- Why you should read them. Please read these terms carefully before you submit your order to us. These terms tell you who we are, how we will provide products to you, how you and we may change or end the contract, what to do if there is a problem and other important information. If you think that there is a mistake in these terms, please contact us to discuss.

- Our contract with you
- How we will accept your order. Our website will guide you through how to place an order online, once you have pressed the confirm order button at the end of the checkout process, we will send you an order acknowledgement email detailing the products and services you have ordered. This is an order confirmation or order acceptance. If you place an order in person, acceptance of your order will take place when you pay for and collect your goods.
- If we cannot accept your order. If we are unable to accept your order, we will inform you of this and will not charge you for the product. This might be because the product is out of stock, because of the delivery location, because we cannot authorise your payment, because of unexpected limits on our resources which we could not reasonably plan for or because we have identified an error in the price or description of the product.
- Your order number. We will assign an order number to your order and tell you what it is, when you receive your order acknowledgement via e-mail. It will help us if you can tell us the order number whenever you contact us about your order.
- Our products
- Products may vary slightly from their pictures. Any samples, images of the products or illustrations on our website and E-bay, are for illustrative purposes only and for the sole purpose of giving an approximate idea of the products referred to in them. They shall not form part of the contract. Although we have made every effort to display the colours accurately, we cannot guarantee that a device’s display of the colours or the printed pictures in our website and E-bay accurately reflects the colour of the products. Your product may vary slightly from those images.
- Product packaging may vary. The packaging of the product may vary from that shown in images on our website or in our brochure.
- Making sure your measurements are accurate. Prior to ordering, please make sure that you have measured correctly – details of product sizing and fitting requirements are specified on our website and are provided on telephone calls or any written communication.
- 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, the type of system your processor works with, if your shower has a diverter, etc. 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 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. This is also applicable for services requested for a “same day turn-around”.
- Delivery
- Delivery costs and locations. The costs of delivery will be as displayed on our website or as told to you over the telephone. Such costs are for delivery to addresses within mainland UK, (excluding the Scottish islands, Isle of Man, Isle of Scilly and the Channel Islands). There are free and chargeable delivery options. We may charge you additional costs if you require delivery to an address outside the Specified Locations (for example for packing, loading, carriage and insurance charges) and you shall be responsible for any relevant custom duties and any other costs of importation. If you are unsure whether we are able to deliver to your area please contact us to check before you place your order.
- Increase in costs. We may, by giving notice to you at any time before delivery, increase the price of the goods to reflect any increase in the cost of the goods that is due to:
- any factor beyond our control (including foreign exchange fluctuations, increases in taxes and duties, and increases in labour, materials and other manufacturing costs);
- any request by you to change the delivery date(s), quantities or types of goods ordered; or
- any delay caused by any of your instructions or your failure to give us adequate or accurate information or instructions.
- When we will provide the products. During the order process we will let you know when we will provide the products to you. Usually an e-mail will be sent to you with the tracking reference of the delivery company. All delivery dates given are estimates only.
- We are not responsible for delays outside our control. If our supply of the products is delayed by an event outside our control we will not be liable for delays caused by the event.
– All orders (services and products) requested for a next day delivery will have to be placed before 13:00pm. This is our couriers cut of point. Any orders placed after this time will be processed and dispatched the following day on a next day delivery.
– Orders, for services placed with requests for a “same day turnaround” and next day delivery will have to be delivered, to us, before 10:00 so that we can complete the works required and dispatch the goods for a next day delivery. Any packages arriving after this time will still have the works completed “under the same day turnaround”, however the goods will be dispatched the next day for delivery the day after.
- Collection by you. If you have asked to collect the products from our premises, you can collect them from us at any time during 9am and 5pm on weekdays (excluding public holidays) however this will have to be pre-agreed with us.
- If you are not at home when the product is delivered. If no one is available at your address to take delivery, the courier or mail service will leave you a note informing you of how to rearrange delivery or collect the products from the nearest courier’s drop off/access point to you (if appropriate).
- If you do not re-arrange delivery.

- Price and payment
- Where to find the price for the product. The price of the product will be the price indicated on our website or E-bay listings when you placed your order, or as set out in our e-mail reports or as told to you over the telephone. All prices have the non VAT element until further notice. We take all reasonable care to ensure that the price of the product advised to you is correct.
- What happens if we got the price wrong. It is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the products we sell or services we offer, may be incorrectly priced/delivered. 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.
- When you must pay and how you must pay. We accept payment by bank transfer, by credit or debit card, BACS as well as PayPal. Please note: all PayPal payments will have 5% added to the total amount.

You may be able to get a refund if you are within the cooling-off period, but this may be subject to deductions and you will have to pay the costs of return of any goods; If you changed you mind about a purchase you made we will expect you to return the product unused and its original packaging. There will be 10% restocking charge applied before the money is refunded back to you.
- Ending the contract because of something we have done or are going to do. If you are ending a contract for a reason set out below the contract will end immediately and we will refund you in full for any products which have not been provided. The reasons are:
- we have told you about an error in the price or description of the product you have ordered and you do not wish to proceed;
- there is a risk that supply of the products may be significantly delayed because of events outside our control;
- we have suspended supply of the products for technical reasons, or notify you we are going to suspend them for technical reasons, in each case for a period of more than 5 working days; or
- you have a legal right to end the contract because of something we have done wrong.
- Exercising your right to change your mind if you are a consumer and have ordered online or over the telephone. If you are a consumer, how long you have to change your mind depends on what you have ordered and how it is delivered:
- Have you boughtservices (for example, conversion) online? If so, you have 14 days after the day, you receive your order to confirmation to change your mind. However, once we have completed the services you cannot change your mind, even if the period is still running. If you cancel after we have started the services, you must pay us for the services provided up until the time you tell us that you have changed your mind.
- Have you bought goods(for example, a shower controller) online? If so you have 14 days after the day you receive the goods to change your mind.
- When consumers do not have a right to change their minds. Your right as a consumer to change your mind does not apply in respect of:
- When realising the fault with your shower is due to other components and not the processor itself.
- Services, once these have been completed, even if the cancellation period is still running.
- Ending the contract where we are not at fault and there is no right to change your mind. Even if we are not at fault and you are not a customer, who has a right to change their mind, you can still end the contract before it is completed, but you may have to pay us compensation. A contract for goods is completed when the product is delivered and paid for. A contract for services is completed when we have finished providing the services and you have paid for them. If you want to end a contract before it is completed where we are not at fault and you are not a customer who has changed their mind, just contact us to let us know. The contract will end immediately and we will refund any sums paid by you for products not provided but we may deduct from that refund (or, if you have not made an advance payment, charge you) reasonable compensation for the net costs we will incur as a result of your ending the contract. Usually this is 10% of the total of cost if your purchase.
