Sink repairs are very common due to the hard usage that sinks have to endure. Sinks often get chips and cracks from dropped items like glass bottles, pots, or pans. Harsh cleaning products gradually dull the surface of your sink, making it harder to maintain and clean. I specialize in repairing sinks and can resurface the entire sink for a complete restoration. All of my work is done in-situ, and a normal sink repair will only take about 1-2 hours! Your sink will be ready to use within 24 hours after repair, saving you time and avoiding replacement costs. 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!
A crucial part of a successful sink repair is matching the new enamel paint to the exact colour of your existing sink. 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. Even though most sinks are white, there is a huge variation in what shade of white your sink may be. 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. When resurfacing your sink, I’ll apply a brilliant white coat to give it a brand-new appearance.
All my repairs are done with professional-grade materials that are not available at standard DIY stores. For lasting repairs, I always use premium bonder and enamel paint. Since I’ve been using the same materials for years, I can trust that they 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.
The initial step in my sink repair process is to apply a unique bonder to the damaged area and then fill the damage. I then colour match the new paint to your sink and apply another layer of bonder before spraying on the new enamel. Using a fine spray gun to apply the new surface ensures the repair will blend in as seamlessly as possible.
Whenever I find damage on a sink, I evaluate the extent of it to figure out the most effective repair method. In cases of minor chips or scratches, I can perform a quick chip repair that usually takes around 1-2 hours. When the damage is widespread, resurfacing the sink is typically the best choice. 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, any repair I do will not come with a guarantee. This situation is the worst-case scenario.
Typically, my sink repairs take only 1-2 hours to complete. This is much faster than the hassle of removing and replacing 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. Again, this is still so much faster and cheaper than 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 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. You might be able to spot something with a torch, but that’s not something you’d typically do when using your sink normally. Any reputable repair company will not guarantee an invisible repair, so be cautious of those who do as they likely won’t last long.
Opting to repair your sink instead of replacing it saves time, money, and helps the environment. Repairing your sink means you won’t be adding unnecessary waste 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. 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?
I guarantee all my sink repairs for 12 months. Repairs should last as long as the sink itself, and in the unlikely case that one fails, it will occur 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. 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.
