Is your bath in need of re-enamelling or resurfacing? If your bath looks worn, sticky, or chipped, a full restoration is the best approach. At Surface Doctor Bromsgrove, we offer professional bath restoration to make your bath look brand new again, with no disruption to your bathroom. Get in touch now to see how I can help restore your bath.
With bath re-enamelling (or resurfacing), we apply a new surface to your bath, making it look brand new once again. No need to change your bath installation, as all work is completed directly in your bathroom. I use a special enamel paint which hardens and fully cures within 24 hours so you can use your bath again 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. Whether it's a cast-iron, metal, or acrylic bath, I can restore it to a like-new condition. 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.
In this day and age, it is so easy to buy something new and throw away the old one rather than trying to have it repaired or restored. When it comes to baths, getting rid of the old one isn’t a quick or easy task. Cast-iron baths weigh a ton and have to be smashed apart to be able to carry the pieces out of your house, and this obviously causes damage to the rest of your bathroom. While acrylic baths are much lighter and can be carried out more easily, it will still cause damage to the rest of your bathroom if you have it removed. Removing the bath means you’ll have to replace the tiling, reinstall taps and waste, and maybe even redo the 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. 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.
The materials I use for bath resurfacing are professional-grade, specifically sourced for commercial applications. 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. For years, I’ve been using these proven materials, which consistently create the highest standard of bath repairs.
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 is a unique process where powdered glass is fused to the surface of the bath at extremely high temperatures in a 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. There are no extra charges for this step; it’s all part of the resurfacing process. There are very few baths that I can’t resurface—call me today to find out if I can restore your bath in Bromsgrove.
1. I begin by masking up the bathroom and surrounding areas to prevent any damage during the procedure.
2. I will sand off the top surface of the bath to take it back to the metal. 3. Once the bonder is applied, I’ll proceed to fill any chips, cracks, or holes in the surface. 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. The next step is to buff the surface, ensuring it has a smooth, shiny finish. 7. Allow 24 hours for the surface to cure before using your bath, and it will look brand new!
Typically, re-enamelling or resurfacing a bath takes between 5 and 7 hours. The masking process to protect surrounding areas from overspray is one of the steps that can take a bit of time. This important step ensures your bathroom remains safe from any accidental overspray. If your bath has chips or dents, they must be filled and repaired before resurfacing to ensure a smooth result. This may add some extra time to the procedure if there are repairs 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. After having your bath re-enamelled, it will look brand new and feel completely refreshed.
Opting for bath resurfacing over replacement saves both time and money, while being better for the environment. Choosing to repair and restore your bath means you're contributing less to landfill waste. Any chips, cracks, or scratches will be repaired during the resurfacing process to ensure a flawless result.
I use top-quality materials that guarantee superior results, unlike anything you can achieve with DIY products from a local store. Having used these materials for the last decade, I can confidently say they consistently produce the best, lasting results.
