Give me a call now to get a free quote and my expert advice on the best way to repair your sink.
It’s common for sinks to need repairs due to the daily wear and tear they experience. Sinks often get chips and cracks from dropped items like glass bottles, pots, or pans. The use of strong cleaners and soaps can damage your sink’s finish, causing dirt to adhere and wear down its surface. With extensive experience in sink repairs, I can also resurface your sink for full restoration when required. I do all my repairs on-site, and a typical sink repair only takes 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. It won’t take long before your sink looks brand new again!
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. A mismatch in the paint will make the repair noticeable. Through years of experience, I’ve mastered this specialised skill in sink repairs. While sinks are generally white, the exact shade of white can differ greatly. Manufacturers use varying shades of white, and the sink’s age, usage, and exposure to chemicals or sunlight will affect its shade. It’s important to get an accurate colour match, and I’m very meticulous in doing so. When resurfacing your sink, I’ll apply a brilliant white coat to give it a brand-new appearance.
The materials I use are high-quality and not available in your typical DIY store. I’ve sourced the best quality bonder and enamel paint to ensure all my repairs last. I’ve relied on these materials for years, and they consistently create durable, top-quality repairs. Some companies use cheaper materials to save money, but this can result in repairs that don’t last and poor outcomes. I always provide a 12-month guarantee with my repairs, unless specifically 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. To ensure a flawless finish, I use a fine spray gun when applying the new surface, so the repair blends in perfectly.
The first step in any sink repair is assessing the damage to figure out the best solution. 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 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. 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 removing your sink and replacing it. 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’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 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. No reputable repair company will promise you an invisible repair, so be wary of any companies that do, because they probably won’t be in business for long.
By repairing your sink rather than replacing it, you'll save time, money, and reduce your environmental impact. Repairing your sink helps cut down on waste and prevents more trash from going to the landfill.
I’ve been asked by customers if DIY Repair Kits are a good option for repairing their sinks. The problem is the DIY Repair Kits only come with poor quality materials, so the repair won’t last. It is also very hard to get a true colour match with the basic tinter they supply. 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.
What’s the expected lifespan of a sink repair?
Each of my sink repairs is backed 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. The only time I can't offer a guarantee on a repair is if there is structural damage or extensive damage, and in this case, I'll make sure you know that I can't offer a guarantee before you go ahead with the repair. When this occurs, I usually suggest replacing the sink, but if you want to preserve your original sink, I can still help with the repair.
