A guide to understanding the natural characteristics of timber and what to do if you feel there is an issue...
If a particular split or crack becomes visible and is
of 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 this case, in order for customer services
to investigate the matter fully, it should be reported in
writing to your retailer, along with a clear photograph
showing the 2p coin in place.
“Here at Zest we take any complaint very seriously
and each one is investigated individually and judged
specifically using established guidelines to determine
if it is a justified complaint and whether a replacement
part is required. “
