We can repair cracks in your bath at a fraction of the price of replacing your bath! A crack in your bath can prevent you from using it due to leaks or the risk of the crack spreading. Replacing the entire bath, including repairing surrounding tiles and walls, can be a costly and unexpected expense. Instead of replacing your whole bath, Surface Doctor Ratho can repair the crack quickly and efficiently. Get in touch with us now for a free quote, with no obligation!
With years of experience, our technicians are skilled in determining whether a cracked bath can be repaired or needs to be replaced. Most cracks are merely superficial and can be repaired to look like new. 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. When repairs are possible, our technicians follow a specialized process to ensure a flawless repair that blends seamlessly into the bath. Our technicians will match the enamel paint to your bath’s exact colour to make sure the repair is seamless. Achieving such a perfect repair requires precision and years of practice, something our technicians have mastered.
1. Our technician will examine the crack to identify whether it's repairable or if it’s a structural issue. For structural damage, we advise against repairing it, and if you proceed with a repair, we cannot provide a warranty.
2. The technician will clean the damaged area and reinforce the crack from below the bath to make it watertight. 3. We’ll fill the crack and smooth the surface so that it feels as if the crack never existed. 4. Our technician will apply a specialised bonder to the repair in preparation for the following step. 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. 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!
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. 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. It's also very hard to achieve a true colour match to the surface of your bath as the repair kit will only provide you with one or two shades of white to use on your repair. If DIY repair kits were as effective as advertised, we wouldn’t be here offering professional repairs!What is the lifespan of a bath crack repair?
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.
