Francone Bespoke Taps Spotted on 'Derelict Rescue'!

We’re thrilled to share that Francone Bespoke Taps made a special appearance on a recent episode of HGTV's Derelict Rescue. This hit show, loved by fans of unique architecture and daring restorations, spotlights some of Britain’s bravest builders as they tackle the UK’s most rundown and unusual properties, transforming them into breathtaking dream homes. From abandoned water towers to forgotten farmhouses, these families are risking everything to breathe new life into the most extraordinary spaces.

In this particular episode, fanatical salvagers Carly and Tim (of @thesundayschool) take on the daunting challenge of restoring a neglected Sunday School building in the heart of Yorkshire. Their approach to this restoration is as sustainable as it is creative, as they’ve committed to using reclaimed materials, buying second-hand, and re-purposing as much as possible to bring their vision to life.

Here at Francone, we are truly honoured that Carly and Tim chose our fixtures to feature in their thoughtfully designed bathroom. Carly selected our BTS32 dual-control concealed thermostatic shower, which perfectly complements the BTS23 wall-mounted hand shower. Additionally, their impressive double sink—rescued from an old bar—boasts two of our classic BT41 wall-mounted traditional taps, adding a timeless touch to this unique restoration.
