Cracked bathtub restoration in Skelmersdale DIY vs. professional bath crack repair in Skelmersdale

We can fix cracks in your bath without the high cost of a full replacement! When you find a crack in your bath, it is such a hassle as you now can't use your bath due to it leaking or the crack potentially getting worse. The cost of ripping out and replacing your bath, along with the repairs to surrounding tiles and walls, is usually a significant, unplanned expense. At Surface Doctor Skelmersdale, we can repair the crack in your bath quickly without needing to replace the whole bath. Call now for your 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. 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. Our technicians use a specialized procedure to achieve a repair of the highest quality, making it undetectable. They will colour match a new enamel paint to your exact bath on the day to make sure the new repair blends into your bath seamlessly. This skill requires years of practice and experience, which our technicians have mastered.

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. We use specialized tinters to create a custom enamel paint that matches your bath’s exact shade of white for a flawless repair. Specialised tinters are used to create a custom colour match for your bath’s enamel paint.

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.

To ensure the repair blends seamlessly, our technician will create a custom enamel colour on the day of the repair. This precise colour matching process takes years of practice to perfect. We mix your new enamel colour on the day to ensure the colour matches your bath or shower tray’s exact white shade. With many years of experience in colour matching, our technicians ensure your bath is in expert hands.

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. Most cracks will need to be supported from beneath, filled, and sealed to make the bath watertight before the new enamel is applied. All these steps will be completed by our technician before the final layer of colour-matched enamel is sprayed onto your bath. Our technician follows every necessary step, ensuring the repair lasts for years, just like the rest of your bath.

Detailed Step-by-Step Process:

1. Our technician will inspect the crack to see if it is easily repairable, or if it is structural. 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. The technician will clean the damaged area and reinforce the crack from below the bath to make it 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 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. For the repair to fully cure and set, leave your bath unused for 24 hours.

7. Enjoy your bath as usual, knowing you won’t have to replace it!

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

On-site bathtub crack repair in Skelmersdale

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!

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 never cut corners when carrying out repairs, using only top-quality, commercial-grade materials. Our technicians will colour match your bath crack repair by eye, ensuring a seamless result. When you see the finished repair, you'll be blown away by the quality.

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

How durable is a bath crack repair?

While most repairs last for the duration of your bath, we cannot guarantee repairs with extensive cracks or structural damage, as the bath’s lifespan may be unpredictable.

"I had an awful crack on my bath and was so worried trying to find a tradesman to replace it for me. My friend suggested Surface Doctor London to repair it instead and I'm so relieved your technician was able to do such a fantastic repair on my bath. We could use the bath again the next day and it has been such a relief to not have to get the whole bath replaced. Really grateful for your fast service and repairing my bath!"

“When I discovered a crack in the bath at one of my BTL properties, it had already caused leaking and water damage. Surface Doctor repaired the crack, sealed it to make it watertight, and stopped the leaks! It was such a relief to avoid having to redo the entire bathroom. From now on, Surface Doctor is my go-to for repairs.”
