I can take care of all your sink repairs in Madeley. Don't wait for the damage to get worse. Give me a call now to get a free quote and my expert advice on the best way to repair your sink.
Due to regular use, sinks often require repairs, especially after damage. Accidents like dropping glass bottles, pots, and pans can lead to chips and cracks on 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. I’ve been repairing sinks for years and can provide full resurfacing for your sink when necessary. All repairs are completed on-site, and a standard sink repair takes just 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. This is the most cost-effective way to make your sink look brand new without the need for replacement. I offer a 12-month guarantee on all my sink repairs, and I’m fully insured. Your sink will be restored to its original condition in no time!
For a flawless sink repair, it’s essential to match the new enamel paint to the existing sink colour. 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. If the paint doesn’t match your sink exactly, you’ll be able to see the repair. 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. Ensuring an accurate colour match is essential, and I take great care when performing sink 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 only use top-quality materials that you won't find 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. I’ve trusted these materials for years, and they always produce long-lasting, high-quality results. 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.
When repairing a sink, the first thing I do is apply a special bonder to the damaged area before filling it in. I then colour match the new paint to your sink and apply another layer of bonder before spraying on the new enamel. Applying the new enamel with a fine spray gun guarantees that the repair blends in as smoothly as possible.
Whenever I encounter damage on a sink, I have to make sure I know how bad the damage is so I can determine the best way to fix it. In cases of minor chips or scratches, I can perform a quick chip repair that usually takes around 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. 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. In this case, if I do the repair, I wouldn’t be able to offer a guarantee on it. But rest assured, this is an unlikely worst-case scenario.
Most sink repairs I perform take around 1-2 hours. Replacing your sink would take much longer than this repair. If you opt for a sink resurfacing, this will take me a full day to complete, due to the need to mask off the area for protection. This process is still much quicker and cheaper compared to ripping out and replacing your sink. I’ve successfully restored many antique sinks, resurfacing them to look like new. Antique sinks often have intricate detailing and unique features that modern sinks lack. 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. 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.
Having your sink repaired instead of replacing it will save you money, time, and is environmentally friendly. 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. DIY Repair Kits use low-quality materials, so the repair is unlikely to last long. It is also very hard to get a true colour match with the basic tinter they supply. 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.
What’s the expected lifespan of a sink repair?
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. When this happens, I usually recommend replacing the sink, but if you want to keep your original sink, we can still help you repair it.
