At Surface Doctor West-Bromwich, we offer professional bath restoration to make your bath look brand new again, with no disruption to your bathroom.

With bath re-enamelling (or resurfacing), we apply a new surface to your bath, making it look brand new once again. This is all done in your bathroom so there is no messing with your bath installation or anything like that. The special enamel I use hardens and cures in 24 hours, ensuring your bath is ready for use the following day. I’ll also take care of any chip or scratch repairs as part of the process, ensuring a smooth, flawless surface before the new enamel is sprayed. 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 offer a 12-month guarantee on my bath resurfacing services.
In today’s consumer culture, we often choose to replace over repair, but when it comes to baths, it’s not so easy. Getting rid of an old bath is not as straightforward as many people think. Removing cast-iron baths involves breaking them down due to their weight, leading to potential 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. By restoring your bath, you’re choosing an environmentally responsible option, reducing construction waste. Many older homes feature metal baths that can last a lifetime with the right care. When a metal bath shows signs of wear, resurfacing is a quick and effective way to restore it to its original condition. 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.
For resurfacing your bath, I rely on high-quality, professional materials that are reserved for commercial use. Resurfacing a bath requires more than just white paint—it involves specific materials designed for the task. One of the crucial steps for effective resurfacing is applying an adhesive bonder to attach the new surface to your original bath. The bonder I use is specifically sourced to guarantee the best, long-lasting outcomes. 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. I complete all resurfacing in just one day in your bathroom, ensuring minimal disruption for you. Vitreous enamel involves coating your bath in powdered glass and fusing it onto the surface using a kiln at high temperatures. Due to the extreme heat required, this service can’t be done in-situ, and few companies offer it these days.
If your bath is badly chipped and dented, I will repair this first to ensure the surface is smooth and flat before resurfacing it. You won’t incur extra costs for this step—it’s included in the resurfacing service. Most baths are suitable for resurfacing, so give me a call today to learn if I can restore your bath in West-Bromwich.
1. I’ll carefully mask the bathroom and surrounding areas to protect them during the resurfacing process.
2. Step 2: I will carefully sand off the top layer of the bath, revealing the underlying metal surface. 3. I then will apply a layer of our special bonder and then fill in any holes, chips, cracks, etc. 4. After that, I will apply another layer of bonder on top. 5. Next, I will apply a fresh enamel surface to your bath. 6. I will proceed to buff the surface, giving it a glossy, smooth finish. 7. Give it 24 hours to fully cure, and your bath will be as good as new!
The entire bath re-enamelling or resurfacing process takes around 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 your bath has chips or dents, they must be filled and repaired before resurfacing to ensure a smooth result. If your bath has damage, this extra step can take a bit longer than if no repairs are needed.
