CERAMIC SINK REPAIRS SELDOM NEEDED

A Ceramic Sink Repair Kit

Shaws of Darwen is a fine old company that has manufactured fireclay

ceramic sinks in Lancashire England for more than one hundred years.

The original workforce has transferred their knowledge and dedication to each new generation of artisans. Today's skilled craftsmen have the abilities and work ethics instilled in them by previous generations.

Everyone at Shaws takes pride in continuing the reputation for excellence we have earned over the past century. The ceramic fireclay sinks are sold all

over the world along with our many other fine products.

It is notable that many of our models, the Belfast and London sinks for example are made and sold in the traditional way they were made and sold back in 1897. Each new sink is individualized and signed by the artisan who makes it. Not only is each sink stamped with his name but a certificate of authenticity is filled out and included when the sink is packed

for shipping. You will also see Shaws Logo and "Made In England" stamped

on each finished sink. These practices attest to the superior quality of

each individual fireclay ceramic sink.

Following this regimen of care and maintenance will keep your ceramic sink repairs non-existent. Keep your sink clean using a soft cloth or sponge with

a mild abrasive. Harsh abrasives while they will not cause a need for ceramic sink repairs, are not required. To avoid temporary water spotting wipe down the sink bottom after use. The water spotting is never something that will necessitate ceramic sink repairs. You may want to use wax to encourage draining. The ceramic sinks from Shaws of Darwen are chip, scratch and stain resistant. However, no sink is completely impervious to damage from a heavy pot being dropped on it for instance. If a rare accident should happen don't panic. We have a ceramic sink repair kit for such a rare occurrence.

This ceramic sink repair kit, made and distributed by Shaws exclusively, uses a chip filler paste and a touch up glaze over that to closely match the white or biscuit color finish of your fireclay sink. It is unlikely you will ever need it,

but if you do the ceramic sink repair kit will render the chip nearly invisible.
All of Shaws handcrafted sinks are now available in biscuit or white.

The time honored methods continue to be used in production. We have grown to include a line of contemporary fireclay sinks in addition to our classic models made since 1897. We now have a line of faucets (taps) in four attractive finishes. (English Gold, Antique Bronze, Chrome and Brushed Nickel). Our kilns have been modernized and new ones added. Yes, modern technology has affected Shaws in many ways but you can be assured that one thing will never change, the tradition of hand crafting each individual sink and stamping it proudly with the name of the artisan, Shaws Logo and "Made In England" will remain the same. We will always provide superior quality products and excellent customer service here at Shaws of Darwen...
