FAQs
Many people are unsure about the bath resurfacing process and the options available to them to avoid replacing their existing bathware.
Below is a list of questions that are frequently asked by Mend-A-Bath East Midlands customers. We hope this list also answers any questions that you may have but obviously it is by no means exhaustive, so feel free to give us a call on Freephone 07753 732 133 and we will be more than happy to answer further questions and offer specialist advice.
The benefits are primarily the savings in cost and time. A bath can be completely resurfaced in 4 hours and back in use in just 24 hours. Another major benefit offered by Mendabath UK East Midlands is our 5 year guarantee.
Most baths can be resurfaced in just 4 hours. However if additional work needs to be undertaken such as stripping off an old coating or fixing major damage the process may take longer.
Most baths can be used again in 24 hours. However if the room is without heating the bath may need to be left to cure for longer. The technician completing the work will advice you if additional cure time is required.
We would ask that before we arrive, you remove all personal effects such as toothbrushes, shampoo and soap dishes, and ensure that the bathroom is clean and dust free. If you have a dripping tap, this must be fixed before we arrive, as we cannot resurface a bath with leaking taps.
Once we have finished, allow the bath to cure for 24 hours, remove the tap bags and enjoy your bath.
No. Our materials do not contain isocyanides, but like all coating materials do have solvents that will have a paint-like smell. Most of the smell will be removed with our extractor fans and what little is left will quickly disperse.
We resurface baths. The process of re-enamelling a bath requires vitreous enamel to be baked onto the bath surface at about 1000 degrees Celsius. This process is impossible to replicate in situ. We manufacture and use thermoplastic epoxy based materials to resurface your bath. The majority of our competitors offering in situ services either use polyurethane or an acrylic type products, which is why at Mendabath, with superior products, we are market leaders.
