Due to regular use, sinks often require repairs, especially after damage. Accidental drops of glass bottles, pots, pans, etc, can all cause chips and cracks to the surface of your sink. Harsh cleaning products gradually dull the surface of your sink, making it harder to maintain and clean. With extensive experience in sink repairs, I can also resurface your sink for full restoration when required. All repairs are completed on-site, and a standard sink repair takes just 1-2 hours. You’ll be able to use your sink again 24 hours later, saving you time and money on having it replaced. Repairing and resurfacing is the most affordable way to restore your sink’s appearance without replacing it. All sink repairs come with a 12-month guarantee, and I’m fully insured. Your sink will be looking brand new again in no time!
One of the most important parts of a great sink repair is to accurately colour match the new enamel paint to 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. If the paint doesn’t match your sink exactly, you’ll be able to see the repair. I’ve refined this specialised skill over many years of experience. Even though white is the most common sink colour, the shade of white can vary widely. Different manufacturers use different shades, and factors like the age of the sink, how much usage it’s had, and if it has been discoloured by chemicals or sunlight can all affect the final colour. Getting the exact colour match is crucial, so I’m very careful when doing repairs. When resurfacing your sink, I’ll apply a brilliant white coat to give it a brand-new appearance.
I only use top-quality materials that you won't find in your local DIY store. For lasting repairs, I always use premium bonder and enamel paint. With years of experience using these materials, I know they provide consistent, durable, and high-quality repairs. Other companies may try to cut costs with cheaper materials, but that can lead to failed repairs and subpar 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. Next, I colour match the new paint to your sink and apply another layer of bonder before spraying on the enamel. To ensure a flawless finish, I use a fine spray gun when applying the new surface, so the repair blends in perfectly.
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. When dealing with a few chips or scratches, I can fix them quickly with a chip repair that takes about 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 proceed with the repair in this situation, I cannot provide a guarantee. This situation is the worst-case scenario.
Most sink repairs I perform take around 1-2 hours. This is a lot quicker than having to remove and replace your sink. 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 have done a lot of work restoring antique sinks to look brand new again by resurfacing them. Old antique sinks have beautiful details and features that are hard to find in modern models. If you have a sink that needs saving, I can help you.
All of my repairs are done to a very high standard, and this is defined by creating a repair that will last and is not noticeable with normal usage. 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.
By repairing your sink rather than replacing it, you'll save time, money, and reduce your environmental impact. Repairing your sink means you won’t be adding unnecessary waste 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. 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.
How durable is 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. If the sink has structural or significant damage, I can’t guarantee the repair, but I’ll inform you before we proceed. 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.
