Repairing cracks in your bath is much more affordable than replacing the whole bath! Cracks in your bath can cause leaks and worsen, leaving your bath unusable until it is fixed. Replacing the entire bath, including repairing surrounding tiles and walls, can be a costly and unexpected expense. At Surface Doctor Shiremoor, we specialize in fast, affordable bath crack repairs without replacing the entire bath. Call now for your free, no-obligation quote!

Our technicians have years of expertise in cracked bath repairs, knowing when damage can be repaired or when replacement is the better option. In most cases, the crack is superficial and can be repaired to a high standard. If the crack is structural, meaning it affects the bath's framework or is due to installation issues, we don't recommend repairs since the crack could come back. Our experts are trained to evaluate the type of crack and determine whether it can be effectively 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. To ensure the repair looks flawless, our technicians will match the enamel paint to your bath’s exact colour on-site. Our technicians have perfected this precise skill after years of experience and practice.

Expert Colour Matching for Bath Crack Repairs

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 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. The technician uses specialized tinters to create the exact shade of white needed for your bath.

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, 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 ensure the repair blends seamlessly, our technician will create a custom enamel colour on the day of the repair. Achieving the perfect colour match is a precise skill that takes years of practice. We create the enamel colour on the day to guarantee it matches the exact shade of white of your bath or shower tray. Our technicians have many years of experience colour matching in this way so your bath will be in capable hands with us.

We always use the highest quality professional grade materials available - such as our special adhesive bonder which makes your repair stick to the surface of your bath. The crack will most likely need to be supported from underneath and filled in and sealed to make sure the bath is watertight before the new enamel is sprayed on top. 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.

Our Full Step-by-Step Procedure:

1. The crack will be inspected by our technician to assess whether it is easily repairable or structural. If the damage is structural, we do not recommend proceeding with repairs, and in such cases, no warranty will be offered.

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. To prepare for the next step, the technician will apply our specially formulated bonder to the repair.

5. A new enamel paint will be colour matched to the exact shade of white of your bath to make sure that it blends in seamlessly. This will be sprayed on to the repair using a fine spray gun.

6. Leave your bath for 24 hours before using it so the repair can fully cure and set.

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?

Cracked bathtub restoration in Shiremoor

Your bath crack repair will take between 1-2 hours and half a day, depending on the crack's extent and whether it’s structural. It's much faster 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.

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 repair kits use subpar materials compared to the professional-grade materials we use, and their results 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. Simply put, if DIY kits worked properly, we wouldn’t have a business.

How durable is a bath crack repair?

Most of our repairs are long-lasting, but with significant cracks or structural damage, we cannot provide a guarantee since it’s difficult to assess the bath’s durability.

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!”
BN - Shiremoor,Tyne-and-Wear
“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.”
