Colchester Bath Repairs by Bath Medic

What does bath re-enamelling involve?

Bath resurfacing, bath enamelling, re-enamelling, and bath restoration usually describe the same process. The restoration is performed on-site with precision tools, including a hot gun and sprayer. There are many companies in the UK performing this type of restoration to a different standard and often their service description is a bit confusing.

Professional Bath Enamel Chip Repair in Colchester

Bath enamel repair in spots, small cosmetic repairs to the sanitary ware (and other hard surfaces), commonly known as ‘chip repair’ or ‘invisible repair’ is a cost-saving method of fixing scratches, dings, and minor imperfections.

In most cases, small bath enamel chips can be repaired efficiently within hours, saving both time and money compared to a full replacement.

Each repair method depends on the material and extent of damage, but in general, I strengthen and level the affected area. After reinforcing the damaged area, I ensure an exact colour match so that the repair is completely unnoticeable.

Backed by years of experience, we excel in bath restoration and refinishing, including:

  • Precision Bath Chip Repair
  • Bath Enamel Surface Repair
  • Bath Re-Enamelling
  • Shower Tray Surface Repair
  • Professional Sink Surface Repairs

A smart and green alternative to replacements, with applications beyond bathroom surfaces. I can repair the majority of hard surfaces! While my main focus is sanitary ware, I also repair a variety of surfaces—see my gallery for examples!

Antique Sink Restoration & Porcelain Crack Repair.

We take pride in delivering top-notch service, ensuring complete client satisfaction. Clients rely on us for high-quality services, including:

  • Sink Crack Repair and Resurfacing: In addition to bath refinishing, I offer expert sink and basin restoration. Due to increasing requests for porcelain sink repairs, Eager Beaver now specializes in restoring damaged and worn sinks. Your Belfast sink doesn’t need to be thrown away due to damage—we can restore it! I offer quick restoration, either as a same-day service or collection and delivery. Browse through examples of my sink restorations and contact me to book your repair.
  • Why Fix a Sink Rather Than Replace It? When your sink gets damaged, replacing it might seem like the only option—but there’s a better solution. Without disconnecting your sink or basin, I can repair and restore it to a like-new condition, saving you extra costs and hassle-free.
  • Professional Fixes for Sink Cracks and Minor Surface Damage: Chipped Sink Repair. Different repair methods apply depending on the size of the damage. Whenever possible, I minimize both the repair area and the cost for you. For this repair, only the damaged section of the acrylic basin was treated. Even though the damage was in a visible spot, the repair is undetectable.
 

Full Sink Resurfacing Colchester

  • Sink Resurfacing: Sink resurfacing is essentially a smaller-scale version of bath or shower refinishing. For minor damage, we do spot repairs, but for larger issues, full resurfacing may be required. Porcelain sink resurfacing follows the same meticulous steps as bath and shower refinishing. Proper preparation includes fixing damage, surface cleaning, and applying high-quality coatings for durability. A smooth, glossy topcoat is polished, and new silicone is applied at no cost where necessary. When an acrylic sink needs a complete makeover, our resurfacing method ensures longevity. I take special precautions to leave no mess behind, carefully protecting the surrounding area. Depending on the conditions on-site, I either create a ‘tent’ (spray booth) around the sink or mask the entire bathroom, protecting walls, floor, and anything else from overspray or dust. Got an antique or standalone sink? I can take it to my Bristol workshop for a premium restoration. The total time required for an entire sink repair and resurfacing is between 4-7 hours, and it will be usable from no later than the following day. Since nothing is removed or disconnected, resurfacing is a faster, more efficient alternative to replacement.

Your Questions, Answered

We understand that you may have inquiries about bath repair and resurfacing. Below, we’ve listed the top questions our customers ask.

Much less than any other option. Most jobs are finished in 4 – 8 hours.

With Bath Medic, your refinished bathtub will have a lifespan similar to a brand-new tub. Keeping up with gentle cleaning practices will allow your refinished tub to maintain its durability. Its lifespan is nearly identical to that of a new bathtub!

Every job at Bath Medic comes with an industry-best Lifetime written guarantee. Other refinishing companies use pro-rated warranties that reduce coverage as time passes. We stand by our work—any material or workmanship defects are fully covered for life.

Cleaning a resurfaced bathtub is often easier compared to the original surface. Non-abrasive cleaners are key to maintaining the shine and longevity of your refinished bath. Just as with a new bathtub, the finish or shine can be dulled by abrasive cleaners.

This is a widespread misconception when it comes to bath resurfacing. Unlike paint, our refinishing process uses a durable coating designed for bathtubs. Thanks to our precise refinishing technique, your bath will look as good as new, with no signs of repainting.

Our standard topcoat fully cures in 24 hours, allowing you to use your bathtub the next day.

During refinishing, we repair cracks, remove rust, fix chips, and restore discolored surfaces. Kitchen countertops with knife cuts, scratches, burns, and chips will also look like new.
