FAQs
What material are the troughs made from?
The troughs are made from Scandinavian Redwood.
What does the ten-year rot-free guarantee cover?
The guarantee covers the timber against rot for ten years from the date of purchase, provided the product is used and maintained as intended.
Is assembly required?
No, assembly is not required as the product comes with a White Glove bespoke delivery and assembly service.
Can these troughs be used indoors?
These troughs are designed for outdoor use. Indoor use may affect the wood's condition due to differences in humidity and ventilation.
How should I prepare the troughs for planting?
Ensure adequate drainage. You can line the troughs with a permeable fabric liner or add a layer of gravel at the base before adding your soil and plants.
What are the dimensions of the large troughs?
The product description specifies '4pc Large Trough Set', implying generous dimensions suitable for substantial planting. Please refer to specific product listings for exact measurements.
How often should I reapply wood preservative?
While the timber is treated, reapplication of a suitable wood preservative or oil can be done annually or as needed, especially after harsh weather, to maintain the wood's condition and appearance.
Troubleshooting
Uneven placement after delivery
Gently adjust the position of the troughs. If significant issues persist, contact customer support as the White Glove service should ensure proper placement.
Wood appears dry or faded
Apply a suitable outdoor wood preservative or oil according to product instructions to restore color and protection.
Water pooling at the bottom
Ensure drainage holes are clear or consider adding a layer of gravel at the base before planting to improve drainage.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The Charles Taylor 4pc Large Trough Set includes a White Glove bespoke delivery and assembly service. This means professionals will deliver and set up the troughs for you as part of the service. Please coordinate with the delivery team for scheduling.
Compatibility: These troughs are designed for outdoor use and are compatible with various soil types and gardening needs. Ensure the chosen location provides adequate drainage, especially if planting directly into the troughs without a liner. They are suitable for patios, decking, gardens, and balconies where space permits.
Care: To maintain the appearance and longevity of the Scandinavian Redwood, periodic cleaning with a damp cloth is recommended. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners. While the timber is treated, occasional reapplication of a wood preservative or oil, following manufacturer guidelines, can further protect the wood and enhance its natural finish. Ensure good air circulation around the base of the troughs to prevent moisture buildup.
