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. Surface Doctor Crewkerne 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. The process is carried out directly in your bathroom, so no disruption to your bath installation or plumbing. 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. 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. I stand behind my bath resurfacing work with a 12-month guarantee.
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. Removing an old bath isn’t as simple as it may seem. Cast-iron baths are extremely heavy and must be broken apart for removal, which often results in damage to your bathroom. Although acrylic baths are easier to remove, the process still causes damage to surrounding areas in your bathroom. Removing the bath means you’ll have to replace the tiling, reinstall taps and waste, and maybe even redo the flooring. 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 may not last as long as metal baths, but they can still be resurfaced to great effect. 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 successful resurfacing process involves using an adhesive bonder to securely attach the new surface to the bath. The bonder I use is specifically sourced to guarantee the best, long-lasting outcomes. 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. Since I work in-situ, the entire resurfacing process is completed in just one day, causing minimal disruption to your day-to-day life. 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.
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. Most baths are suitable for resurfacing, so give me a call today to learn if I can restore your bath in Crewkerne.
1. I’ll carefully mask the bathroom and surrounding areas to protect them during the resurfacing process.
2. I’ll sand down the top surface of your bath, stripping 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. After that, I will apply another layer of bonder on top. 5. Now I will spray on the new enamel surface to your bath. 6. I will then buff this down to make it super shiny. 7. You’ll need to wait 24 hours before using your bath, and it will be as good as new!
Re-enamelling or resurfacing a bath will take about 5-7 hours to complete. 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. If your bath has lots of chips and dents then these also have to be filled in and repaired before the new enamel surface is sprayed on as you won't get a good result if the bath isn't repaired first. 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.
Having your bath resurfaced instead of replacing it will save you money, time, and is environmentally friendly. Choosing to repair and restore your bath means you're contributing less to landfill waste. I address all chip, crack, and scratch repairs as part of the bath resurfacing process.
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.
What’s the lifespan of a bath re-enamelling?
Once resurfaced, your bath’s new surface will remain in great condition for years. I will go over with you the best way to clean it to also ensure the surface stays as shiny and smooth as possible. Every job I do is backed by a 12-month guarantee for your peace of mind.
