Kiln Firing has moved to the Pumphouse

Kiln Firing at The Pumphouse

The Pumphouse operates two kilns, providing a comprehensive firing service for various types of ceramic work. All kiln firings must be pre-paid at a rate of $10 per kilogram for members and $15 per kilogram for non-members. To book a firing, please fill out the form below and agree to the terms and conditions. You must also mark your work with your name or a unique identifier to make it easier to identify and collect. Please supply a copy of your unique identifier to The Pumphouse staff.

All clay pieces go through a minimum of two firings:

Bisque Firing: This is the first firing for all types of clay. Once your work is completely dry, it is ready for Bisque firing. This process removes any residual moisture and prepares the clay for glazing.
Second Firing: The second firing sets the glazes and hardens the clay to its strongest form. You must specify the type of firing you need to match the clay you used.
