Shading is inherent in the manufacturing of tiles. Please ensure that an acceptable blend or mix is achieved before fixing tiles as no responsibility is taken by the Company when tiles are fixed.

4. DATE FOR PAYMENT

Payment is strictly due to be paid from the Buyer in full within thirty days from the end of month in which the invoice is dated (other than cash sales). Ownership does not pass to the buyer until payment is made in full. If the Company has not been paid what is outstanding by the Buyer for the said period, within five working days the account will be put on hold and any further goods will not be released until payment is received in full without any deduction. Late payments surcharge will then be applied to the Buyers account.

Goods ordered and a deposit put on them will only be held for a period of three weeks. If no further monies are made payable to the Company, goods will then be no longer held and will be returned back to stock.

6. RETURNS

As tiles are produced in batches, shading differences occur. Due to this tiles will only be accepted back from the Buyer if the tile is still in stock and the same batch reference. If the batches have changed the Company will not accept returns. Under no circumstances will non-stock items including motifs be accepted for return or exchange. If returning goods they will only be accepted back within three weeks from date of purchase, (providing the batch is still in stock) and providing they are in a saleable condition.

A restocking charge of 20% of the value will be made on goods returned or exchanged. No cash refunds, a cheque will be posted within 14 days.

7. TILING

The Company is not liable for workmanship of any tiler nor do they have tillers employed. All tiles as aforesaid must be checked before laying them, any problems must be notified in writing to the Company within 48 hours following dispatch. Once the tiler has laid the titles the Company is not responsible for any problems which may occur. The workmanship is then between the Buyer and the Tiler and must be taken up with the Tiler. A list of Tilers can be given by the Company upon request, but this list is only a list of names, they can be used solely at the Buyers discretion. The Tilers are not the responsibility of the Company, and the Company does not take responsibility for their work. This is completely at the Buyers discretion on whom to get to do the tiling.

8. PRIMING

All areas to be tiled will require the use of an acrylic primer (as per manufacturer’s instructions) prior to tiling. Where primer is not used, we will not take any responsibility should there be any issues with the tiles not being set properly.

9. ANTI-SLIP RATING

For those requiring a specific anti-slip rating, please specify to a member of staff when purchasing. We will not take responsibility regarding any sales where a specific rating has NOT been specified.
