Repairing cracks in your bath is much more affordable than replacing the whole bath! A crack in your bath can prevent you from using it due to leaks or the risk of the crack spreading. Quotes for ripping out and replacing the bath, plus fixing the surrounding tiles and walls, are typically a high, unplanned expense. Surface Doctor Pilton 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!

All of our technicians have many years of experience repairing cracked baths and they know how to spot when the damage is easily repairable, or if it does unfortunately need to be replaced. In most cases, the crack is superficial and can be repaired to a high standard. 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. 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. 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 skill requires years of practice and experience, which our technicians have mastered.

This repair option is not only economical but also environmentally friendly, reducing unnecessary waste.

Bath Crack Repair Colour Matching

Colour matching is critical in bath repairs, as no two baths are the same shade of white, and pre-made paints won’t provide the precise match needed. 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.

DIY repair kits often provide limited white shades, but these won’t match the exact white of your bath. 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. Matching the enamel colour perfectly requires a high level of skill and years of experience. Creating the enamel colour on-site ensures a perfect match to the exact shade of white of your bath or shower tray. Our technicians have extensive experience in colour matching, so your bath is in skilled hands.

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. 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. Our technician will follow these essential steps before applying the colour-matched enamel to your bath. No steps will be skipped, ensuring a long-lasting repair that’s as durable as the rest of your bath.

Detailed Step-by-Step Process:

1. Our technician will inspect the crack to see if it is easily repairable, or if it is structural. If it's structural damage, we wouldn't recommend repairing it, so if you choose to go ahead with a repair we won't offer a warranty for this.

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. The next step is to fill in the crack and smooth it out so you can't feel it anymore.

4. Next, the technician will apply a specialised bonder to the repair, preparing it for the next stage.

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. Allow your bath to set for 24 hours before using it to ensure the repair fully cures.

7. Use your bath as you normally would and relax, without the hassle of replacement!

How much time does a bath crack repair take?

Fast and efficient bath crack repair in Pilton

Depending on the extent of the crack and if it is structural - your repair will take anywhere from 1-2 hours to half a day. 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 use the best quality materials that are only available on a commercial basis and will never ever cut corners by using cheaper materials whilst carrying out your repair. Our technicians will carry out a bath crack repair that is colour matched to your bath by eye ensuring you get the best repair possible. When you see your completed repair, you'll be amazed by how good it is.

When customers ask why they should choose our services over a DIY repair kit, we suggest they try it out but contact us when it fails to deliver. The issue with DIY repair kits is that the materials are of much lower quality than the professional-grade materials we use, and they 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. If DIY repair kits worked as well as claimed, we wouldn’t still be in business!

How long does a bath crack repair last?

For most repairs, the results will last as long as your bath, but in cases of extensive cracks or structural damage, we cannot offer a guarantee due to the uncertainty of how long the bath will remain intact.

“When I found a big crack in my bath, I was worried about having to replace it. A friend suggested Surface Doctor London, and I’m so glad they did! The technician did an amazing repair, and we were able to use the bath again the next day. It was such a relief to avoid replacing the whole bath. Thanks for the fast and excellent service!”

“After finding a crack in the bath at one of my BTL properties, I noticed it had led to leaks and water damage underneath. Surface Doctor was able to repair the crack and seal it, making it watertight and stopping the leaks! It saved me the headache of redoing the whole bathroom. I’ll always call Surface Doctor for any future repairs.”
