Common Problems That Require a Sink Repair
Clogged Drain
One of the most common things we see in sink repair is a clogged drain. From accumulated debris, to soap residue, to hair buildup, slow drainage and even complete blockage may occur if not addressed.
There are DIY solutions to handle clogged drain, however, major blockage may require a professional plumber to assess the problem.
Leaking Faucet
Another common problem we see are leaking faucets. Many times, a leaking faucet is the result of a worn-out or damaged washer or o-ring. These can cause water to leak from the faucet, which causes water waste and an overall increase in water bills.
For more information, please take a look at our article about everything you need to know about fixing plumbing leaks.
Low Water Pressure
Low water pressure can make it difficult to use the sink effectively.
If you’re noticing low water pressure in your home, it’s more than likely caused by a clogged aerator, a malfunctioning valve, or other issues with the plumbing system.
Damaged Sink
Over time, sinks can become cracked, chipped, or stained, making them unattractive and potentially unsafe to use. Damaged sinks may need repair or replacement to restore their function and appearance.
If you have a damaged sink, please contact our experts today and we’ll assess to see whether you need a sink repair or a full sink replacement.

Sink Repair FAQs
From repairing your bathroom sink in your business, or installing a kitchen sink in your home, here are some common questions that our team gets about sink repairs:
While porcelain sinks are durable and can last a long time, they are still susceptible to chips and cracks from daily wear and tear. For a porcelain sink repair, you can use an epoxy kit to fill in small cracks or chips. The epoxy dries hard and can be sanded and painted to match the color of your sink. However, for larger cracks or chips, it’s best to contact a professional to avoid causing even more damage.
If the crack in your sink is small, it may be able to repaired by a professional plumber. Your plumber will likely use an epoxy and apply it to the crack to create a strong and durable bond. However, it’s essential to note that epoxy repairs may not be a permanent solution and may need to be replaced after several years. If the crack is extensive, it’s likely that your sink may need a complete replacement.
Do you need an extensive repair or a full replacement? The cost of redoing a sink will depend on the extent of the work needed, the type of sink, and the materials used. For example, a simple repair, such as fixing a leaky faucet, may cost around $100-$200. However, if you need a complete sink replacement, the cost can be higher. It’s best to contact a professional plumber for an estimate of the cost of redoing your sink.
The lifespan of your sink will depend on several factors. These include the quality of the sink and how much you use it. In addition, proper maintenance, such as regular cleaning and avoiding harsh chemicals or abrasive materials, can extend the lifespan of your sink. In fact, a well-maintained sink can last up to 15-20 years.
