Are you looking for bath re-enamelling or resurfacing? If your bath looks worn, sticky, or chipped, a full restoration is the best approach. At Surface Doctor Evesham, 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.
Bath re-enamelling, also known as bath resurfacing, is where a new surface is sprayed onto your bath so your bath looks brand new again. No need to change your bath installation, as all work is completed directly in your bathroom. This high-quality enamel paint hardens in just 24 hours, so you can enjoy your bath again the very 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. I offer resurfacing services for cast-iron, metal, and acrylic baths. The entire procedure takes just one day, making it a quicker and more affordable option than replacing your bath. My bath resurfacing is guaranteed for 12 months.
In today’s world, replacing items with new ones is easy, but when it comes to baths, it’s not as straightforward. When it comes to baths, getting rid of the old one isn’t a quick or easy task. Removing cast-iron baths involves breaking them down due to their weight, leading to potential damage to the rest of your bathroom. Acrylic baths are lighter and easier to move, but removing them can still damage your bathroom. After removal, redoing the tiling, reinstalling taps and drains, and potentially replacing the flooring are necessary. 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. When the surface of metal baths gets worn, chipped, or scratched, resurfacing makes them look brand new again, restoring strength and beauty. 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. Regular paint won’t do the job for bath resurfacing; the right materials are essential for success. The use of an adhesive bonder is critical in resurfacing to create a solid bond between the new layer and the original bath. The specialized bonder I use provides the strongest and most lasting bond for bath resurfacing. I have been using my preferred materials for many years so I know that they work and create the highest standard of repairs.
With my in-situ resurfacing service, you don’t need to remove or transport your bath—everything is done in your bathroom. 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 have heard of Vitreous enamel - this is a specialised procedure where the bath is coated in a powdered glass material and then this is fused onto the surface of your bath in a large kiln at very high temperatures. 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.
Before resurfacing, I will first fix any chips and dents to ensure the surface is flat and smooth. Repairs to chips and dents are included in the resurfacing service with no additional cost. With only a few exceptions, I can resurface almost any bath—call me today to find out if I can restore yours in Evesham.
1. I begin by masking up the bathroom and surrounding areas to prevent any damage during the procedure.
2. The next step is to sand off the bath’s top surface, exposing the metal for resurfacing. 3. I then will apply a layer of our special bonder and then fill in any holes, chips, cracks, etc. 4. Next, I will apply an additional layer of bonder over the surface. 5. I will now spray the new enamel surface onto your bath. 6. I will then buff this down to make it super shiny. 7. Allow 24 hours for the surface to cure before using your bath, and it will look brand new!
Re-enamelling or resurfacing a bath will take about 5-7 hours to complete. A significant portion of the time is spent masking and protecting all surrounding surfaces to prevent overspray. It’s essential to protect surrounding surfaces, as overspray could cause damage. 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.
Having resurfaced baths for many years, I have the expertise to make your bath look brand new again. Re-enamelling will give your bath a fresh, new look and feel, making it look like new again.
Resurfacing your bath saves you money, reduces waste, and is a time-efficient, environmentally friendly option.
