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. Removing and replacing your entire bath, including fixing the damage to tiles and walls, can quickly turn into a costly, unexpected bill. Instead of replacing your whole bath, Surface Doctor Rochford can repair the crack quickly and efficiently. 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. We specialize in assessing bath damage to determine whether the crack is repairable or structural. 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. To ensure the repair looks flawless, our technicians will match the enamel paint to your bath’s exact colour on-site. This precise repair method takes years of practice to perfect, and our technicians are highly skilled in it.

Bath Crack Repair with Perfect Colour Matching

One of the most important steps in repairing a bath is colour matching a new enamel paint for the repair. Believe it or not, all baths are varying shades of white, so a pre-made paint simply won't match the colour of your bath precisely. We use specialized tinters to create a custom enamel paint that matches your bath’s exact shade of white for a flawless repair. The technician uses specialized tinters to create the exact shade of white needed for your bath.

DIY repair kits often provide limited white shades, but these won’t match the exact white of your bath. There are many different shades of white for baths, sinks, shower trays, and tiles, and the original white may change with age and use.

To achieve a seamless repair, our technician will mix a new enamel colour on the day of the repair. This precise colour matching process takes years of practice to perfect. This is why we create the enamel colour on the day, to ensure it perfectly matches the exact white shade of your bath or shower tray. Our technicians have many years of experience colour matching in this way so your bath will be in capable hands with us.

Our materials are of the highest professional grade, including an exclusive adhesive bonder that guarantees the repair stays firmly in place. 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. The technician will handle all these steps before applying the colour-matched new enamel to ensure a perfect result. No steps will be skipped, ensuring a long-lasting repair that’s as durable as the rest of your bath.

Complete Procedure, Step by Step:

1. Our technician will examine the crack to identify whether it's repairable or if it’s a structural issue. In cases of structural damage, we’ll advise not repairing it, and a warranty won’t be offered if you choose to proceed.

2. Next, the technician will clean the area and reinforce the crack from underneath the bath to ensure it's watertight.

3. Next, we’ll fill the crack and smooth it over to ensure it’s completely seamless.

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

5. We’ll match the new enamel paint to the exact white of your bath to ensure a flawless finish, applying it with a fine spray gun.

6. It’s important to leave your bath for 24 hours to allow the repair to fully cure and set.

7. Use your bath like normal and relax knowing you don't have to rip it out and replace it!

How long does a bath crack repair take?

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!

We strive for the best quality repairs and exceptional customer service, making sure you are fully satisfied. Most repairs will blend seamlessly with regular use of your bath.

At Surface Doctor, we use only the highest quality materials, available exclusively on a commercial level, ensuring no corners are cut during your repair. Our technicians will perform a bath crack repair, colour matched to your bath by eye, guaranteeing the best possible result. Once the repair is complete, you’ll be amazed at the flawless finish.

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 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 difficult to achieve with DIY kits, as they only provide one or two shades of white for your repair. If DIY repair kits worked as well as claimed, we wouldn’t still be in business!

What’s the expected duration of a bath crack repair?

While most repairs last for the duration of your bath, we cannot guarantee repairs with extensive cracks or structural damage, as the bath’s lifespan may be unpredictable.

“I had a major crack in my bath and didn’t want to deal with replacing it. A friend recommended Surface Doctor London, and I’m so happy they did! The technician did a great job repairing it, and we were able to use the bath again the very next day. I’m so relieved we didn’t have to replace the entire bath. Very grateful for the speedy repair!”
