Due to regular use, sinks often require repairs, especially after damage. Accidents like dropping glass bottles, pots, and pans can lead to chips and cracks on your sink. Things like using harsh cleaners and soaps will slowly erode the shiny surface of your sink, making dirt stick to it and compromising its top layer. I specialize in repairing sinks and can resurface the entire sink for a complete restoration. I perform all repairs at your location, and most sink repairs are completed within 1-2 hours. Your sink will be ready to use again in just 24 hours, saving both time and money compared to a full replacement. This is the most cost-effective way to make your sink look brand new without the need for replacement. I guarantee all my sink repairs for 12 months, and I’m fully insured for your peace of mind. Your sink will be looking brand new again in no time!
A crucial part of a successful sink repair is matching the new enamel paint to the exact colour of your existing sink. This process requires mixing tinters into white enamel paint by eye until an exact match to your sink’s colour is achieved. 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. Although sinks are often white, the specific shade of white can vary considerably. Your sink’s exact shade of white depends on the manufacturer and factors like age, usage, and chemical or sunlight exposure. Ensuring an accurate colour match is essential, and I take great care when performing sink repairs. If you decide to resurface your entire sink, I will apply a brilliant white finish to restore its original look.
All my repairs are done with professional-grade materials that are not available at standard DIY stores. The bonder and enamel paint I use are the best quality, ensuring that all repairs are durable and long-lasting. I’ve relied on these materials for years, and they consistently create durable, top-quality repairs. 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 initial step in my sink repair process is to apply a unique bonder to the damaged area and then fill the damage. After colour matching the new paint to your sink, I apply an additional 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.
Whenever I find damage on a sink, I evaluate the extent of it to figure out the most effective 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. When the damage is widespread, resurfacing the sink is typically the best choice. If there’s a major crack or hole, I can still fix it, though I may recommend replacing the sink if it’s causing structural problems. If I proceed with the repair in this situation, I cannot provide a guarantee. However, this is a worst-case situation.
The majority of my sink repairs will only take about 1-2 hours. Replacing your sink would take much longer than this repair. Resurfacing a sink takes a day because I need to carefully mask off the room to avoid overspray. This process is still much quicker and cheaper compared to ripping out and replacing your sink. I’ve successfully restored many antique sinks, resurfacing them to look like new. These old antique sinks usually have beautiful detailing and features that you just don’t get on modern sinks. If you have a sink that needs attention, I’m here to provide help.
Every repair I do is completed to a high standard, ensuring it lasts and blends in 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. 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. 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 problem with DIY Repair Kits is that the materials are of poor quality, leading to a repair that won't last. The basic tinter in DIY kits makes it challenging to get an accurate colour match. 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?
All of my sink repairs come with a 12-month guarantee. 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. 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.
