The Bespoke Process
At Francone Bespoke Taps, we turn your ideas into reality. Whether you have a rough sketch, a reference image, or just a concept in mind, our team of skilled artisans can craft something truly unique for your space. From custom finishes to intricate engravings, we offer full customisation to ensure your taps and fixtures are tailored precisely to your needs.
What We Can Customise
- Finishes: Choose from our extensive range, including polished brass, aged bronze, stainless steel, and more. View our finishes.
- Handles: Swap out traditional styles for something entirely your own—whether it’s initials, unique textures, or completely new shapes. See our handle options, or create your own design…
- Accessories: Need a special spout or alternative design components? We can source and customise them for you.
- Engraving: Add custom lettering, branding, or designs to backplates and inserts—it doesn’t have to be just ‘H’ and ‘C’!
- Special Designs: We've created everything from taps shaped like a hand or a fox to muscle-man hooks for Barry’s Gym. If you can imagine it, we can make it.
The Bespoke Process
- Initial Conversation – Get in touch with us to discuss your ideas. You can provide sketches, reference images, or just a description of what you need. Contact us.
- Estimated Quote – We’ll provide an initial price estimate based on your design concept.
- Finalising the Details – Once we refine your design, we confirm materials, finishes, and technical requirements. If needed, we create models or prototypes.
- Final Quote & Approval – Once everything is agreed upon, we issue the final quote for approval.
- Production Begins – Our artisans begin crafting your bespoke piece, with a production lead time of approximately 8-12 weeks. Lead times will depend on the design and will be agreed with you in advance.
- Delivery & Installation – Your finished taps are carefully packed and delivered to your location.
Our Artisan Approach
The moment we receive an enquiry, our artisans discuss how best to bring your vision to life. Through a process of collaboration and refinement, we ensure the final piece meets your exact expectations. In some cases, we work with local technicians to create wooden or plastic models or produce prototypes to help visualise the final result.
