Please note “we operate a 1 man delivery service” but don’t worry the driver will happily assist you in moving the item from the vehicle into a ground floor room of your choice however access into your property must be good otherwise it may become a curbside delivery. If you are not able to offer the driver assistance please do not worry we will always do our best to help. “In most cases, the drivers manage single-handed” however please ensure assistance can be offered to the driver if needed, this can also be discussed with the couriers prior to delivery.

Unfortunately, sometimes items can become damaged however in the unlikely event that your item arrives damaged simply report the damage to us by email within 24 hours from delivery we will offer to send out a replacement at no extra cost to you at all.
Please ensure that any items being returned are packaged exactly as received so that we can inspect any damages upon return, this means we will require all of the original packaging intact as received hence we advise to take care when unpacking items, its best to not tear the packing off please use scissors instead to cut any taped areas, the packaging can easily unfold open whilst being left intact if you should need to repack it again.
Naturally Occuring Defects:
Naturally occuring flaws and defects may be present in some timber used in our furniture, for example some wood may consist of minor, pitting, knots, splits or cracks. Such naturally occuring flaws or so called defects may be treated and filled with wood filler during the manufacturing process. Please keep this in mind before purchasing as these mentioned naturally occuring defects are to be expected and only considered to be part of, or add to the character of these beautiful furniture items. This also increases sustainability and reduces the footprint in producing our furniture as no piece of hardwood goes to waste.
Our couriers only contact customers if a single item on your order is either over 20kg or longer than 100cm if your furniture order exceeds this your order would be sent out on a specialist furniture courier service, therefore, our couriers would need to contact you.
You can usually expect a call from them at least 1 or 2 days in advance prior to delivery to discuss delivery slots available.
It is very important that you have provided us with valid contact numbers to ensure the couriers are able to make contact with you as without valid telephone numbers your order would be delayed or even possibly canceled.
