Sink repairs are very common due to the hard usage that sinks have to endure. Glass bottles, pots, and pans are common culprits of chips and cracks on sink surfaces. The use of strong cleaners and soaps can damage your sink’s finish, causing dirt to adhere and wear down its surface. With years of experience repairing sinks, I also offer full sink restorations through resurfacing. I handle all repairs in your home, and a regular sink repair will take just 1-2 hours. In just 24 hours, you can use your sink again, avoiding the hassle and cost of replacement. Repairing and resurfacing your sink is the most economical way to restore it to like-new condition without replacing it. I guarantee all my sink repairs for 12 months, and I’m fully insured for your peace of mind. Your sink will be as good as new in no time!
The most important part of a sink repair is accurately colour matching the new enamel paint to the shade of your 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. The repair will be obvious if the new paint doesn’t match your sink perfectly. I’ve refined this specialised skill over many years of experience. Most sinks are white, but there is actually a significant variation in their exact shade of white. Your sink’s exact shade of white depends on the manufacturer and factors like age, usage, and chemical or sunlight exposure. I pay close attention to get the perfect colour match whenever I perform repairs. If you decide to resurface your entire sink, I will apply a brilliant white finish to restore its original look.
I only use top-quality materials that you won't find in your local DIY store. I use only the highest quality bonder and enamel paint to ensure all repairs stand the test of time. Having used the same materials for many years, I know they work and create lasting high-quality repairs every time. By using low-cost materials, some companies risk failed repairs and poor results. I stand by my work with a 12-month guarantee on all repairs, unless specified otherwise.
The repair process starts with applying a special bonder to the damaged area and 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 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. 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 repair it in this situation, I can’t offer a guarantee. But this is the worst-case scenario.
Most of my sink repairs can be completed in just 1-2 hours. 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. This is still a much quicker and more affordable option than completely replacing your sink. I’ve successfully restored many antique sinks, resurfacing them to look like new. Old antique sinks have beautiful details and features that are hard to find in modern models. If you need a sink restored or repaired, I’m here to help.
Every repair I do is completed to a high standard, ensuring it lasts and blends in 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. Be cautious of any repair companies that promise an invisible repair, as no reputable business would make such a guarantee.
Choosing to repair your sink instead of replacing it will save both money and time, and it’s a more environmentally friendly option. When you repair and restore your sink, you’ll avoid contributing more waste to your local landfill.
I’ve been asked by customers if DIY Repair Kits are a good option for repairing their sinks. The problem with DIY Repair Kits is that the materials are of poor quality, leading to a repair that 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?
I guarantee all my sink repairs for 12 months. 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. I can’t offer a guarantee if there’s structural or extensive damage, and I’ll let you know before starting the repair. I often recommend replacing the sink when this happens, but if you wish to keep your original sink, we can still repair it.
