Instead of replacing your bath, we can repair cracks at a much lower cost! When you notice a crack in your bath, it’s a big inconvenience, as it may leak or get worse over time. The cost of ripping out and replacing your bath, along with the repairs to surrounding tiles and walls, is usually a significant, unplanned expense. At Surface Doctor Penicuik, we specialize in fast, affordable bath crack repairs without replacing the entire bath. Get in touch with us now for a free quote, with no obligation!
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. 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 adept at identifying the type of crack and deciding the best course of action for your bath. 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. Achieving such a perfect repair requires precision and years of practice, something our technicians have mastered.
1. The technician will evaluate the crack to determine whether it can be easily repaired or if it’s 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. Next, the technician will clean the area and reinforce the crack from underneath the bath to ensure 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. To prepare for the next step, the technician will apply our specially formulated bonder to the repair. 5. The technician will colour match a new enamel paint to your bath’s exact shade of white, ensuring it blends perfectly. It will then be sprayed onto 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. 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!
We strive for the best quality repairs and exceptional customer service, making sure you are fully satisfied. Most repairs will blend seamlessly with regular use 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. 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 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 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 DIY kits worked properly, we wouldn’t have a business.What’s the expected duration of a bath crack repair?
