Ceramic sinks are more porous compared to composite or porcelain sinks. 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 Preston, we are able to reach you quickly for your ceramic sink repair needs.

Precision Ceramic Sink Repair Colour Matching

Ceramic sinks can come in all different colours, but usually, they will be white. What a lot of people don't realise is there are many shades of white when it comes to sinks, so every repair has to be colour matched to the exact shade of white of your sink. This is a process that takes a lot of skill to perfect. If your ceramic sink is in a colour, then we can colour match to the colour of your sink for your repair also.

Small cracks, scratches, or chips in your sink are the best type of damage to repair. These localized issues are easy for us to fix and restore your sink to its original condition.

For more extensive damage, such as multiple chips or large surface areas affected, the best solution would be to resurface the entire sink. This process applies a new surface over the existing one, restoring the sink to like-new condition. We can even change the colour of your ceramic sink if you desire a new look.

To ensure our repairs last, we use only professional-grade paints. The colour matching process involves blending special tinters with the base colour to perfectly match your sink.

Our Easy Step-by-Step Process:

1. First, we assess the damage to your sink and then select the most effective way to repair it.

2. The damaged area is treated with a specialised bonder to guarantee the next layer sticks properly.

3. {The damaged area is filled and sanded down so the surface is smooth without any bumps.|We fill and sand down the damaged area to ensure the surface is smooth and free of bumps.|The area is filled and sanded to create a smooth surface without any bumps.|After filling the damaged area, we sand it down to ensure a smooth surface with no bumps.|The damaged area is carefully filled an

5. The technician will colour match the new enamel to your sink and carefully spray it on using a fine spray gun.

6. Leave it undisturbed for 24 hours to ensure it fully cures and sets.

Is a ceramic sink repair worth it?

Sink Chip Repair Preston

Made from a mixture of high-quality clay, ceramic sinks are fired at very high temperatures and then 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.

Our repair materials ensure that the repair lasts long and can handle the typical usage a sink, bath, or shower tray undergoes. Blending the repair seamlessly into the surface is a skill that requires expertise. Repairing your sink is always a more affordable option than removing and replacing it, and it involves much less disruption. In cases of severe damage, resurfacing may be an option, but if there is structural damage, replacing the sink is usually recommended over repairing it.

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.

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.

I couldn't believe it when my mother-in-law chipped my brand new ceramic sink! Luckily, you performed an expert repair, and the chip is now completely invisible. What a relief – she’s no longer allowed to help with the washing up!

I had a significant crack in my antique ceramic sink, but I didn’t want to replace it because it’s a key feature of our old house. Thankfully, you were able to repair and restore it, allowing us to continue using it. The crack was large, and we’re so happy you were able to save our sink. Thank you!
