Basin Installation & Warranty Conditions
BASIN INSTALLATION GUIDELINES
Each of our concrete basins are unique. We highly recommend you use a qualified plumber for installation. Ensure that you know which way you would like the basin to face before work is started.
It is really important to ensure that all surfaces including your basin are completely dry before installation.
Ensure the perimeter of where your basin meets the benchtop is sealed completely. There is no need to apply silicon under your basin, we recommend silicon around the perimeter ONLY to adhere to the benchtop.
Do not over-tighten wastes and ensure they are fully sealed. Over tightened wastes may result in your basin cracking from the waste out.
Dark patches that develop after using the basin, radiating out from the waste are a sign of poor silicon application, resulting in water getting under your basin and rising through the unsealed base surface. This must be rectified by removing basin, allowing it to dry completely and reapplying silicon seal.

We do not offer refunds for change of mind on colour or style. The basins shown on our website are representative only due to colours displaying differently on different screens and phones. It is recommended that a sample tile is ordered before placing your order to ensure the colour is suitable for the space.
Please note, refunds are not normally offered on bespoke/custom benchtops or tables due to their custom nature designed specifically for the space; except in the rare case of extreme faulty workmanship whereas we will attempt to repair and rectify or replace.
