Repairing cracks in your bath is much more affordable than replacing the whole bath! 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 Totton, we offer quick repairs for cracks in your bath, no replacement necessary. Call today for a free, no-obligation quote!

Our technicians have extensive experience repairing cracked baths, and they can quickly assess whether the damage can be repaired or if the bath needs to be replaced. Often, the crack is cosmetic and can be fixed to an excellent 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. We specialize in assessing bath damage to determine whether the crack is repairable or structural. 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. This skill requires years of practice and experience, which our technicians have mastered.

Precise Colour Matching for Bath Crack Repairs

A key step in bath repairs is colour matching the enamel paint. Since baths come in different shades of white, pre-made paint will never match your bath's colour exactly. 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.

Many DIY repair kits offer only one or two shades of white paint, but they won't match your bath’s exact white shade. Baths, shower trays, sinks, and white tiles come in so many different shades of white, and the original shade of white could be affected by the age of your bath, and the usage it has had.

To achieve a seamless repair, our technician will mix a new enamel colour on the day of the repair. Creating a flawless colour match is a skill that requires years of experience. This is why we create the enamel colour on the day, to ensure it perfectly matches the exact white shade 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.

At Surface Doctor, we only use the highest quality, professional-grade materials, including our special adhesive bonder that ensures the repair adheres perfectly to your bath's surface. To guarantee a watertight repair, the crack will be supported from below, filled, and sealed before we apply the new enamel. So our technician will do all of these steps before spraying on the colour-matched new 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.

Detailed Step-by-Step Process:

1. Our technician will assess the crack to determine if it’s easily repairable or if it’s a structural issue. 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 crack will be filled in and smoothed out so that it’s no longer noticeable.

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

5. We’ll match the new enamel paint to the exact white of your bath to ensure a flawless finish, applying it with a fine spray gun.

6. Make sure to leave your bath for 24 hours before using it so the repair has time to cure and set.

7. Feel at ease using your bath again, with no need to rip it out and replace it!

How long will it take to repair a crack in my bath?

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 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 kits use inferior materials compared to the professional-grade materials we provide, and they simply 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 the DIY repair kits worked so well, we would no longer be in business!

How long will a bath crack repair last?

Most of our repairs are long-lasting, but with significant cracks or structural damage, we cannot provide a guarantee since it’s difficult to assess the bath’s durability.

“When I found a big crack in my bath, I was worried about having to replace it. A friend suggested Surface Doctor London, and I’m so glad they did! The technician did an amazing repair, and we were able to use the bath again the next day. It was such a relief to avoid replacing the whole bath. Thanks for the fast and excellent service!”

"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."
