Frequently Asked Questions

SPECIFICATIONS & CARE

WHAT MATERIALS IS YOUR ARTWORK MADE FROM?

We use the latest technology in HD printing to bring you the most vibrant, eye catching art possible.

Our canvases proudly feature genuine Epson inks certified by Greenguard and Ecologo, ensuring minimal environmental impact while delivering stunning brilliance.

Our archival quality canvases are printed on 14 mill thick 360-380 GSM. Each piece of art has a satin finish and is featured on museum-quality polycotton canvas that’s hand-stretched over sturdy wood frames, providing both durability and elegance.

Our floating frames are 1.7” thick, stylish, and handmade from non-hazardous SPF Wood. Floating frames arrive pre-installed with a sturdy wire hanger that is also pre-installed, making your order ready to hang right out of the box.

Our canvases that do not feature a floating frame have multiple thickness options (0.75” Standard & 1.50” Gallery). They come pre-installed with industrial grade sawtooth hangers and are also ready to hang right out of the box.

Is there any assembly required?

Nope, go from ship to show with no installation!  All of our artwork is delivered ready to hang right out of the box with the hanging hardware pre-installed.  Non-framed items have sawtooth coated metal hooks pre-installed and framed items have wire hanger hardware pre-installed.

What is the total thickness of framed and wrapped canvases?

  • 0.75" Thick Standard Wrapped Canvas: Ideal for a sleek profile and direct wall hanging.
  • 1.50" Thick Gallery Wrapped Canvas: Offers a pronounced look against the wall, making a bold statement. That extra ¾” goes a long way, everyone will notice!
  • 1.70" Thick Floating Framed Canvas: Hand-stretched over kiln-dried pine bars and set in a solid wood floater frame for exquisite depth. Various frame color options are available including black, white, silver, gold, oak and walnut.

What are your canvases made of?

Our archival quality canvases are hand crafted from a premium blend of polyester and cotton for durability and traditional texture. With a weight of 360-380 GSM, they strike the perfect balance between strength and flexibility, supporting vibrant colors. pH neutral and acid-free, they promise lasting beauty inside your homes and/or office for over 100 years, ensuring your artwork remains pristine for generations.

How are your canvases wrapped and framed?

Our canvases undergo meticulous hand-stretching over solid wood stretcher bars to prevent warping or bowing. Their rounded edges and beautifully beveled sides minimize contact with the canvas, ensuring its integrity over time. Complementing this, our floating frames create the illusion of the canvas floating, enhancing depth and sophistication in any space. Our floating frames are hand built and cut to specification and held together with adhesive, metal brackets and industrial strength adhesive.

Do the dimensions specified for the canvas on the website account for both the canvas itself and any framing?

Yes, we construct our canvases with precision, ensuring they match the exact measurements listed on our site. If the piece requires framing, the canvas is intentionally crafted slightly smaller to accommodate the frame. This attention to detail is crucial for seamless online art shopping experiences. Please keep in mind there may be a 1/2” variance from piece to piece as all products are built by hand.

Is it possible to order my canvas in a larger or different size than what's displayed?

In some instances, yes. If a size is not available on our website that you’re looking for, please reach out to our team so we can do our best to try and accommodate your needs. Please keep in mind our sizes are carefully chosen to match the ideal proportions intended by the original artist. We prioritize delivering the highest quality prints, so exceeding the listed sizes in some cases may compromise the quality of the product, which is why some products are available in slightly larger sizes than others. That said, it’s always best to double check with us as some products just haven’t been updated with larger sizes yet.

How do I take care of my canvas?

When it comes to cleaning, it’s best to steer clear of caustic soaps or abrasives as they can harm the canvas. Instead, reach for a wet towel or feather duster. With a gentle touch, you can wipe away any dust or dirt that may have found its way onto your precious prints.

Since canvas and stretcher bars are made of organic materials, they can sometimes expand or contract based on environmental conditions. Don’t worry, we’ve got a handy trick to tighten up your polycotton canvas, simply spray or dampen the back of the canvas and let it dry naturally. As it dries, it will shrink and tighten up beautifully.

A nifty tip: If you’re in a hurry, you can use a blow dryer on the wet canvas to speed up the shrinking process!

To avoid fading over time, do not hang your canvas in an area with direct harsh sunlight.

To avoid damaging your canvas do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive tools to clean it.

To avoid mold or warping your canvas do not store it in an overly damp or humid area.

We offer a 30-Day-Guarantee that covers replacements, refunds and returns. If you’re considering requesting a replacement, refund or return, please contact us within 30 days of receiving your product, we will definitely be able to help. See below for the full details of our 30-Day-Guarantee.

In the event that a piece arrives damaged we ask that a photo of the damaged product and it's packaging be sent here: support@thegoatwallart.com.

Please be sure to take photos in natural lighting so we can clearly see any damage there may be. Upon confirming the damage we will process a replacement at no charge.

We do our best to make sure our customers are happy and we will do our best to find an optimal solution for you.

How do replacements and refunds work?

If your item(s) were received defective or damaged and we are notified within 30 days of your order being delivered, we will send you a free replacement. You have the option to choose a different design as your replacement that’s the same value as the item(s) you received that were defective/damaged. You may opt to receive your money back for the item(s) that were defective/damaged instead of receiving a replacement.

To receive a replacement or refund we will need clear photos of the damaged/defective areas of the item(s) you purchased. Please include photos of the box so we can inform our shipping carrier of the damage. Photos of the box are not required, but we ask for them because they help us work with our shipping carriers to improve our services. Note: Refund requests are subject to inspection of the photos sent displaying damage/defects. All products are built from scratch and should be defect and damage free.

We do not cover theft. If a product is delivered to the address we were provided with on your order and it is stolen from your property, we are unable to replace it free of charge, however, we’re able to provide you with a replacement purchase at a reduced rate if you would like to reorder the item. In this situation, it’s best to contact us by phone: 707-271-0500, text: 707-271-0500, chat: (on website), or email: support@thegoatwallart.com so we do our best to assist you.

How to returns work?

If your item is not defective or damaged and you would like to return it, you may do so as long as you ship it back within 30 days from the day your order was delivered.

Prior to shipping the item back you will need to contact us and send clear photos depicting the item in its undamaged condition. We do not accept returns for damaged items. We do not cover return shipping costs, you will need to purchase the shipping label for any undamaged return. Any item(s) returned must be in its original packaging and wrapped in their protective materials. Returned item(s) must be unused and undamaged and they must match the photos sent of the undamaged item(s) upon return. If a returned item is received back damaged or it does not match its condition in the photos sent to us prior to it being returned and was not sent in its original packaging materials, a refund will not be issued. We do not keep inventory; all products are built brand new and to spec at the time of their order and are customized to an order’s specifications. Due to this, a 20% restocking fee may be deducted from any refund issued due to the return of an item that is not defective or damaged. We do not provide pre-paid shipping packages or labels for returns, you must send back the unwanted item(s) at your own expense.

Note: Although our “Create Your Own” products are still covered by our 30-Day-Guarantee for replacements and defects, we do not accept returns for any products sold from the "Create Your Own" collection. These are the products that allow you to upload your own image and can be found here: https://thegoatwallart.com/collections/custom-made.

How do refunds for returned items work?

Once your return is received and inspected, we will send you an email to notify you that we have received your returned item(s) and the outcome of our inspection. If your refund is approved, they almost always are, it will be processed and a credit will automatically be applied to your original payment method in 2-5 business days.

What happens if my refund is late or missing?

Although we notify you within minutes of us processing the refund on our end, bank payment processors can take up to 10 business days to officially post a refund to your account. If it’s been over 10 business days since we processed your refund and it still hadn’t posted to your account, contact your bank to confirm the refund is not pending and then contact us and make us aware of the situation.

What happens if my order looks different than what is shown on your website?

This would be considered a product defect and is covered by our 30-Day-Guarantee. All items ordered should look within 90% of how they appear on our website. Please keep in mind:

  • What you see on the website is displayed on monitors, phones and tablets which have backlit screens. Canvas prints are hung indoors and require light to truly come to life. For optimal results make sure place your new canvas print in an area with decent lighting so the light can help showcase its beautiful vibrant colors. The better the lighting, the better it will look.
  • There may be very minor or slight variations in the alignment of an image displayed on our website than on the final product as all items are genuinely built by hand. Anything beyond a minor almost unnoticeable variation is considered a product defect and is covered by our 30-Day-Guarantee.

Can I change or cancel my order?

We are committed to our customers and want you to be happy! You may cancel or change your order within 24 hours of the time of purchase free of charge. Orders cannot be cancelled after 48 hours from the time of purchase.

If your purchase occurred between 24-48 hours ago, we cannot guarantee we will be able to cancel your order because your order may have already been printed or built to your specifications.
