Fast and efficient bath crack repair in Thorne Hairline crack in bathtub repaired in Thorne

Instead of replacing your bath, we can repair cracks at a much lower cost! 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 Thorne, we can repair the crack in your bath quickly without needing to replace the whole bath. Call now for your free, no-obligation quote!

All of our expert technicians are highly experienced in bath crack repairs and can assess whether the crack is repairable or if replacement is necessary. Most times the crack is just superficial and can be repaired to a high standard. Occasionally, the crack will be structural, affecting the bath’s integrity or due to poor installation, in which case we don’t recommend repairing it, as the crack may reappear. 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. On the day of the repair, they will colour match new enamel paint to your bath to ensure the repair blends perfectly with the original surface. This is a very precise skill and takes many years of practice and experience to perfect - which luckily all our technicians have!

Bath replacement is not only costly and time-consuming, but it also adds unnecessary waste to your local landfill. Repairing your bath with us means it will be ready to use again within 24 hours! It's also environmentally friendly and economical as it means less wastage.

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 mix a custom enamel paint to match your bath's exact shade of white, ensuring a seamless repair. They do this using specialised tinters.

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. 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 is a precise skill which takes years of practice to get right. This is why we have to create your new enamel colour on the day - to make sure the colour matches the shade of white of your bath or shower tray exactly. With years of experience in colour matching, our technicians will ensure a perfect result.

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 require support from underneath, filling, and sealing to ensure the bath remains watertight before we apply the new enamel. Our technician will follow these essential steps before applying the colour-matched enamel to your bath. 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.

Complete Step-by-Step Guide:

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

3. The next step is to fill in the crack and smooth it out so you can't feel it anymore.

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

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. 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!

How much time does a bath crack repair take?

On-site bathtub crack repair in Thorne

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 focus is on delivering the highest standard of repairs and providing excellent customer service, so you’re fully satisfied. Most of our repairs will be unnoticeable during regular 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.

We’ve been asked why customers should choose us over using a DIY repair kit, and we always say try it yourself, 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. 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.

"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!"
YT - Thorne,South-Yorkshire
"I found a crack in the bath at one of my BTL properties after the tenants moved out, and it had caused some leaking and water damage to the floor underneath the bathroom. Surface Doctor were able to repair the crack and seal it so it’s now watertight and there are no more leaks! It saved a lot of agro over having to re-do the whole bathroom. I’ll always use Surface Doctor when I need to get a repair done now."
SK - Thorne, South-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.”
RW - Thorne,South-Yorkshire
“We’re so thankful for the crack repair in our bath! It used to be an eyesore and would always annoy me when I walked into the bathroom. After your repair, it looks like there was never any damage, and it’s as good as new!”
