GFRC SINK CARE & MAINTENANCE GUIDE
Your Glass Fibre Reinforced Concrete (GFRC) sink is a handcrafted architectural piece designed to last for decades when properly cared for. While concrete is an exceptionally durable material, it is also a natural, breathable surface that benefits from routine and mindful maintenance. The following guidelines will help preserve the beauty, performance, and finish of your sink.
⸻
Recommended cleaners:
• Mild dish soap
• Stone-safe or concrete-safe cleaners
⸻
❌ WHAT TO AVOID
Never use the following on your GFRC sink:
• Abrasive scouring pads or steel wool
• Bleach or ammonia
• Acidic cleaners (vinegar, lemon, CLR, Lime-Away)
• Harsh degreasers
• Powdered cleaners or gritty pastes
These products can dull the sealer, etch the surface, and reduce stain resistance over time.
⸻
💧 SEALING & STAIN RESISTANCE
All of our GFRC sinks are professionally sealed using a high-performance penetrating concrete sealer at the time of fabrication. This sealer provides strong protection against moisture and staining; however, concrete is naturally porous and benefits from periodic resealing.
Signs your sink may need resealing include:
• Water no longer beading on the surface
• Darkening when wet
• Increased sensitivity to staining
A concrete or stone sealer can be easily reapplied following the manufacturer’s instructions.
⸻
🍷 STAIN PREVENTION & SPILL CARE
While sealed, your sink is highly stain-resistant—but not stain-proof. Prompt cleanup is key.
Immediately wipe spills from:
• Wine, coffee, tea
• Oils and grease
• Dyes
• Citrus, vinegar, or acidic foods
For stubborn residues, use a mild soap and soft sponge—never abrasive tools.
⸻
🔥 HEAT & THERMAL SHOCK
Concrete is heat-resistant but not immune to thermal shock.
• Avoid sudden extreme hot-to-cold temperature changes.
Using a trivet or allowing hot water to mix with cooler water before contact is always recommended.
⸻
🛠 INSTALLATION & DRAIN CARE
Proper installation is essential to the longevity of your sink:
• Use non-acidic, stone-safe plumbing sealants
• Ensure the sink is fully supported according to its weight
• Avoid over-tightening drain hardware
Do not use harsh chemical drain cleaners. If needed, use enzyme-based or plumbing-safe mechanical methods.
⸻
✨ NATURAL VARIATION & PATINA
Concrete is a living material. Over time, you may notice:
• Subtle shifts in tone
• Gentle surface character
• A naturally developing patina
These are not defects but hallmarks of authentic, handcrafted concrete that add depth and uniqueness to your piece.
⸻
🧽 LONG-TERM MAINTENANCE SUMMARY
• Clean regularly with mild soap and water
• Wipe spills promptly
• Avoid harsh chemicals and abrasives
• Reseal every 5-10 years depending on use
• Protect from extreme heat and sudden temperature changes
With proper care, your GFRC sink will age beautifully and remain a standout architectural feature for many years.
