This makes it crucial to repair any chips or cracks quickly, as the damaged area can absorb water and potentially develop mould or worsen. Our step-by-step repair process ensures that chips and cracks are fixed easily. With years of experience repairing ceramic sinks, we can restore your sink quickly and efficiently. Based in Herne Bay, we are able to reach you quickly for your ceramic sink repair needs.

Ceramic sinks are composed of high-quality clay that undergoes firing at extremely high temperatures and is then coated with a durable, non-porous glaze or enamel porcelain layer.
We focus on achieving a high-quality repair to your ceramic sink that is undetectable under normal usage.
Our repair materials are chosen to ensure that the repair is long-lasting, capable of withstanding the daily use of sinks, baths, or shower trays. The process of blending a repair into the surface requires a high level of expertise to make the repair as seamless as possible. Repairing your sink is always more cost-effective than replacing the entire unit. It also causes much less disruption compared to a full replacement. In cases of severe damage, we might suggest resurfacing the sink. However, for structural damage, we would recommend replacing the sink instead of attempting a repair. DIY Repair Kits aren’t effective for long-lasting repairs as the materials they provide are of poor quality and it’s difficult to get a perfect colour match. We advise against using them as they often end up being a waste of money. You can try them if you want, but there’s a reason why professional repair companies like us are still around.How long does it typically take to complete 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.
