We can repair cracks in your bath at a fraction of the price of replacing your bath! When you notice a crack in your bath, it’s a big inconvenience, as it may leak or get worse over time. Removing and replacing your entire bath, including fixing the damage to tiles and walls, can quickly turn into a costly, unexpected bill. Instead of replacing your whole bath, Surface Doctor Newhaven can repair the crack quickly and efficiently. Contact us now for a free, no-obligation quote!

All of our expert technicians are highly experienced in bath crack repairs and can assess whether the crack is repairable or if replacement is necessary. Most cracks are merely superficial and can be repaired to look like new. 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 experts are trained to evaluate the type of crack and determine whether it can be effectively 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! To ensure the repair looks flawless, our technicians will match the enamel paint to your bath’s exact colour on-site. This skill requires years of practice and experience, which our technicians have mastered.

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! Repairing your bath is both an environmentally conscious and cost-effective decision, cutting down on wastage.

Expert Colour Matching for Bath Crack Repairs

A key step in bath repairs is colour matching the enamel paint. Since baths come in different shades of white, pre-made paint will never match your bath's colour exactly. 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.

Many DIY repair kits offer only one or two shades of white paint, but they won't match your bath’s exact white shade. 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. Creating a flawless colour match is a skill that requires years of experience. We mix your new enamel colour on the day to ensure the colour matches your bath or shower tray’s exact white shade. Our technicians have many years of experience colour matching in this way so your bath will be in capable hands with us.

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. Most cracks will need to be supported from beneath, filled, and sealed to make the bath watertight before the new enamel is applied. So our technician will do all of these steps before spraying on the colour-matched new enamel to your bath. No steps will be skipped, ensuring a long-lasting repair that’s as durable as the rest of your bath.

Full Step By Step Procedure:

1. The crack will be inspected by our technician to assess whether it is easily repairable or structural. For structural damage, we advise against repairing it, and if you proceed with a repair, we cannot provide a warranty.

2. Next, the technician will clean the area and reinforce the crack from underneath the bath to ensure 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. It’s important to leave your bath for 24 hours to allow the repair to fully cure and set.

7. Relax and use your bath like normal, no need for costly replacement!

Your bath crack repair will take between 1-2 hours and half a day, depending on the crack's extent and whether it’s structural. It's much faster 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.

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.

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. DIY repair kits use subpar materials compared to the professional-grade materials we use, and their results don’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 as effective as advertised, we wouldn’t be here offering professional repairs!

What is the lifespan of a bath crack repair?

Most repairs will last for the duration of your bath. But sometimes with an extensive crack or structural damage we won't be able to put a guarantee on your repair as it will be hard to judge how long the bath will last.

“I had a major crack in my bath and didn’t want to deal with replacing it. A friend recommended Surface Doctor London, and I’m so happy they did!
