Does your bath need resurfacing or re-enamelling? If your bath looks worn, sticky, or chipped, a full restoration is the best approach. With Surface Doctor Oldbury, your bath can be restored to a brand-new condition without the mess or hassle of a full replacement. 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. This is all done in your bathroom so there is no messing with your bath installation or anything like that. Using a unique enamel paint, it hardens and cures within 24 hours, allowing you to use your bath the next day. During re-enamelling, I’ll fix any chips or scratches so the new enamel will create a smooth, perfect surface. I offer resurfacing services for cast-iron, metal, and acrylic baths. This quick and cost-effective procedure only takes a day, saving you both time and money compared to a full bath replacement. I stand behind my bath resurfacing work with a 12-month guarantee.
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. 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. Acrylic baths are lighter, making removal easier, but still cause damage to your bathroom when removed. Once removed, you’ll need to re-tile around the bath, refit taps and drains, and possibly replace flooring. By restoring your bath, you’re choosing an environmentally responsible option, reducing construction waste. Traditional metal baths are common in older houses and can last for decades with proper maintenance. When a metal bath shows signs of wear, resurfacing is a quick and effective way to restore it to its original condition. Acrylic baths may not last as long as metal baths, but they can still be resurfaced to great effect. With individual repairs, I match the paint to your bath’s surface, but when resurfacing or re-enamelling, I apply a brilliant white enamel to the whole 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. A successful resurfacing process involves using an adhesive bonder to securely attach the new surface to the bath. I use a highly specialized bonder that ensures the most durable and lasting results for your bath. The materials I use have been trusted by me for years, and they provide unmatched results in bath resurfacing.
All of my resurfacing work is done in-situ, so you will never have to remove your bath and transport it to me, then have it delivered back and installed again. I complete all resurfacing in just one day in your bathroom, ensuring minimal disruption for you. 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.
If your bath is severely chipped or dented, I’ll repair these imperfections first to ensure a flawless surface for resurfacing. 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 Oldbury.
1. I begin by masking up the bathroom and surrounding areas to prevent any damage during the procedure.
2. I will sand off the top surface of the bath to take it back to the metal. 3. Next, I will apply a layer of our unique bonder and fill in any chips, holes, cracks, or other imperfections. 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. Next, I’ll buff the surface to a high shine. 7. Now wait 24 hours before using your bath again and it will look brand new!
Typically, re-enamelling or resurfacing a bath takes between 5 and 7 hours. One of the steps that takes some time is masking up and protecting all the surfaces around your bath to make sure no overspray gets on anything. 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. If there’s damage to repair, it can extend the process slightly compared to a bath without damage.
My years of experience in bath resurfacing mean I can get your bath looking like it’s just been installed. Re-enamelling will give your bath a fresh, new look and feel, making it look like new again.
Having your bath resurfaced instead of replacing it will save you money, time, and is environmentally friendly. You won't be adding more wastage to your local landfill site when you choose to repair and restore your bath. Any chips, cracks, or scratches will be repaired during the resurfacing process to ensure a flawless result.
I use the highest quality materials available, so don't think you can get the same result as me by painting your bath yourself with something from your local DIY shop. 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.
