Instead of replacing your bath, we can repair cracks at a much lower cost! Cracks in your bath can cause leaks and worsen, leaving your bath unusable until it is fixed. Replacing the entire bath, including repairing surrounding tiles and walls, can be a costly and unexpected expense. At Surface Doctor Billingshurst, we specialize in fast, affordable bath crack repairs without replacing the entire bath. Call us now for a no-obligation free quote!

With years of experience, our technicians are skilled in determining whether a cracked bath can be repaired or needs to be replaced. Often, the crack is cosmetic and can be fixed to an excellent 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 experts at assessing the damage to determine what type of crack your bath has. 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. Our technicians have perfected this precise skill after years of experience and practice.

Bath Crack Repair with Perfect Colour Matching

One of the most important steps in repairing a bath is colour matching a new enamel paint for the repair. Believe it or not, all baths are varying shades of white, so a pre-made paint simply won't match the colour of your bath precisely. We use specialized tinters to create a custom enamel paint that matches your bath’s exact shade of white for a flawless repair. They do this using specialised tinters.

Many DIY repair kits offer only one or two shades of white paint, but they won't match your bath’s exact white shade. Your bath’s white shade may vary due to age and usage, and there are many shades of white for baths, sinks, and tiles.

Our technician will create your own new enamel colour on the day, to ensure that the repair blends in as seamlessly as possible. Achieving the perfect colour match is a precise skill that takes years of practice. Creating the enamel colour on-site ensures a perfect match to the exact shade of white of your bath or shower tray. With years of experience in colour matching, our technicians will ensure a perfect result.

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. Most cracks will need to be supported from beneath, filled, and sealed to make the bath watertight before the new enamel is applied. Our technician will follow these essential steps before applying the colour-matched enamel to your bath. No steps will be skipped, ensuring a long-lasting repair that’s as durable as the rest of your bath.

Our Full Step-by-Step Procedure:

1. Our technician will inspect the crack to see if it is easily repairable, or if it is structural. For structural damage, we advise against repairing it, and if you proceed with a repair, we cannot provide a warranty.

2. Next, the technician will clean the area and reinforce the crack from underneath the bath to ensure it's watertight.

3. Next, we’ll fill the crack and smooth it over to ensure it’s completely seamless.

4. Then the technician will apply our specialised bonder to the repair in preparation for the next step.

5. The technician will colour match a new enamel paint to your bath’s exact shade of white, ensuring it blends perfectly. It will then be sprayed onto 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. Relax and use your bath like normal, no need for costly replacement!

How long will it take to repair a crack in my bath?

Reliable bath crack repair specialists in Billingshurst

Depending on the extent of the crack and if it is structural - your repair will take anywhere from 1-2 hours to half a day. Much faster than removing and replacing your bath!

We always aim to achieve the highest quality repair possible, with excellent customer service, so you feel totally happy with your repair. The majority of our repairs will not be noticeable with normal usage of your bath.

We use the best quality materials that are only available on a commercial basis and will never ever cut corners by using cheaper materials whilst carrying out your repair. Our technicians will carry out a bath crack repair that is colour matched to your bath by eye ensuring you get the best repair possible. When you see your completed repair, you'll be amazed by how good it is.

We’re often asked why to choose us over a DIY repair kit, and we always say try it, but reach out to us when it doesn’t work out. The problem with the DIY repair kits is the quality of the materials they provide are totally substandard to the professional grade materials we use, and they won't last as long. A true colour match is difficult to achieve with DIY kits, as they only provide one or two shades of white for your repair. Simply put - if the DIY repair kits worked so well, we would no longer be in business!

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

Most repairs will last for the duration of your bath. But sometimes with an extensive crack or structural damage we won't be able to put a guarantee on your repair as it will be hard to judge how long the bath will last.
