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. 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 experts at assessing the damage to determine what type of crack your bath has. Our technicians use a specialized procedure to achieve a repair of the highest quality, making it undetectable. They will colour match a new enamel paint to your exact bath on the day to make sure the new repair blends into your bath seamlessly. Achieving such a perfect repair requires precision and years of practice, something our technicians have mastered.

Expert Colour Matching for Bath Crack Repairs

A key step in bath repairs is colour matching the enamel paint. Since baths come in different shades of white, pre-made paint will never match your bath's colour exactly. 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.

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.

On the day of the repair, our technician will match a new enamel colour to your bath to ensure the repair blends perfectly. Creating a flawless colour match is a skill that requires years of experience. This is why we create the enamel colour on the day, to ensure it perfectly matches the exact white shade of your bath or shower tray. With years of experience in colour matching, our technicians will ensure a perfect result.

We always use the highest quality professional grade materials available - such as our special adhesive bonder which makes your repair stick to the surface of your bath. 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. All these steps will be completed by our technician before the final layer of colour-matched enamel is sprayed onto your bath. We don’t cut corners, so you can be confident that the repair will last as long as your bath’s original surface.

Complete Step-by-Step Guide:

1. Our technician will inspect the crack to see if it is easily repairable, or if it is structural. If it’s found to be structural damage, we won’t recommend repairing it and will not offer a warranty on any repair.

2. After cleaning the area, the technician will reinforce the crack from underneath the bath to guarantee it's watertight.

3. The crack will be filled in and smoothed out so that it’s no longer noticeable.

4. The technician will then apply our custom bonder to the repair to get it ready 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. It’s important to leave your bath for 24 hours to allow the repair to fully cure and set.

7. Relax and use your bath like normal, no need for costly replacement!

What is the duration of a bath crack repair?

On-site bathtub crack repair in Hemel-Hempstead

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!

We always aim to achieve the highest quality repair possible, with excellent customer service, so you feel totally happy with your repair. The majority of our repairs will not be noticeable with normal usage 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.

When customers ask why they should choose our services over a DIY repair kit, we suggest they try it out but contact us when it fails to deliver. DIY repair kits use subpar materials compared to the professional-grade materials we use, and their results 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 worked as well as claimed, we wouldn’t still be in business!

How durable is 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.

Below are some reviews from our satisfied customers

"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 moved out, and it had caused some leaking and water damage to the floor underneath the bathroom. Surface Doctor were able to repair the crack and seal it so it’s now watertight and there are no more leaks! It saved a lot of agro over having to re-do the whole bathroom. I’ll always use Surface Doctor when I need to get a repair done now."
