We offer bath crack repairs at a fraction of the cost of replacing your entire 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 Sheffield, we offer quick repairs for cracks in your bath, no replacement necessary. Call us now for a no-obligation free quote!

With years of experience, our technicians are skilled in determining whether a cracked bath can be repaired or needs to be replaced. Most times the crack is just superficial and can be repaired to a high standard. 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. 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. 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 essential steps in bath repairs is achieving a perfect colour match for the enamel paint. All baths vary in their shade of white, so pre-made paint won’t work. Our technician will create your very own enamel paint that matches the shade of white of your bath on the day to get a true colour match. Using specialised tinters, we ensure the enamel paint perfectly matches your bath's original colour.

Many DIY repair kits offer only one or two shades of white paint, but they won't match your bath’s exact white shade. Baths, sinks, shower trays, and white tiles all come in various shades of white, with the original shade being affected by the age and wear of the bath.

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. We create the enamel colour on the day to guarantee it matches the exact shade of white of your bath or shower tray. Thanks to years of expertise in colour matching, our technicians will make sure your bath is well taken care of.

Our materials are of the highest professional grade, including an exclusive adhesive bonder that guarantees the repair stays firmly in place. Before spraying on the new enamel, the crack will need to be supported from underneath, filled in, and sealed to ensure the bath is watertight. Before spraying the colour-matched enamel, our technician will complete all the necessary steps for a flawless repair. He won't skimp on any of these steps, so you can rest assured the repair will last as long as the rest of your bath.

Complete Procedure, Step by Step:

1. Our technician will inspect the crack to see if it is easily repairable, or if it is structural. For structural damage, we advise against repairing it, and if you proceed with a repair, we cannot provide a warranty.

2. Next, the technician will clean the area and reinforce the crack from underneath the bath to ensure it's 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. Feel at ease using your bath again, with no need to rip it out and replace it!

How much time does a bath crack repair take?

DIY vs. professional bath crack repair in Sheffield

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!

Our focus is on delivering the highest standard of repairs and providing excellent customer service, so you’re fully satisfied. Most of our repairs will be unnoticeable during 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.

We’ve been asked why customers should choose us over using a DIY repair kit, and we always say try it yourself, but call us when it doesn't work. DIY kits use inferior materials compared to the professional-grade materials we provide, and they simply don’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 were as effective as advertised, we wouldn’t be here offering professional repairs!

What’s the expected duration 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.

Here are a few examples of what our customers say about us

"I had an awful crack on my bath and was so worried trying to find a tradesman to replace it for me. My friend suggested Surface Doctor London to repair it instead and I'm so relieved your technician was able to do such a fantastic repair on my bath. We could use the bath again the next day and it has been such a relief to not have to get the whole bath replaced. Really grateful for your fast service and repairing my bath!"
YT - Sheffield,South-Yorkshire
“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.”
SG - Sheffield, South-Yorkshire
