Repairing cracks in your bath is much more affordable than replacing the whole bath! Finding a crack in your bath is a hassle, as it can lead to leaks and worsen over time, making your bath unusable. Quotes to rip out the whole bath and replace it, along with fixing the damage caused to the surrounding tiles and walls during this, will most likely be a costly and unplanned for expense. At Surface Doctor Horsham, we can repair the crack in your bath quickly without needing to replace the whole bath. Call us now for a no-obligation free quote!
All of our expert technicians are highly experienced in bath crack repairs and can assess whether the crack is repairable or if replacement is necessary. 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 technicians are experts at assessing the damage to determine what type of crack your bath has. When we are able to repair your bath, our technicians have a specialised procedure they use to achieve a top standard repair that you won't be able to notice! To ensure the repair looks flawless, our technicians will match the enamel paint to your bath’s exact colour on-site. This skill requires years of practice and experience, which our technicians have mastered.
1. Our technician will examine the crack to identify whether it's repairable or if it’s a structural issue. 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. After cleaning the area, the technician will reinforce the crack from underneath the bath to guarantee 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. Then the technician will apply our specialised bonder to the repair in preparation for the next step. 5. The technician will colour match a new enamel paint to your bath’s exact shade of white, ensuring it blends perfectly. It will then be sprayed onto the repair using a fine spray gun. 6. For the repair to fully cure and set, leave your bath unused for 24 hours. 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!
Our goal is to provide the highest quality repair and outstanding customer service, ensuring you're completely satisfied with the result. Most of our repairs won’t be noticeable with everyday use of your bath.
Using only the best commercial-grade materials, we ensure your repair is of the highest quality. Our technicians colour match your bath crack repair by eye, guaranteeing a perfect result. When you see your finished repair, you'll be impressed by how well it blends in. 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. 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. 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.
