warranty & workmanship

The finest quality workmanship is guaranteed when you purchase from the Robert Plumb range.


Robert Plumb Pty. Ltd. gives replacement warranty only on all products.
Stainless steel has a 10 year warranty; timber component for stainless steel has a 5 year warranty; timber furniture has a 5 year structural warranty (not including cushions or fabric); Woven Furniture has a 5 year warranty on the frame and 2 years on the rattan; Pedge planters have a 3 year warranty; Fibrestone pots have a 3 year warranty.


These warranties specifically exclude damage due to normal wear and tear, abuse or misuse of the product in a manner other than its intended use.
Timber
Natural weathering affects all timber exposed to the elements. Robert Plumb Pty. Ltd. uses two types of timber: New Guinea Rosewood and Victorian Ash Hardwood. Both these timbers are graded for outdoor use.


New Guinea Rosewood is used on most of our timber furniture due to its proven external durability and dense stable nature. It has similar properties to teak and has a very fine grain.


Victorian Ash Hardwood is an excellent Australian hardwood, however it is less stable and is more susceptible to expansion and contraction. It develops a more rustic appearance over time. We recommend the use of our Victorian Ash Hardwood for our heavier timber products only. For example, Chunky I and Chunky II, Maxi and Frankenstool ranges.


As timber is a natural material, tonal differences among the various elements may occur. Moreover if the products are purchased at different periods the elapsed time and climatic conditions may cause variations in colour and tone and Robert Plumb Pty. Ltd. cannot accept any responsibility.


Any product used outdoors should be regularly maintained to extend the life of the product.


Stainless Steel
Our stainless steel products are manufactured from the highest quality marine grade stainless steel (unless otherwise stated) which will maintain its natural integrity during the life of the product.
