At Surface Doctor, we follow a specialised procedure when repairing chips in baths to ensure the highest standard of repair. While most baths are white, the shade can differ significantly due to factors like age, usage, and lighting. The key step in any repair is colour matching the enamel to the exact shade of your bath. Our technicians do this by eye on the day, using special tinters for a seamless result.
When repairing damage to your bath, we create a custom enamel paint that is colour matched to the exact shade of white of your bath, using specialised tinters for a seamless repair.
Baths, sinks, and shower trays all have different shades of white, so a pre-made paint can never match them perfectly.
This is why we have to create your new enamel colour on the day - to make sure the colour matches the shade of white of your bath or shower tray exactly. Our technicians have many years of experience colour matching in this way so your bath will be in capable hands with us.
The technician will apply a specialised bonder before spraying on the new enamel, ensuring the repair adheres properly. Any chips, holes, or imperfections will be filled in to restore the surface to a smooth finish before the final layer of enamel paint is applied using a special spray gun.
1. The technician will assess the area requiring repair.
2. Next, the technician will clean the area and apply a special bonder to the surface, which serves as the foundation for the repair.
3. If the damage requires filler, this will be done next using our professional grade filler specially designed for baths. This will be left to dry and harden.
4. The next step is sanding and buffing the repair, ensuring the bath’s surface is smooth and the repair seamlessly melts into the bath.
5. The most precise step comes next, as our technician will colour match a new enamel and apply it to your bath with a fine spray gun over a layer of specialized bonder to ensure it adheres securely to your bath.
6. Simply wait 24 hours, and your bath will be like new again, ready for use!
Most repairs can be done in 1-2 hours, though extensive damage like cracks and holes may take longer to repair than smaller chips.
Our focus is on providing a high-standard bath chip repair with outstanding customer service, ensuring you are completely satisfied. You won’t notice the damage with normal use of your bath.
We use specialised products and materials that are only available on a commercial basis so you know that your repair will be of the highest quality. We never cut corners by using cheaper materials just to try and increase profits like some companies do. We use our years of expertise to create a true colour-matched repair to the damaged area so that you can no longer notice the damage. Unless you knew the damage was there previously, you shouldn't be able to detect it.
Thinking about using a DIY Repair Kit? Go ahead, but call us when it doesn’t work out. DIY kits contain basic products, not professional-grade materials. They typically come with just one or two shades of white, making it impossible to achieve a perfect colour match. If they were effective, we wouldn’t still be in business!
What is the lifespan of a bath chip repair?
Most repairs should last for as long as the surface of the bath, as our technicians use only the highest quality materials and processes. The repair will be able to withstand normal usage of the bath so you can use your bath like normal again.
