Repairing cracks in your bath is much more affordable than replacing the whole bath! A crack in your bath can prevent you from using it due to leaks or the risk of the crack spreading. Replacing the entire bath, including repairing surrounding tiles and walls, can be a costly and unexpected expense. At Surface Doctor Farnham, we can repair the crack in your bath quickly without needing to replace the whole bath. 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. 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 experienced technicians are skilled at determining the type of crack in your bath and whether it can be repaired. When repair is an option, our technicians use an expert procedure to achieve a smooth, high-quality repair that you won’t 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 is a very precise skill and takes many years of practice and experience to perfect - which luckily all our technicians have!
1. The crack will be inspected by our technician to assess whether it is easily repairable or 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. The technician will clean the surface and then strengthen the crack from the underside to ensure the bath remains watertight. 3. The next step involves filling in the crack and smoothing it out so it’s perfectly smooth to the touch. 4. Next, the technician will apply a specialised bonder to the repair, preparing it for the next stage. 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. It’s important to leave your bath for 24 hours to allow the repair to fully cure and set. 7. Use your bath as you normally would and relax, without the hassle of replacement!
Depending on the extent of the crack and if it is structural - your repair will take anywhere from 1-2 hours to half a day. Much faster 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.
We only use the best materials, which are only available commercially, ensuring no compromises are made on your repair. Our technicians will colour match your bath crack repair by eye for a flawless finish. You’ll be amazed by how great the repair looks once it's done. 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 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. If DIY repair kits were as effective as advertised, we wouldn’t be here offering professional repairs!How long will a bath crack repair last?
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.
