We can fix cracks in your bath without the high cost of a full replacement! When you find a crack in your bath, it is such a hassle as you now can't use your bath due to it leaking or the crack potentially getting worse. Replacing the entire bath, including repairing surrounding tiles and walls, can be a costly and unexpected expense. At Surface Doctor Hitchin, we offer quick repairs for cracks in your bath, no replacement necessary. Contact us now for a free, no-obligation quote!
Our technicians have years of expertise in cracked bath repairs, knowing when damage can be repaired or when replacement is the better option. In most cases, the crack is 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 experts are trained to evaluate the type of crack and determine whether it can be effectively repaired. When repair is an option, our technicians use an expert procedure to achieve a smooth, high-quality repair that you won’t notice. Our technicians will match the enamel paint to your bath’s exact colour to make sure the repair is seamless. Our technicians have perfected this precise skill after years of experience and practice.
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. Next, the technician will clean the area and reinforce the crack from underneath the bath to ensure it's watertight. 3. The next step is to fill in the crack and smooth it out so you can't feel it anymore. 4. To prepare for the next step, the technician will apply our specially formulated bonder to the repair. 5. A new enamel paint will be colour matched to the exact shade of white of your bath to make sure that it blends in seamlessly. This will be sprayed on to 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. Enjoy your bath as usual, knowing you won’t have to replace it!
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 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. 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!What is the lifespan of a bath crack repair?
Most repairs will last for the duration of your bath. But sometimes with an extensive crack or structural damage we won't be able to put a guarantee on your repair as it will be hard to judge how long the bath will last.
