Repairing cracks in your bath is much more affordable than replacing the whole bath! Cracks in your bath can cause leaks and worsen, leaving your bath unusable until it is fixed. Quotes for ripping out and replacing the bath, plus fixing the surrounding tiles and walls, are typically a high, unplanned expense. At Surface Doctor Haslingden, we can repair the crack in your bath quickly without needing to replace the whole bath. Call today for a free, no-obligation 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. Often, the crack is cosmetic and can be fixed to an excellent standard. If the crack is structural, meaning it affects the bath's framework or is due to installation issues, we don't recommend repairs since the crack could come back. We specialize in assessing bath damage to determine whether the crack is repairable or structural. 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.
1. Our technician will assess the crack to determine if it’s easily repairable or if it’s a structural issue. 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 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. Next, the technician will apply a specialised bonder to the repair, preparing it for the next stage. 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. For the repair to fully cure and set, leave your bath unused for 24 hours. 7. Use your bath as you normally would and relax, without the hassle of replacement!
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!
At Surface Doctor, we aim for top-quality repairs and excellent service, ensuring you're happy with your repair. The majority of our repairs won’t be visible during normal use 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. We’re often asked why to choose us over a DIY repair kit, and we always say try it, but reach out to us when it doesn’t work out. 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. If DIY repair kits worked as well as claimed, we wouldn’t still be in 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.
