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. Surface Doctor Morningside can fix the crack in your bath efficiently, saving you the hassle and cost of full replacement. 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. Our experienced technicians are skilled at determining the type of crack in your bath and whether it can be repaired. If the bath is repairable, our technicians follow a precise process to deliver a top-tier repair that seamlessly matches the rest of the bath. On the day of the repair, they will colour match new enamel paint to your bath to ensure the repair blends perfectly with the original surface. 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. In cases of structural damage, we’ll advise not repairing it, and a warranty won’t be offered if you choose to proceed.
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. A new enamel paint will be colour matched to the exact shade of white of your bath to make sure that it blends in seamlessly. This will be sprayed on to 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. Feel at ease using your bath again, with no need 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!
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.
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 materials in DIY repair kits are of lower quality than the professional materials we use, meaning the repairs 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 were as effective as advertised, we wouldn’t be here offering professional repairs!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.
