FURNITURE & LARGE ITEM CONDITIONS

CHECKING ACCESS - MOST IMPORTANT!

Please ensure you check access for the furniture you are ordering as it is your responsibility to ascertain that access is possible. If access depends on precise dimensions, please ask for a dimension check, as all dimensions are approximate and variations may occur, particularly in our handcarved ranges. Our delivery personnel are not obliged to take heavy items of furniture upstairs (unless previously agreed), this is entirely at their own discretion, as we have to comply with strict Health & Safety regulations and cannot risk injury to staff. If on inspection they judge that an item of furniture may not fit into or through the access space or that they may incur physical injury or risk damage to the item or your property, then we reserve the right to leave the item in a safe and convenient alternative location. If the item cannot be delivered for reasons of access we reserve the right to charge for storage and redelivery in addition to any cancellation fees (if applicable - see cancellations & refunds).

As most of our furniture is made and painted to order - we cannot offer refunds unless the piece is deemed faulty. Please note that our paint finishes can allow the character of the wood to show - for example woodgrain & knots - these are not considered as faults. Our furniture is made from solid pine, beech and selected hardwoods - exposure to heat may cause some shrinking and splitting - which we regret we cannot accept as reason for refund. However, should you require advice/aftercare for any acute problems please contact customer services.

DELIVERY TIMES 

We will endeavour to deliver your furniture within the time stated upon ordering (typically 2-6 weeks) - we will, wherever possible, advise you of any anticipated additional delay when placing your order, however, failure to deliver within the estimated time cannot be considered as grounds for cancellation.
