3. QUOTATIONS

- You accept our Quotation by confirming the same by email or signature of contract.
- £1000 non-refundable survey deposit is paid.
- Payment is received by us in the form of either the whole price of the Quotation (the “Price”) or a non-refundable deposit (the “Deposit”) amounting to not less than 50% of the quoted Price minus the survey deposit fee.
The Price will be affected by any material changes that you request, or which are agreed provided for herein, even if we were advised of the possibility of such changes.
After the survey, we reserve the right to make any deviation from the Quotation which would not materially affect the design if in our opinion it would facilitate the proper installation of any goods supplied to you by us.
The products and services to be supplied will be set out in the Quotation. The installation of any goods supplied is your responsibility and is not included in the Contract. They are also subject to correction of any errors or omissions whether on your part or ours.
Note – once a quotation is accepted by you an “Order” is created and a one-off binding contract between the two of us (“Contract”) is also created. This does not under any circumstances constitute a continuing contractual relationship (whether renewable or otherwise) between us.
Once you have paid the price and we have discharged our delivery and performance obligations, the contractual relationship between us will be terminated.
