Repairing cracks in your bath is much more affordable than replacing the whole bath! Cracks in your bath can cause leaks and worsen, leaving your bath unusable until it is fixed. Quotes for ripping out and replacing the bath, plus fixing the surrounding tiles and walls, are typically a high, unplanned expense. At Surface Doctor Bishops Waltham, we can repair the crack in your bath quickly without needing to replace the whole bath. Get in touch with us now for a free quote, with no obligation!
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. In most cases, the crack is 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 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. 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 precise repair method takes years of practice to perfect, and our technicians are highly skilled in it.
1. The technician will evaluate the crack to determine whether it can be easily repaired or if it’s structural. For structural damage, we advise against repairing it, and if you proceed with a repair, we cannot provide a warranty.
2. The technician will then clean the area and reinforce the crack from the underside of the bath to make sure it's watertight. 3. The next step is to fill in the crack and smooth it out so you can't feel it anymore. 4. Then the technician will apply our specialised bonder to the repair in preparation for the next step. 5. The technician will match a new enamel paint to your bath’s exact white shade for a seamless blend, and it will be sprayed onto the repair using a fine spray gun. 6. Allow your bath to set for 24 hours before using it to ensure the repair fully cures. 7. Relax and use your bath like normal, no need for costly replacement!
The time it takes to repair a crack depends on the severity and whether it's structural, but typically takes between 1-2 hours to half a day. This is much quicker than replacing your entire 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. The materials in DIY repair kits are of lower quality than the professional materials we use, meaning the repairs won’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. Simply put - if the DIY repair kits worked so well, we would no longer be in business!How long will a bath crack repair last?
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.
