Terms & Conditions of Sale

  1. In these Conditions of Sale Urban Windows, Doors and Conservatories Ltd is referred to as the Company and the person or persons signing the Purchase Contract is referred to as the Customer.
  2. The Company shall sell and the Customer shall purchase the goods and services referred to in the Purchase Contract subject to these Conditions of Sale which shall govern the contract between the Company and the Customer to the exclusion of any other Terms and Conditions which the Customer may seek to apply under any order confirmation or similar document. All orders, including any discussed and agreed verbally, must be confirmed in writing
  3. The placing of an order with the Company and the execution of the Purchase Contract will bind the Customer to these Conditions of Sale. Any variation or alteration to the terms of these Conditions of Sale shall only be binding upon the Company if agreed in writing by the Company and signed by a Director of the Company. Any such variation or alteration may result in extra charges being made by the Company.
  4. All goods ordered under the Purchase Contract and, where applicable, survey are purpose-made bespoke goods specifically manufactured to the Customer's particular requirements and as such are not resaleable to third parties. When signing the Purchase Contract and subsequent survey the Customer confirms that the description of the goods stated is accurate and complete. The Company will not accept the rejection or return of any bespoke goods due to incorrect information being provided, agreed or signed off by the Customer. Any costs incurred by the Company for bespoke goods which the Customer has agreed to purchase but then seeks to reject or return will be payable by the Customer. Nothing in this Clause affects the Customer's legal rights.
  5. The Company reserves the right to cancel this contract at any time by giving notice to the Customer and the liability of the Company in the event of such cancellation is limited to a refund of any payments made by the Customer in connection with this contract, less any costs incurred for the goods and services provided by the Company to the date of cancellation.
  6. On receipt of the signed Purchase Contract, the Company will advise the Customer of the date for the Company's surveyor to visit the installation address, to check and re-measure all the goods ordered. The Customer will be asked to sign the survey which may contain different goods or specifications to those originally purchased under this Purchase Contract due to the results of the survey or the Customer's own requirements. The final survey supersedes any previous designs and illustrations agreed during the quotation stage. The Customer's signature on the survey will amount to their agreement as to the specification of all goods and services ordered from the Company under the Purchase Contract and the survey, to include any subsequent variation to the Purchase Contract due to the survey. The Customer's signature on the survey further constitutes their agreement to the manufacturing of the bespoke goods and their liability for payment of the same under Clause 4 of these Conditions of Sale.
  7. Following receipt of the executed survey, the Company will advise the Customer of the anticipated delivery or installation period. All dates and timeframes will be estimates and any date or timeframe provided shall not be of the essence of the contract. The Company will make every reasonable effort to comply with dates or timeframes given but in the event the Company fails, for any reason to include but not limited to delay in the performance of the contract which arises from the causes beyond the reasonable control of the Company, to meet any date stated the Customer shall have no right to damages or to terminate the contract due to the same.
  8. The Customer shall permit the Company's servants, workmen or agents to have access to their premises at any reasonable time to enable installation to be completed. The Company will advise the Customer when the goods will be ready for installation and attempt to agree an installation date with the Customer. If a date for installation has not been agreed within 14 days of the Company proposing such date, the full purchase price will become due and payable immediately.
  9. Demonstration windows, doors and other products are used to demonstrate the working of a typical product and its composition. Where demonstration products are shown to the Customer, this is for the sole purpose of demonstration only and does not constitute a sale by sample. The windows or other products detailed in the Purchase Contract will be installed by the Company and manufactured by the Company's manufacturing partners. The Company reserves the right to make variations in the methods of installation without notice and shall be under no obligation to supply goods exactly conforming in appearance to samples of goods previously supplied. In the event the Company's manufacturing partners make a reasonable variation in the design and specification of its products, the Company reserves the right to accept such reasonable variation without notice to the Customer. The Company reserves the right to make any changes in the specification of the goods which are required to conform with any applicable safety or other statutory requirements or, where the goods are to be supplied to the Company's specification, which do not materially affect their quality or performance.
  10. Any claim by the Customer which is based on any defect in the quality or condition of the goods or their failure to correspond with specifications shall (whether or not delivery is refused by the Customer) be notified to the Company within 14 days from the date of delivery/installation or (where the defect or failure was not apparent on reasonable inspection) within a reasonable time after discovery of the defect or failure. If delivery is not refused and the Customer does not notify the Company accordingly, the Customer shall not be entitled to reject the goods/product and the Company shall have no liability for such defect or failure and the Customer shall be bound to pay the prices as if the goods/product had been delivered in accordance with the Contract.
  11. The Company's agreement to the provision of any credit account will be at their own discretion and subject to prior agreement with the Customer, receipt of all necessary details and an appropriate volume of business.
