. The next step is to sand off the bath’s top surface, exposing the metal for resurfacing. 3. Next, I will apply a layer of our unique bonder and fill in any chips, holes, cracks, or other imperfections. 4. I’ll then proceed to add another layer of bonder to ensure a strong surface bond. 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. Allow 24 hours for the surface to cure before using your bath, and it will look brand new!
On average, re-enamelling or resurfacing your bath will take 5-7 hours. A significant portion of the time is spent masking and protecting all surrounding surfaces to prevent overspray. This is a very important part of the procedure. Any chips or dents in your bath must be repaired first, as the new enamel surface won’t adhere properly if these aren’t fixed. This can sometimes make the process take a bit longer than if there was no damage to fill.
My years of experience in bath resurfacing mean I can get your bath looking like it’s just been installed. After having your bath re-enamelled, it will look brand new and feel completely refreshed.
Resurfacing your bath saves you money, reduces waste, and is a time-efficient, environmentally friendly option. Choosing to repair and restore your bath means you're contributing less to landfill waste. 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.
