TIMBER CHARACTERISTICS / QUALITY ISSUES

Splits and cracks are to be expected in timber and they naturally appear in the grain due to changing temperatures and humidity levels. They are not a cause for concern and will not affect the strength/durability of the product.

If a particular split of crack becomes visible and is a concern simply use the " 2p Coin Test" as a guide. There is no need for concern if the coin will not fit. If the coin does fit in the split, potentially there may be an issue. In order for the customer service team to investigate this fully, it should be reported in writing together with a photograph of a 2p coin in place
