As you may have noticed, our lead times have been significantly longer in recent months. There are several factors causing this and for those interested in knowing, I have included some explanations below. The "tl;dr" ie. shortened version is that we're doing all we can to increase our output and get caught up, but there are factors beyond our control. Please rest assured that we are just as anxious to get your order to you as you are to receive it!
Our longer lead time explanation has to begin with staffing. We of course want to provide a sa ..read more

On the positive side of this issue, it's great to see that furniture stores have been so busy as consumers certainly seem to be in a buying mood since lockdown restrictions have been lifted throughout most parts of Canada.
After our 9-week shutdown here at Springwater, we are doing our best to work through the pending orders we had from ..read more

With the "curve" flattening and businesses & the economy finally beginning to open back up here in Ontario, we have recently been able to bring back a limited number of our team members to resume production. We've put measures into place to ensure staff safety including hand sanitizer stations, touchless punch-in / punch-out, walkie-talkie apps on our phones to eliminate close contact talking, and these nifty foot grips so we don't have to touch door knobs!:
If you placed an order with us pre-March 13 we will be contacting you shortly to confirm an approximate ETA; if yo ..read more

Last week (March 16-20) we remained open even as many other businesses closed. We are a relatively "contained system" with a limited number of visitors and lower staff count last week, and with more stringent cleaning practices / social distancing / enforced hand washing all week we felt confident that we could avoid transmission of any viruses. However as you all know the fluidity of this virus outbreak has been changing not just day by day but hour by hour, so heeding to local public health alerts over the weekend we decided it would be best for the safety of our staff, dealers ..read more
