Professional Bath Resurfacing and Re-enamelling in Guildford

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. At Surface Doctor Guildford, 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. The re-enamelling is performed right in your bathroom, avoiding any need to alter your bath setup. The enamel I apply fully cures within 24 hours, so your bath will be ready to use by the next 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. The entire procedure takes just one day, making it a quicker and more affordable option than replacing your bath. I stand behind my bath resurfacing work with a 12-month guarantee.

What we provide to our clients in Guildford

I’m here to assist with all your bath resurfacing and re-enamelling requirements. In my career in the hard surface repair industry in Guildford, I’ve worked on hundreds of bath resurfacing projects. In addition to bath resurfacing, I also offer sink resurfacing, shower tray resurfacing, and repairs for chips, scratches, and other hard surface issues. If you want a perfectly resurfaced bath, I’m the expert you can count on!

Bathtubs vary greatly in terms of shape, size, and material. Baths face constant exposure to water and harsh chemicals like bleach or CIF, which can cause the surface to become damaged, making dirt stick and be hard to remove. This happens when the top shiny layer has been removed so the bath becomes porous, hence the dirt sticking to it. Your bath may develop chips and scratches that need attention. Bath resurfacing will ensure that your bath looks and feels brand new again. Before starting the bath resurfacing, I ensure your bathroom is completely masked to avoid any overspray while working in-situ. Masking the bathroom properly ensures no damage occurs during the resurfacing process. It will take me 5-7 hours to re-enamel your bath for you, and then you'll have to leave it for 24 hours before using it again so the new surface can harden and fully cure.

The benefits of restoring your bath over replacing it

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. 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. Acrylic baths are lighter, making removal easier, but still cause damage to your bathroom when removed. After removal, redoing the tiling, reinstalling taps and drains, and potentially replacing the flooring are necessary. Restoring your bath instead of replacing it helps cut down on daily construction waste, making it a more sustainable option. Traditional metal baths are common in older houses and can last for decades with proper maintenance. When their surface becomes dull and tired, chipped, scratched, etc, it is so easy to resurface them so they look brand new again and you'll have a perfect and strong bath in no time. While acrylic baths have a shorter lifespan than metal baths, resurfacing them gives great results. 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 can’t simply apply regular white paint to resurface your bath. One of the crucial steps for effective resurfacing is applying an adhesive bonder to attach the new surface to your original bath. I’ve sourced a unique bonder that ensures the resurfaced surface lasts longer and stays durable. The materials I use have been trusted by me for years, and they provide unmatched results in bath resurfacing.

I complete all resurfacing work in-situ, so there’s no need to remove and transport your bath for repair. By working in-situ, I minimize disruption to you—only needing one day of work in your bathroom before I’m done. 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. Repairs to chips and dents are included in the resurfacing service with no additional cost. There are very few baths that I can’t resurface—call me today to find out if I can restore your bath in Guildford.

Our Step-by-Step Restoration Process:

1. I begin by masking up the bathroom and surrounding areas to prevent any damage during the procedure.

2. Next, I will sand the bath’s surface to remove the old finish and expose the metal underneath.

3. I will then apply a layer of our specialized bonder and carefully fill in any chips, cracks, or holes in the bath.

4. Following this, I will apply an extra layer of bonder to strengthen the surface.

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. Allow 24 hours for the surface to cure before using your bath, and it will look brand new!

How long does the procedure take?

The entire bath re-enamelling or resurfacing process takes around 5-7 hours. A key part of the procedure is masking the bathroom to protect surfaces from overspray, which does take some time. This important step ensures your bathroom remains safe from any accidental overspray. If there are chips or dents in your bath, these need to be filled before resurfacing for the best possible results. Repairing any chips and dents can take additional time, but ensures a better outcome.

I have been resurfacing baths for many years, so I will be able to get your bath looking brand new again! Re-enamelling your bath will restore it to a like-new appearance and feel.

You won't be adding more wastage to your local landfill site when you choose to repair and restore your bath.

The materials I use are of the highest quality, which you won’t find at your local DIY store for DIY bath painting. I’ve been working with these materials for over 10 years, ensuring consistent and durable outcomes every time.
