Final balance payments should be made on completion of the installation.

Delivery: The Company will use its best endeavours to deliver the Goods on time.

In the event of any delay, the Company will contact the Customer and agree an alternative delivery date. In the event of any delay the Company will not accept cancellation of the Order nor pay any penalty to the Customer or any other third parties. Should the Customer be unable to accept delivery of the Goods on the agreed date for whatever reason, any outstanding balance must be paid into the Company’s bank account in cleared funds on or by the agreed delivery date. Thereafter, the Company will store the Goods free of charge for a period of 2 weeks, after which the Company reserves the right to make a charge for storage and insurance of the goods at the rate of £100 per week or part thereof.

It is the Customer’s responsibility to inform the Company prior to delivery if any such restrictions apply. The Customer will be held responsible for all delivery costs if the delivery address is inaccessible due to restrictions that have not been made known to the Company. The Customer hereby agrees to pay the Company for any penalties that are incurred by a carrier due to: street blockage by delivery vehicle; unloading taking longer than allowed by authorities; parking violations of any kind that occur while the vehicle is unloading at the Customers location. Where site conditions dictate, it is the Customers responsibility to provide sufficient manual labour to assist in off loading the goods.

Installation: The Company accepts no liability for any issues relating to the installation of the Goods. Under no circumstances will the Company be responsible for any remedial building, plastering or decorating works and unless otherwise stated. Dates given for installations may be subject to change at any time, due to a number of logistical factors. Whilst we always endeavour to stick as closely as possible to our proposed start dates, occasionally it is unavoidable that work must be delayed. The Company will not be held responsible for any losses made during this period and will not be liable for any inconvenience caused.
In the rare instance that any materials are out of stock, we will contact you directly and immediately to discuss options.
On rare occasions, due to events such as flooding, extreme weather, accidents, breakdowns, interruptions of supply, illness, theft, malicious damage, etc. we may not be able to carry out work as planned. In such circumstances, we will aim to begin work as soon as it is physically possible, however we will not be held liable for any delay caused.
Please note if we carry out works according to your instruction, design details, or measurements and we subsequently find that your instructions are such that work cannot be installed or adaptions need to be made then extra charges will be incurred at our discretion. Part (1) additional days required. Additional site days required are charged at £650.00 per day for a two-man team. Part (2) Additional workshop days will be charged at £450.00 a day per fabricator.
