Repairs by material
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
Why repair rather than replace?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is usually the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Norton
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
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.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Questions from Norton
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Do you cover the entire of Doncaster?
We work UK-wide, so Norton is covered. Prices do not change with location.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Norton?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Repair chips before they stain
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
What we cannot put right
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Plumbing leaks
- Widespread crazing
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
