We can fix cracks in your bath without the high cost of a full replacement! Cracks in your bath can cause leaks and worsen, leaving your bath unusable until it is fixed. 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 Portobello, we specialize in fast, affordable bath crack repairs without replacing the entire bath. Contact us now 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. 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 technicians are experts at assessing the damage to determine what type of crack your bath has. When repair is an option, our technicians use an expert procedure to achieve a smooth, high-quality repair that you won’t notice. The repair process involves colour-matching the enamel paint to your bath’s exact shade, ensuring the repair is virtually undetectable. This is a very precise skill and takes many years of practice and experience to perfect - which luckily all our technicians have!
1. The technician will evaluate the crack to determine whether it can be easily repaired or if it’s structural. In cases of structural damage, we’ll advise not repairing it, and a warranty won’t be offered if you choose to proceed.
2. After cleaning the area, the technician will reinforce the crack from underneath the bath to guarantee 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. Next, the technician will apply a specialised bonder to the repair, preparing it for the next stage. 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. For the repair to fully cure and set, leave your bath unused for 24 hours. 7. Use your bath like normal and relax knowing you don't have to rip it out and replace it!
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!
Our goal is to provide the highest quality repair and outstanding customer service, ensuring you're completely satisfied with the result. Most of our repairs won’t be noticeable with everyday use of your bath.
Using only the best commercial-grade materials, we ensure your repair is of the highest quality. Our technicians colour match your bath crack repair by eye, guaranteeing a perfect result. When you see your finished repair, you'll be impressed by how well it blends in. We’re often asked why to choose us over a DIY repair kit, and we always say try it, but reach out to us when it doesn’t work out. 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. If DIY repair kits worked as well as claimed, we wouldn’t still be in business!How long does a bath crack repair last?
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.
