Royston’s Expert Bath Crack Repair Specialists

Professional bath crack repair in XX Reliable bath crack repair specialists in Royston

We can fix cracks in your bath without the high cost of a full replacement! When you find a crack in your bath, it is such a hassle as you now can't use your bath due to it leaking or the crack potentially getting worse. The cost of ripping out and replacing your bath, along with the repairs to surrounding tiles and walls, is usually a significant, unplanned expense. At Surface Doctor Royston, 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. Most cracks are merely superficial and can be repaired to look like new. Sometimes the crack will be structural - meaning it is actually affecting the structure of the bath or it was improperly installed in the first place which will have caused it to crack - in these cases we don't recommend having it repaired as the crack may come back. Our experienced technicians are skilled at determining the type of crack in your bath and whether it can be repaired. 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. 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!

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. To guarantee a true colour match, our technician will prepare a custom enamel paint specifically for your bath's unique white tone. This is achieved using specialised tinters for the perfect match.

Some DIY repair kits come with just one or two white shades, which won’t match the unique 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.

Our technician will create your own new enamel colour on the day, to ensure that the repair blends in as seamlessly as possible. Matching the enamel colour perfectly requires a high level of skill and years of experience. Creating the enamel colour on-site ensures a perfect match to the exact shade of white of your bath or shower tray. With many years of experience in colour matching, our technicians ensure your bath is in expert hands.

Our materials are of the highest professional grade, including an exclusive adhesive bonder that guarantees the repair stays firmly in place. The crack will require support from underneath, filling, and sealing to ensure the bath remains watertight before we apply the new enamel. Our technician will follow these essential steps before applying the colour-matched enamel to your bath. No steps will be skipped, ensuring a long-lasting repair that’s as durable as the rest of your bath.

Complete Step-by-Step Guide:

1. Our technician will assess the crack to determine if it’s easily 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 surface and then strengthen the crack from the underside to ensure the bath remains watertight.

3. The crack will be filled in and smoothed out so that it’s no longer noticeable.

4. The technician will then apply our custom bonder to the repair to get it ready for the next step.

5. A custom enamel paint will be colour matched to your bath’s exact white shade, ensuring the repair blends seamlessly. This will be applied using a fine spray gun.

6. For the repair to fully cure and set, leave your bath unused for 24 hours.

7. Enjoy your bath as usual, knowing you won’t have to replace it!

How long does a bath crack repair take?

Affordable bath crack repair services in Royston

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.

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 materials in DIY repair kits are of lower quality than the professional materials we use, meaning the repairs 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 durable is a bath crack repair?

Typically, our repairs last for the entire lifespan of your bath. However, with severe cracks or structural damage, we can’t guarantee the repair as it’s hard to predict the bath’s longevity.

“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!”
AH - Royston,Hertfordshire
“After my tenants moved out, I discovered a crack in the bath at one of my BTL properties that had caused leaking and water damage to the floor. Surface Doctor quickly repaired the crack, sealed it, and now the bath is watertight with no more leaks! It saved me from having to completely redo the bathroom. I’ll definitely use Surface Doctor for repairs from now on.”
CK - Royston, Hertfordshire
"I wasn't sure if my bath was repairable as the crack looked really bad, but when I sent in pictures I was sent a quote that was really reasonable so I went ahead with the repair. The technician was friendly and knowledgable and explained the process to me. The bath is still going strong now! So glad we used you to repair our bath."
