Ceramic sinks are more porous than composite or porcelain, which means that when they chip or crack, it's important to repair them immediately to prevent water absorption and further damage like mould. Chips and cracks are easily fixed with our step-by-step repair process. With years of experience, we can get your ceramic sink back to its best in no time. As we are based in Gilmerton, we can respond quickly to your ceramic sink repair needs.
1. First, we assess the damage to your sink and then select the most effective way to repair it.
2. We use a specialised bonder on the damaged area to ensure the next layer adheres effectively. 3. The area is filled and sanded to create a smooth surface without any bumps. 4. We then apply another layer of bonder over the filler. 5. Now, the technician will match the enamel colour to your sink and apply it with a fine spray gun. 6. Allow it to cure and set for 24 hours.
High-quality clay is used to create ceramic sinks, which are fired at extremely high temperatures and coated with a durable, non-porous glaze or enamel porcelain coating.
We focus on achieving a high-quality repair to your ceramic sink that is undetectable under normal usage.
We use materials that guarantee a long-lasting repair, capable of withstanding the normal usage expected of sinks, baths, and shower trays. Repairing and blending the damage into the surface requires skill to ensure the repair is as seamless as possible. Repairing your sink is far more cost-effective than replacing it, and it minimizes the disruption compared to a full replacement. If the damage is severe, resurfacing may be recommended, but for structural damage, replacement is often the best solution. DIY Repair Kits will not create a lasting repair as the materials that are provided are not good quality and it will be very hard to get a colour match. We do not recommend trying these as they end up being a waste of money. It's obviously up to you if you want to try it, but there is a reason why we are still in business as a professional repair company.How long will the repair take?
For a couple of simple chip repairs, the process takes around 1-2 hours. However, larger crack or hole repairs will take more time, and sink resurfacing will typically take about 4-5 hours. After any repair, it’s important to wait 24 hours for the sink to fully cure and harden.
