UPDATE 30\/9\/2021 – Our courier partners are no longer suffering any<\/strong> futher delivery delays<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

September 2021, a month that will be remembered by all for us starting to stock \n\nZinnser<\/a>, our great \n\nOsmo<\/a> \n\ngive<\/a> \n\naway<\/a> deals and of course, a shortage of HGV drivers causing a temporary nationwide fuel shortage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Has the fuel shortage affected Wood Finishes Direct?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We have had some mild disruption caused by our courier partners being impacted by the fuel shortage. So, at this time, we cannot offer express delivery. We are still fulfilling our Economy Delivery service with no disruption, dont forget, we are offering \n\nFREE Economy delivery on all orders until 3rd October 2021<\/a>! (no longer live)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our store in Folkestone, Kent is still open and serving as normal.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
