Instead of replacing your bath, we can repair cracks at a much lower cost! 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. Surface Doctor Ilfracombe can fix the crack in your bath efficiently, saving you the hassle and cost of full replacement. Call us now for a no-obligation free quote!
With years of experience, our technicians are skilled in determining whether a cracked bath can be repaired or needs to be replaced. In most cases, the crack is superficial and can be repaired to a high standard. When the crack is structural, affecting the bath's integrity or caused by poor installation, it’s best not to repair it as the crack may reoccur. We specialize in assessing bath damage to determine whether the crack is repairable or structural. 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! 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. This is a very precise skill and takes many years of practice and experience to perfect - which luckily all our technicians have!
1. Our technician will assess the crack to determine if it’s easily repairable or if it’s a structural issue. If the damage is structural, we do not recommend proceeding with repairs, and in such cases, no warranty will be offered.
2. After cleaning the area, the technician will reinforce the crack from underneath the bath to guarantee it's watertight. 3. We’ll fill the crack and smooth the surface so that it feels as if the crack never existed. 4. To prepare for the next step, the technician will apply our specially formulated bonder to the repair. 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. Enjoy your bath as usual, knowing you won’t have to 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!
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. 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. The problem with the DIY repair kits is the quality of the materials they provide are totally substandard to the professional grade materials we use, and they won'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.What’s the expected duration of a bath crack repair?
Typically, our repairs last for the entire lifespan of your bath. However, with severe cracks or structural damage, we can’t guarantee the repair as it’s hard to predict the bath’s longevity.
