Precision Ceramic Sink Repair Colour Matching

Ceramic sinks can come in many colours, but white is the most common. What many don’t realise is that there are numerous shades of white, so we always match repairs to the exact shade of your sink. This requires a high level of skill. For coloured ceramic sinks, we can also match the repair to the specific colour of your sink.

The most manageable damage to repair is when your sink has one or two chips, some scratches, or a crack in a small area. These localized repairs are simple for us to handle.

For sinks with extensive damage, such as multiple chips or cracks covering a large area, resurfacing is the ideal solution. This process applies a fresh surface over your sink, making it look like new again. Additionally, if you want to change the colour of your ceramic sink, we can apply a different shade for a fresh look.

We rely on professional-grade paints to guarantee long-lasting repairs. Colour matching is done by adding specialized tinters to the base colour until we achieve an exact match to your sink's colour.

Basic Step by Step Process:

1. We will assess what type of damage your sink has and decide on the best way to repair it.

2. To ensure proper adhesion, we apply a specialised bonder to the damaged area.

3. After filling the damaged area, we sand it down to ensure a smooth surface with no bumps.

5. Next, the technician will colour match the enamel to your sink and apply it using a fine spray gun.

6. Let it sit for 24 hours to fully cure and set.

Surface Doctor Porcelain Sink Crack Fix

Ceramic sinks are crafted from high-quality clay that is fired at high temperatures, followed by a coating of durable, non-porous glaze or enamel porcelain.

We focus on achieving a high-quality repair to your ceramic sink that is undetectable under normal usage.

The materials we use for our repairs ensure that it is a long and lasting repair, that can withstand the usage a sink, bath, or shower tray would be expected to receive. Blending a repair into the surface takes a lot of skill and expertise to make sure it is as seamless as possible. Having your sink repaired will always be more cost-effective than ripping out your damaged sink and replacing it. There is much less disruption when a repair is done instead of replacing it. Occasionally, when the damage is extensive, we may recommend resurfacing your sink. If the damage is structural, we will most likely recommend replacing the sink rather than repairing it.

While DIY Repair Kits may seem like an option, they don’t create lasting repairs because of poor-quality materials and a difficult colour match process. We don’t suggest using them as they typically waste your money. It’s up to you, but there’s a reason professional repair companies like us continue to thrive.

What is the estimated time for the repair?

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.
