Our unique design and hassle-free setup, distinguish our farmhouse sinks from others on the market. They are crafted to expertly conceal any cuts or imperfections in the cabinet, giving your kitchen a flawless, stylish look. The straightforward, user-friendly installation process makes setting up our sinks remarkably simple.
Instead of using countertop clips for support like traditional sinks, our sinks anchor directly to the cabinet sides, providing a sturdy base. This new installation approach allows for the inclusion of larger sinks into your cabinetry, expanding your design possibilities. Many of our sinks, do not require front and rear supports up to 60". Support only the right and left flanges. Please inquire.
Countertops should be templated, using the installed sink as the template, after the sink is installed.
Our custom stainless steel sinks are built to stand the test of time and can quickly look as good as new. Got some daily wear or a random scratch or scuff mark? No worries! Our straightforward guide will show you how to get your sink looking new again in no time. Watch this video to see our advice on how to easily keep your Rachiele stainless steel sink looking new for decades.
Our hand finishing technique eliminates the need for bulky, bacteria-prone bottom grids.
Join our kitchen design expert, Dino Rachiele, as he dives into the often-overlooked but crucial aspects of measuring for a new kitchen sink. This video is especially important if you are considering an 18" wide undermount sink. This is your go-to guide for ensuring your sink fits perfectly.
Templating will occur after the sink is installed. Join Dino as he explains the importance of cutting the countertop flush with the bowl to ensure the proper fit of accessories and to avoid standing water at the grout line.
"Dino,
I don’t think I could possibly be happier with the sink you made for me. It is now the focal point of our kitchen. Thank you for the awesome, prompt service. You are right when you say you are purveyor of time, it is such a pleasure and the process is so much easier in this sink. I now enjoy doing the dishes! The instructions were clear and made the installation easy. I managed it all by myself since my contractor got Covid and wasn’t able to return.
Thanks again, I’ll recommend you to everyone."
- Joe and Rachel
Please make sure your countertop fabricators cut the countertops flush with the bowl.
No overhang, no reveal. This is critically important to ensure your accessories will fit properly in your sink.
Our copper sinks feature a unique, self-healing patina that evolves over time, offering a range of beautiful hues and patterns. They are incredibly low maintenance - just rinse after use, no drying is needed. Grease and dirt can be cleaned off with regular dish soap. Many new owners are surprised at how easy it is to care for our sinks, as there's little you can do to permanently damage the interior. However, leaving metal pans in the sink can result in temporary dark marks due to metal reactions, but these fade away naturally within a few days. To speed up this process, you can gently use a ScotchBrite pad on the affected area. Scratches on our copper sinks blend seamlessly into the patina and quickly become unnoticeable. We include a small bottle of copper conditioner with your sink, which acts more like a polish, adding a temporary coating to preserve the current patina. Use it only when you're happy with the patina as is; avoid using it if you're waiting for the patina to regenerate, as it inhibits this natural process. Read care advice from a past customer here.
The aprons of our copper, brass, and bronze sinks have an extremely durable clearcoat. That being said, there is no clearcoat that will not scratch. Please make sure that your plumber and other workers do not wear tool belts during the installation process. Ensure that they do not use any type of tape on the face of the apron.
Once the sink has been installed, simply wash the apron with mild soap and water as needed.
The protective clear topcoat is on the vertical surface only.
Please treat the apron with the care it deserves, much like fine furniture. Avoid using it to hang wet towels or metal towel bars, as this can lead to damage over time. Consistent leaning or pressure on the apron may eventually wear through the protective topcoat. Imagine rubbing a cloth on the same spot of your car's paint for an hour each day—eventually, friction would wear it down. Ensuring your faucet has the proper reach can help prevent this issue and maintain the apron’s pristine condition.
If you have an unlacquered brass or bronze sink without burnishing, you have two choices: Bright or Burnished. If you want to keep the sink looking bright like it did when you received it, we suggest purchasing a quality polish. You will have to clean the polish frequently - perhaps daily.
We strongly recommend the burnishing (natural weathering) of both bronze and brass sinks before they are shipped to you. This essential process will enable your sink to continue to maintain a patina similar to that of the copper sinks described on this page.
It's important to note that aged or weathered brass will take on a charming greenish tint, while bronze will acquire an alluring gold hue. To clarify, "aged," "weathered," and "burnished" all refer to the same process and result in the rich, distinctive appearance that adds character and charm to your sink.
You'll be pleasantly surprised by our sinks—they do away with the need for the bulky grids and bacteria havens that many other sink companies require. This feature is made possible by our signature hand finishing, which sets us apart from the rest.
Our finishing technique yields a distinctive, less glossy, random pattern that not only enhances the sink's visual appeal but also significantly reduces the visibility of scratches and scuff marks. If your sink sustains a bothersome scratch or scuff, fret not. Your order includes a ScotchBrite pad, allowing you to effortlessly remove the mark and seamlessly blend it in with the original pattern.
To deep clean, we recommend the liquid version of Barkeepers Friend.
Easy care here, for sure!
Simply wash your sink with soap and water.
Millennia stainless is made of domestic 304L, which is a higher grade of stainless than typical 304. The "L" stands for low carbon. So, what does that do for you? Well, this type of stainless steel exhibits outstanding corrosion resistance. You are assured that you will have a sink that will last generations.
The embossed pattern in the stainless steel helps to hide scratches and water spots. It is quite a bit shinier than our hand finished stainless. It is NSA certified to be used in food preparation as it is very easy to clean.
We simply clean our sinks with Dawn soap or something similar. If you need a deep cleaning, we suggest using the liquid form of Barkeepers Friend.
