Instead of replacing your bath, we can repair cracks at a much lower cost! 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 Herne Bay, 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!
All of our technicians have many years of experience repairing cracked baths and they know how to spot when the damage is easily repairable, or if it does unfortunately need to be replaced. Most times the crack is just superficial and can be repaired to a high 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. Our technicians are adept at identifying the type of crack and deciding the best course of action for your bath. If the bath is repairable, our technicians follow a precise process to deliver a top-tier repair that seamlessly matches the rest of the bath. The repair process involves colour-matching the enamel paint to your bath’s exact shade, ensuring the repair is virtually undetectable. This skill requires years of practice and experience, which our technicians have mastered.
1. The crack will be inspected by our technician to assess whether it is easily repairable or 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. The technician will clean the damaged area and reinforce the crack from below the bath to make it watertight. 3. The next step is to fill in the crack and smooth it out so you can't feel it anymore. 4. The technician will then apply our custom bonder to the repair to get it ready for the next step. 5. The technician will match a new enamel paint to your bath’s exact white shade for a seamless blend, and it will 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. Relax and use your bath like normal, no need for costly replacement!
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!
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. Many customers ask why they should choose us instead of using a cheap DIY repair kit, and we tell them to give it a try but call us when it doesn’t work. DIY repair kits use subpar materials compared to the professional-grade materials we use, and their results don’t last as long. A true colour match is challenging with DIY kits, as they provide just one or two shades of white, which won’t match your bath's exact shade. Simply put, if DIY kits worked properly, we wouldn’t have a business.How long will 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.
