DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Shower tray repair at your home in Ermine

You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. We regularly repair acrylic, cast iron and ceramic, and common reasons people contact us are a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and chips caused during fitting.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Ermine. The price depends on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Access to the area
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed price

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

10 questions to ask before you book

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tray usually means removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why book with us

  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Same prices wherever you are

What a repair cannot fix

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

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

What we work on

  • Cast iron
  • Enamelled steel
  • Stone resin
  • Acrylic
  • Ceramic

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Advice

Ermine: your questions answered

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do you come to Ermine?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Ermine for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
