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. At Surface Doctor Ilkeston, we can repair the crack in your bath quickly without needing to replace the whole bath. Call today for a free, no-obligation quote!
With years of experience, our technicians are skilled in determining whether a cracked bath can be repaired or needs to be replaced. In many instances, the crack is superficial and can be repaired seamlessly. Occasionally, the crack will be structural, affecting the bath’s integrity or due to poor installation, in which case we don’t recommend repairing it, as the crack may reappear. Our technicians are experts at assessing the damage to determine what type of crack your bath has. Our technicians use a specialized procedure to achieve a repair of the highest quality, making it undetectable. 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. In cases of structural damage, we’ll advise not repairing it, and a warranty won’t be offered if you choose to proceed.
2. The technician will then clean the area and reinforce the crack from the underside of the bath to make sure it's watertight. 3. The next step involves filling in the crack and smoothing it out so it’s perfectly smooth to the touch. 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. Leave your bath for 24 hours before using it so the repair can 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!
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.
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’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 issue with DIY repair kits is that the materials are of much lower quality than the professional-grade materials we use, and they won’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 were truly effective, we wouldn’t have stayed in business as long as we have!How durable is 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.
