Instead of replacing your bath, we can repair cracks at a much lower cost! Finding a crack in your bath is a hassle, as it can lead to leaks and worsen over time, making your bath unusable. Quotes for ripping out and replacing the bath, plus fixing the surrounding tiles and walls, are typically a high, unplanned expense. At Surface Doctor Shipley, we can repair the crack in your bath quickly without needing to replace the whole bath. Call today for a free, no-obligation quote!

With years of experience, our technicians are skilled in determining whether a cracked bath can be repaired or needs to be replaced. In most cases, the crack is superficial and can be repaired to a high standard. In some cases, the crack is structural, meaning it impacts the bath’s strength or was caused by improper installation; in these cases, we advise against repairs as the crack may return. Our technicians are experts at assessing the damage to determine what type of crack your bath has. When repairs are possible, our technicians follow a specialized process to ensure a flawless repair that blends seamlessly into 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

Colour matching is critical in bath repairs, as no two baths are the same shade of white, and pre-made paints won’t provide the precise match needed. Our technician custom creates the enamel paint on-site to match your bath’s exact shade of white, ensuring a perfect colour match. Using specialised tinters, we ensure the enamel paint perfectly matches your bath's original colour.

Some DIY repair kits will only provide one or two shades of white paint to use on your bath, but it simply won't match the white of your bath. Baths, shower trays, sinks, and white tiles come in so many different shades of white, and the original shade of white could be affected by the age of your bath, and the usage it has had.

Our technician customizes the enamel colour on-site to ensure the repair matches your bath 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. Our technicians have extensive experience in colour matching, so your bath is in skilled hands.

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. 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. 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.

Our Full Step-by-Step Procedure:

1. Our technician will assess the crack to determine if it’s easily repairable or if it’s a structural issue. If it's structural damage, we wouldn't recommend repairing it, so if you choose to go ahead with a repair we won't offer a warranty for this.

2. After cleaning the area, the technician will reinforce the crack from underneath the bath to guarantee it's watertight.

3. We’ll fill the crack and smooth the surface so that it feels as if the crack never existed.

4. Then the technician will apply our specialised bonder to the repair in preparation for the next step.

5. The technician will colour match a new enamel paint to your bath’s exact shade of white, ensuring it blends perfectly. It will then be sprayed onto the repair using a fine spray gun.

6. Allow your bath to set for 24 hours before using it to ensure the repair fully cures.

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?

Before and after bath crack repair in Shipley

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.

We only use the best materials, which are only available commercially, ensuring no compromises are made on your repair. Our technicians will colour match your bath crack repair by eye for a flawless finish. You’ll be amazed by how great the repair looks once it's done.

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 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. The problem with DIY repair kits is that they only give one or two shades of white, making it nearly impossible to achieve a true colour match. Simply put - if the DIY repair kits worked so well, we would no longer be in business!

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 a huge crack in my bath and was stressing about finding someone to replace it. A friend recommended Surface Doctor London for repairs instead, and I’m so glad they did. The technician did an incredible job and we were able to use the bath again the very next day. I’m so relieved we didn’t have to replace the whole bath. Thanks for the fast service and amazing repair!”
AH - Shipley,West-Yorkshire
“I found a crack in the bath at one of my BTL properties after the tenants left, and it caused leaking and water damage. Surface Doctor was able to repair the crack and seal it, making it watertight and eliminating the leaks! This saved me a lot of hassle compared to redoing the whole bathroom. I’ll always turn to Surface Doctor for repairs now.”
SK - Shipley, West-Yorkshire
“I wasn’t sure if my bath could be repaired because the crack looked really bad, but after sending in pictures, I received a very reasonable quote and decided to go ahead with the repair. The technician was friendly, knowledgeable, and took the time to explain everything. My bath is still holding up perfectly! So glad we chose you for the repair.”

"Thank you for repairing the crack in our bath - it was such an eyesore and would always annoy me when I walked into the bathroom. After your repair I can't tell there was ever any damage on the bath in the first place and it looks like new again."
