Homeowner bath crack repair solution in Northfleet Bathroom renovation with crack repair in Northfleet

We can repair cracks in your bath at a fraction of the price of replacing your bath! Finding a crack in your bath is a hassle, as it can lead to leaks and worsen over time, making your bath unusable. Replacing the entire bath, including repairing surrounding tiles and walls, can be a costly and unexpected expense. At Surface Doctor Northfleet, we specialize in fast, affordable bath crack repairs without replacing the entire bath. Contact us now for a free, no-obligation quote!

Our technicians have years of expertise in cracked bath repairs, knowing when damage can be repaired or when replacement is the better option. In many instances, the crack is superficial and can be repaired seamlessly. When the crack is structural, affecting the bath's integrity or caused by poor installation, it’s best not to repair it as the crack may reoccur. 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! 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!

Bath Crack Repair Colour Matching

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. We use specialized tinters to create a custom enamel paint that matches your bath’s exact shade of white for a flawless repair. 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. Baths, sinks, shower trays, and white tiles all come in various shades of white, with the original shade being affected by the age and wear of the bath.

Our technician customizes the enamel colour on-site to ensure the repair matches your bath perfectly. This is a precise skill which takes years of practice to get right. 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 extensive experience in colour matching, so your bath is in skilled hands.

We always use the highest quality professional grade materials available - such as our special adhesive bonder which makes your repair stick to the surface of your bath. The crack will most likely need to be supported from underneath and filled in and sealed to make sure the bath is watertight before the new enamel is sprayed on top. The technician will handle all these steps before applying the colour-matched new enamel to ensure a perfect result. No steps will be skipped, ensuring a long-lasting repair that’s as durable as the rest of your bath.

Complete Step-by-Step Guide:

1. Our technician will assess the crack to determine if it’s easily repairable or if it’s a structural issue. 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 then clean the area and reinforce the crack from the underside of the bath to make sure it's watertight.

3. Next, we’ll fill the crack and smooth it over to ensure it’s completely seamless.

4. To prepare for the next step, the technician will apply our specially formulated bonder to the repair.

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. Make sure to leave your bath for 24 hours before using it so the repair has time to cure and set.

7. Enjoy your bath as usual, knowing you won’t have to replace it!

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

Bathroom renovation with crack repair in Northfleet

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.

At Surface Doctor, we use only the highest quality materials, available exclusively on a commercial level, ensuring no corners are cut during your repair. Our technicians will perform a bath crack repair, colour matched to your bath by eye, guaranteeing the best possible result. Once the repair is complete, you’ll be amazed at the flawless finish.

Some of our customers have asked why should they choose us over using a cheap DIY repair kit themselves, and we always say they're welcome to give it a go, but give us a call when it doesn't work out. The materials in DIY repair kits are of lower quality than the professional materials we use, meaning the repairs won’t last as long. Achieving a true colour match with a DIY repair kit is nearly impossible, as they only offer one or two shades of white for repairs. Simply put - if the DIY repair kits worked so well, we would no longer be in business!

How durable is a bath crack repair?

Most of our repairs are long-lasting, but with significant cracks or structural damage, we cannot provide a guarantee since it’s difficult to assess the bath’s durability.
