q: What are the Delivery Guidelines?

Deliveries are to the kerb side only; our driver will endeavour to place the goods as close as possible to the jobsite but is under no obligation to do so.

Deliveries that require us to exit and re-enter the carriageway will be subject to charges in addition to the standard delivery fee.

If we are requested to exit and re-enter the public carriageway, all care will be taken, but We accept no responsibility for damage to property, above or below Ground-level , or debris as a result of our exiting or re-entering.

Any damage/breakage that may occur to site and product become the customers responsibility.

For access to your property through neighbouring land, it is your responsibility to have written permission prior to delivery.

We will follow customer instructions and do the delivery without the need to sight the written permission; should any damage occur to the site; it will be the customers responsibility.

We reserve the right to charge A delivery surcharge on weekends and Public Holidays.

 
q: How long between when I place an order and when I get my goods?

Deliveries are processed promptly upon receipt of full payment.

The more notice you can give us the more likely we will be able to deliver at the time you request.

If it is a last-minute order, we suggest calling us to see what we can do to assist.

First up delivery spots are a favourite of the Trade, so if you are looking for an early delivery and it is for the next day, or the beginning of the week, it may be best to call us to at least book the time slot, then mention the booking when placing your order.

If it is all straightforward;

  • We will coordinate with our Delivery Team in finding an appropriate delivery time.
