Instead of replacing your bath, we can repair cracks at a much lower cost! When you find a crack in your bath, it is such a hassle as you now can't use your bath due to it leaking or the crack potentially getting worse. 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 Newbridge, 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. Most cracks are merely superficial and can be repaired to look like new. If the crack is structural, meaning it affects the bath's framework or is due to installation issues, we don't recommend repairs since the crack could come back. Our technicians are experts at assessing the damage to determine what type of crack your bath has. When repairs are possible, our technicians follow a specialized process to ensure a flawless repair that blends seamlessly into the bath. 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. The crack will be inspected by our technician to assess whether it is easily repairable or structural. If it’s found to be structural damage, we won’t recommend repairing it and will not offer a warranty on any repair.
2. The technician will clean the damaged area and reinforce the crack from below the bath to make it watertight. 3. Next, we’ll fill the crack and smooth it over to ensure it’s completely seamless. 4. Our technician will apply a specialised bonder to the repair in preparation for the following step. 5. We’ll match the new enamel paint to the exact white of your bath to ensure a flawless finish, applying it with a fine spray gun. 6. Allow your bath to set for 24 hours before using it to ensure the repair fully cures. 7. Enjoy your bath as usual, knowing you won’t have to replace it!
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!
At Surface Doctor, we aim for top-quality repairs and excellent service, ensuring you're happy with your repair. The majority of our repairs won’t be visible during normal use of your bath.
We only use the best materials, which are only available commercially, ensuring no compromises are made on your repair. Our technicians will colour match your bath crack repair by eye for a flawless finish. You’ll be amazed by how great the repair looks once it's done. 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 the DIY repair kits worked so well, we would no longer be in business!What is the lifespan of a bath crack repair?
While most repairs last for the duration of your bath, we cannot guarantee repairs with extensive cracks or structural damage, as the bath’s lifespan may be unpredictable.
