Repairing cracks in your bath is much more affordable than replacing the whole bath! When you notice a crack in your bath, it’s a big inconvenience, as it may leak or get worse over time. The cost of ripping out and replacing your bath, along with the repairs to surrounding tiles and walls, is usually a significant, unplanned expense. Surface Doctor Birkenhead can fix the crack in your bath efficiently, saving you the hassle and cost of full replacement. Contact us now for a free, no-obligation quote!
All of our technicians have many years of experience repairing cracked baths and they know how to spot when the damage is easily repairable, or if it does unfortunately need to be replaced. Most cracks are merely superficial and can be repaired to look like new. Occasionally, the crack will be structural, affecting the bath’s integrity or due to poor installation, in which case we don’t recommend repairing it, as the crack may reappear. Our technicians are adept at identifying the type of crack and deciding the best course of action for your bath. If the bath is repairable, our technicians follow a precise process to deliver a top-tier repair that seamlessly matches the rest of the bath. The repair process involves colour-matching the enamel paint to your bath’s exact shade, ensuring the repair is virtually undetectable. This skill requires years of practice and experience, which our technicians have mastered.
1. Our technician will inspect the crack to see if it is easily repairable, or if it is structural. If the damage is structural, we do not recommend proceeding with repairs, and in such cases, no warranty will be offered.
2. After cleaning the area, the technician will reinforce the crack from underneath the bath to guarantee it's watertight. 3. The crack will be filled in and smoothed out so that it’s no longer noticeable. 4. Next, the technician will apply a specialised bonder to the repair, preparing it for the next stage. 5. A new enamel paint will be colour matched to the exact shade of white of your bath to make sure that it blends in seamlessly. This will be sprayed on to the repair using a fine spray gun. 6. Leave your bath for 24 hours before using it so the repair can fully cure and set. 7. Use your bath like normal and relax knowing you don't have to rip it out and replace it!
Depending on the size and type of crack, the repair will take 1-2 hours to half a day. This is far quicker than the hassle of removing and replacing your bath!
At Surface Doctor, we aim for top-quality repairs and excellent service, ensuring you're happy with your repair. The majority of our repairs won’t be visible during normal use of your bath.
We never cut corners when carrying out repairs, using only top-quality, commercial-grade materials. Our technicians will colour match your bath crack repair by eye, ensuring a seamless result. When you see the finished repair, you'll be blown away by the quality. When customers ask why they should choose our services over a DIY repair kit, we suggest they try it out but contact us when it fails to deliver. DIY repair kits use subpar materials compared to the professional-grade materials we use, and their results don’t last as long. The problem with DIY repair kits is that they only give one or two shades of white, making it nearly impossible to achieve a true colour match. If DIY repair kits were as effective as advertised, we wouldn’t be here offering professional repairs!How long will a bath crack repair last?
Typically, our repairs last for the entire lifespan of your bath. However, with severe cracks or structural damage, we can’t guarantee the repair as it’s hard to predict the bath’s longevity.
