FAQ
What is this sign made from?
This custom slate house sign is crafted from genuine slate, offering a durable and textured surface. The natural colour variation of the slate creates a unique aesthetic for each plaque.
How big does it actually get?
The size of this plaque is compact at 20x15cm, making it ideal for smaller entrances or detailing. However, it's best suited for applications where a smaller scale is desired rather than larger gateposts.
Is the engraving permanent?
Due to the hand-engraving process, this plaque offers a deep and lasting finish. The slate material provides excellent resistance against wear and tear, ensuring the inscription remains clear over time.
Does it come with everything I need to hang it?
Yes, the sign includes screws, wall plugs and grey screw caps for straightforward mounting onto walls or surfaces. This allows you to easily attach the plaque securely in place.
How do I clean and maintain my slate sign?
To keep your slate sign looking its best, gently wipe it down with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that could damage the surface finish of the stone.
What's this compared to laser-engraved signs in a similar price range?
Unlike laser-engraved options, this sign is hand-crafted from slate, resulting in a naturally unique appearance. The tactile feel and depth of the engraving differentiate it from mass-produced laser-cut designs.
Is it weatherproof?
The plaque is designed for outdoor use, but like all natural stone products, it’s recommended to protect it from prolonged exposure to harsh weather conditions such as extreme temperatures or heavy rainfall. Consider applying a sealant periodically for enhanced durability.
What if I'm not happy with the engraving?
Please refer to Amazon's standard returns policy for information regarding product satisfaction and potential return options, which will depend on the seller’s specific terms.
Will the colour of the slate change over time?
As a natural stone product, the colour of the slate may subtly shift or develop over time due to exposure to sunlight. This is normal for slate and contributes to its unique character.
What kind of surface is it suitable for mounting?
The plaque can be mounted onto various wall surfaces using the included fixings, but ensure the surface is clean and stable before installation for a secure attachment.
