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 Shawlands so we can get to you quickly when you need a ceramic sink repair.
1. We will assess the extent of the damage to your sink and choose the best repair solution.
2. We apply a specialised bonder to the damaged area to make sure the next layer adheres properly. 3. We fill and sand down the damaged area to ensure the surface is smooth and free of bumps. 4. We apply an additional layer of bonder over the filler to secure it. 5. Next, the technician will colour match the enamel to your sink and apply it using a fine spray gun. 6. Allow it to cure and set for 24 hours.
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 aim to achieve a high-quality expert repair to your ceramic sink that you won't be able to notice with 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 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.
