Normanby: your questions answered

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Do you come to Normanby?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Normanby. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Generally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Can you repair an antique basin?

Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Tell us about it when you send photos.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

In many cases. Send us photos and we’ll tell you.

Honest limits

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Widespread crazing
  • A basin that moves on its brackets

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

Materials we repair

  • Enamelled basins
  • Vanity unit basins
  • Antique & period basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in North Lincolnshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

What we do, step by step

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

How to look after the repair

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it does not get chipped again.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The material, if you know it
  • A picture taken from further back

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique

Period basins often 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 finish the repair to the same sheen.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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, then guarantee it for a year.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Do you need sink repair in Normanby?

Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • Chips from dropped toiletries
  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
  • Fine cracks across the glaze

Questions to ask before booking

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
