Description and specification of goods

We have made every reasonable effort to ensure that the Goods conform to illustrations, photographs and descriptions provided on Our website. We cannot, however, guarantee that all illustrations and/or photographs will be precisely accurate due to:

  • Differences in suppliers.
  • Exact specification chosen.
  • Differences in the colour reproduction of electronic displays.

All the images displayed in the designers are a visual representation only.

As Our Goods have a huge number of variations and combinations of options and styles, it is not possible to have photographs of all of them on Our Website, just of a select few typical examples.

Should a defect occur with the goods due to an error on Our part, We will at Our discretion decide whether it is more economical to replace, repair or refund, at Our own cost. If We are not given a reasonable opportunity to rectify any defect, the purchaser will not be reimbursed should they choose to rectify the defect themselves or by enlisting a third party.

If We find, or are made aware of, any typographical, clerical or other accidental errors or omissions in any sales and marketing literature or Our website, price lists or any other documents, We will make every reasonable effort to correct such errors or omissions as soon as is reasonably possible. If, as a result of any such error or omission, you have received the wrong Goods, you may return those Goods to Us as provided in our return section . If, as a result of any such error or omission, you have paid too much, We will refund the excess paid for the Goods.

We reserve the right to make any changes in the specification of the Goods that may be required to conform to any applicable safety or other legal or regulatory requirements without notice.

As all items are bespoke, please ensure that all information that you provide to Us are correct, accurate and complete. We cannot accept the return of any bespoke Goods if the return is due to incorrect information provided by you. Please note that this does not affect your legal rights (including but not limited to those described in these terms and conditions).


Price and payment

The Price of the Goods will be that shown on Our website in force at the time of your Order. If the Price shown in your Order differs from Our current Price We will inform you upon receipt of your Order.

Our Prices may change at any time but these changes will not affect any Orders that We have already accepted.

We have made every reasonable effort to ensure that Our Prices, as shown on Our website are correct. Prices will be checked when We process your Order. If the actual Price of the Goods is lower than that stated in your Order, you will be charged the lower Price (unless the lower price was an obvious mistake that you could have reasonably recognised). If the actual Price of the Goods is higher than that stated in your Order, We will contact you to inform you and ask you how you wish to proceed.

All Prices include VAT. If the rate of VAT changes between the date of your Order and the date of your payment, We will adjust the rate of VAT that you must pay. Changes in VAT will not affect any Prices where We have already received payment in full from you.

Our Prices exclude the cost of delivery. Delivery cost will be calculated based on your location and shown before you finalise your Order.

All payments for Goods must be made in advance before We can manufacture your Goods.

We do not handle or process your financial details, such as credit/debit card details, as all payments are processed via our payment agent LLoyds Bank.
