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 for ripping out and replacing the bath, plus fixing the surrounding tiles and walls, are typically a high, unplanned expense. At Surface Doctor Woolacombe, we can repair the crack in your bath quickly without needing to replace the whole bath. Call today for a 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. In many instances, the crack is superficial and can be repaired seamlessly. 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 technicians are experts at assessing the damage to determine what type of crack your bath has. Our technicians use a specialized procedure to achieve a repair of the highest quality, making it undetectable. To ensure the repair looks flawless, our technicians will match the enamel paint to your bath’s exact colour on-site. This is a very precise skill and takes many years of practice and experience to perfect - which luckily all our technicians have!
1. The technician will evaluate the crack to determine whether it can be easily repaired or if it’s structural. For structural damage, we advise against repairing it, and if you proceed with a repair, we cannot provide a warranty.
2. The technician will clean the damaged area and reinforce the crack from below the bath to make it watertight. 3. The next step is to fill in the crack and smooth it out so you can't feel it anymore. 4. Then the technician will apply our specialised bonder to the repair in preparation 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. It’s important to leave your bath for 24 hours to allow the repair to fully cure and set. 7. Feel at ease using your bath again, with no need to rip it out and replace it!
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!
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 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. 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 issue with DIY repair kits is that the materials are of much lower quality than the professional-grade materials we use, and they won’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?
For most repairs, the results will last as long as your bath, but in cases of extensive cracks or structural damage, we cannot offer a guarantee due to the uncertainty of how long the bath will remain intact.
