At AgainstTheGrain, we are committed to providing our customers with the best woodworking products and services. That's why we have compiled a list of frequently asked questions to help you. If you have any additional questions, please don't hesitate to contact us.
-
How much do Live Edge Products cost?One of the most common questions we get asked is what a custom, live edge order could cost. While we cannot provide an exact cost due to the fact each piece is 100% unique and therefore brings its' own price tag, below are general ballparks for each type of offering. Just remember, all of our handcrafted items are customized to your design and style, which means there are several factors (wood species, size, epoxy, base, etc.) that go into each price. The ranges below are just ballpark values that can fluctuate base on the design and current supply costs. If you have a budget in mind, don't hesitate to reach out and we will let you know what's possible. End Tables: $500+ Coffee Tables: $950+ Desks: $1,500+ Bar / Console Tables: $2,000+ Dinette Tables: $2,500+ Dining Tables: $4,000+ Epoxy Resin Tables: Generally speaking, epoxy resin tables will cost higher than a solid wood table in the same size.
-
Do you sell custom table legs/bases separately?Not at this time.
-
Do you offer general carpentry services?We specialize in working with live edge material to create beautiful masterpieces and leave general carpentry (bookcases, installations, cutting wood, etc.) to other professionals around the area.
-
Do you offer delivery?Yes we do! We offer local delivery services around the Indianapolis, IN area for an extra fee. Delivery fees are based on the size and quantity of the order, along with the location of delivery. Unless otherwise noted, delivery is not included within the estimated project price at the time an order is placed so that we can keep costs as low as possible for you.
-
Can I make changes to my order after signing the work order?Well, it depends! If any material is already purchased, changes cannot be guaranteed without an additional charge.
-
Will the epoxy resin coloring look the same in the wood as it does online?Not necessarily. We like to caution our customers by saying the shade of the coloring may be several shades above or below the chosen color that is represented by an online photo.
-
How long does it typically take to get a quote?Less than a day! We take much pride in our ability to be as responsive as possible. When you first contact us, we will provide a ballpark range for your order. Once a few additional design details are narrowed down, we will provide a more accurate quote - typically within the same day.
-
How long does does it take to have a custom piece of Live Edge furniture built?It depends on the size and complexity of the build, but generally speaking, our lead times range between 8-20 weeks. Smaller products (i.e. coffee tables, shelves, home décor pieces, etc.) may only take 2-4 weeks depending on current projects at hand and availability of wood.
-
Can I expedite my order?While there are certain limitations on the amount of time it takes to build a piece of Live Edge furniture, we may be able to accomodate expedited timelines. Expedited timelines are at the sole discretion of AgainstTheGrain Woodworking and will result in additional costs.
-
Do I have to put a deposit down on my order?Due to the high cost of materials used when building a Live Edge product, we do require a 50% down deposit before production begins. This deposit is applied to your overall balance and is non-refundable once materials are purchased and/or production begins. The remaining balance is due at completion when the order is picked up or delivered.
-
Can I reserve a Live Edge Slab without payment?Unfortunately, no. Slabs are available at a first come, first serve basis. If a quote is put together with a particular slab in mind, the availability of the slab is not guaranteed until payment is received and the slab is picked up.
-
Can I pick out my own slab?Of course! Once payment is received and the sourcing process begins, photos of the slabs are sent for review and approval. We do not take clients onsite while purchasing the slab, but you have the option to view the photos live to choose which slab you prefer. It's okay too if you don't want to choose the slab - we can take care of it. If you are not available when the slab chosing process is being held, we will also make an executive decision on which slab to go with.
-
Are returns accepted?All of our items are custom made, even those that can be ordered online through our shop. That said, we do not accept returns.
