We offer bath crack repairs at a fraction of the cost of replacing your entire bath! Cracks in your bath can cause leaks and worsen, leaving your bath unusable until it is fixed. The cost of ripping out and replacing your bath, along with the repairs to surrounding tiles and walls, is usually a significant, unplanned expense. At Surface Doctor Canvey-Island, 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. 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 experienced technicians are skilled at determining the type of crack in your bath and whether it can be repaired. 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. On the day of the repair, they will colour match new enamel paint to your bath to ensure the repair blends perfectly with the original surface. This skill requires years of practice and experience, which our technicians have mastered.

Precise Colour Matching for Bath Crack Repairs

For the best repair, we ensure the enamel paint is colour-matched precisely to your bath. Since all baths are different shades of white, pre-made paint won’t suffice. Our technician will mix a custom enamel paint to match your bath's exact shade of white, ensuring a seamless repair. This is achieved using specialised tinters for the perfect match.

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. Baths, shower trays, sinks, and white tiles come in so many different shades of white, and the original shade of white could be affected by the age of your bath, and the usage it has had.

On the day of the repair, our technician will match a new enamel colour to your bath to ensure the repair blends perfectly. Matching the enamel colour perfectly requires a high level of skill and years of experience. This is why we create the enamel colour on the day, to ensure it perfectly matches the exact white shade of your bath or shower tray. Thanks to years of expertise in colour matching, our technicians will make sure your bath is well taken care of.

We use only the best professional-grade materials, like our specialized adhesive bonder, to ensure your repair sticks firmly to the bath surface. Most cracks will need to be supported from beneath, filled, and sealed to make the bath watertight before the new enamel is applied. All these steps will be completed by our technician before the final layer of colour-matched enamel is sprayed onto your bath. We don’t cut corners, so you can be confident that the repair will last as long as your bath’s original surface.

Complete Procedure, Step by Step:

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 clean the damaged area and reinforce the crack from below the bath to make it watertight.

3. The crack will be filled in and smoothed out so that it’s no longer noticeable.

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

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. Make sure to leave your bath for 24 hours before using it so the repair has time to cure and set.

7. Feel at ease using your bath again, with no need to rip it out and replace it!

What is the duration of a bath crack repair?

Clean and smooth bath crack repair finish in Canvey-Island

The repair process usually takes between 1-2 hours to half a day, depending on whether the crack is structural. It’s a much quicker option 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 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.

We’ve been asked why customers should choose us over using a DIY repair kit, and we always say try it yourself, but call us when it doesn't work. DIY kits use inferior materials compared to the professional-grade materials we provide, and they simply don’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. If DIY repair kits were truly effective, we wouldn’t have stayed in business as long as we have!

What is the lifespan of a bath crack repair?

While most repairs last for the duration of your bath, we cannot guarantee repairs with extensive cracks or structural damage, as the bath’s lifespan may be unpredictable.

Below are some examples of what our customers have to say about us

“I had a huge crack in my bath and was stressing about finding someone to replace it. A friend recommended Surface Doctor London for repairs instead, and I’m so glad they did. The technician did an incredible job and we were able to use the bath again the very next day. I’m so relieved we didn’t have to replace the whole bath. Thanks for the fast service and amazing repair!”

“I found a crack in the bath at one of my BTL properties after the tenants left, and it caused leaking and water damage. Surface Doctor was able to repair the crack and seal it, making it watertight and eliminating the leaks! This saved me a lot of hassle compared to redoing the whole bathroom. I’ll always turn to Surface Doctor for repairs now.”
