Is your bath in need of re-enamelling or resurfacing? When you notice your bath is looking dull, sticky, or has chips, resurfacing the entire surface is recommended. With Surface Doctor Washington, 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. 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 resurface all types of baths including cast-iron, metal, and acrylic baths. It only takes a day to do this procedure, which is much faster and cheaper than replacing your bath. My bath resurfacing services are backed by a 12-month guarantee for peace of mind.
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 extremely heavy and must be broken apart for removal, which often results in damage to 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. Restoring your bath is the most eco-friendly choice, preventing the additional waste generated from removing and replacing it. Metal baths are a lasting feature of older homes, providing durability for decades. A quick resurfacing restores dull, chipped, or scratched metal baths to look brand new, providing a durable finish. While acrylic baths have a shorter lifespan than metal baths, resurfacing them gives great 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 use commercial-grade materials to resurface your bath, which are not available to the general public. Resurfacing a bath requires more than just white paint—it involves specific materials designed for the task. To ensure proper resurfacing, I use an adhesive bonder that bonds the new surface firmly to the original bath. The specialized bonder I use provides the strongest and most lasting bond for bath resurfacing. I have been using my preferred materials for many years so I know that they work and create the highest standard of repairs.
I complete all resurfacing work in-situ, so there’s no need to remove and transport your bath for repair. Since I work in-situ, the entire resurfacing process is completed in just one day, causing minimal disruption to your day-to-day life. Vitreous enamel is a specialized technique in which powdered glass is fused onto your bath at high temperatures in a kiln. Vitreous enamel resurfacing requires extreme heat, which means it can’t be done in-situ and is rarely offered by companies now.
If your bath has significant chips or dents, I’ll handle the repairs to make sure the surface is even and smooth before the resurfacing process. This is all included in the process and there won't be any extra charges for this. I can resurface most baths, so contact me today to see if I can restore yours in Washington.
1. First, I will mask the bathroom and surrounding areas to ensure they are fully protected during the process.
2. Step 2: I will carefully sand off the top layer of the bath, revealing the underlying metal surface. 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. Next, I will apply a fresh enamel surface to your bath. 6. The next step is to buff the surface, ensuring it has a smooth, shiny finish. 7. Give it 24 hours to fully cure, and your bath will be as good as new!
On average, re-enamelling or resurfacing your bath will take 5-7 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 there are chips or dents in your bath, these need to be filled before resurfacing for the best possible results. If your bath has damage, this extra step can take a bit longer than if no repairs are needed.
With years of experience in bath resurfacing, I can restore your bath to its original condition. Re-enamelling will give your bath a fresh, new look and feel, making it look like new again.
