For landlords and businesses
If you manage property in Norton St Philip, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Get chips repaired early
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Norton St Philip questions
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
What information do you need?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Will you remove the sink?
No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.
Repair or replace in Norton St Philip?
Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Our sink repair starts from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features 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.
