We can repair cracks in your bath at a fraction of the price of replacing your bath! Finding a crack in your bath is a hassle, as it can lead to leaks and worsen over time, making your bath unusable. Removing and replacing your entire bath, including fixing the damage to tiles and walls, can quickly turn into a costly, unexpected bill. Surface Doctor Alton can fix the crack in your bath efficiently, saving you the hassle and cost of full replacement. Call now for your free, no-obligation quote!

All of our expert technicians are highly experienced in bath crack repairs and can assess whether the crack is repairable or if replacement is necessary. Most times the crack is just superficial and can be repaired to a high standard. In some cases, the crack is structural, meaning it impacts the bath’s strength or was caused by improper installation; in these cases, we advise against repairs as the crack may return. 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. They will colour match a new enamel paint to your exact bath on the day to make sure the new repair blends into your bath seamlessly. This is a very precise skill and takes many years of practice and experience to perfect - which luckily all our technicians have!

Precise Colour Matching for Bath Crack Repairs

Colour matching is critical in bath repairs, as no two baths are the same shade of white, and pre-made paints won’t provide the precise match needed. Our technician will create your very own enamel paint that matches the shade of white of your bath on the day to get a true colour match. Using specialised tinters, we ensure the enamel paint perfectly matches your bath's original colour.

Some DIY repair kits will only provide one or two shades of white paint to use on your bath, but it simply won't match the white of your bath. There are many different shades of white for baths, sinks, shower trays, and tiles, and the original white may change with age and use.

To ensure the repair blends seamlessly, our technician will create a custom enamel colour on the day of the repair. This is a precise skill which takes years of practice to get right. We mix your new enamel colour on the day to ensure the colour matches your bath or shower tray’s exact white shade. Our technicians have extensive experience in colour matching, so your bath is in skilled hands.

At Surface Doctor, we only use the highest quality, professional-grade materials, including our special adhesive bonder that ensures the repair adheres perfectly to your bath's surface. The crack will most likely need to be supported from underneath and filled in and sealed to make sure the bath is watertight before the new enamel is sprayed on top. All these steps will be completed by our technician before the final layer of colour-matched enamel is sprayed onto your bath. Our technician follows every necessary step, ensuring the repair lasts for years, just like the rest of your bath.

Full Step By Step Procedure:

1. Our technician will assess the crack to determine if it’s easily repairable or if it’s a structural issue. If it's structural damage, we wouldn't recommend repairing it, so if you choose to go ahead with a repair we won't offer a warranty for this.

2. The technician will clean the surface and then strengthen the crack from the underside to ensure the bath remains watertight.

3. We’ll fill the crack and smooth the surface so that it feels as if the crack never existed.

4. To prepare for the next step, the technician will apply our specially formulated bonder to the repair.

5. We’ll match the new enamel paint to the exact white of your bath to ensure a flawless finish, applying it with a fine spray gun.

6. It’s important to leave your bath for 24 hours to allow the repair to fully cure and set.

7. Relax and use your bath like normal, no need for costly replacement!

How much time does a bath crack repair take?

Your bath crack repair will take between 1-2 hours and half a day, depending on the crack's extent and whether it’s structural. It's much faster than 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. It's also very hard to achieve a true colour match to the surface of your bath as the repair kit will only provide you with one or two shades of white to use on your repair. If DIY repair kits were as effective as advertised, we wouldn’t be here offering professional repairs!

What’s the expected duration of a bath crack repair?

Most of our repairs are long-lasting, but with significant cracks or structural damage, we cannot provide a guarantee since it’s difficult to assess the bath’s durability.

Below are some reviews from our satisfied customers

“When I found a big crack in my bath, I was worried about having to replace it. A friend suggested Surface Doctor London, and I’m so glad they did! The technician did an amazing repair, and we were able to use the bath again the next day. It was such a relief to avoid replacing the whole bath. Thanks for the fast and excellent service!”

“After my tenants moved out, I discovered a crack in the bath at one of my BTL properties that had caused leaking and water damage to the floor. Surface Doctor quickly repaired the crack, sealed it, and now the bath is watertight with no more leaks! It saved me from having to completely redo the bathroom. I’ll definitely use Surface Doctor for repairs from now on.”
