We can repair cracks in your bath at a fraction of the price of replacing your bath! Cracks in your bath can cause leaks and worsen, leaving your bath unusable until it is fixed.

At Surface Doctor Eastbourne, we specialize in fast, affordable bath crack repairs without replacing the entire bath. Get in touch with us now for a free quote, with no obligation!

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. Most times the crack is just superficial and can be repaired to a high 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 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! 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.

Repairing your bath is an environmentally friendly and cost-effective choice, reducing waste.

Bath Crack Repair Colour Matching

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. We use specialized tinters to create a custom enamel paint that matches your bath’s exact shade of white for a flawless repair. The technician uses specialized tinters to create the exact shade of white needed for your bath.

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. 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. Matching the enamel colour perfectly requires a high level of skill and years of experience. We mix your new enamel colour on the day to ensure the colour matches your bath or shower tray’s exact white shade. With years of experience in colour matching, our technicians will ensure a perfect result.

At Surface Doctor, we only use the highest quality, professional-grade materials, including our special adhesive bonder that ensures the repair adheres perfectly to your bath's surface. Most cracks will need to be supported from beneath, filled, and sealed to make the bath watertight before the new enamel is applied. The technician will handle all these steps before applying the colour-matched new enamel to ensure a perfect result. No steps will be skipped, ensuring a long-lasting repair that’s as durable as the rest of your bath.

Complete Procedure, Step by Step:

1. Our technician will inspect the crack to see if it is easily repairable, or if it is 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 crack will be filled in and smoothed out so that it’s no longer noticeable.

4. Next, the technician will apply a specialised bonder to the repair, preparing it for the next stage.

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. Leave your bath for 24 hours before using it so the repair can fully cure and set.

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

What’s the time frame for completing a bath crack repair?

DIY vs. professional bath crack repair in Eastbourne

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!

Our goal is to provide the highest quality repair and outstanding customer service, ensuring you're completely satisfied with the result. Most of our repairs won’t be noticeable with everyday 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. DIY kits use inferior materials compared to the professional-grade materials we provide, and they simply don’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 as effective as advertised, we wouldn’t be here offering professional repairs!

What’s the expected duration 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.

"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!"
BN - Eastbourne,East-Sussex
“After finding a crack in the bath at one of my BTL properties, I noticed it had led to leaks and water damage underneath. Surface Doctor was able to repair the crack and seal it, making it watertight and stopping the leaks! It saved me the headache of redoing the whole bathroom. I’ll always call Surface Doctor for any future repairs.”
GM - Eastbourne, East-Sussex
