We can fix cracks in your bath without the high cost of a full replacement! A crack in your bath can prevent you from using it due to leaks or the risk of the crack spreading.

At Surface Doctor Heswall, we can repair the crack in your bath quickly without needing to replace the whole bath. Contact us now for a free, no-obligation quote!
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. In some cases, the crack is structural, meaning it impacts the bath’s strength or was caused by improper installation; in these cases, we advise against repairs as the crack may return. 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. 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 precise repair method takes years of practice to perfect, and our technicians are highly skilled in it.
1. The technician will evaluate the crack to determine whether it can be easily repaired or if it’s structural. If it's structural damage, we wouldn't recommend repairing it, so if you choose to go ahead with a repair we won't offer a warranty for this.
2. The technician will clean the surface and then strengthen the crack from the underside to ensure the bath remains watertight. 3. The crack will be filled in and smoothed out so that it’s no longer noticeable. 4. Our technician will apply a specialised bonder to the repair in preparation for the following 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. Use your bath like normal and relax knowing you don't have to rip it out and replace it!
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 focus is on delivering the highest standard of repairs and providing excellent customer service, so you’re fully satisfied. Most of our repairs will be unnoticeable during regular use 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. 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 materials in DIY repair kits are of lower quality than the professional materials we use, meaning the repairs 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. Simply put, if DIY kits worked properly, we wouldn’t have a business.What’s the expected duration of a bath crack repair?
For most repairs, the results will last as long as your bath, but in cases of extensive cracks or structural damage, we cannot offer a guarantee due to the uncertainty of how long the bath will remain intact.
