Bathroom renovation with crack repair in Shepton-Mallet Cracked bathtub restoration in Shepton-Mallet

Repairing cracks in your bath is much more affordable than replacing the whole bath! When you notice a crack in your bath, it’s a big inconvenience, as it may leak or get worse over time. Removing and replacing your entire bath, including fixing the damage to tiles and walls, can quickly turn into a costly, unexpected bill. At Surface Doctor Shepton-Mallet, we offer quick repairs for cracks in your bath, no replacement necessary. 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. Often, the crack is cosmetic and can be fixed to an excellent standard. When the crack is structural, affecting the bath's integrity or caused by poor installation, it’s best not to repair it as the crack may reoccur. We specialize in assessing bath damage to determine whether the crack is repairable or structural. 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!

Precise Colour Matching for Bath Crack Repairs

For the best repair, we ensure the enamel paint is colour-matched precisely to your bath. Since all baths are different shades of white, pre-made paint won’t suffice. We use specialized tinters to create a custom enamel paint that matches your bath’s exact shade of white for a flawless repair. They do this using specialised tinters.

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.

On the day of the repair, our technician will match a new enamel colour to your bath to ensure the repair blends perfectly. Matching the enamel colour perfectly requires a high level of skill and years of experience. 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. With years of experience in colour matching, our technicians will ensure a perfect result.

At Surface Doctor, we only use the highest quality, professional-grade materials, including our special adhesive bonder that ensures the repair adheres perfectly to your bath's surface. To guarantee a watertight repair, the crack will be supported from below, filled, and sealed before we apply the new enamel. All these steps will be completed by our technician before the final layer of colour-matched enamel is sprayed onto your bath. 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 inspect the crack to see if it is easily repairable, or if it is structural. If it’s found to be structural damage, we won’t recommend repairing it and will not offer a warranty on any repair.

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. Our technician will apply a specialised bonder to the repair in preparation for the following step.

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. 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!

How much time does a bath crack repair take?

Cracked bathtub restoration in Shepton-Mallet

Depending on the extent of the crack and if it is structural - your repair will take anywhere from 1-2 hours to half a day. Much faster than removing and replacing your bath!

Our goal is to provide the highest quality repair and outstanding customer service, ensuring you're completely satisfied with the result. Most of our repairs won’t be noticeable with everyday use of your bath.

Using only the best commercial-grade materials, we ensure your repair is of the highest quality. Our technicians colour match your bath crack repair by eye, guaranteeing a perfect result. When you see your finished repair, you'll be impressed by how well it blends in.

When customers ask why they should choose our services over a DIY repair kit, we suggest they try it out but contact us when it fails to deliver. DIY kits use inferior materials compared to the professional-grade materials we provide, and they simply don’t last as long. Achieving a true colour match with a DIY repair kit is nearly impossible, as they only offer one or two shades of white for repairs. If DIY repair kits were as effective as advertised, we wouldn’t be here offering professional repairs!

How long will a bath crack repair last?

Most repairs will last for the duration of your bath. But sometimes with an extensive crack or structural damage we won't be able to put a guarantee on your repair as it will be hard to judge how long the bath will last.

“When I found a big crack in my bath, I was worried about having to replace it. A friend suggested Surface Doctor London, and I’m so glad they did! The technician did an amazing repair, and we were able to use the bath again the next day. It was such a relief to avoid replacing the whole bath. Thanks for the fast and excellent service!”

"I found a crack in the bath at one of my BTL properties after the tenants moved out, and it had caused some leaking and water damage to the floor underneath the bathroom. Surface Doctor were able to repair the crack and seal it so it’s now watertight and there are no more leaks! It saved a lot of agro over having to re-do the whole bathroom. I’ll always use Surface Doctor when I need to get a repair done now."
BH - Shepton-Mallet, Somerset
"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."
