Ceramic sinks are more porous than composite or porcelain sinks. For this reason, when you chip or crack a ceramic sink, it's important to have it repaired straight away so the damaged area does not start to absorb water and develop mould or worsen the damage. Chips and cracks are easy to repair with our specialised step-by-step procedure. We have been repairing damage to ceramic sinks for many years, so we know how to get your ceramic sink back to its former glory again fast! We are based in Ilkeston so we can get to you quickly when you need a ceramic sink repair.
1. First, we assess the damage to your sink and then select the most effective way to repair it.
2. A specialised bonder is applied to the damaged area to ensure the next layer bonds securely. 3. After filling the damaged area, we sand it down to ensure a smooth surface with no bumps. 4. We apply an additional layer of bonder over the filler to secure it. 5. The technician will colour match the new enamel to your sink and carefully spray it on using a fine spray gun. 6. Give it 24 hours to fully cure and set.
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.
Our expert repair process aims for high-quality results that you won't notice with regular use of your ceramic sink.
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. 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.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.
