If you cancel after delivery has been made or attempted, you may only do so subject to the following conditions:

Please note that we will not begin manufacturing your products during this 48 hour period.

Damaged Goods

 

It is entirely your responsibility to ensure that the delivered goods are checked before signing the delivery note. If you have received a pallet or crate that is damaged and have chosen to accept the delivery, it is important that you sign the delivery note as "damaged" and that you notify us of any damage within 24 hours of delivery in writing by e-mail with photographic evidence. Signing of the delivery note as “unchecked” or similar wording does not relieve you of the obligation to notify us of any damage within the first 24 hours from delivery. We will not accept claims for damaged goods if the carrier has obtained a clean signature or if more than 24 hours after delivery have elapsed.

 

We will contact you to establish what the best remedy for the damaged goods should be.

Change of Mind Returns (Cooling Off Period with the exception of bespoke products)

 

These rights apply to the extent that you have purchased the product as a consumer. You may return any delivered product(s) you have purchased within 3 working days after the day of delivery for any reason (including if you simply change your mind). To do so you must notify us in writing via email. If you are returning a product because you have changed your mind after delivery, you must arrange for return transport of the goods at your own cost. All returned products must be returned unused, as new, and in an undamaged condition. We advise you to return goods in their original product packaging with all shrink wrapping and banding around the pallet or crate still intact. The products will be at your risk during return, so please make sure that the items are sufficiently packaged to prevent damage occurring during their return. All items will be checked upon return.

We may dispose of them if not collected within 30 days.

 

Products that are damaged or broken on arrival (Cancelling the Order)

 

In cases where the products are found to be damaged or broken on delivery and you wish to cancel the order as a result, provided damage is reported within 24 hours of delivery as set out above, we will organise collection of the damaged item(s) from you. Until this time, the products remain at your risk and you should take reasonable care of them, including securing, packaging and/or storage of the goods to prevent further damage. Following collection and inspection, provided we are satisfied the goods have been damaged in transit or otherwise before delivery, a full refund will be issued. If the goods are deemed to have been damaged after delivery, no refund will be issued.

 

Damaged or Broken on Arrival (Replacement Parts or Items)

 

In cases where our products are damaged or broken on delivery and you wish to have a replacement or repair parts sent, provided damage is reported within 24 hours of delivery as set out above, we will use reasonable endeavours to provide suitable replacement products or parts. In this case, we will advise you of a date for the collection of the damaged or broken items and subject to return and inspection of the items, we will then issue a replacement within our normal delivery schedule. All returned products must be returned in the condition in which they were received by you, and you are responsible for ensuring that the items are sufficiently packaged to prevent further damage occurring during their return. All items will be checked upon return before the relevant action is taken. The products remain at your risk until collected by ourselves. Please note replacement parts or products can vary, as explained in our terms and conditions of Sale, so may not be identical to the items being replaced. In particular, colours and shades can vary by batch and could be different from your original order.

 

Item received is not what you ordered

 

If the products delivered to you are not what you ordered, or do not correspond fully with the itemised description on your order and you wish to discuss this please notify us immediately via email. Please also refer to our terms and conditions of Sale.

 

Item is faulty on delivery

 

Where you believe any product may be faulty, you must notify us within 3 days of delivery by contacting us in writing via email. We can then arrange for a replacement or refund as required. In both instances we will arrange to collect the products and inspect them. If the products are found to be faulty we will arrange for a replacement to be sent or to refund you the cost of your purchase. If the products are not found to be faulty or we believe the damage was done to the product after delivery, no refund will be made and we reserve the right to charge you the costs associated with collection.

 

Late claims

 

If we have not received written notification of any return, fault or defect as set out above within 3 working days of the day after delivery or attempted delivery, it will be assumed that acceptance of the goods has taken place. Any subsequent claim will be subject to our discretion, and we reserve the right to choose whether to repair, replace the product or make a refund.

 

Goods missing on delivery

 

It is your responsibility to check against the carrier’s delivery note that the appropriate number of packages, parcels, pallets or crates has been received, and that the correct number and description of ordered goods or items has been received. You must notify us within 24hrs of receipt via email of any shortages. Once an item has been installed, it cannot be returned and the purchase price cannot be refunded.
