Sink repairs are very common due to the hard usage that sinks have to endure. Accidental drops of glass bottles, pots, pans, etc, can all cause chips and cracks to the surface of your sink. Harsh cleaners and soaps can erode the shiny surface of your sink, making it harder to clean and causing dirt to stick. I specialize in repairing sinks and can resurface the entire sink for a complete restoration. 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. It’s the most economical way to get a brand-new looking sink again without having to actually replace it. My sink repairs are guaranteed for 12 months and I’m fully insured. Your sink will be as good as new in no time!
The most important part of a sink repair is accurately colour matching the new enamel paint to the shade of your sink. The colour matching is done by eye, mixing various tinters into the standard white enamel paint until it perfectly matches your sink. If the new paint doesn't match your sink perfectly, you will notice the repair. 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. The shade of white your sink has depends on the manufacturer, its age, usage, and factors like sun damage or chemical discoloration. It’s important to get an accurate colour match, and I’m very meticulous in doing so. 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 always use professional-grade materials that aren't available at your local DIY store. For lasting repairs, I always use premium bonder and enamel paint. Having used the same materials for many years, I know they work and create lasting high-quality repairs every time. Unlike other companies that use cheaper materials, I only use top-quality products to ensure repairs won’t fail. Every repair I do comes with a 12-month guarantee, unless stated otherwise.
The initial step in my sink repair process is to apply a unique bonder to the damaged area and then fill the damage. Next, I colour match the new paint to your sink and apply another layer of bonder before spraying on the enamel. Applying the new enamel with a fine spray gun guarantees that the repair blends in as smoothly as possible.
The first step in any sink repair is assessing the damage to figure out the best solution. If the damage is just a few chips or scratches, I can handle it with a simple chip repair that takes only 1-2 hours. In cases of more significant damage that spans a larger area, it’s best to resurface the entire sink. For a large crack or hole, I can repair it, but I might suggest replacing the sink due to potential structural issues. Should I choose to repair it, I won’t be able to offer a guarantee on the work. But rest assured, this is an unlikely worst-case scenario.
Most sink repairs I perform take around 1-2 hours. This is much faster than the hassle of removing and replacing your sink. Resurfacing your sink will take a full day, as I spend time masking the room to protect from any overspray. This process is still much quicker and cheaper compared to ripping out and replacing your sink. I have done a lot of work restoring antique sinks to look brand new again by resurfacing them. The detailing and features on antique sinks are often more beautiful than what you find on modern sinks. 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. 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 means you won’t be adding unnecessary waste to the landfill.
I’ve had some customers ask me about DIY Repair Kits and if they could just do their repairs themselves. The issue with DIY Repair Kits is that they include low-quality materials, which means the repair won’t last. The basic tinter in DIY kits makes it challenging to get an accurate colour match. 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 can I expect my sink repair to last?
Every sink repair I do is covered by a 12-month guarantee. Repairs are designed to last as long as the sink itself, and if a failure occurs, it will happen within the first 12 months. In cases of structural or extensive damage, I can’t provide a guarantee, but I’ll make sure to let you know before proceeding. I often recommend replacing the sink when this happens, but if you wish to keep your original sink, we can still repair it.
