Sink repairs are very common due to the hard usage that sinks have to endure. Things like dropping glass bottles, pots, and pans can easily chip or crack your sink. 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. All repairs are completed on-site, and a standard sink repair takes just 1-2 hours. In just 24 hours, you can use your sink again, avoiding the hassle and cost of replacement. This is the most economical option for making your sink look new again without the expense of replacement. My sink repairs are guaranteed for 12 months and I’m fully insured. Your sink will be looking brand new again in no time!
For a flawless sink repair, it’s essential to match the new enamel paint to the existing sink colour. I carefully blend tinters into the white enamel paint by eye to achieve the exact shade of your sink. When the new paint isn’t a perfect match, the repair will be visible. Through years of experience, I’ve mastered this specialised skill in sink repairs. 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. 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. Since I’ve been using the same materials for years, I can trust that they create lasting, high-quality repairs every time. Some other companies cut corners by using cheaper materials, but this could lead to repairs failing and poor results. All repairs come with a 12-month guarantee, unless otherwise stated.
The first step when I do a sink repair is to apply a special bonder to the damaged area and then fill in the damage. 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.
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 greater and covers a larger area of the sink, it would be best to resurface the whole sink. For a large crack or hole, I can repair it, but I might suggest replacing the sink due to potential structural issues. In this case, if I do the repair, I wouldn’t be able to offer a guarantee on it. This is the worst-case scenario, though it’s rare.
Most sink repairs I perform take around 1-2 hours. This is much faster than removing your sink and replacing it. If you want to have your sink resurfaced, then this will take me a day to do, as I need to spend a lot of time masking off the rest of the room to protect it from overspray. Once again, resurfacing is far quicker and more cost-effective than removing and replacing your sink. Restoring antique sinks by resurfacing them is something I do regularly, bringing them back to their original beauty. Antique sinks typically feature intricate detailing that is not found on most modern sinks. If you need a sink restored or repaired, I’m here to help.
My repairs are always done to the highest standard, ensuring longevity and that they remain inconspicuous with regular use. While it’s possible to see something with a torch, it’s not common to use one when you’re using the sink as intended. 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. You won’t be adding more waste to your local landfill site when you choose to repair and restore your sink.
I’ve had some customers ask me about DIY Repair Kits and if they could just do their repairs themselves. DIY Repair Kits often include poor-quality materials that won’t provide a lasting repair. Another problem is that the basic tinter included makes it difficult to achieve a true colour match. If you want to try it yourself, that’s fine, but I’ll be here for a professional repair when you ask.
How long can I expect my sink repair to last?
My sink repairs are all guaranteed 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. In cases of structural or extensive damage, I can’t provide a guarantee, but I’ll make sure to let you know before proceeding. 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.
