What is re-tinning?
Re-tinning replaces the worn tin lining inside copper cookware. The old lining is prepared and a fresh layer of tin is applied, giving a much-loved pan a new cooking surface.

How do I know if my pan needs re-tinning?
Visible copper showing through the cooking surface is a sign that the lining needs attention. Darkening alone is normal and doesn’t necessarily mean the tin needs replacing. If you’re unsure, send us clear photographs of the inside.

Can any copper pan be re-tinned?
Many traditionally tin-lined copper pans can be re-tinned, but suitability depends on their construction and condition. Stainless-steel-lined pans generally aren’t suitable for this process. Photographs help us assess your piece before you send it.

How much does re-tinning cost?
The cost depends on the pan’s size and condition. Contact us with photographs and dimensions so we can assess the work and provide a quote. https://www.normandykitchencopper.com/uteq4

How do I arrange to send my cookware?
Please contact us before sending your cookware so we can confirm suitability and the delivery arrangements. Once agreed, pack each piece securely, with plenty of cushioning and extra protection around handles.

How do I care for my newly tinned pan?
Use low to medium heat and never heat the pan empty. Choose wooden or silicone utensils, wash by hand with a soft sponge, and avoid abrasive cleaners and the dishwasher. Tin naturally darkens with use; this is normal.
