In the event of the cancellation of a project we will charge the full value of works completed up to that point. Deposits and stage payments are not usually refundable, but we will always try to be reasonable and fair in this respect.

The timber in a Green oak frame will shrink once completed. The gentler the drying process, the better it will be for your frame. Please remember that beams will move and develop splits during drying. If in any doubt look at some old frames to gauge how your own will appear once it has settled in. We are able to give further advice on this.

Any quotation supplied by us is valid for three months and subject to revision thereafter.

It is our normal practice to take photographs during and upon completion of any work we are contracted to do. In addition we may use these photographs (unidentified address) in subsequent publicity. If the use of photographs in publicity is not acceptable please inform us in writing.
