If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

How we handle bath repair in Merriott
Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. Each material is repaired a little differently: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. Common call-outs are for a chipped rim or side and deep scratches in acrylic, on whirlpool & spa baths, acrylic and pressed steel enamel.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

Questions from Merriott
Do you work in Merriott?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Merriott. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is a bath repair permanent?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including older coloured suites.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
What happens next?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.
The process
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, depending on the damage, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Getting a price

Advice
Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best:
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine, avoiding abrasives.
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.
Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Repairing versus replacing in Merriott
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim typically crack when it comes out, 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. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
