Repairing cracks in your bath is much more affordable than replacing the whole bath! Cracks in your bath can cause leaks and worsen, leaving your bath unusable until it is fixed. Quotes for ripping out and replacing the bath, plus fixing the surrounding tiles and walls, are typically a high, unplanned expense. At Surface Doctor Portsmouth, we can repair the crack in your bath quickly without needing to replace the whole bath. Get in touch with us now for a free quote, with no obligation!
Our technicians have extensive experience repairing cracked baths, and they can quickly assess whether the damage can be repaired or if the bath needs to be replaced. 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 experts are trained to evaluate the type of crack and determine whether it can be effectively repaired. When repair is an option, our technicians use an expert procedure to achieve a smooth, high-quality repair that you won’t notice. To ensure the repair looks flawless, our technicians will match the enamel paint to your bath’s exact colour on-site. 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. The technician will clean the damaged area and reinforce the crack from below the bath to make it watertight. 3. The crack will be filled in and smoothed out so that it’s no longer noticeable. 4. Then the technician will apply our specialised bonder to the repair in preparation for the next step. 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. Feel at ease using your bath again, with no need to rip it out and replace it!
The time it takes to repair a crack depends on the severity and whether it's structural, but typically takes between 1-2 hours to half a day. This is much quicker than replacing your entire bath!
At Surface Doctor, we aim for top-quality repairs and excellent service, ensuring you're happy with your repair. The majority of our repairs won’t be visible during normal use of your bath.
We never cut corners when carrying out repairs, using only top-quality, commercial-grade materials. Our technicians will colour match your bath crack repair by eye, ensuring a seamless result. When you see the finished repair, you'll be blown away by the quality. 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 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. 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’s the expected duration of 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.
