It’s a fact of nature: no two pieces of wood are exactly alike—even from the same tree. These variations contribute to the beauty and distinction of natural woods. Yet, it is important to understand what to expect.
Care & Cleaning
While our laminate and wood finishing process promotes durability, care should be taken to preserve the original factory finish:
- Wipe up spills immediately
- Use mild soaps only
- Be sure to read all cabinet care guidelines and cleaning product instructions carefully
Natural Factors
All cabinet materials are graded to industry standard, but variations should be expected:
- Naturally occurring color, grain, and texture differences
- Color deviations, even within the same section of wood
- Differences between open and closed-grain areas
- Each piece responds differently to materials during finishing
Environmental Factors
Cabinetry added at a later date may not match the original cabinets installed. This may be due to:
- Exposure to sunlight, smoke and chemicals
- Change in door samples or displays due to age
Because of environmental factors, Timberlake is not responsible for texture, color, or wood grain variations in your cabinets.
