- Our Products
3.1 Products may differ slightly from their images. The product images on our website are for illustrative purposes only. We strive to accurately display the colors of our products; however, as colors may vary on different screens, we cannot guarantee complete accuracy. If concerned about a product’s appearance, please call us on 0730 910 3984 for a sample.
3.2 Products marked as ‘End of Line’ are discontinued and will not be restocked. This means we cannot source parts or replace these products if issues arise. This status affects pricing but does not alter your statutory right to a refund for dissatisfaction. Please see our refunds policy in section 8 for details.
3.3 If you wish to change your product order after placing it but before dispatch, contact us. We will inform you if the change is possible and provide details on any price adjustments, delivery timing, or other necessary changes. You will need to confirm if you wish to proceed with the change.
- Pricing and Payment
4.1 Prices and charges on our website are in Pounds Sterling. Product prices include VAT but exclude delivery costs, which are calculated during checkout based on delivery service, location, and product size or weight. We strive to ensure pricing accuracy.

If a pricing error is obvious and recognizable, we may end the contract, refund any sums paid, and require the return of any products provided.

We are not responsible for items going out of stock after unallocation. We can store your order for two weeks from the final item’s allocation; after 14 days, a storage fee of £15 per week will apply.

Once all items are in stock, if you haven’t paid the full balance, we will contact you to collect outstanding payment and arrange delivery. Items will only be kept allocated for 14 days from the date the last item was allocated. If we do not hear from you within this period, items will be unallocated, and your deposit refunded. We are not responsible for stock availability after unallocation if we have made every effort to contact you.
