We can fix cracks in your bath without the high cost of a full replacement! 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 Shettleston, we specialize in fast, affordable bath crack repairs without replacing the entire bath. Contact us now for a 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 most cases, the crack is 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 technicians are adept at identifying the type of crack and deciding the best course of action for your bath. 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. This precise repair method takes years of practice to perfect, and our technicians are highly skilled in it.
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. 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 crack will be filled in and smoothed out so that it’s no longer noticeable. 4. Our technician will apply a specialised bonder to the repair in preparation for the following 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. 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!
Depending on the size and type of crack, the repair will take 1-2 hours to half a day. This is far quicker than the hassle of 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.
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. Some of our customers have asked why should they choose us over using a cheap DIY repair kit themselves, and we always say they're welcome to give it a go, but give us a call when it doesn't work out. The issue with DIY repair kits is that the materials are of much lower quality than the professional-grade materials we use, and they 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 were as effective as advertised, we wouldn’t be here offering professional repairs!What is the lifespan 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.
