Sink repair in Carfin, done in place
It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. We work on Belfast and butler sinks, antique & period basins and vanity unit basins, and common reasons people get in touch are fine cracks across the glaze and chips on a built-in basin.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Repair or replace: which is better?

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Carfin. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
FAQs for Carfin
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across North Lanarkshire.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
Not at all. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Honest limits
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- Plumbing leaks
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Get chips repaired early
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
What we do, step by step
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a couple of hours for most chips. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- You can typically use the basin later that day or the next.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
