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. At Surface Doctor Kinds-hill, we specialize in restoring your bath to its original condition, with minimal disruption to your bathroom. Call me today to find out how I can restore your bath.
Bath re-enamelling, or resurfacing, involves spraying a fresh surface onto your bath, restoring its original appearance. You won’t have to worry about altering your bath installation as the process is done in your bathroom. Using a unique enamel paint, it hardens and cures within 24 hours, allowing you to use your bath the next day. As part of the re-enamelling process, I repair any chips or scratches to ensure a smooth finish when the new enamel is applied. I can resurface all cast-iron and metal baths, and also acrylic baths. This procedure is completed in one day, offering a faster and more budget-friendly alternative to replacing your bath. My bath resurfacing is guaranteed for 12 months.
These days, it’s common to discard old items and buy new ones, but with baths, it’s not always that simple. When it comes to baths, getting rid of the old one isn’t a quick or easy task. Cast-iron baths are so heavy that they have to be smashed to pieces before being carried out, which can lead to damage throughout your bathroom. Acrylic baths are lighter, making removal easier, but still cause damage to your bathroom when removed. 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 the surface of metal baths gets worn, chipped, or scratched, resurfacing makes them look brand new again, restoring strength and beauty. Acrylic baths might not last as long as metal ones, but resurfacing them still provides impressive results. For individual repairs like chips and scratches, I color match the repair to your bath, but with re-enamelling or resurfacing, I use a fresh white enamel to respray the entire surface.
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. To ensure proper resurfacing, I use an adhesive bonder that bonds the new surface firmly to the original bath. I use a highly specialized bonder that ensures the most durable and lasting results for your bath. I have been using my preferred materials for many years so I know that they work and create the highest standard of repairs.
There’s no need to remove your bath or deal with complicated transport, as all of my resurfacing work is done in-situ. I complete all resurfacing in just one day in your bathroom, ensuring minimal disruption for you. Vitreous enamel is a specialized technique in which powdered glass is fused onto your bath at 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.
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. 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 Kinds-hill.
1. First, I will mask the bathroom and surrounding areas to ensure they are fully protected during the 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 will then apply another layer of bonder over this. 5. At this stage, I will apply a new enamel coating to your bath. 6. After spraying, I’ll buff the enamel to achieve a flawless shine. 7. Now wait 24 hours before using your bath again 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. 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.
I have been resurfacing baths for many years, so I will be able to get your bath looking brand new again! When you have your bath re-enamelled, it will look and feel like a brand new bath again.
Opting for bath resurfacing over replacement saves both time and money, while being better for the environment. By restoring your bath, you’re reducing waste and avoiding adding more to your local landfill. 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. 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.
