Professional Bath Crack Repair Services in Sighthill

Instead of replacing your bath, we can repair cracks at a much lower cost! When you notice a crack in your bath, it’s a big inconvenience, as it may leak or get worse over time. 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 Sighthill, we offer quick repairs for cracks in your bath, no replacement necessary. Contact us now for a 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. 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. 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. Our technicians will match the enamel paint to your bath’s exact colour to make sure the repair is seamless. This skill requires years of practice and experience, which our technicians have mastered.

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. To guarantee a true colour match, our technician will prepare a custom enamel paint specifically for your bath's unique white tone. They do this using specialised tinters.

Most DIY repair kits only offer a couple of white shades, which won’t perfectly match your bath’s original colour. Your bath’s white shade may vary due to age and usage, and there are many shades of white for baths, sinks, and tiles.

On the day of the repair, our technician will match a new enamel colour to your bath to ensure the repair blends perfectly. Achieving the perfect colour match is a precise skill that takes years of practice. Creating the enamel colour on-site ensures a perfect match to 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. Most cracks will need to be supported from beneath, filled, and sealed to make the bath watertight before the new enamel is applied. So our technician will do all of these steps before spraying on the colour-matched new enamel to your bath. Our technician ensures every step is done thoroughly, so you can trust the repair will last just as long as your bath.

Full Step By Step Procedure:

1. The technician will evaluate the crack to determine whether it can be easily repaired or if it’s 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. The technician will clean the damaged area and reinforce the crack from below the bath to make it watertight.

3. The next step involves filling in the crack and smoothing it out so it’s perfectly smooth to the touch.

4. The technician will then apply our custom bonder to the repair to get it ready for the next step.

5. The technician will match a new enamel paint to your bath’s exact white shade for a seamless blend, and it will be sprayed onto the repair 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. Feel at ease using your bath again, with no need to rip it out and replace it!

What’s the time frame for completing a bath crack repair?

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!

We strive for the best quality repairs and exceptional customer service, making sure you are fully satisfied. Most repairs will blend seamlessly with regular use of your bath.

We use the best quality materials that are only available on a commercial basis and will never ever cut corners by using cheaper materials whilst carrying out your repair. Our technicians will carry out a bath crack repair that is colour matched to your bath by eye ensuring you get the best repair possible. When you see your completed repair, you'll be amazed by how good it is.

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 materials in DIY repair kits are of lower quality than the professional materials we use, meaning the repairs won’t last as long. A true colour match is difficult to achieve with DIY kits, as they only provide one or two shades of white for your repair. If DIY repair kits were as effective as advertised, we wouldn’t be here offering professional repairs!

How long does a bath crack repair last?

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.

“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!”
