It’s common for sinks to need repairs due to the daily wear and tear they experience. Sinks often get chips and cracks from dropped items like glass bottles, pots, or pans. Harsh cleaning products gradually dull the surface of your sink, making it harder to maintain and clean. With years of experience repairing sinks, I also offer full sink restorations through resurfacing. 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 cost-effective way to make your sink look brand new without the need for replacement. I offer a 12-month guarantee on all my sink repairs, and I’m fully insured. Your sink will be as good as new in no time!
One of the most important parts of a great sink repair is to accurately colour match the new enamel paint to your existing sink. This process must be done by eye on the day of your repair, mixing various tinters into the standard white enamel paint until I get an exact match to your sink. The repair will be obvious if the new paint doesn’t match your sink perfectly. 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. I pay close attention to get the perfect colour match whenever I perform repairs. Should you decide to resurface your sink, I will apply a fresh, brilliant white coating to restore it to like-new condition.
I always use professional-grade materials that aren't available at your local DIY store. To guarantee long-lasting repairs, I’ve sourced the best quality bonder and enamel paint. With years of experience using these materials, I know they provide consistent, durable, and high-quality repairs. Unlike other companies that use cheaper materials, I only use top-quality products to ensure repairs won’t fail. All repairs come with a 12-month guarantee, unless otherwise stated.
I begin a sink repair by applying a special bonder to the affected area and filling in the damage. Once I’ve matched the paint, I apply a second layer of bonder and then spray on the 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 there are just a few chips or scratches, then I can do a simple chip repair that only takes about 1-2 hours. For larger damage that covers a bigger area, resurfacing the entire sink is usually the best option. 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.
The average sink repair takes only 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. 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. Antique sinks often have intricate detailing and unique features that modern sinks lack. If you have a sink that needs saving, I can help you.
I perform all my repairs to a very high standard, focusing on durability and making sure the repair isn’t noticeable during normal usage. 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.
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 helps cut down on waste and prevents more trash from going to the landfill.
Some people wonder if they can use DIY Repair Kits to fix their sinks on their own. The issue with DIY Repair Kits is that they include low-quality materials, which means the repair won’t last. It’s hard to achieve a true colour match with the basic tinter that’s supplied in these kits. If you want to try it yourself, that’s fine, but I’ll be here for a professional repair when you ask.
What’s the expected lifespan of a sink repair?
My sink repairs are all guaranteed for 12 months. Your sink repair should last just as long as the sink itself, and any failure would occur 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. Typically, I recommend replacing the sink in such cases, but if you’d like to keep the original sink, we can still repair it.
