We can fix cracks in your bath without the high cost of a full replacement! 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. At Surface Doctor Ealing, 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!

Our technicians have years of expertise in cracked bath repairs, knowing when damage can be repaired or when replacement is the better option. In most cases, the crack is superficial and can be repaired to a high standard. When the crack is structural, affecting the bath's integrity or caused by poor installation, it’s best not to repair it as the crack may reoccur. Our experts are trained to evaluate the type of crack and determine whether it can be effectively repaired. Our technicians use a specialized procedure to achieve a repair of the highest quality, making it undetectable. To ensure the repair looks flawless, our technicians will match the enamel paint to your bath’s exact colour on-site. This precise repair method takes years of practice to perfect, and our technicians are highly skilled in it.

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. Our technician custom creates the enamel paint on-site to match your bath’s exact shade of white, ensuring a perfect colour match. 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.

To achieve a seamless repair, our technician will mix a new enamel colour on the day of the repair. This is a precise skill which takes years of practice to get right. We create the enamel colour on the day to guarantee it matches the exact shade of white of your bath or shower tray. Our technicians have many years of experience colour matching in this way so your bath will be in capable hands with us.

We use only the best professional-grade materials, like our specialized adhesive bonder, to ensure your repair sticks firmly to the bath surface. The crack will require support from underneath, filling, and sealing to ensure the bath remains watertight before we apply the new enamel. So our technician will do all of these steps before spraying on the colour-matched new enamel to your bath. Our technician follows every necessary step, ensuring the repair lasts for years, just like the rest of your bath.

Detailed Step-by-Step Process:

1. Our technician will inspect the crack to see if it is easily repairable, or if it is structural. In cases of structural damage, we’ll advise not repairing it, and a warranty won’t be offered if you choose to proceed.

2. After cleaning the area, the technician will reinforce the crack from underneath the bath to guarantee 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. Our technician will apply a specialised bonder to the repair in preparation for the following step.

5. A custom enamel paint will be colour matched to your bath’s exact white shade, ensuring the repair blends seamlessly. This will be applied 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!

How much time does a bath crack repair take?

Depending on the size and type of crack, the repair will take 1-2 hours to half a day. This is far quicker than the hassle of removing and replacing your 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.

At Surface Doctor, we use only the highest quality materials, available exclusively on a commercial level, ensuring no corners are cut during your repair. Our technicians will perform a bath crack repair, colour matched to your bath by eye, guaranteeing the best possible result. Once the repair is complete, you’ll be amazed at the flawless finish.

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. 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. If DIY repair kits were truly effective, we wouldn’t have stayed in business as long as we have!

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

Most of our repairs are long-lasting, but with significant cracks or structural damage, we cannot provide a guarantee since it’s difficult to assess the bath’s durability.

"I had an awful crack on my bath and was so worried trying to find a tradesman to replace it for me. My friend suggested Surface Doctor London to repair it instead and I'm so relieved your technician was able to do such a fantastic repair on my bath. We could use the bath again the next day and it has been such a relief to not have to get the whole bath replaced. Really grateful for your fast service and repairing my bath!"

“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.”
