Repairing cracks in your bath is much more affordable than replacing the whole bath! When you notice a crack in your bath, it’s a big inconvenience, as it may leak or get worse over time. Quotes for ripping out and replacing the bath, plus fixing the surrounding tiles and walls, are typically a high, unplanned expense. Instead of replacing your whole bath, Surface Doctor Chorleywood can repair the crack quickly and efficiently. Contact us now for a free, no-obligation quote!
All of our technicians have many years of experience repairing cracked baths and they know how to spot when the damage is easily repairable, or if it does unfortunately need 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 adept at identifying the type of crack and deciding the best course of action for your bath. When repair is an option, our technicians use an expert procedure to achieve a smooth, high-quality repair that you won’t notice. 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. Our technician will examine the crack to identify whether it's 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 then clean the area and reinforce the crack from the underside of the bath to make sure it's watertight. 3. Next, we’ll fill the crack and smooth it over to ensure it’s completely seamless. 4. To prepare for the next step, the technician will apply our specially formulated bonder to the repair. 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. Use your bath like normal and relax knowing you don't have to rip it out and replace it!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!
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. Many customers ask why they should choose us instead of using a cheap DIY repair kit, and we tell them to give it a try but call us when it doesn’t work. 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. Achieving a true colour match with a DIY repair kit is nearly impossible, as they only offer one or two shades of white for repairs. Simply put, if DIY kits worked properly, we wouldn’t have a business.What is the lifespan of a bath crack repair?
Typically, our repairs last for the entire lifespan of your bath. However, with severe cracks or structural damage, we can’t guarantee the repair as it’s hard to predict the bath’s longevity.
