GUARANTEES, INSURANCE AND COMPLAINTS
Officially, we guarantee our work for three months, but we judge each case on its merits. This may seem like a small window, but we have no way of knowing what your item comes in contact with or how it’s used once it leaves our care and that may impact the work we’ve done.
Each restoration is unique and the way it wears is dependent on multiple factors, including its original condition. If you are dissatisfied with the quality of our work beyond three months, we will strive to find a solution for you. We treat each order with compassion and want you to be proud of the work we have done, as we are. Please note that our services may affect the brand warranty on your item.
We operate a zero-harm policy. If we feel there is a meaningful risk that we can’t control, we will explain this to you and obtain your permission. In the unlikely event that we do damage something, we are covered by insurance. Please note that upon receipt, we photograph each of your items. We also make note of any existing damage and the general condition they arrive in and communicate this in your assessment. Please read this carefully and let us know if you are in disagreement as soon as possible. Please also read our terms and conditions.
All of your items are trackable and confirmed at each stage of their journey. However, if the worst were to happen, we have appropriate goods in transit insurance in place.
We provide a luxury service and aim for you to have a luxury experience. If you’re unsatisfied with the result or process, please contact our customer services team at info@cathkinclean.co.uk.

If you feel your item wasn’t quite right to begin with or you’d like to refresh an old favourite — whether through a new colour, painted details, bespoke initialling, a new strap or a complete redesign — we are here to help. We advise you on inspiration and possibilities to make your idea a reality.
