Thank you for taking the time to write a Trustpilot review of Shaws. We're sorry that your Belfast sink has been damaged, and especially that you've not had the help you expected from us. Our Customer Services team have been in communication with you, but to progress the matter further we do need a proof of purchase. Obviously that can be a rather frustrating stipulation, but some of our sinks are essentially unchanged in design for over 100 years and our Lifetime Warranty is a relatively recent introduction. Hopefully you can locate your receipt, or identify the retailer or showroom your purchased it from, and we'll be very happy to take things further.
Great service and nice sink
Beautiful sink and nice goodie bag of items to go with it.

Dear Mrs S,
Thank you so much for taking the time to write a Trustpilot review. We're delighted that you're pleased with your new Shaws sink. The goodie bag is with our compliments. According to previous customers, the mini sink can be a useful soap dish, business card holder or bowl for mint humbugs! Please feel free to contact our Customer Services at Darwen if we can be of any assistance in the future.
Fantastic sinks!

Follow up from August 2020--They would not give anything on my poor quality sink because I could not find my receipt--As they know, there is only one Shaws sink and they know what I paid 8 years ago in the US from Rohls---The crazing and staining continues unabated---Again I suggest staying away from this sink due to quality control issues especially since there are many other farmhouse style sinks out there---I would have thought that with the photos I sent they would refund SOME amount---Good Luck to those who choose Darwen---

Dear Paul,
Thank you for updating your Trustpilot review. Like all manufacturers, we do have rules around warranty claims, and you have been very unfortunate that your retailer has ceased trading, making it hard to prove the age of the sink. Since a year old Shaws sinks may look very similar to a twenty year old Shaws sink, we do normally require some proof of age.
No ceramic manufacturer has yet developed a technique that removes all possibility of crazing, or predicting whether an individual sink may develop crazing in the future. We would reiterate that crazing does not affect the sink's performance, and some customers feel that it is part of the character of the sink. Clearly many people, like you, do not, which is why it is covered under our warranty scheme.
Once again, thank you for taking the time to write - we genuinely value constructive criticism as much as praise - and sorry that we can't assist you further in this case.
Our shaws butlers sink has chipped…
Our shaws butlers sink has chipped easily. Shaws recommended a sink replacement kit which we purchased and followed the instructions to patch up the chips. The paint product didn’t last long. Now I have noticed cracks or crazing radiating from the drain on the same side as all the cracks. Our much cheaper ceramic sink in the laundry has more heavy work done in it and looks brand new. These products are 2.5 yrs old. The cracks appeared early on. I would not recommend this product.

Dear Mel,
Thank you for taking the time to write a Shaws review on Trustpilot. We read and take note of every one, positive and negative. We're sorry to hear that the repair work failed. And it sounds like your sink has now developed crazing. A very frustrating experience, clearly.
No one has yet developed a method for entirely ruling out the possibility of crazing in a sink, and although it is cosmetic and doesn't affect the performance of the sink you can make a claim on the Shaws warranty. If you're in the UK, please call our Customer Services team to discuss (01254 775111), otherwise go back to your retailer in the first instance.
Very efficient and helpful customer service

Just a brief note just to acknowledge your review, and to say thank you for taking the time to write. We're delighted that your problem has been solved, and that you continue to enjoy your Shaws sink. Your kind words about the brand and our customer service team are much appreciated.
Excellent customer service
Just wanted to say a huge thank you to your customer service department in supplying me with a new sink waste basket strainer for a Belfast sink.
Having just installed a new Belfast sink for my daughter together with the new 1.5" chrome waste and basket strainer, unfortunately a glass fell into the sink and cracked the ceramic logo on the strainer. Very impressed with the customer service department and the company goodwill attitude.
Over the years i have installed many Belfast sinks and Shaws are always my go to Brand.

Dear Andrew,
Many thanks for taking the time to write. Every review really does make a difference to a business like ours, and of course we especially appreciate your kind words. We're pleased to have been able to help on this occasion, and hope your daughter enjoys her new Belfast sink. Thank you for continuing to support Shaws of Darwen.
Excellent Customer service from Shaw's of Darwen …
We are the proud owners of a Shaw's Butlers sink, which we have had for some 14 years. Recently we needed some replacement fittings. Although Shaw's like so many companies , have had some challenges due to the Covid situation, they responded very positively. We were given sound advice , wonderful service and a prompt delivery. The two ladies who provided everything that was required were Christina Dickinson and Ester Eccles. We would recommend this long established company to one and all,. Mike & Denise Gee Wormshill Kent.

Dear Mike and Denise,
Many thanks for taking the time to write such a detailed review. For a business our size, these really make a difference. We very much appreciate the kind words and I will pass your comments directly to Christina and Esther. It's always good to hear from owners who have had their Shaws sink for so many years, and of course we remain here for advice and assistance, however long you keep your sink. As you say, it has certainly been a demanding 12 months for Shaws, as it has for so many businesses and individuals, but we have every expectation of being around for at least another 120 years!
horrible service
horrible service. I ordered the products from them for over 1 months already and they never updated me the status of my order. Whenever I emailed them to check, they always feel annoying to answer me. Even now, I'm still waiting my products from them. I will never use them again.

Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback on Shaws. We always want to hear from our customers whether the experience is positive or negative, and I promise you we read and take notice of each one. I have had a look at your order, placed on 24th November. We do owe you an apology for our communication, which hasn't been as clear and frequent as it should have been. We have a small team in Darwen, and we have been depleted in recent weeks due to Covid issues. However we should still have kept you better informed, and we certainly don't get annoyed by any customer queries! Like many manufacturers in Britain at the moment, we are doing our best to keep production running and fulfil orders during a very challenging time. Do please bear with us - we will get your sinks to you as quickly as we possibly can.
UPDATE 14th January 2021
Your sink is now ready - we have sent an email to confirm - and we're just awaiting a courier collection. We will confirm the delivery date by email as soon as we're advised by the courier. We hope that you're delighted with the sink, and it repays your patience with many, many years of use. Thank you again for bearing with us.
Wow...absolute 1st class customer service
I am not really sure what to say apart from.....wow!
They say that the smallest gestures go the furthest to showing you the good in people and in this instance it really is true. This has been amplified during these dark time of Covid and the impact it is having on everyone’s lives.
I contacted Shaws of Darwen over the weekend to see what availability was on a spare part for my sink. They have responded by supplying me with the required part as gesture of goodwill and even paid for the postage.
This is customer service of the very highest order and ensures they have now got a customer for life from myself.
It really is true when they say the little things in life are what counts.
Thank you.

Fabulous sink
Fabulous sink and waste. The French installer commented on the quality of the sink and the weight which is substantial. Much nicer than the old IKEA sink. A little touch of home in France!

Antwoord van Shaws of Darwen
Thank you for your kind comments. We're delighted that you're pleased with the sink and waste. Some of the styles of farmhouse sink originate from France, I believe, so maybe you have the best of both worlds. I also understand that it's not easy to extract compliments from French plumbers and installers, so we're very happy to receive that! Thanks once again for taking the time to write. Do not hesitate to contact our Customer Service team in Darwen in you need any advice or assistance, at any point in the future.
Good service and beautiful quality product
The strainer plug arrived quickly and well packed - the plumber said it was very good quality and therefore easy to fit and I love the look of it plus it functions really well

Good quality product and excellent service. Pity they don't make a round sink protector though - I would have thought that was obvious.

Dear Christopher,
Just a quick note to say thank you for taking the time to provide feedback. It's very much appreciated. You make a good point about sink protectors. Historically we sold relatively few round sinks, but they have become much more popular in recent years. It's something we'll look at. It's good to hear that you're happy with your new sink and the service you received from Shaws - remember that you can contact our Customer Services team at any point in the future if you need any assistance or advice. Happy New Year!

DHL courier still hasn't delivered despite tracking saying will be Dec 12th. Contacted Shaw customer service and follow up has been underwhelming.

Thank you for taking the time to write a review on Trustpilot. Having looked into your case, I see that there has been a delay with the courier. Generally, despite the pandemic, our international deliveries have been relatively unaffected, but unfortunately you have suffered a significant delay.
Our Customer Services team have worked hard to investigate this with DHL, but we can only pass on information we are given by them. DHL's tracking service suggests that the package is now in Hong Kong, so hopefully it will reach you in the next few days.
Please accept our apologies for the longer than expected wait. Looking at your order, it seems that our website failed to add international carriage to the cost. Given your experience, we are happy to waive that charge.
We hope you enjoy your new sink.
