Common questions in Veryan
Are there extra charges for Veryan?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Normally, if it isn’t leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.
Do you cover the entire of Cornwall?
All of Cornwall, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Sink repair in Veryan, done in place
From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. We work on antique & period basins, vanity unit basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and people most often call us about cracks around the tap holes or waste and a chipped basin edge.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

When we’d advise against a repair
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Plumbing leaks
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins

How to look after the repair
To keep it looking its best:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it does not get chipped again.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Early repair keeps it a small job.
