These days, it’s common to discard old items and buy new ones, but with baths, it’s not always that simple. It’s not easy to dispose of an old bath, especially depending on its material. 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. Acrylic baths are lighter and easier to move, but removing them can still damage your bathroom. 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. Traditional metal baths are common in older houses and can last for decades with proper maintenance. When the surface of metal baths gets worn, chipped, or scratched, resurfacing makes them look brand new again, restoring strength and beauty. While acrylic baths have a shorter lifespan than metal baths, resurfacing them gives great results. 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 use commercial-grade materials to resurface your bath, which are not available to the general public. 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’ve trusted my preferred materials for years, knowing they consistently produce excellent, high-quality repairs.

All resurfacing is done directly in your bathroom, so you won’t have to remove your bath and deal with the hassle of transport and reinstallation. 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. I’m not aware of many companies still offering this in-situ, as the extreme heat needed makes it impossible.

When your bath is badly chipped or dented, I’ll repair these areas first to ensure a smooth and even surface before resurfacing. This is all included in the process and there won't be any extra charges for this. Most baths are suitable for resurfacing, so give me a call today to learn if I can restore your bath in Malmesbury.
