You don't need to have everything decided. Most of our tables begin with a conversation, not a final design. Tell us roughly what you're looking for and we'll take it from there.

How Designing Your Table Works

The process is collaborative from the first message to the day we deliver. Here's what to expect.

01

Tell Us Your Brief

Size, timber preference, base style, room context — as much or as little as you have. We work from a rough idea as easily as a detailed spec.

02

We Confirm Options & Price

We'll come back with what's available in our current slab stock, suggest species and sizes that suit your brief, and give you a fixed price with no surprises.

03

You Choose Your Slab

You select the actual piece of timber your table will be made from — via photos, video or a showroom visit in Stockport. Nothing is committed until you've seen and approved it.

04

We Build It

Your table is handcrafted in our Stockport workshop over 6–10 weeks. We'll update you throughout the build with photos at key stages.

05

White-Glove Delivery

We deliver and install ourselves — no couriers. We bring it in, place it where you want it and make sure you're completely happy before we leave.

What to Expect

Answers to the questions we get asked most often before an order is placed.

Will a timber table warp or move over time?

Not if it's built properly. All our timber is kiln-dried before we start work, which removes most residual moisture and minimises future movement. Our structural steel bases are designed to allow for natural timber behaviour without putting stress on the slab — so the table stays flat and stable for decades.

Can I choose my actual timber slab?

Yes — always. Once we agree on spec and you place a deposit, we'll share photos and video of the specific slab your table will be made from. You're welcome to visit the workshop to select in person. Nothing gets cut until you've approved it.

Are live edge tables sealed for dining use?

Yes. Every surface is professionally finished and sealed before delivery — either with a penetrating hardwax oil or a surface lacquer, depending on your preference. The surface is food-safe, water-resistant and suitable for daily family dining use.

Do you offer payment options?

We take a 50% deposit to secure your order and slab, with the balance due prior to delivery. Payment is by bank transfer. We'll provide full written order confirmation before any money changes hands. If you'd like to discuss staged payments for larger orders, just ask.

Do you deliver and install?

Yes — we deliver and install ourselves on all orders. We don't hand off to couriers. Standard white-glove delivery to mainland UK is included in the price. We bring the table in, place it where you want it and make sure you're happy before we leave.
