Typical costs associated with return can be in excess of £150 per pallet of paving, however we will calculate these on a case by case basis.
3.5 Prior to return, it is your responsibility to take reasonable care of the items. If you fail to take reasonable care and this results in damage or deterioration, we will charge you for the reduction in value.

If you do not return the goods delivered to you or do not pay the costs of delivery, we shall be entitled to deduct the direct costs of recovering the goods from the amount to be credited to you.
3.7 This cancellation policy does not affect your legal rights if goods are faulty.

4. Cancellation by Us

4.1 We reserve the right to cancel the contract between us if:

4.1.1 We have insufficient stock to deliver the goods you have ordered;
4.1.2 We do not deliver to your area;

We will not be obliged to offer any additional compensation for disappointment suffered.

5. Delivery of Goods to You

5.1 We will deliver the goods ordered by you to the address you give us for delivery at the time you make your order subject to the following clauses:

5.1.1 Our standard delivery service uses large 18 tonne vehicles – about the size of a large removal lorry. The dimensions of the vehicle are approximately: L10m x W2.8m x H3.6m
5.1.2 It is your responsibility to tell us at the time of ordering if this vehicle is too large for your access. At our discretion and subject to availability, a smaller vehicle may be available to deliver the goods. The dimensions of this vehicle are approximately: L7.10m x W2.4m x H3.2m. This may incur additional fees
5.1.3 Delivery is made to kerbside only and will be unloaded from the back of the vehicle using a tail-lift (a platform that lowers down). The pallets are then rolled off the vehicle; therefore it is very important that the ground is level and hard such as tarmac or concrete. Grass, compacted soil and gravel are not suitable areas for unloading.
5.1.4 Should the carrier encounter problems with delivery as a result of the failure to disclose any relevant information, you will be responsible for full costs of aborted delivery. Similarly, any delays preventing immediate offloading of goods will incur fees which you will be liable to pay.
5.1.5 Delivery dates are often notified by the carrier prior to the goods arriving with you. Alternatively, we will make every effort to inform you of the anticipated delivery date in advance. Delivery will be made as soon as possible after your order is accepted and in any event within 30 days of your order. Delivery dates notified to you are for guidance only and while we will make all reasonable efforts to meet any proposed delivery date, specific delivery dates cannot be guaranteed and any failure to deliver on a specified day will not be a breach of contract by us and save as precluded by law we will not be liable to you for any indirect or consequential loss, damage or expenses (including loss of profits, business or goodwill) howsoever arising out of any problem caused as a result of a delayed or unscheduled delivery and we shall have no liability to pay any money to you by way of compensation other than to refund to you the amount paid by you for the delivery surcharge in question.
5.1.6 You or your authorised representative must be present at your premises on delivery of the goods to check the goods prior to signing for the delivery and where necessary assist the driver with the off loading of the goods.
5.1.7 Occasionally, some pallets of paving will be extremely heavy and the driver may need assistance in unloading the pallet from the vehicle. We use an economical delivery service to ensure our prices remain low, which restricts the maximum offload weight per pallet. If providing assistance to the driver is likely to cause you difficulty, please advise us beforehand and we will offer alternative delivery options, however these are likely to incur additional fees.
5.1.8 By accepting our terms and conditions you acknowledge the conditions required for delivery. You must inform us of any reasons why clauses 5.1.1 to 5.1.8 inclusive cannot be complied with at the time of placing your order failing which you will be liable for any return and redelivery fees if the delivery company is unable to deliver the goods to you on arrival at your premises. Typical costs for redelivery are £60 per pallet of paving and for return, these costs may be in excess of £150 per pallet of paving, however we will calculate exact costs on an individual case by case basis.

6. Acceptance of Goods & Liability

6.1 If you do not receive the goods ordered within 30 days of the date on which you ordered them, we shall have no liability to you unless you notify us in writing at our contact address of the problem within 40 days of the date on which you ordered the goods. Some out of stock items may have longer delivery times and this will be explained to you at time of order. Multiple item orders may not arrive together.
6.2 If the goods we deliver are not what you ordered or are damaged or defective or the delivery is of an incorrect quantity, this should where possible be recorded at time of delivery on the carrier's delivery docket. Furthermore, we must be notified in writing/ via email with photographic evidence of any issues within 7 days following delivery.
6.3 If you notify a problem to us under clauses 6.1 or 6.2 above, our only obligation will be:

6.3.1 to make good any shortage or non-delivery
6.3.2 to replace any goods that are damaged or defective; or
6.3.3 to refund to you the amount paid by you for the goods in question in whatever way we choose.

6.4 Save as precluded by law, we will not be liable to you for any indirect or consequential loss, damage or expenses (including loss of profits, business or goodwill) howsoever arising out of any problem you notify to us under this condition and we shall have no liability to pay any money to you by way of compensation other than to refund to you the amount paid by you for the goods in question under clause 6.3.3 above.
6.5 Do not arrange for contractors to be on site until your goods have been delivered and checked.
6.6 You become the owner of the goods you have ordered when they have been delivered to you. Once goods have been delivered to you they will be held at your own risk and we will not be held liable for their loss or destruction.
6.7 You must observe and comply with all applicable regulations and legislation, including obtaining all necessary customs, import or other permits to purchase goods from our site. The importation or exportation of certain of our goods to you may be prohibited by certain national laws. We make no representation and accept no liability in respect of the export or import of the goods you purchase.
6.8 Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in these terms and conditions is intended to limit any rights you might have as a consumer under applicable local law or other statutory rights that may not be excluded nor in any way to exclude or limit our liability to you for any death or personal injury resulting from our negligence.

7. Product Quality

7.1 All photographs are provided as an indication of product appearance only, as lighting conditions, screen calibration and natural variances may affect the appearance of the product.
7.2 Natural stone products may vary in colour and texture and will contain individual markings and natural imperfections. These include, but are not limited to mineral deposits which may change over time as the minerals oxidise and can appear as copper, bronze or black colouration or quartzite veining. Reconstituted (manmade) stone products contain natural aggregates and these may vary in colour and texture between batches.
7.3 Sawn edged or machine finished flags may include minor variances and irregularities. The surface of hand-cut paving may delaminate slightly.
7.4 Efflorescence (white markings) may appear on the surface of concrete paving as a result of a chemical reaction between cement and water. This is a natural phenomenon and will gradually disappear with weathering. Efflorescence is a characteristic of good quality paving with high cement content.
7.5 Natural wood products may exhibit cracks, resins and marrow, gnarls and grains, rough sections, salts, pinholes and mould. These characteristics are normal and are usually part of the drying, processing or treating stages of the timber and will lessen or become less obvious over time.
7.6 Turf, sedum and Meadowmat are living products and should be laid within 2 hours of delivery onto a suitable surface. Living products must be watered twice daily until established and furthermore in dry conditions.
7.7 Sizes quoted are nominal and may vary in accordance with manufacturing tolerances. As a general guide, paving sizes quoted may vary by +/- 5mm. The thickness of calibrated paving may vary by +/- 4mm. Some manufacturers include the pointing allowance in the specified paving size. Usually, the quoted sizes and coverage shown on our website are achieved when using an average 10mm pointing joint. Product shape and weight may also vary.
7.8 Unless specified otherwise, all buildings and timber items require construction on site and will often need minor cutting to materials to complete the project. This necessitates the use of tools as appropriate.
7.9 As products may vary between packs and batches, ensure they are mixed from each pack to achieve a blended overall appearance.
7.10 Ensure all goods are checked for damage and defects prior to use as we will not be held responsible for any associated costs of uplifting and relaying.
7.11 Many products will weather over time and this may appear in the form of gradual fading (mainly manmade paving) and lichen/ organic growth discolouration in certain environmental conditions. Areas close to trees or planting borders may be prone to discolouration and require cleaning. Sealing paving can often reduce this effect, however seek the manufacturer's guidance prior to application. Many products will require annual maintenance. Only use cleaning and maintenance products suitable for the product you have purchased.
7.12 Unless specified to the contrary, our products are intended for exterior use on pathways, driveways, patio and garden applications. Driveway paving products should be used in lightly trafficked areas as this paving is designed for withstanding vehicular weight.
7.13 Samples are provided as an indication of colour and texture only and sample thickness is not necessarily representative of the actual product.
7.14 The manufacturers of our products have a continual policy of product improvement. We therefore reserve the right to alter or change our product specifications without notification.
7.15 All complaints must be received in writing. We will deal with the matter in accordance with your legal rights.

8. Health & Safety

8.1 It is recommended that extreme care is taken when handling our products. Many of our products are heavy and awkward in shape to lift and often, suitable lifting equipment will be required.
8.2 Care should be taken when opening crates of paving and these should always be unloaded from the top of the packs.
8.3 Appropriate protective clothing and safety equipment should be used at all times and health and safety legislation should be followed when working with our products. This includes, but is not limited to eye protection and respiratory protection to protect against stone chippings and airborne dust particles during cutting processes.
8.4 It is your responsibility to ensure you comply with all applicable health and safety regulations and guidelines.

9. Notices

9.1 Unless otherwise expressly stated in these terms and conditions, all notices from you to us must be in writing and sent to our contact address at Denmark Farm Barn, Norwich Road, Hardingham, Norwich, Norfolk. NR9 4EG and all notices from us to you will be displayed on our website from time to time.

10. Events Beyond our Control

10.1 We shall have no liability to you for any failure to deliver goods you have ordered or any delay in doing so or for any damage or defect to goods delivered that is caused by any event or circumstance beyond our reasonable control including, without limitation, strikes, lock-outs and other industrial disputed, breakdown of systems or network access, flood, fire, explosion or accident.

15. Entire Agreement
