What affects the price in East Norton
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- One picture of the whole basin
- Where you are, by postcode
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
When a repair is not the answer
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Landlord and trade work in East Norton
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that. For a rural home like those around East Norton, a replacement means trades travelling out and waste being taken away, while a repair is a single visit.
Our sink repair starts from £95. 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
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Fixed prices from your photos
- Usually one visit, start to finish
- Nothing taken out or refitted

Repairs by material
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
