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 cleaners and soaps can erode the shiny surface of your sink, making it harder to clean and causing dirt to stick. I’ve been repairing sinks for years and can provide full resurfacing for your sink when necessary. All of my work is done in-situ, and a normal sink repair will only take about 1-2 hours! Once the repair is completed, your sink will be ready to use again in 24 hours, saving you time and money. Repairing and resurfacing your sink is the most economical way to restore it to like-new condition without replacing it. My sink repairs are guaranteed for 12 months 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. The colour matching is done by eye, mixing various tinters into the standard white enamel paint until it perfectly matches your sink. When the new paint isn’t a perfect match, the repair will be visible. This highly specialised skill has been developed over years of hands-on work. Although sinks are often white, the specific shade of white can vary considerably. Different brands use different shades of white, and factors like age, usage, and exposure to chemicals or sunlight can all change the 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.
I only use top-quality materials that you won't find in your local DIY store. To guarantee long-lasting repairs, I’ve sourced the best quality bonder and enamel paint. 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. All repairs come with a 12-month guarantee, unless otherwise stated.
The repair process starts with applying a special bonder to the damaged area and 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. The use of a fine spray gun helps the new surface blend into the existing sink, creating a seamless repair.
When I come across sink damage, I first assess how severe it is so I can decide on the best repair method. 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. In cases of more significant damage that spans a larger area, it’s best to resurface the entire 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. In this case, any repair I do will not come with a guarantee. But rest assured, this is an unlikely worst-case scenario.
The majority of my sink repairs will only take about 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. My work includes resurfacing antique sinks to restore their beauty and make them look like new. 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.
My repairs are always done to the highest standard, ensuring longevity and that they remain inconspicuous with regular 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. Any reputable repair company will not guarantee an invisible repair, so be cautious of those who do as they likely won’t last long.
Having your sink repaired instead of replacing it will save you money, time, and is environmentally friendly. By choosing to repair your sink, you’re helping reduce waste at your local landfill site.
Some customers have asked about DIY Repair Kits and whether they can handle their repairs themselves. DIY Repair Kits often include poor-quality materials that won’t provide a lasting repair. The basic tinter in DIY kits makes it challenging to get an accurate colour match. If you’re confident, you can certainly give it a try, but I’ll be here to do a professional repair whenever you need one.
How durable is a sink repair?
I guarantee all my sink repairs for 12 months. Sink repairs should last for as long as the rest of the sink itself, and in the unlikely event that one of our repairs fails, it will do so 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.
