Due to regular use, sinks often require repairs, especially after damage. Sinks often get chips and cracks from dropped items like glass bottles, pots, or pans. Harsh cleaners and soaps can erode the shiny surface of your sink, making it harder to clean and causing dirt to stick. I have been repairing sinks for many years and can also do full sink restorations by resurfacing the whole surface of your sink when needed. I handle all repairs in your home, and a regular sink repair will take just 1-2 hours. Once the repair is completed, your sink will be ready to use again in 24 hours, saving you time and money. It’s the most economical way to get a brand-new looking sink again without having to actually replace it. I guarantee all my sink repairs for 12 months, and I’m fully insured for your peace of mind. Your sink will be as good as new in no time!
A key element of a top-quality sink repair is ensuring the new enamel paint matches your existing sink perfectly. This process requires mixing tinters into white enamel paint by eye until an exact match to your sink’s colour is achieved. A mismatch in the paint will make the repair noticeable. This highly specialised skill has been developed over years of hands-on work. Even though most sinks are white, there is a huge variation in what shade of white your sink may be. Different brands use different shades of white, and factors like age, usage, and exposure to chemicals or sunlight can all change the shade. I pay close attention to get the perfect colour match whenever I perform repairs. Should you decide to resurface your sink, I will apply a fresh, brilliant white coating to restore it to like-new condition.
I only use top-quality materials that you won't find in your local DIY store. The bonder and enamel paint I use are the best quality, ensuring that all repairs are durable and long-lasting. I’ve trusted these materials for years, and they always produce long-lasting, high-quality results. Some companies use cheaper materials to save money, but this can result in repairs that don’t last and poor outcomes. I offer a 12-month guarantee on all my repairs, unless otherwise noted.
I begin a sink repair by applying a special bonder to the affected area and filling in the damage. Once I’ve matched the paint, I apply a second layer of bonder and then spray on the enamel. The use of a fine spray gun helps the new surface blend into the existing sink, creating a seamless repair.
The first step in any sink repair is assessing the damage to figure out the best solution. If there are just a few chips or scratches, then I can do a simple chip repair that only takes about 1-2 hours. For larger damage that covers a bigger area, resurfacing the entire sink is usually the best option. In the case of a large crack or hole, I can still perform a repair, but I may advise replacing the sink due to possible structural damage. In this case, any repair I do will not come with a guarantee. This situation is the worst-case scenario.
Most sink repairs I perform take around 1-2 hours. It’s far quicker than the process of removing and replacing your sink. Should you choose to resurface your sink, it will take about a day, as I must carefully mask off the surrounding room to prevent overspray. Even so, this is still much faster and more affordable than replacing your sink. My work includes resurfacing antique sinks to restore their beauty and make them look like new. Antique sinks often have intricate detailing and unique features that modern sinks lack. If your sink is in need of repair, I can help restore it.
I ensure all my repairs are completed to the highest standard, focusing on durability and making sure they aren’t visible with normal use. While it’s possible to see something with a torch, it’s not common to use one when you’re using the sink as intended. Reputable repair companies don’t promise invisible repairs, so be wary of companies that do as they likely won’t be in business for long.
By repairing your sink rather than replacing it, you'll save time, money, and reduce your environmental impact. When you repair and restore your sink, you’ll avoid contributing more waste to your local landfill.
I’ve had customers ask if DIY Repair Kits would work for their sink repairs. The problem with DIY Repair Kits is that the materials are of poor quality, leading to a repair that won't last. It is also very hard to get a true colour match with the basic tinter they supply. You’re welcome to give it a go if you feel confident, but I’m here to provide a professional repair when you need it.
How long will a sink repair last?
Each of my sink repairs is backed by a 12-month guarantee. Your sink repair should last just as long as the sink itself, and any failure would occur within the first 12 months. If the sink has structural or significant damage, I can’t guarantee the repair, but I’ll inform you before we proceed. I often recommend replacing the sink when this happens, but if you wish to keep your original sink, we can still repair it.
