TIMBER DISCLAIMER

Timber is a natural living product and is constantly moving, depending upon the surrounding environment. Small splits may appear in the timber when a change in environment occurs quickly. This is a normal part of the natural adaptation process and is not considered to be a material or workmanship defect.

 

The nature of timber means that there can be fluctuation of natural characteristics including tone, gum vein, gum pockets, grain pattern and knots. We always ensure we match the timber as close as possible to your preferences. However, each piece of timber is unique and we cannot guarantee to reproduce an exact match. Customers are welcome to provide their own timber for any work carried out by us.
