Instead of replacing your bath, we can repair cracks at a much lower cost! 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 Rochford, we offer quick repairs for cracks in your bath, no replacement necessary. Call now for your free, no-obligation quote!
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. In some cases, the crack is structural, meaning it impacts the bath’s strength or was caused by improper installation; in these cases, we advise against repairs as the crack may return. Our experts are trained to evaluate the type of crack and determine whether it can be effectively repaired. When repairs are possible, our technicians follow a specialized process to ensure a flawless repair that blends seamlessly into the bath. 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. Our technician will assess the crack to determine if it’s easily repairable or if it’s a structural issue. 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 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. Use your bath as you normally would and relax, without the hassle of replacement!
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!
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 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. 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 materials in DIY repair kits are of lower quality than the professional materials we use, meaning the repairs 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. Simply put - if the DIY repair kits worked so well, we would no longer 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.
