Due to regular use, sinks often require repairs, especially after damage. 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. I’ve been repairing sinks for years and can provide full resurfacing for your sink when necessary. I handle all repairs in your home, and a regular sink repair will take just 1-2 hours. Your sink will be ready to use within 24 hours after repair, saving you time and avoiding replacement costs. Repairing and resurfacing your sink is the most economical way to restore it to like-new condition without replacing it. I offer a 12-month guarantee on all my sink repairs, and I’m fully insured. It won’t take long before your sink looks brand new again!
For a flawless sink repair, it’s essential to match the new enamel paint to the existing sink colour. This process requires mixing tinters into white enamel paint by eye until an exact match to your sink’s colour is achieved. When the new paint isn’t a perfect match, the repair will be visible. I’ve perfected this skill after years of repairing sinks and colour matching. Even though white is the most common sink colour, the shade of white can vary widely. Different manufacturers use different shades, and factors like the age of the sink, how much usage it’s had, and if it has been discoloured by chemicals or sunlight can all affect the final colour. Ensuring an accurate colour match is essential, and I take great care when performing sink repairs. If you opt for a full sink resurfacing, I’ll spray it with a brilliant white finish to make it look as good as new.
I always use professional-grade materials that aren't available at your local DIY store. The bonder and enamel paint I use are the best quality, ensuring that all repairs are durable and long-lasting. Since I’ve been using the same materials for years, I can trust that they create lasting, high-quality repairs every time. By using low-cost materials, some companies risk failed repairs and poor results. I offer a 12-month guarantee on all my repairs, unless otherwise noted.
When repairing a sink, the first thing I do is apply a special bonder to the damaged area before filling it in. Once I’ve matched the paint, I apply a second layer of bonder and then spray on the enamel. The use of a fine spray gun helps the new surface blend into the existing sink, creating a seamless repair.
Whenever I find damage on a sink, I evaluate the extent of it to figure out the most effective repair method. When dealing with a few chips or scratches, I can fix them quickly with a chip repair that takes about 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. If I repair it in this situation, I can’t offer a guarantee. But rest assured, this is an unlikely worst-case scenario.
The average sink repair takes only 1-2 hours. Replacing your sink would take much longer than this repair. 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. This process is still much quicker and cheaper compared to ripping out and replacing your sink. I have experience restoring antique sinks and resurfacing them to make them look brand new. The detailing and features on antique sinks are often more beautiful than what you find on modern sinks. If you have a sink that needs saving, I can help you.
I ensure all my repairs are completed to the highest standard, focusing on durability and making sure they aren’t visible with normal use. You might be able to spot something with a torch, but that’s not something you’d typically do when using your sink normally. No reputable repair company will promise you an invisible repair, so be wary of any companies that do, because they probably won’t be in business for long.
Opting to repair your sink instead of replacing it saves time, money, and helps the environment. Repairing your sink helps cut down on waste and prevents more trash from going to the landfill.
Some customers have asked about DIY Repair Kits and whether they can handle their repairs themselves. The problem with DIY Repair Kits is that the materials are of poor quality, leading to a repair that won't last. Another problem is that the basic tinter included makes it difficult to achieve a true 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 long can I expect my sink repair to last?
My sink repairs are all guaranteed 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. The only time I can't offer a guarantee on a repair is if there is structural damage or extensive damage, and in this case, I'll make sure you know that I can't offer a guarantee before you go ahead with the repair. Typically, I recommend replacing the sink in such cases, but if you’d like to keep the original sink, we can still repair it.
