Repairing cracks in your bath is much more affordable than replacing the whole bath! A crack in your bath can prevent you from using it due to leaks or the risk of the crack spreading. The cost of ripping out and replacing your bath, along with the repairs to surrounding tiles and walls, is usually a significant, unplanned expense. At Surface Doctor Kilkeel, we specialize in fast, affordable bath crack repairs without replacing the entire bath. Call now for your 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 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 experienced technicians are skilled at determining the type of crack in your bath and whether it can be repaired. 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! The repair process involves colour-matching the enamel paint to your bath’s exact shade, ensuring the repair is virtually undetectable. This is a very precise skill and takes many years of practice and experience to perfect - which luckily all our technicians have!

When you choose Surface Doctor Kilkeel, you're choosing a team with years of experience in the repair industry to handle all your hard surface repair needs.

Bath replacement is not only costly and time-consuming, but it also adds unnecessary waste to your local landfill. Repairing your bath with us means it will be ready to use again within 24 hours! It's also environmentally friendly and economical as it means less wastage.

Bath Crack Repair Colour Matching

One of the most essential steps in bath repairs is achieving a perfect colour match for the enamel paint. All baths vary in their shade of white, so pre-made paint won’t work. Our technician custom creates the enamel paint on-site to match your bath’s exact shade of white, ensuring a perfect colour match. This is achieved using specialised tinters for the perfect match.

Some DIY repair kits come with just one or two white shades, which won’t match the unique white of your bath. Your bath’s white shade may vary due to age and usage, and there are many shades of white for baths, sinks, and tiles.

To ensure the repair blends seamlessly, our technician will create a custom enamel colour on the day of the repair. Achieving the perfect colour match is a precise skill that takes years of practice. This is why we have to create your new enamel colour on the day - to make sure the colour matches the shade of white of your bath or shower tray exactly. With years of experience in colour matching, our technicians will ensure a perfect result.

At Surface Doctor, we only use the highest quality, professional-grade materials, including our special adhesive bonder that ensures the repair adheres perfectly to your bath's surface. To guarantee a watertight repair, the crack will be supported from below, filled, and sealed before we apply the new enamel. The technician will handle all these steps before applying the colour-matched new enamel to ensure a perfect result. Our technician follows every necessary step, ensuring the repair lasts for years, just like the rest of your bath.

Our Full Step-by-Step Procedure:

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. After cleaning the area, the technician will reinforce the crack from underneath the bath to guarantee 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. The technician will then apply our custom bonder to the repair to get it ready 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. Enjoy your bath as usual, knowing you won’t have to replace it!

What is the duration of a bath crack repair?

Fast and efficient bath crack repair in Kilkeel

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. 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 difficult to achieve with DIY kits, as they only provide one or two shades of white for your repair. If DIY repair kits worked as well as claimed, we wouldn’t still be in 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.
