Section 13:- Handmade

All Shore Joinery products are 100% handmade and due to the natural materials used, each product may vary slightly from the product photograph. Every piece of wood is completely unique in terms of grain, colour, markings and knots but we do our absolute best to carefully select and match the wood so our products are consistent. We use high quality, FSC certified hardwoods at all times which has been dried to the correct moisture content. Very occasionally, warping, shrinking or dimensional changes can happen due to wood being a natural, active material and can be affected by moisture, temperature and humidity. If any movement in the wood should occur, making alterations to temperature and moisture usually rectifies this issue. As we are working with natural materials, it is normal to see signs of some movement during its lifetime.
