Our bathtub refinishing in Reading service provides a smooth, shiny, easy-to-clean finish that resolves these issues, provided in various shades to align with your aesthetic.
Our Tub Restoration Process in Reading
Surface Doctor usually performs bath resurfacing in Reading on-site, meaning we don’t displace the bathtub or affect installed fixtures or tiles. The process is done in a few hours, and your bathtub is ready to use within the same day. Here’s how we do it:
For example, we refinished a ceramic bath in Reading, thought to be an authentic French model. Heavy at a ton, this tub demanded a reinforced floor but was transformed to a beautiful, chip-free, glossy finish. The interior designer and homeowner were delighted with the transformation.
Refurbishing Historical and Vintage Bathtubs in Reading
Surface Doctor specializes in refinishing original Victorian cast-iron and historical roll-top bathtubs, which are more luxurious than modern plastic baths but often show aging. We’ve restored baths abandoned for long periods, reviving their beauty with a lustrous finish that enhances any stylish bathroom in Reading.
Vintage tubs may have distinct features like waves, bumps, low spots, or small imperfections from the initial coating method. These are what makes them special and become more noticeable after recoating due to the reflective gloss finish. Our experts in Reading fill as many pinholes as possible without affecting durability, though some may remain as natural features, notably on the bath’s sides.
For instance, we refinished an antique roll-top plunger bath in Scotland’s Melrose, renewing its damaged, stained surface into a glossy masterpiece.
