Sink repair in Norton without replacing anything
A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. We fill, shape and polish the damage so it blends into the glaze. If you’re dealing with damage to a basin in a vanity unit and an antique basin with chips, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

Common questions in Norton
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you come to Norton?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Norton and the rest of North Somerset. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Repairs by material
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
How to get a price

Landlord and trade work in Norton
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Repair chips before they stain
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
Why repair rather than replace?
Basins are often built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
