All of our technicians have many years of experience repairing cracked baths and they know how to spot when the damage is easily repairable, or if it does unfortunately need 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 experienced technicians are skilled at determining the type of crack in your bath and whether it can be 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. The repair process involves colour-matching the enamel paint to your bath’s exact shade, ensuring the repair is virtually undetectable. Our technicians have perfected this precise skill after years of experience and practice.
1. The technician will evaluate the crack to determine whether it can be easily repaired or if it’s structural. In cases of structural damage, we’ll advise not repairing it, and a warranty won’t be offered if you choose to proceed.
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. Our technician will apply a specialised bonder to the repair in preparation for the following 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. It’s important to leave your bath for 24 hours to allow the repair to fully cure and set. 7. Enjoy your bath as usual, knowing you won’t have to replace it!The repair process usually takes between 1-2 hours to half a day, depending on whether the crack is structural. It’s a much quicker option 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.
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 problem with the DIY repair kits is the quality of the materials they provide are totally substandard to the professional grade materials we use, and they won'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.What is the lifespan of a bath crack repair?
Most repairs will last for the duration of your bath. But sometimes with an extensive crack or structural damage we won't be able to put a guarantee on your repair as it will be hard to judge how long the bath will last.
