What we can’t put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
FAQs for Ermine West
Do you cover the whole of Lincolnshire?
All of Lincolnshire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath or shower and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
All the old sealant comes out. New silicone won’t bond to old.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Prices and what affects them
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send photos for a quote
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Where you are, by postcode
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Email us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your LN1 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Resealing in Ermine West: why it matters
Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Let steam out after showers
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
How the visit works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes around two hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
