Does your bath need resurfacing or re-enamelling? When your bath is dull, sticky, or chipped, restoring it completely is the ideal fix. At Surface Doctor Morley, we offer professional bath restoration to make your bath look brand new again, with no 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. No need to change your bath installation, as all work is completed directly in your bathroom. 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. 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. I stand behind my bath resurfacing work with a 12-month guarantee.
In today’s world, replacing items with new ones is easy, but when it comes to baths, it’s not as straightforward. Removing an old bath isn’t as simple as it may seem. 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. While acrylic baths are much lighter and can be carried out more easily, it will still cause damage to the rest of your bathroom if you have it removed. Once removed, you’ll need to re-tile around the bath, refit taps and drains, and possibly replace 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. 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. 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 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. A successful resurfacing process involves using an adhesive bonder to securely attach the new surface to the bath. I have sourced a very specialised bonder which creates the most lasting results possible. I’ve trusted my preferred materials for years, knowing they consistently produce excellent, high-quality repairs.
With my in-situ resurfacing service, you don’t need to remove or transport your bath—everything is done in your bathroom. 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 specialized technique in which powdered glass is fused onto your bath at 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. There are no extra charges for this step; it’s all part of the resurfacing process. There are very few baths that I can’t resurface—call me today to find out if I can restore your bath in Morley.
1. I’ll carefully mask the bathroom and surrounding areas to protect them during the resurfacing process.
2. The next step is to sand off the bath’s top surface, exposing the metal for resurfacing. 3. Once the bonder is applied, I’ll proceed to fill any chips, cracks, or holes in the surface. 4. Following this, I will apply an extra layer of bonder to strengthen the surface. 5. Now I will spray on the new enamel surface to your bath. 6. I will proceed to buff the surface, giving it a glossy, smooth finish. 7. You’ll need to wait 24 hours before using your bath, and it will be as good as 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. Masking and protection are vital to ensure no damage occurs to your bathroom. If your bath has chips or dents, they must be filled and repaired before resurfacing to ensure a smooth result. Repairing any chips and dents can take additional time, but ensures a better outcome.
