It’s common for sinks to need repairs due to the daily wear and tear they experience. Accidents like dropping glass bottles, pots, and pans can lead to chips and cracks on your sink. Using abrasive cleaners or soaps can dull your sink’s surface, making it more prone to dirt build-up. 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 perform all repairs at your location, and most sink repairs are completed within 1-2 hours. In just 24 hours, you can use your sink again, avoiding the hassle and cost of replacement. It’s the most economical way to get a brand-new looking sink again without having to actually replace it. I offer a 12-month guarantee on all my sink repairs, and I’m fully insured. It won’t take long before your sink looks brand new again!
The most important part of a sink repair is accurately colour matching the new enamel paint to the shade of your sink. I carefully blend tinters into the white enamel paint by eye to achieve the exact shade of 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. Although sinks are often white, the specific shade of white can vary considerably. Manufacturers use varying shades of white, and the sink’s age, usage, and exposure to chemicals or sunlight will affect its shade. I have to be very careful to get an accurate colour match whenever I do repairs. Should you decide to resurface your sink, I will apply a fresh, brilliant white coating to restore it to like-new condition.
I always use professional-grade materials that aren't available at your local DIY store. To guarantee long-lasting repairs, I’ve sourced the best quality bonder and enamel paint. Having used the same materials for many years, I know they work and create lasting high-quality repairs every time. Some other companies cut corners by using cheaper materials, but this could lead to repairs failing and poor results. I always provide a 12-month guarantee with my repairs, unless specifically stated otherwise.
I begin a sink repair by applying a special bonder to the affected area and filling in the damage. I colour match the paint to your sink, then apply a second layer of bonder before spraying the enamel. Applying the new enamel with a fine spray gun guarantees that the repair blends in as smoothly as possible.
Whenever I find damage on a sink, I evaluate the extent of it to figure out the most effective repair method. If there are just a few chips or scratches, then I can do a simple chip repair that only takes about 1-2 hours. In cases of more significant damage that spans a larger area, it’s best to resurface the entire sink. If there’s a large crack or hole in the sink, I can still repair it, but I may recommend replacing the sink instead, as it could be causing structural issues. If I proceed with the repair in this situation, I cannot provide a guarantee. But rest assured, this is an unlikely worst-case scenario.
The majority of my sink repairs will only take about 1-2 hours. This is a lot quicker than having to remove and replace your sink. Resurfacing a sink takes a day because I need to carefully mask off the room to avoid overspray. Even so, this is still much faster and more affordable than replacing your sink. I have experience restoring antique sinks and resurfacing them to make them look brand new. The detailing and features on antique sinks are often more beautiful than what you find on modern sinks. If you have a sink that needs attention, I’m here to provide help.
I perform all my repairs to a very high standard, focusing on durability and making sure the repair isn’t noticeable during normal usage. You might be able to spot something with a torch, but that’s not something you’d typically do when using your sink normally. 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 means you won’t be adding unnecessary waste to the landfill.
Some people wonder if they can use DIY Repair Kits to fix their sinks on their own. The problem with DIY Repair Kits is that the materials are of poor quality, leading to a repair that won't last. It’s hard to achieve a true colour match with the basic tinter that’s supplied in these kits. If you want to try it yourself, that’s fine, but I’ll be here for a professional repair when you ask.
What’s the expected lifespan of a sink repair?
All of my sink repairs come with 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. The only time I can't offer a guarantee on a repair is if there is structural damage or extensive damage, and in this case, I'll make sure you know that I can't offer a guarantee before you go ahead with the repair. I often recommend replacing the sink when this happens, but if you wish to keep your original sink, we can still repair it.
