Bath Repair in Merrion

- Repairs from £95

Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

How we handle bath repair in Merrion
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. The method changes with the material: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. We regularly repair pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and the jobs we see most are holes from dropped items and a kit repair that didn’t last.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Merrion and across Pembrokeshire.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
How to care for the repair
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, just sensible cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so it pays to deal with it early.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.
Common questions in Merrion
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including older coloured suites.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
What happens next?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Merrion. The price comes down to:
- The material and finish
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Details of any past repairs
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, a new panel is frequently needed, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. A repair skips all of it. Prices start from £95. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why book with us
- A fixed quote before you book
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, depending on the damage from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
