Sink repairs are very common due to the hard usage that sinks have to endure. Things like dropping glass bottles, pots, and pans can easily chip or crack 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’ve been repairing sinks for years and can provide full resurfacing for your sink when necessary. I perform all repairs at your location, and most sink repairs are completed within 1-2 hours. Your sink will be ready to use within 24 hours after repair, saving you time and avoiding replacement costs. Repairing and resurfacing your sink is the most economical way to restore it to like-new condition without replacing it. All sink repairs come with a 12-month guarantee, and I’m fully insured. Your sink will be restored to its original condition 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. On the day of the repair, I mix different tinters into the standard white enamel paint by eye until it matches your sink’s shade exactly. A mismatch in the paint will make the repair noticeable. This highly specialised skill has been developed over years of hands-on work. Most sinks are white, but there is actually a significant variation in their exact shade of white. 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. 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. The bonder and enamel paint I use are the best quality, ensuring that all repairs are durable and long-lasting. Since I’ve been using the same materials for years, I can trust that they 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.
I begin a sink repair by applying a special bonder to the affected area and filling in the damage. I then colour match the new paint to your sink and apply another layer of bonder before spraying on the new 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 there are just a few chips or scratches, then I can do a simple chip repair that only takes about 1-2 hours. If the damage is extensive and affects a large portion of the sink, resurfacing the whole sink would be the most effective solution. 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. Should I choose to repair it, I won’t be able to offer a guarantee on the work. This is the worst-case scenario, though it’s rare.
Most of my sink repairs can be completed in just 1-2 hours. This is a lot quicker than having to remove and replace 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. This process is still much quicker and cheaper compared to ripping out 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 have a sink that needs saving, I can help you.
Every repair I do is completed to a high standard, ensuring it lasts and blends in with regular use. If you shine a torch over the repair, you might spot something, but this is rarely done in regular use. A company that promises an invisible repair is likely not reputable, and they probably won’t be around for long.
Repairing your sink rather than replacing it will save you time, money, and is better for the environment. By choosing to repair your sink, you’re helping reduce waste at your local landfill site.
I’ve had some customers ask me about DIY Repair Kits and if they could just do their repairs themselves. The problem is the DIY Repair Kits only come with poor quality materials, so the repair won’t last. Getting a proper colour match is difficult with the basic tinter that comes with these kits. You can absolutely give it a try if you feel confident, but I’ll be here to do a professional repair when you ask me.
What’s the expected lifespan of a sink repair?
Each of my sink repairs is backed by 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. 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.
