  • Select up to three reasons for your complaint about this product.
  • Missing on delivery
    Missing on delivery

    We take great care to ensure that all deliveries are complete. We check every delivery several times and count everything again before shipping. However, it can happen that items have been forgotten by us or have been lost during delivery.

  • Was delivered too much
    Was delivered too much

    Our employees check each delivery several times to ensure that it is correct. Should we make a mistake and we send you more than you ordered, we appreciate your honesty!

  • transport damage
    transport damage

    Transport damage is when the goods were damaged by the supplier on the way to you. Failure to handle the delivery may result in damage. This can cause cracks or scratches on the wood.

  • Spin-off

    A split is a wedge-shaped splinter that can form on the long edge of a plank. Planks with a split on the A side are sorted out by us. These may occur on the B side as they do not impair the constructive stability of the plank.

  • knothole
    knothole

    Knotholes on the A side are sorted out. On the B-side they are tolerated if they are not consistent. Firmly grown knots without a hole are not sorted out.

  • Damage to the end of the plank
    Damage at the end of the plank

    Floorboards may show minor damage at the end due to transport or cutting. Therefore, the planks are usually delivered slightly oversized. If the damage is so severe that a correct catalog size can no longer be achieved after cutting, the plank will be sorted out.

  • Damage to longitudinal edge
    Damage to long edge

    Floorboards may show minor damage on the long edge due to transport or cutting. These are usually small dents, splits or cracks in the wood.

  • width different

    Depending on the humidity, the widths of the decking boards change slightly. Such natural changes in width are not sorted out. However, if the width is too small or too wide due to an error in planing, the plank is sorted out.

  • different length
    different length

    Decking boards are usually supplied with a slight oversize in length. This means that it is still possible to eliminate transport damage at the end of the plank and still install the plank in the dimensions specified in the catalogue. Planks that do not reach the length of the catalog dimensions are sorted out.

  • Break
    Break

    A break occurs when the plank or panel breaks into two pieces during transport. We always sort out breakages and use the most protective packaging material possible when shipping. However, fractures can rarely occur, especially with larger plates.

  • strength different
    strength different

    The plank thickness can vary by a tenth of a millimeter due to humidity and temperature changes. If the plank thickness is different due to an error in the planing (as shown), the plank will be sorted out by us.

  • final crack
    final crack

    End cracks can occur on the cut edge of the decking boards. Good drying and front edge wax reduce the risk, but cannot completely eliminate it. If the end crack is so deep that the plank can no longer be installed in your catalog dimensions despite the excess length after cutting, it will be sorted out.

  • stains
    stains

    During transport and storage, water stains can form on the floorboards, for example due to condensation. Since water stains can be removed without much effort - for example by sanding - dirty floorboards are not sorted out.

  • Color
    Color

    No decking board is like the other. Planks of the same type of wood also differ in colour. Therefore, the decking boards are not sorted according to their colour.

  • odor
    odor

    Some types of wood can develop an odor - especially when it is freshly laid and when it is warm and damp. This is one of the typical properties of wood. Planks are not sorted out because of their smell. The smell usually goes away after a few days or weeks.

  • bigger hole
    bigger hole

    A hole larger than 3mm in diameter may be caused by a moisture meter, a bore or an insect. Such holes are sorted out on the A side and tolerated on the B side. The holes can be closed with a round rod. An acute insect infestation can be ruled out due to the natural properties of tropical wood.

  • planing error
    planing error

    Planing defects are indentations or burn marks caused by the planing machine. Planing errors on the A-side of a plank are sorted out. On the B-side they are tolerated.

  • Wooden spatula
    Wooden spatula

    In production, in rare cases, holes are closed with a wooden spatula. We try to sort out the planks that have been filled on the A side. Because the filling has sometimes been implemented very well and is hardly recognizable, it can sometimes be overlooked.

  • scratch
    scratch

    Scratches can occur during storage or transport. A deep scratch (as shown) on the A side will be rejected and tolerated on the B side. Slight scratches, which can be removed with a simple abrasion, are tolerated.

  • surface cracks
    surface cracks

    These are superficial cracks that do not go through the full thickness of the decking. Surface cracks can occur in floorboards after long periods of drought, are among the properties typical of wood and are not sorted out. Decking oil reduces cracking.

  • pinholes
    pinholes

    These are very small holes, less than 3mm in diameter, and tend to appear in clusters. Pinholes are caused by insects in the tropics. To a small extent (up to 10 pinholes per meter), pinholes on the A side are tolerated because they do not pose any structural restrictions. A higher occurrence of pinholes on the A-side is sorted out. Pinholes are tolerated on the B-side.

  • roughness
    roughness

    Decking boards differ in their surface structure. Some planks can be a little rougher or fine wood fibers can stand up after weathering. This roughness is a characteristic of wood and is not sorted out. In the case of boards that are perceived as too rough, we recommend sanding them down with a 120 grit after the first weather exposure.

  • Screws break off
    Screws break off

    Our decking screws are made of unbreakable stainless steel (AISI 410) and should never tear off. However, in rare cases, using a cordless screwdriver with too much force can break the screw head. Even after installation, the screws can still tear off due to the natural expansion of the wood.

  • slates
    slates

    Slate is a wedge-shaped split or peeling off of the decking boards. Slate boards are sorted out by us. However, it cannot be ruled out that the floorboards will slate after installation and for a longer period of time outdoors.

  • sapwood
    sapwood

    Sapwood is the younger growth wood and occurs at the edges of a tree. Planks with a sapwood content of more than 5% on the A side are sorted out. Planks with a sapwood content of more than 20% on the B-side are also sorted out.

  • Discoloration of timbers
    Discoloration of timbers

    Decking boards are stacked with batts to prevent mold stains and to increase the stability of the stack. This can cause discolouration on wood that darkens. However, since these disappear under weathering, discoloration from wooden battens is tolerated.

  • pollution
    pollution

    During transport and storage, water stains can form on the floorboards, for example due to condensation. In rare cases, there may also be traces of paint, chalk marks or residues of adhesive tape on the floorboards. Since these blemishes can be removed without much effort - for example with soft soap - dirty floorboards are not sorted out.

  • delay
    delay

    Solid wood can warp due to changes in temperature and humidity. A vertical distortion (left-right) of the plank over 1,5% is sorted out. A horizontal warpage (up-down) or less vertical warping is tolerated, since these planks can be straightened and installed without any problems.

  • interlocked grain
    interlocked grain

    A changing direction of growth of the wood fibers is referred to as interlocked grain. As a result, not all wood fibers are planed off smoothly during planing and strip-like color changes can occur. Interlocking grain is not sorted out because it is one of the typical wood properties. The fibers can be smoothed by grinding.

  • So that we can find a quick solution, it would be helpful if you could document each reason for the complaint with at least one photo.

        End cracks can occur on the cut edge of the decking boards. Good drying and front edge wax reduce the risk, but cannot completely eliminate it. If the end crack is so deep that the plank can no longer be installed in your catalog dimensions despite the excess length after cutting, it will be sorted out.

      • stains
        stains

        During transport and storage, water stains can form on the floorboards, for example due to condensation. Since water stains can be removed without much effort - for example by sanding - dirty floorboards are not sorted out.

      • Color
        Color

        No decking board is like the other. Planks of the same type of wood also differ in colour. Therefore, the decking boards are not sorted according to their colour.

      • odor
        odor

        Some types of wood can develop an odor - especially when it is freshly laid and when it is warm and damp. This is one of the typical properties of wood. Planks are not sorted out because of their smell. The smell usually goes away after a few days or weeks.

      • bigger hole
        bigger hole

        A hole larger than 3mm in diameter may be caused by a moisture meter, a bore or an insect. Such holes are sorted out on the A side and tolerated on the B side. The holes can be closed with a round rod. An acute insect infestation can be ruled out due to the natural properties of tropical wood.

      • planing error
        planing error

        Planing defects are indentations or burn marks caused by the planing machine. Planing errors on the A-side of a plank are sorted out. On the B-side they are tolerated.

      • Wooden spatula
        Wooden spatula

        In production, in rare cases, holes are closed with a wooden spatula. We try to sort out the planks that have been filled on the A side. Because the filling has sometimes been implemented very well and is hardly recognizable, it can sometimes be overlooked.

      • scratch
        scratch

        Scratches can occur during storage or transport. A deep scratch (as shown) on the A side will be rejected and tolerated on the B side. Slight scratches, which can be removed with a simple abrasion, are tolerated.

      • surface cracks
        surface cracks

        These are superficial cracks that do not go through the full thickness of the decking. Surface cracks can occur in floorboards after long periods of drought, are among the properties typical of wood and are not sorted out. Decking oil reduces cracking.

      • pinholes
        pinholes

        These are very small holes, less than 3mm in diameter, and tend to appear in clusters. Pinholes are caused by insects in the tropics. To a small extent (up to 10 pinholes per meter), pinholes on the A side are tolerated because they do not pose any structural restrictions. A higher occurrence of pinholes on the A-side is sorted out. Pinholes are tolerated on the B-side.

      • roughness
        roughness

        Decking boards differ in their surface structure. Some planks can be a little rougher or fine wood fibers can stand up after weathering. This roughness is a characteristic of wood and is not sorted out. In the case of boards that are perceived as too rough, we recommend sanding them down with a 120 grit after the first weather exposure.

      • Screws break off
        Screws break off

        Our decking screws are made of unbreakable stainless steel (AISI 410) and should never tear off. However, in rare cases, using a cordless screwdriver with too much force can break the screw head. Even after installation, the screws can still tear off due to the natural expansion of the wood.

      • slates
        slates

        Slate is a wedge-shaped split or peeling off of the decking boards. Slate boards are sorted out by us. However, it cannot be ruled out that the floorboards will slate after installation and for a longer period of time outdoors.

      • sapwood
        sapwood

        Sapwood is the younger growth wood and occurs at the edges of a tree. Planks with a sapwood content of more than 5% on the A side are sorted out. Planks with a sapwood content of more than 20% on the B-side are also sorted out.

      • Discoloration of timbers
        Discoloration of timbers

        Decking boards are stacked with batts to prevent mold stains and to increase the stability of the stack. This can cause discolouration on wood that darkens. However, since these disappear under weathering, discoloration from wooden battens is tolerated.

      • pollution
        pollution

        During transport and storage, water stains can form on the floorboards, for example due to condensation. In rare cases, there may also be traces of paint, chalk marks or residues of adhesive tape on the floorboards. Since these blemishes can be removed without much effort - for example with soft soap - dirty floorboards are not sorted out.

      • delay
        delay

        Solid wood can warp due to changes in temperature and humidity. A vertical distortion (left-right) of the plank over 1,5% is sorted out. A horizontal warpage (up-down) or less vertical warping is tolerated, since these planks can be straightened and installed without any problems.

      • interlocked grain
        interlocked grain

        A changing direction of growth of the wood fibers is referred to as interlocked grain. As a result, not all wood fibers are planed off smoothly during planing and strip-like color changes can occur. Interlocking grain is not sorted out because it is one of the typical wood properties. The fibers can be smoothed by grinding.

        FSC save forest

        Protection through use: The main reason for the destruction of the rainforest is its displacement by agriculture. By buying FSC-certified wood, people in the tropics can make a living from sustainable forest management. The forest becomes valuable and worth protecting. Wood with the FSC 100% seal is regularly subjected to independent checks and comes from forests that are preserved for the long term precisely because of their management. Wood without an FSC certificate can also come from clear-cutting.
