Eric Bates & Sons Ltd is a respected three-generation family run business based in the heart of the Norfolk Broads. Since Eric formed the business back in the 1970's as a respected antique dealer both locally and nationally, we have worked tirelessly to develop our brand of furniture manufacture known for its outstanding quality and beauty. We are proud to offer a full planning, design, manufacturing and fitting service which is available for any room in the home. We will include small building works, plumbing, tiling and decorating if required and will project manage everything for you giving you complete peace of mind from start to finish.
We are delighted to offer a range of wood and stone flooring that can be fitted as part of our overall kitchen or interior design project management service. Options can be discussed during the initial planning meeting and samples are available to view in our showroom.
Natural granite is our preferred choice for any bespoke kitchen. Granite is a very hard and durable surface that can withstand heat and water extremely well. Depending on the type you select for your space, there are often beautiful colours and configurations to choose from. Being a natural product, every piece is slightly different, and we recommend you visit our supplier where you can select your desired slab from their large stock collection. They can also source specific types if they do not have it in stock, depending on availability and quantity required.
When you furnish your home with Eric Bates & Sons, you'll get high-quality pieces made with only the best materials available. We can help you with pieces that fit your style and functionality needs. The majority of our furniture now comes under our bespoke design umbrella and we are currently building a portfolio of items previously made for customers which we will add to the website in the coming weeks. In the meantime please get in touch with us through our contact page and we will be delighted to discuss your requirements with you in person.
We offer a free consultation and design service and can manage your new kitchen installation from start to finish, liaising with other builders and tradesmen if required to ensure everything runs according to plan and on schedule.

The appliances you need are completely your choice, and we will design your kitchen with all of your requests in mind.

This will ensure you achieve your dream kitchen since our real expertise lies in the cabinetry work and detailing in your kitchen.

What a year that turned out to be. Thank you so much to all our customers who have supported us through this difficult time. Let's hope 2021 sees things get back to some sort of normal. To finish the year we marked the 25-year long service of Andy who works in the mill and wished a wonderful.
Just a reminder that we are taking a summer break next week. This is purely because a large number of the team requested the week off anyway and everyone has a higher than usual amount of annual holiday available to them due to the lockdown earlier in the year. Hopefully the sun will shine as.
We have decided to have a summer break this year, we wouldn't normally but this isn't a normal year is it. We will just be closed for the four working days so we will answer any enquiries on our return. Just hope the sun keeps shining
