Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

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 generally cheaper.

Your questions about sink repair in Norton

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.

What does sink repair cost?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your PO41 postcode.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Do you cover Norton?

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Our sink repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

How to care for the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Do not overtighten taps
  • Avoid abrasive pads

Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

What affects the price in Norton

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material
  • Access to the area
  • How much damage there is

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.

How to get a fixed quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

What happens on the day

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
