Where does the Teak come from?

• Our teak originates from Burma (Myanmar). The Teak FAQ describes this.
• We buy the finest and most durable timber. It’s oily, denser and slow grown.
• We are committed to supplying furniture and joinery with minimum possible disruption to the environment. The Environmental Statement explains the matter fully.

Are the sinks, basins & baths easy to maintain?

All our bathroom products are made of Teak and polished with Timbertect plus. This is a resin which sinks into the timber and fuses with it, forming an exceptionally tough layer which will not absorb stains and which is straightforward to clean with standard non abrasive bathroom and kitchen cleaners such as Mr Muscle.

Note that this polish is nothing like a standard varnish which sits on the surface of the timber in a glass hard layer, vulnerable to cracking, peeling & discolouration. The appearance of teak polished with Timbertect plus is that of oiled timber - a light eggshell gloss with nothing sitting on the surface of the timber, but infinitely more robust.

We have tested this finish with everything that the modern bathroom and kitchen can throw at it. Its toughness and resilience is astonishing. And, a note for people living in areas with hard water, we have been told that lime scale cleans more easily off teak polished in this way than it does off ceramic.

We feel we have succeeded in combining the natural durability and stability of teak with the ease of maintenance of a modern material.

Will a bath, basin or sink leak?

• They are designed with a unique construction of interlocking joints, which keeps them water tight.

Do they stain?

• Because the timber is impregnated with Timbertect, it will not absorb stains. But like any timber, it will darken with the passage of time.

How long will they last?

• All our products are guaranteed for two years. We intend that everything we make should be capable giving a lifetime of service. Our first sink was made in 1978 and is still going strong.

How do I clean my Teak product?

• It is a robust product, just treat it like a timber work top.
• Clean as a normal bath or basin with a mild detergent.
• Do not use bleach as it may lighten the timber.

Do teak products require regular oiling?

• They will look better for the occasional oiling, but it is not necessary to keep them working properly. We recommend the use of OSMO teak oil which is made entirely from vegetable matter.
