3. OUR CONTRACT WITH YOU

3.1 - How we will accept your order. Our acceptance of your order will take place when we email you to accept it, at which point a contract will come into existence between you and us. This will be called a Processed Order Confirmation, an Order Acknowledgement email does not mean that the order has been accepted.

3.2 - If we cannot accept your order. If we are unable to accept your order, we will inform you of this and will refund you in full. This might be because the product is out of stock, because of unexpected limits on our resources which we could not reasonably plan for, because we have identified an error in the price or description of the product or because we are unable to meet a delivery deadline you have specified.

3.3 - Your order number. We will assign an order number to your order and tell you what it is when sending your Order Acknowledgement Email. It will help us if you can tell us the order number whenever you contact us about your order.

4. OUR PRODUCTS

4.1 - Products may vary slightly from their pictures. The images of the products on our website are for illustrative purposes only. Although we have made every effort to display the colours accurately, we cannot guarantee that a device's display of the colours accurately reflects the colour of the products. Your product may vary slightly from those images. Please also remember that some of the products pictured on our website have been pre-finished (stained, waxed or lacquered) and therefore might not be an exact representation of the product you will receive.

4.2 - Making sure your measurements are accurate. If we are making the product to measurements you have given us you are responsible for ensuring that these measurements are correct. We will make the product to these measurements, but subject to a plus or minus 4mm tolerance. You can find information [and tips] on how to measure [on our website or] by contacting us.



5. YOUR RIGHTS TO MAKE CHANGES

5.1 - This clause only applies to orders of standard products; it does not apply to the purchase of custom made products. If you wish to make a change to your order, please contact us. We will let you know if the change is possible. If it is possible we will let you know about any changes to the price of the product, the timing of supply or anything else which would be necessary as a result of your requested change and ask you to confirm whether you wish to go ahead with the change. If we cannot make the change or the consequences of making the change are unacceptable to you, you may want to end the contract (see clause 8- Your rights to end the contract).

5.2 - If you have ordered a custom made product (also referred to as custom sized, bespoke, purpose made, or made to customer spec) then once ordered, your product cannot be changed and you do not have the right to end the contract in the event of mistakes in ordering. Please contact us immediately if you have ordered a custom made product incorrectly and we will try to assist, but we are under no obligation to do so.



6. OUR RIGHTS TO MAKE CHANGES

6.1 - Minor changes to the products. We may change the product:

  • a) to reflect changes in relevant laws and regulatory requirements (although we do not guarantee our products conform to building regulations documents part ‘L’); and
  • b) because of variations in the timber caused by different batches of products.



7. PROVIDING THE PRODUCTS

7.1 - Delivery costs. The costs of delivery will be as displayed to you on our website.

7.2 - When we will provide the products. We will deliver them to you as soon as reasonably possible and we will contact you with an estimated delivery date, which for standard products, will usually be within 30 days after the day on which we accept your order. If we cannot supply a product within 30 days we will let you know. For custom made products the delivery time may be longer, but we will keep you informed. We will deliver your entire order in one delivery; we do not deliver products in separate parts unless a prior agreement has been reached.

7.3 - We are not responsible for delays outside our control. If our supply of the products is delayed by an event outside our control (eg. if our suppliers delay their supply of your products to us) then we will contact you as soon as possible to let you know and we will take steps to minimise the effect of the delay. Provided we do this we will not be liable for delays caused by the event. If the time for supply is essential, you must tell us when placing your order so we can confirm whether or not we can meet your deadline. Please do not book tradesmen to fit to the products until you have received and checked them as we cannot be responsible for the costs of cancellation of tradesmen due to goods not yet being delivered.

7.4 - Collection by you. If you have asked to collect the products from our premises, you will receive a collection confirmation email to let you know that your products are ready. You can collect them from us at any time during our usual working hours. You will be asked to produce identification and to sign for the products upon collection. Informing us of when you expect to collect the goods may mean that you receive them quicker. If you choose to collect products that you later wish to return, then you will have to return them to our premises.

7.5 - Delivery. We will deliver the products, either by a Doordeals delivery driver or using a reputable third party courier. Prior to the proposed delivery we will send you an email containing delivery information and/Or an SMS message to ask you to confirm that you will be available to take delivery. Delivery acceptance by you is required before the products are dispatched. On the evening prior to the delivery we will notify you of an estimated 3 hour delivery window.

7.6 - If you are not at home when the product is delivered. If no one is available at your address to take delivery and sign to confirm acceptance of the products we will leave you a note informing you of how to rearrange delivery or collect the products. If you arrange for us to deliver the products again, this will be at an additional cost to you. We would prefer not to leave the products outside the delivery address. However, if you ask us to, we will leave the products in a secure place specified by you. Eg. porch, shed, with a neighbour. Our responsibility for the products ends at the time we leave them, if they are damaged or missing, or have been left outside in bad weather, you must accept the risk of this.

7.7 - If you do not re-arrange delivery. If you do not collect the products from us as arranged or if, after a failed delivery to you, you do not re-arrange delivery or collect them from a delivery depot we will contact you for further instructions and may charge you for storage costs and any further delivery costs. If, despite our reasonable efforts, we are unable to contact you or re-arrange delivery or collection we may end the contract and clause 10.2 will apply.

7.8 - Your legal rights if we deliver goods late. You have legal rights if we deliver any goods late. If we miss the agreed delivery deadline for any goods then you may treat the contract as at an end straight away if any of the following apply:

  • a) we have refused to deliver the goods;
  • b) delivery within the delivery deadline was essential (taking into account all the relevant circumstances); or
  • c) you told us when you placed your order that delivery within the delivery deadline was essential.

7.9 - Setting a new deadline for delivery. If you do not wish to treat the contract as at an end straight away, or do not have the right to do so under clause 7.8, you can give us a new deadline for delivery, which must be reasonable, and you can treat the contract as at an end if we do not meet the new deadline.

7.10 - Ending the contract for late delivery. If you do choose to treat the contract as at an end for late delivery under clause 7.8 or clause 7.9, you can cancel your order for any of the goods before they are delivered to you. If you wish, you can cancel the order for some of those goods (not all of them), unless splitting them up would significantly reduce their value. After that we will refund any sums you have paid to us for the cancelled goods and their delivery. This may affect any discount or price reduction previously agreed.

7.11 - When you become responsible for the goods. Subject to clause 7.12 below, a product will be owned by you and be your responsibility from the time we deliver the product to the address you gave us or you collect it from us. We will ask you to sign a delivery note confirming that you have received all of the products, and that they are in good condition.

7.12 - When you own goods. You own the product once we have received payment in full. If, at the time of delivery, you have not paid for the goods, title to the goods shall not pass to you until we receive payment in full (in cash or cleared funds) for them, in which case title to the goods shall pass at the time of payment.

7.13 - Until title to the goods has passed to you, you shall:

  • a) store the goods separately from all other goods held by you so that they remain readily identifiable as our property;
  • b) not remove, deface or obscure any identifying mark or packaging on or relating to the goods; and
  • c) maintain the goods in satisfactory condition and keep them insured against all risks for their full price from the date of delivery.

7.14 - What will happen if you do not give required information to us. We may need certain information from you so that we can supply the products to you, for example, measurements or required finish. If so, this will have been stated in the description of the products on our website. We will contact you to ask for this information. If you do not give us this information within a reasonable time of us asking for it, or if you give us incomplete or incorrect information, we may either end the contract (and clause 10.2 will apply) or make an additional charge of a reasonable sum to compensate us for any extra work that is required as a result. We will not be responsible for supplying the products late or not supplying any part of them if this is caused by you not giving us the information we need within a reasonable time of us asking for it.

However please see clause 12.3 for what happens if we discover an error in the price of the product you order.

12.2 - We will pass on changes in the rate of VAT. If the rate of VAT changes between your order date and the date we supply the product, we will adjust the rate of VAT that you pay, unless you have already paid for the product in full before the change in the rate of VAT takes effect.

12.3 - What happens if we got the price wrong. It is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the products we sell may be incorrectly priced. We will normally check prices before accepting your order so that, where the product's correct price at your order date is less than our stated price at your order date, we will charge the lower amount. If the product's correct price at your order date is higher than the price stated to you, we will contact you for your instructions before we accept your order. If we accept and process your order where a pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could reasonably have been recognised by you as a mispricing, we may end the contract, refund you any sums you have paid and require the return of any goods provided to you.

Once the dispute is resolved we will charge you interest on correctly invoiced sums from the original due date.



13. OUR RESPONSIBILITY FOR LOSS OR DAMAGE SUFFERED BY YOU

13.1 - We are responsible to you for foreseeable loss and damage caused by us. If we fail to comply with these terms, we are responsible for loss or damage you suffer that is a foreseeable result of our breaking this contract or our failing to use reasonable care and skill, but we are not responsible for any loss or damage that is not foreseeable. Loss or damage is foreseeable if either it is obvious that it will happen or if, at the time the contract was made, both we and you knew it might happen, for example, if you discussed it with us during the sales process. PLEASE DO NOT BOOK TRADESMEN TO FIT YOUR PRODUCTS BEFORE THEY HAVE BEEN DELIVERED AND CHECKED BY YOU AS WE WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY CHARGES.

13.2 - We do not exclude or limit in any way our liability to you where it would be unlawful to do so. This includes liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence or the negligence of our employees, agents or subcontractors; for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; for breach of your legal rights in relation to the products as summarised at clause 11.2; and for defective products under the Consumer Protection Act 1987.
