Sinks often require repairs due to the heavy usage they undergo. Things like dropping glass bottles, pots, and pans can easily chip or crack your sink. Harsh cleaning products gradually dull the surface of your sink, making it harder to maintain and clean. I’ve been repairing sinks for years and can provide full resurfacing for your sink when necessary. All of my work is done in-situ, and a normal sink repair will only take about 1-2 hours! Your sink will be ready to use again in just 24 hours, saving both time and money compared to a full replacement. Repairing and resurfacing your sink is the most economical way to restore it to like-new condition without replacing it. I offer a 12-month guarantee on all my sink repairs, and I’m fully insured. Your sink will be as good as new in no time!
One of the most important parts of a great sink repair is to accurately colour match the new enamel paint to your existing sink. The colour matching is done by eye, mixing various tinters into the standard white enamel paint until it perfectly matches your sink. When the new paint isn’t a perfect match, the repair will be visible. This highly specialised skill has been developed over years of hands-on work. While sinks are generally white, the exact shade of white can differ greatly. Your sink’s exact shade of white depends on the manufacturer and factors like age, usage, and chemical or sunlight exposure. I pay close attention to get the perfect colour match whenever I perform repairs. If you opt for a full sink resurfacing, I’ll spray it with a brilliant white finish to make it look as good as new.
I always use professional-grade materials that aren't available at your local DIY store. I’ve sourced the best quality bonder and enamel paint to ensure all my repairs last. I’ve relied on these materials for years, and they consistently create durable, top-quality repairs. 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.
The first step when I do a sink repair is to apply a special bonder to the damaged area and then fill in the damage. Next, I colour match the new paint to your sink and apply another layer of bonder before spraying on the enamel. To ensure a flawless finish, I use a fine spray gun when applying the new surface, so the repair blends in perfectly.
Before I fix any damage on a sink, I always assess how serious the damage is to determine the right repair approach. When dealing with a few chips or scratches, I can fix them quickly with a chip repair that takes about 1-2 hours. If the damage is greater and covers a larger area of the sink, it would be best to resurface the whole sink. For a large crack or hole, I can repair it, but I might suggest replacing the sink due to potential structural issues. In this case, any repair I do will not come with a guarantee. However, this is a worst-case situation.
The average sink repair takes only 1-2 hours. Replacing your sink would take much longer than this repair. If you want to have your sink resurfaced, then this will take me a day to do, as I need to spend a lot of time masking off the rest of the room to protect it from overspray. Once again, resurfacing is far quicker and more cost-effective than removing and replacing your sink. I have done a lot of work restoring antique sinks to look brand new again by resurfacing them. Old antique sinks have beautiful details and features that are hard to find in modern models. I’m here to assist if your sink needs saving.
All of my repairs are done to a very high standard, and this is defined by creating a repair that will last and is not noticeable with normal usage. If you shine a torch over the repair, you might spot something, but this is rarely done in regular use. Be cautious of any repair companies that promise an invisible repair, as no reputable business would make such a guarantee.
Choosing to repair your sink instead of replacing it will save both money and time, and it’s a more environmentally friendly option. Repairing your sink helps cut down on waste and prevents more trash from going to the landfill.
Some people wonder if they can use DIY Repair Kits to fix their sinks on their own. The issue with DIY Repair Kits is that they include low-quality materials, which means the repair won’t last. Another problem is that the basic tinter included makes it difficult to achieve a true colour match. Feel free to try it yourself if you feel up to it, but I’ll be here for a professional repair when you’re ready.
How durable is a sink repair?
I guarantee all my sink repairs for 12 months. A proper sink repair should last as long as the rest of the sink, and if one of our repairs fails, it will most likely happen within the first 12 months. If there’s structural or extensive damage, I can’t offer a guarantee, but I will inform you of this before proceeding with the repair. When this occurs, I usually suggest replacing the sink, but if you want to preserve your original sink, I can still help with the repair.
