Due to regular use, sinks often require repairs, especially after damage. Glass bottles, pots, and pans are common culprits of chips and cracks on sink surfaces. Using abrasive cleaners or soaps can dull your sink’s surface, making it more prone to dirt build-up. 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. Once the repair is completed, your sink will be ready to use again in 24 hours, saving you time and money. This is the most economical option for making your sink look new again without the expense of replacement. My repairs come with a 12-month warranty, and I’m fully insured. Your sink will look brand new 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. I carefully blend tinters into the white enamel paint by eye to achieve the exact shade of your sink. If the new paint doesn't match your sink perfectly, you will notice 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. The shade of white your sink has depends on the manufacturer, its age, usage, and factors like sun damage or chemical discoloration. I pay close attention to get the perfect colour match whenever I perform 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 always use professional-grade materials that aren't available at your local DIY store. I’ve sourced the best quality bonder and enamel paint to ensure all my repairs last. Having used the same materials for many years, I know they work and create lasting high-quality repairs every time. Some companies use cheaper materials to save money, but this can result in repairs that don’t last and poor outcomes. Every repair I do comes with a 12-month guarantee, unless 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. 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 there’s a large crack or hole in the sink, I can still repair it, but I may recommend replacing the sink instead, as it could be causing structural issues. If I repair it in this situation, I can’t offer a guarantee. However, this is a worst-case situation.
Typically, my sink repairs take only 1-2 hours to complete. This is much faster than removing your sink and replacing it. Resurfacing a sink takes a day because I need to carefully mask off the room to avoid overspray. Again, this is still so much faster and cheaper than ripping out and replacing your sink. Restoring antique sinks by resurfacing them is something I do regularly, bringing them back to their original beauty. Old antique sinks have beautiful details and features that are hard to find in modern models. If you have a sink that needs attention, I’m here to provide help.
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 were to shine a torch over the surface, you might notice something, but this isn't something you'd typically do while using your sink. Any reputable repair company will not guarantee an invisible repair, so be cautious of those who do as they likely won’t last long.
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.
Some people wonder if they can use DIY Repair Kits to fix their sinks on their own. 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. If you want to try it yourself, that’s fine, but I’ll be here for a professional repair when you ask.
How long will a sink repair last?
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. If there’s structural or extensive damage, I can’t offer a guarantee, but I will inform you of this before proceeding with the repair. Typically, I recommend replacing the sink in such cases, but if you’d like to keep the original sink, we can still repair it.
