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. The use of strong cleaners and soaps can damage your sink’s finish, causing dirt to adhere and wear down its surface. I specialize in repairing sinks and can resurface the entire sink for a complete restoration. I handle all repairs in your home, and a regular sink repair will take just 1-2 hours. Once the repair is completed, your sink will be ready to use again in 24 hours, saving you time and money. 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 look brand new in no time!
For a flawless sink repair, it’s essential to match the new enamel paint to the existing sink colour. 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. A mismatch in the paint will make the repair noticeable. Through years of experience, I’ve mastered this specialised skill in sink repairs. Most sinks are white, but there is actually a significant variation in their exact shade of white. Different brands use different shades of white, and factors like age, usage, and exposure to chemicals or sunlight can all change the shade. Getting the exact colour match is crucial, so I’m very careful when doing repairs. If you choose to have your whole sink resurfaced, I will spray it with a new brilliant white so it looks brand new again.
All my repairs are done with professional-grade materials that are not available at standard DIY stores. 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. Every repair I do comes with a 12-month guarantee, unless stated otherwise.
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 colour match the paint to your sink, then apply a second layer of bonder before spraying the enamel. I use a fine spray gun to apply the new surface, which ensures the repair blends seamlessly.
Whenever I encounter damage on a sink, I have to make sure I know how bad the damage is so I can determine the best way to fix it. For minor chips or scratches, I can complete a quick chip repair in just 1-2 hours. In cases of more significant damage that spans a larger area, it’s best to resurface the entire 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. In this case, any repair I do will not come with a guarantee. However, this is a worst-case situation.
Most of my sink repairs can be completed in just 1-2 hours. This is much faster than the hassle of removing and replacing your sink. Resurfacing a sink takes a day because I need to carefully mask off the room to avoid overspray. Again, this is still so much faster and cheaper than ripping out and replacing your sink. My work includes resurfacing antique sinks to restore their beauty and make them look like new. These old antique sinks usually have beautiful detailing and features that you just don’t get on modern sinks. 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. 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. Reputable repair companies don’t promise invisible repairs, so be wary of companies that do as they likely won’t be in business for long.
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.
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. It is also very hard to get a true colour match with the basic tinter they supply. 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.
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. If the sink has structural or significant damage, I can’t guarantee the repair, but I’ll inform you before we proceed. Typically, I recommend replacing the sink in such cases, but if you’d like to keep the original sink, we can still repair it.
