Quote validity - The above quotation is only valid for 30 days from the date of receipt. This is due to our suppliers increasing the price of materials from time to time as well as any promotional prices offered to return to their regular cost. Payment schedule - Payment will be requested promptly upon completion of work undertaken. We politely request you make every effort to settle your bill on the last day of work. Delay in balance will result in additional charges of 20% late payment fee after 3 working days if the balance is uncleared. We accept cash and bank transfer payments. IMPORTANT - We do not accept cheques. Deposit/Interim payments - We ask for a 20% non-refundable deposit on all jobs which exceed 1500£ quotations and weekly interim payments will be required if works exceed one week. You will be informed in advance if this is to be the case and any deposits and/or interim payments will be deducted from your final invoice accordingly. Unforeseen work - Every effort has been made to provide you with a quotation that is as accurate as possible
however, there are occasionally unforeseen problems that will need to be addressed before we can proceed. These normally come in the form of poor wall condition found underneath wallpaper that is being removed
as part of your job painting on top of lining paper or previously badly prepared woodwork. Should any of this damage or complications arise, we will discuss all options and additional costs with you before proceeding. If necessary we can recommend other traders to you on a no-obligation basis if we cannot quote for the work ourselves. Site preparation - Prior to our arrival on your agreed date all working areas must be cleared allowing us to carry out our work unhampered. Smaller items and breakables should be boxed and removed completely. Where possible, please remove small furniture to another room also. It is the customer's responsibility to clear the work area of any furniture/ equipment/ personal items that could be subject to damage; if you require assistance we will help but not be held responsible for any damage caused. Let us know of any larger items that cannot be removed and we will either make arrangements to have them removed or cover them up to the best of our ability along with your existing floor covering and immovable objects such as kitchen units or build in wardrobes. Paint supplies - We tend to use our preferred choice of high quality branded paints for certain work to be carried out to obtain the best result. If you opt to source your own products additional labour may be incurred by applying extra coats to achieve satisfactory coverage. If at any point you the client changes your mind regarding paint colour/finish/wallpaper etc any replacement materials and further labour will be at your expense. The client is responsible for checking batch numbers on wallpaper rolls and shade/finish of paint to be used prior
to the application of the materials If you opt to source your own products. Similarly, if you instruct us to purchase an alternative brand of paint the costs will be adjusted accordingly. Materials and tools - On projects lasting longer than 1 day, we will politely request we leave our tools and materials on site. These will of course be placed in a tidy secure location agreed with you. Radiator removal - Approximately 50% of painting and wallpapering jobs can be carried out without the need to remove your radiators. If you decide that you would like them removed for a better standard of finish,
let us know and we can arrange to have this done for a small extra cost by a qualified plumber
as modern heating systems tend to need re-pressurised once replaced. Or alternatively, you can arrange your own plumber prior to our arrival. Damaged work - If our work is part of an overall larger project involving multiple trades,
we will not be held responsible for any damage caused as a result of their actions. Should any damage of this nature occur we will happily provide no obligation to repair or touch up the damage. It will be your responsibility to pursue the person who damaged it for recompense. Hairline cracks are not guaranteed to stay repaired as they could be due to house movement. Any ‘snagging’ to be done must be communicated by the client within 7 working days of job completion. Start Dates - We normally agree on a proposed start date upon acceptance of our quote however
from time to time there may be circumstances outside of our control
( such as the weather or delays by other trades )
that prevent us from getting to you by the agreed date. In the event of this being the case,
we will contact you immediately to make you aware and to agree to a change to the date. By accepting this quotation you are accepting these terms and conditions. Terms and Conditions for a Builder or decorator –
