We can repair cracks in your bath at a fraction of the price of replacing your bath! Cracks in your bath can cause leaks and worsen, leaving your bath unusable until it is fixed. Removing and replacing your entire bath, including fixing the damage to tiles and walls, can quickly turn into a costly, unexpected bill. At Surface Doctor Littlehampton, 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 most cases, the crack is superficial and can be repaired to a high standard. In some cases, the crack is structural, meaning it impacts the bath’s strength or was caused by improper installation; in these cases, we advise against repairs as the crack may return. 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! To ensure the repair looks flawless, our technicians will match the enamel paint to your bath’s exact colour on-site. Our technicians have perfected this precise skill after years of experience and practice.

This repair option is not only economical but also environmentally friendly, reducing unnecessary waste.

Precise Colour Matching for Bath Crack Repairs

For the best repair, we ensure the enamel paint is colour-matched precisely to your bath. Since all baths are different shades of white, pre-made paint won’t suffice. Our technician will mix a custom enamel paint to match your bath's exact shade of white, ensuring a seamless repair. Specialised tinters are used to create a custom colour match for your bath’s enamel paint.

Most DIY repair kits only offer a couple of white shades, which won’t perfectly match your bath’s original colour. The white of your bath, shower tray, sink, or tiles can differ depending on age and use, as there are numerous shades of white.

On the day of the repair, our technician will match a new enamel colour to your bath to ensure the repair blends perfectly. This precise colour matching process takes years of practice to perfect. 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. Our technicians have extensive experience in colour matching, so your bath is in skilled hands.

To ensure a lasting repair, we use top-tier, professional-grade materials, such as our unique adhesive bonder that ensures a strong bond to your bath surface. Most cracks will need to be supported from beneath, filled, and sealed to make the bath watertight before the new enamel is applied. The technician will handle all these steps before applying the colour-matched new enamel to ensure a perfect result. Our technician ensures every step is done thoroughly, so you can trust the repair will last just as long as your bath.

Detailed Step-by-Step Process:

1. Our technician will examine the crack to identify whether it's repairable or if it’s a structural issue. For structural damage, we advise against repairing it, and if you proceed with a repair, we cannot provide a warranty.

2. The technician will clean the surface and then strengthen the crack from the underside to ensure the bath remains watertight.

3. The next step involves filling in the crack and smoothing it out so it’s perfectly smooth to the touch.

4. Next, the technician will apply a specialised bonder to the repair, preparing it for the next stage.

5. A custom enamel paint will be colour matched to your bath’s exact white shade, ensuring the repair blends seamlessly. This will be applied 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!

What’s the time frame for completing a bath crack repair?

Shower and bath crack repair experts in Littlehampton

Depending on the size and type of crack, the repair will take 1-2 hours to half a day. This is far quicker than the hassle of removing and replacing your bath!

Our focus is on delivering the highest standard of repairs and providing excellent customer service, so you’re fully satisfied. Most of our repairs will be unnoticeable during regular use 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.

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!

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.

"I had an awful crack on my bath and was so worried trying to find a tradesman to replace it for me. My friend suggested Surface Doctor London to repair it instead and I'm so relieved your technician was able to do such a fantastic repair on my bath. We could use the bath again the next day and it has been such a relief to not have to get the whole bath replaced. Really grateful for your fast service and repairing my bath!"
