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’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. 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 crucial part of a successful sink repair is matching the new enamel paint to the exact colour of 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. A mismatch in the paint will make the repair noticeable. I’ve perfected this skill after years of repairing sinks and colour matching. Although sinks are often white, the specific shade of white can vary considerably. Your sink’s exact shade of white depends on the manufacturer and factors like age, usage, and chemical or sunlight exposure. I have to be very careful to get an accurate colour match whenever I do repairs. If you decide to resurface your entire sink, I will apply a brilliant white finish to restore its original look.
I only use top-quality materials that you won't find in your local DIY store. I use only the highest quality bonder and enamel paint to ensure all repairs stand the test of time. With years of experience using these materials, I know they provide consistent, durable, and high-quality repairs. Some other companies cut corners by using cheaper materials, but this could lead to repairs failing and poor results. I offer a 12-month guarantee on all my repairs, unless otherwise noted.
The repair process starts with applying a special bonder to the damaged area and filling it in. Next, I colour match the new paint to your sink and apply another layer of bonder before spraying on the enamel. I use a fine spray gun to apply the new surface, which ensures the repair blends seamlessly.
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. If the damage is greater and covers a larger area of the sink, it would be best to resurface the whole sink. If the sink has a large crack or hole, I can repair it, but it might be better to replace the sink if it's leading to structural concerns. Should I choose to repair it, I won’t be able to offer a guarantee on the work. But this is the worst-case scenario.
Typically, my sink repairs take only 1-2 hours to complete. This is much faster than removing your sink and replacing it. 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 have experience restoring antique sinks and resurfacing them to make them look brand new. Antique sinks often have intricate detailing and unique features that modern sinks lack. If you need a sink restored or repaired, I’m here to 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. If you were to get out a torch and shine it over the surface, you may be able to see something, but this is not very common when using your sink normally. A company that promises an invisible repair is likely not reputable, and they probably won’t be around for long.
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.
I’ve had customers ask if DIY Repair Kits would work for their sink repairs. The issue with DIY Repair Kits is that they include low-quality materials, which means the repair won’t last. It’s hard to achieve a true colour match with the basic tinter that’s supplied in these kits. 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 long can I expect my sink repair to last?
Every sink repair I do is covered by a 12-month guarantee. 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 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.
