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. Things like using harsh cleaners and soaps will slowly erode the shiny surface of your sink, making dirt stick to it and compromising its top layer. With years of experience repairing sinks, I also offer full sink restorations through resurfacing. All of my work is done in-situ, and a normal sink repair will only take about 1-2 hours! Once the repair is completed, your sink will be ready to use again in 24 hours, saving you time and money. This is the most economical option for making your sink look new again without the expense of replacement. My sink repairs are guaranteed for 12 months and I’m fully insured. Your sink will look brand 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 must be done by eye on the day of your repair, mixing various tinters into the standard white enamel paint until I get an exact match to your sink. When the new paint isn’t a perfect match, the repair will be visible. I’ve perfected this skill after years of repairing sinks and colour matching. While sinks are generally white, the exact shade of white can differ greatly. Manufacturers use varying shades of white, and the sink’s age, usage, and exposure to chemicals or sunlight will affect its shade. I pay close attention to get the perfect colour match whenever I perform repairs. If you choose to have your whole sink resurfaced, I will spray it with a new brilliant white so it looks brand new again.
I rely on professional-grade materials that are not found in your local DIY store. To guarantee long-lasting repairs, I’ve sourced the best quality bonder and enamel paint. 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. All repairs come with a 12-month guarantee, unless otherwise stated.
The repair process starts with applying a special bonder to the damaged area and filling it in. 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.
When I come across sink damage, I first assess how severe it is so I can decide on the best repair method. For minor chips or scratches, I can complete a quick chip repair in just 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. 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. If I repair it in this situation, I can’t offer a guarantee. This is the worst-case scenario, though it’s rare.
The average sink repair takes only 1-2 hours. This is much faster than the hassle 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. Once again, resurfacing is far quicker and more cost-effective than removing and replacing your sink. I’ve successfully restored many antique sinks, resurfacing them to look like new. Antique sinks typically feature intricate detailing that is not found on most modern sinks. If you have a sink that needs attention, I’m here to provide help.
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. No reputable repair company will promise you an invisible repair, so be wary of any companies that do, because they probably 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. You won’t be adding more waste to your local landfill site when you choose to repair and restore your sink.
I’ve had customers ask if DIY Repair Kits would work for their sink repairs. DIY Repair Kits often include poor-quality materials that won’t provide a lasting repair. Getting a proper colour match is difficult with the basic tinter that comes with 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?
I guarantee all my sink repairs for 12 months. Your sink repair should last just as long as the sink itself, and any failure would occur within the first 12 months. I can’t offer a guarantee if there’s structural or extensive damage, and I’ll let you know before starting 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.
