Repairing cracks in your bath is much more affordable than replacing the whole bath! Finding a crack in your bath is a hassle, as it can lead to leaks and worsen over time, making your bath unusable. Quotes to rip out the whole bath and replace it, along with fixing the damage caused to the surrounding tiles and walls during this, will most likely be a costly and unplanned for expense. Surface Doctor Congleton can fix the crack in your bath efficiently, saving you the hassle and cost of full replacement. Call us now for a no-obligation free quote!

Our technicians have extensive experience repairing cracked baths, and they can quickly assess whether the damage can be repaired or if the bath needs to be replaced. In most cases, the crack is superficial and can be repaired to a high standard. Sometimes the crack will be structural - meaning it is actually affecting the structure of the bath or it was improperly installed in the first place which will have caused it to crack - in these cases we don't recommend having it repaired as the crack may come back. Our technicians are adept at identifying the type of crack and deciding the best course of action for your bath. When we are able to repair your bath, our technicians have a specialised procedure they use to achieve a top standard repair that you won't be able to notice! Our technicians will match the enamel paint to your bath’s exact colour to make sure the repair is seamless. Achieving such a perfect repair requires precision and years of practice, something our technicians have mastered.

Our team is ready to help you with any of your hard surface repair needs! With years of experience in the repair industry, you'll be in capable hands when you choose Surface Doctor Congleton to do your repair.

Replacing your bath can be time-consuming and expensive, plus it contributes more waste to the local landfill. By choosing to repair your bath with us, it will be fully usable within 24 hours! It's also environmentally friendly and economical as it means less wastage.

Bath Crack Repair Colour Matching

One of the most essential steps in bath repairs is achieving a perfect colour match for the enamel paint. All baths vary in their shade of white, so pre-made paint won’t work. 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.

Most DIY repair kits only offer a couple of white shades, which won’t perfectly match your bath’s original colour. The white of your bath, shower tray, sink, or tiles can differ depending on age and use, as there are numerous shades of white.

On the day of the repair, our technician will match a new enamel colour to your bath to ensure the repair blends perfectly. This precise colour matching process takes years of practice to perfect. 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.

Our materials are of the highest professional grade, including an exclusive adhesive bonder that guarantees the repair stays firmly in place. Before spraying on the new enamel, the crack will need to be supported from underneath, filled in, and sealed to ensure the bath is watertight. 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 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. The next step involves filling in the crack and smoothing it out so it’s perfectly smooth to the touch.

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

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. For the repair to fully cure and set, leave your bath unused for 24 hours.

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?

Bathroom renovation with crack repair in Congleton

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!

Our focus is on delivering the highest standard of repairs and providing excellent customer service, so you’re fully satisfied. Most of our repairs will be unnoticeable during regular use 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.

Some of our customers have asked why should they choose us over using a cheap DIY repair kit themselves, and we always say they're welcome to give it a go, but give us a call when it doesn't work out. The issue with DIY repair kits is that the materials are of much lower quality than the professional-grade materials we use, and they won’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. Simply put, if DIY kits worked properly, we wouldn’t have a business.

How long does a bath crack repair last?

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.

Bath Crack Repair - Amazing Result

"I had an awful crack in my bath and was really worried I would have to replace the whole thing. A friend suggested Surface Doctor Congleton and I’m so glad I contacted them. The technician repaired the crack brilliantly and you can hardly see where the damage was. The bath was ready to use again shortly afterwards and it saved me the cost and hassle of replacing it. Really impressed with the service!"
