Browse Forums Flooring & Floor Covering 1 Mar 05, 2011 6:23 am Hi,
We hired World of Timber to lay floors in our new home. We paid for the deposit and delivery of the timber. This was a huge amount. When we called them to lay the floor...no one answered the phone. We emailed and had no replies. Searched them on the web and found that they had filed for insolvency - last week. The director of the company - delcared nil assets. She was very nice in person and professional. http://insolvencyappointments.com.au/2011/02/world-of-timber-pty-ltd.html

This is my first post on this forum - I'm wondering what consumers can do to protect themselves from fiascos like this. Is there a way to check the viability of a company before handing over large deposits? Engineering timber is certainly a less fuss option, times cheaper to supply and install and better withstands humidity. 1 15884 Thanks Simon, I guess I'm no concerned with the volume of the noise rather that dead and hollow sound and feel that is associated with floating floors. But I'm not sure… 3 6110 The most likely cause of your timber swelling (parquetry?) is either a plumbing leak or carelessly leaving water on floors after use or both. Without seeing, i am ignoring… 1 3270 |
