When your plastic tub has suffered a crack, Surface Doctor’s acrylic bath crack repair in Gateshead offers a practical solution to repair it, avoiding the need for a full replacement. Our specialized service addresses splits to extend your tub’s life with little disruption in Gateshead.
When your plastic bath is readily removable without damaging many surroundings, and you know a reliable handyman or are capable at home, replacing the tub might be a straightforward choice. A replacement bath includes a guarantee and a fresh finish. But, if removing the tub involves significant tile removal or costly reinstallation, the process can be invasive and expensive in Gateshead. In such situations, Surface Doctor’s acrylic bath crack repair in Gateshead is a budget-friendly and practical alternative.
Surface Doctor’s acrylic bath crack repair in Gateshead is perfect for baths with single splits or minor damage. We effectively fix most cracks by reinforcing the damaged spot and using a durable coating that blends the tub’s existing shade, delivering a invisible result. As an example, we restored a split plastic bath in Gateshead, renewing its smooth surface without removing it, saving the client expensive renovations.
Some splits are fixable. If your bath has multiple small cracks, particularly in the base, it may indicate a support problem. For older plastic baths, a support base under the bath provides strength. When this support deteriorates, it causes excessive movement, resulting in many centimetre-long splits, often black from grime buildup. This suggests the bath’s gel coat is failing, and repairing will only provide a short-term fix, as new splits reappear with use. In such cases, swapping is the recommended option.
Likewise, if the bath’s bottom is forced upward by its supports, causing cracks in the surface, acrylic bath crack repair in Gateshead will not last. Our experts evaluate the damage and entry to the back of the tub to confirm if a fix is possible. Send us a picture of the split, and our head technician will assess the viability of a successful acrylic bath crack repair in Gateshead.
A hole in your acrylic tub can occur easily, often from a fallen object piercing the skin. Surface Doctor’s acrylic bath hole repair in Gateshead offers a budget-friendly solution to repair most damages, delivering a invisible result that matches your tub’s existing look, avoiding the expense of replacement.
Surface Doctor can repair most holes in plastic baths in Gateshead, provided we can reach the underside of the affected area. For instance, a hole between the taps is repairable if we can access below the bath to that location. But, repairs might not be possible in:
Bottom Damage: Older acrylic baths often have a wooden layer under the base, blocking access to the underside of the hole.
Edge Damage: Wooden reinforcements under the edges of aging tubs can impede reach, making repairs difficult.
Unsure if your tub’s damage is fixable? Take off the bath panel to check if you can reach the affected spot by hand, or call Surface Doctor at 01342 324 577. Alternatively, send a picture of the damage, and our lead technician will evaluate the viability of acrylic bath hole repair in Gateshead.
If your plastic tub is a typical size (e.g., 1700mm) and can be removed without disturbing tiles, especially if you’re skilled with installation, swapping the tub might be more affordable. A new tub includes a guarantee and a fresh look. However, if extraction involves extensive surface replacement or costly plumbing, acrylic bath hole repair in Gateshead is a practical alternative, saving cost and disruption in your Gateshead bathroom.
Each bath repair requires a specially mixed enamel paint to blend seamlessly. Our team expertly colour-matches the enamel to blend flawlessly with your bath. They do this using specialised tinters so the new paint will match your bath exactly.
Every bath, sink, and shower tray has a unique white tone, making pre-made paints unsuitable.
Each enamel colour is prepared on-site to perfectly match your bath’s original shade. Our technicians have many years of experience colour matching in this way, so your bath will be in capable hands with us.
Before the new enamel is sprayed on, the technician will use a specialised bonder to make sure the repair sticks to your bath properly. We fill in all cracks, chips, and dents before applying the final enamel coat. Using a specialized spray system, the enamel is applied in a fine, even coat.
If your plastic tub is in decent condition but has a scratch, Surface Doctor’s acrylic bath repair in Gateshead provides a localized solution to restore the issue with exact colour matching, ensuring a seamless result that matches your bath’s existing appearance.
Acrylic tubs can sustain cracks that mar their appearance, but if the remainder of the tub is in fair condition, our acrylic bath repair in Gateshead is a cost-effective alternative to replacement. We specialize in aligning the repair to your tub’s exact colour, even ivory baths, which vary in tone (e.g., pure white or off-white). For example, we repaired a cracked plastic tub in Gateshead, perfectly blending the fix to its glossy surface.
Our acrylic bath repair in Gateshead yields best results when the tub is generally in sound condition, with minimal marks or wear. If the tub has extensive abrasions or a dull surface from overzealous scrubbing, the repair may be noticeable, as the surrounding bath loses its glossy sheen. In such cases, a complete restoration might be recommended for a consistent finish.
Although plastic tubs are often inexpensive to replace when uninstalled, replacing a fitted bath in Gateshead can be costly due to labour for removal, tile replacement, and fixture adjustments. Our acrylic bath repair in Gateshead reduces cost and disruption by restoring the damage in-situ, saving your bathroom’s existing design.
As an example, we fixed a dented plastic tub in Gateshead, renewing its smooth appearance minus removing it, sparing the homeowner costly re-tiling.
Not all cracks in plastic baths are repairable. If the crack is in an inaccessible area or the underside can’t be reached for support, the repair may fail to hold. Email us a picture of the issue, and our head technician will assess whether acrylic bath repair in Gateshead is possible for your tub.

When it comes to sink fracture fixing, fixing cracks effectively while safeguarding the sink’s visual appeal and antique charm is essential. Fractured washbasins, particularly vintage or old models, create unique challenges. In the earlier times, repairing a fractured washbasin was unreliable—small breaks could be fixed with refinishing, but there was no assurance the damage wouldn’t expand. Major breaks, notably on the base, frequently made lasting repairs unfeasible, leaving homeowners with limited options.
Antique sinks, valued for their unique styles, often sustain fractures, hindering restoration efforts. Refinishing a basin may erase precious manufacturer logos, which are often essential to the sink’s character. While some sinks’ signature looks are still identifiable without the mark, numerous clients prefer to keep these marks for originality. Recognizing this, our experts at Surface Doctor has refined cutting-edge sink crack repair methods to refurbish washbasins while safeguarding their maker’s stamps.
Skilled Basins Damage Restoration in Gateshead by Surface Doctor
With extensive knowledge, Surface Doctor specializes in repairing basins, from slight breaks to severe damage, including washbasins with shattered sections. Our state-of-the-art basin damage restoration techniques allow us to refurbish sinks to their original beauty while safeguarding manufacturer logos. Whether it’s a traditional sink or a current washbasin, we provide durable, top-notch repairs.
For example, we refurbished a beautiful grand historical washbasin for a customer in Gateshead. This washbasin had significant damage on both inner surface and base, rendering it a challenging project for fixing. In the previous years, such fractures would have made the washbasin unfixable or the restoration unstable. Using our knowledge, we meticulously restored each inside and exterior, reconditioned the antique taps and drain, and included an original plug mechanism. Although this repair took place before we fully developed our mark safeguarding technique, the washbasin’s signature look ensured its timeless appeal. The result was a beautifully refurbished sink that now acts as a focal point in the homeowner’s bath space.
Preserving History with Cutting-Edge Approaches
Shortly after this restoration, Surface Doctor improved our basin fracture restoration approach to incorporate stamp retention. In an additional project, we refurbished couple of exquisite washbasins at a personal home. One had a significant break, while the other was deeply discolored and marked but displayed a valuable logo worth preserving. Our specialists effectively repaired the fractures, cleaned the discolored basin, and optionally upgraded or restored the valves, outlets, and drain plugs. The result? Two stunning basins that preserved their original charm and performance.

If|When} your metal bath has a damage in its enamel but is generally in excellent condition, Surface Doctor’s cast iron bath chip repair in Gateshead provides a localized solution to repair the chip, ensuring a flawless finish that preserves your tub’s beauty minus the cost for full resurfacing.
Cast iron tubs are durable, but their enamel, a layer of colored glass bonded to the substrate, can crack from accidents like dropped tools, transit bumps, or excessively tightened faucets, outlets, or drains. Although enamel is hard and resists tear, a sudden impact can shatter the bond with the metal, causing a chip. Surface Doctor’s cast iron bath chip repair in Gateshead repairs these chips cost-effectively, restoring the tub’s look minus the complexity of replacing the entire tub.
For example, we restored a chipped cast iron bath in Gateshead, perfectly blending the repair to the existing surface, making the chip nearly invisible and preserving the bath’s classic aesthetic.
Our cast iron bath chip repair in Gateshead is best for tubs in good state, with minimal damage and no widespread discoloration, wear, or cleaning issues. If the tub’s enamel is discoloured, rough, or difficult to maintain, a chip fix might stand out as the surrounding surface deteriorates or changes colour over use. In such situations, we suggest our full bath resurfacing in Gateshead to tackle both the damage and overall surface issues for a consistent result.

Shower pans, like tubs, are made from various substances, including plastic, resin, and cast iron. At Surface Doctor, we excel in restoring and re-enamelling all types of shower trays to restore their original condition through our expert shower pan resurfacing in Gateshead.
Over time, shower trays can diminish their glossy finish, causing dirt to build up, which becomes difficult to clean. Persistent marks, particularly in areas where water collects and drains gradually, can resist even the most vigorous cleaning. Surface Doctor’s shower pan resurfacing in Gateshead restores your shower tray to its like-new finish without the hassle for replacement.
Although shower pans themselves are often affordable, swapping them can lead to substantial expenses due to labour for removal, installation, and repairing surrounding tiles, splashbacks, or marble materials. In Gateshead, replacing a shower pan could damage your beautiful space aesthetic, leading to expensive repairs. Shower pan resurfacing in Gateshead provides a cost-effective option by restoring the tray in-situ, saving your bathroom’s integrity.
Surface Doctor’s shower pan resurfacing in Gateshead is a efficient process done by a single professional in a single session, reducing inconvenience to your Gateshead household. The shower tray is ready by the next day, and the work space remains accessible immediately after we finish.

For cracks, we require details about the crack’s location and access to the bottom of the pan for strengthening.

Send us a picture of the issue, and our head technician will assess the likelihood of a successful fix.
Surface Doctor’s non-slip bath and shower tray coating in Gateshead improves safety by adding a rough coating to your tub or pan, preventing slips while preserving a sleek look. Our professional solution delivers a long-lasting, translucent non-slip coating that integrates perfectly with your Gateshead bathroom.
Tubs and pans are designed with smooth, hard surfaces to enable simple cleaning and keep their aesthetic. But, these polished areas can become highly slick when wet, increasing the risk of dangerous accidents. Surface Doctor’s non-slip bath and shower tray coating in Gateshead adds a rough surface that provides grip for your feet, ensuring security without sacrificing appearance.
Our non-slip bath and shower tray coating in Gateshead is ideal for:
Seniors or Disabled Users: Adding a fixed anti-slip surface to an existing slippery bath in Gateshead homes for security.
Commercial and Hospitals: Providing a durable anti-slip solution that’s built-in, avoiding removable mats that can breed germs or be forgotten.
Degraded Non-Slip Areas: Restoring traction on tubs or pans where the original textured area has worn out after heavy use.
After Restoration: Applying a non-slip coating to resurfaced baths or pans in Gateshead, which become too smooth and sacrifice grip. Important: Using a bath mat on a restored tub can harm the new finish.
As an example, we added a non-slip finish to a recently fitted plastic bath in Gateshead for a tenant with back challenges. The glossy surface was too slick, and our translucent rough coating ensured security while maintaining the tub’s aesthetic.

Antique bathtubs may have special traits like undulations, bumps, valleys, or small imperfections from the initial coating method.
