We offer bath crack repairs at a fraction of the cost of replacing your entire bath! Finding a crack in your bath is a hassle, as it can lead to leaks and worsen over time, making your bath unusable. 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. Surface Doctor Tollcross can fix the crack in your bath efficiently, saving you the hassle and cost of full replacement. Call us now for a no-obligation free 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 cracks are merely superficial and can be repaired to look like new. 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. When repairs are possible, our technicians follow a specialized process to ensure a flawless repair that blends seamlessly into 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.

Colour Matching for Bath Crack Repairs

For the best repair, we ensure the enamel paint is colour-matched precisely to your bath. Since all baths are different shades of white, pre-made paint won’t suffice. We use specialized tinters to create a custom enamel paint that matches your bath’s exact shade of white for a flawless repair. This is achieved using specialised tinters for the perfect match.

Most DIY repair kits only offer a couple of white shades, which won’t perfectly match your bath’s original colour. The white of your bath, shower tray, sink, or tiles can differ depending on age and use, as there are numerous shades of white.

Our technician will create your own new enamel colour on the day, to ensure that the repair blends in as seamlessly as possible. Matching the enamel colour perfectly requires a high level of skill and years of experience. Creating the enamel colour on-site ensures a perfect match to the exact shade of white of your bath or shower tray. With years of experience in colour matching, our technicians will ensure a perfect result.

Our materials are of the highest professional grade, including an exclusive adhesive bonder that guarantees the repair stays firmly in place. Before spraying on the new enamel, the crack will need to be supported from underneath, filled in, and sealed to ensure the bath is watertight. All these steps will be completed by our technician before the final layer of colour-matched enamel is sprayed onto 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.

Full Step By Step Procedure:

1. Our technician will examine the crack to identify whether it's repairable or if it’s a structural issue. In cases of structural damage, we’ll advise not repairing it, and a warranty won’t be offered if you choose to proceed.

2. The technician will clean the surface and then strengthen the crack from the underside to ensure the bath remains watertight.

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

4. The technician will then apply our custom bonder to the repair to get it ready for the next 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. For the repair to fully cure and set, leave your bath unused for 24 hours.

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?

Long bathtub crack repair service in Tollcross

The time it takes to repair a crack depends on the severity and whether it's structural, but typically takes between 1-2 hours to half a day. This is much quicker than replacing your entire 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.

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.

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. 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. It's also very hard to achieve a true colour match to the surface of your bath as the repair kit will only provide you with one or two shades of white to use on your repair. If DIY repair kits were truly effective, we wouldn’t have stayed in business as long as we have!

How long will a bath crack repair last?

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 a major crack in my bath and didn’t want to deal with replacing it. A friend recommended Surface Doctor London, and I’m so happy they did! The technician did a great job repairing it, and we were able to use the bath again the very next day. I’m so relieved we didn’t have to replace the entire bath. Very grateful for the speedy repair!”
