4. DELIVERY OF A PRODUCT
4.1 Details when placing an Order: When placing an Order you must inform us if you have any doubt about whether our delivery lorry will be able to access the place of delivery you stipulate in that Order due to, for example, size or weight restrictions. If we cannot access any place of delivery stipulated in an Order due to the size of our delivery lorry (usually anything up to an 18 tonne lorry) or the access to the property being a private road, to the extent permitted by law, we shall not be liable to you for any losses, liabilities, costs, damages, charges or expenses arising out of:
4.1.1 non-delivery of any Product in that Order; or
4.1.2 delivery of that Product at a place different to the place of delivery stipulated in the Order.
4.2 Delivery: Our deliveries are kerbside only. We advise that you should have help to unload the goods from the pallet. Any of our deliveries could be made by anything up to an 18-tonne lorry, so it is assumed that the delivery address will be easily accessible. If the delivery address is situated on a private road or with private access, please inform us at the time of order as some couriers will not take their vehicles on private roads or access areas. If access is likely to be a problem, please inform us at the time of order to discuss alternative delivery options.
4.3 Timeframe: We aim to deliver within the timeframe indicated by us at the time of your Order (and updated in the Confirmation of Order), which will be within 30 days of your Order, but we cannot promise an exact date at the time an Order is made or a Confirmation of Order is sent. When placing an Order you can provide a preferred delivery date, and, once the Confirmation of Order has been sent, we will email you either to confirm that your preferred date is possible or to confirm an alternative date. We always aim to deliver any products in an Order in accordance with any confirmed delivery date we have given for that Order but we cannot guarantee any firm delivery date and we suggest that, if you require an installation specialist to install any Product, that you make arrangements for that installation only once you have received delivery of any relevant Product.
4.4 Delivery times and notifications: We aim to deliver between 8am and 6pm on Business Days. However, for light parcels we cannot provide a specific time estimate for delivery.
4.5 If we can’t meet an estimated delivery date: We aim to let you know if we expect that we cannot meet any estimated delivery date but, to the extent permitted by law, we are not liable to you for any losses, liabilities, costs, damages, charges or expenses arising out of late delivery.
4.6 Suspension of supply: We reserve the right to suspend the supply of any Product to enable us to deal with any technical problems, make any changes to the Product, comply with legal or regulatory requirements or if you fail; to pay in full or we reasonably suspect that your Order is fraudulent.
4.7 Accepting delivery: On delivery of a Product, you must sign for delivery. We cannot leave any Product at a place of delivery stipulated in an Order if you, or someone that you have notified us that you have authorised, is not present to accept delivery. You agree to inspect all Products in the delivery for correct quantities and any obvious faults, defects or damage before signing for delivery. If any Product does have an obvious fault, defect or damage on delivery, you must stipulate that the Product is faulty, defective or damaged when you sign for delivery. If you fail to stipulate this, it will mean that we cannot replace the faulty, defective or damaged Product if you later claim it was one of these. You need to keep your receipt for delivered Products in case of future discussions with us about anything. You will be required to produce photographic evidence of any fault, defect or damage.
4.8 Impossible delivery: If delivery is delayed through your unreasonable refusal to accept delivery or if you are not at the place of delivery stipulated in your Order on the delivery date that we agree with you, if you refuse to sign for the delivery of the Product on delivery or if you do not (within two weeks of our first attempt to deliver the Product to you) accept delivery, then:
4.8.1 we may leave a card giving instructions on re-delivery from the carrier. We will also pass on any costs incurred by us as a consequence of no-one being available to take delivery and require such costs to be paid by you prior to redelivery; and/or
4.8.2 we may (without affecting any other right or remedy available to us) do either or both of the following:
(a) charge you for our reasonable storage fee and other costs reasonably incurred by us, including, but not limited to, redelivery costs and require such costs to be paid by you prior to redelivery; and
(b) no longer make any Product for which delivery was not possible available for delivery or collection and we will notify you that we are immediately cancelling the Contract, in which case we will refund to you any money already paid to us under the Contract, less our reasonable administration charges and costs (including for attempting to deliver and then returning to us any relevant Product).
4.9 Time limit to claim for faulty, defective or damaged Products: You must submit any claim to us for any faulty, defective or damaged Product within 30 days following delivery of that Product to you. Please notify such claims to
cs@renovatedirect.co.uk by email or by using the Live Chat function on our Site.
If you do report a faulty, defective or damaged product to us, paragraph 7 applies.
4.10 Packaging: We deliver in our standard packaging. Any special packaging you may request is subject to additional charges. It is your responsibility to dispose of all packaging (such as pallets, packaging etc.).
4.11 Risk: All risk in any Product passes to you on delivery of it, except that if you request delivery via a particular courier or other third party delivery, risk passes at the date when we transfer the relevant Product to such courier or third party. From the time when risk passes to you, we are not be liable for loss, damage or destruction of the Product.
4.12 Care when opening: You must take care when opening any Product so as not to damage it, particularly when using any sharp instruments.
4.13 When you own a Product: You shall own a Product which we deliver to fulfil an Order on the later of when we deliver it to you and when we receive payment in full for the Product (including VAT and delivery charges).

5.1 Samples: Any samples are provided for guidance only. Samples of a Product may differ because a Product is natural and no two samples of the same Product will be identical.
5.2 Colouring: The colouring of any Product as shown on the Site may vary from the Product delivered due to limitations in the display capabilities of software or hardware used to access the Site. This will not happen in any material way however.

6. RETURNING THE PRODUCT WITHOUT FAULT
6.1 Not affecting your consumer legal rights: The rights and remedies in a contract and in these terms do not affect your consumer legal rights if you are a consumer, under which you may have the right to insist that goods that you buy from businesses must correspond with their description, be fit for their purpose and be of a satisfactory quality.

In this case, you will receive a full refund of the price paid for the Products under that Contract in accordance with our refunds policy (set out in paragraph 8 below). However, you will be liable for the costs of returning the Products to us. Details of this right of cancellation, and an explanation of how to exercise it, are provided in the Confirmation of Order.
6.4 30 day right to cancel for any Products: If you want to cancel a Contract and return the Products under it to us for any reason which is not covered by paragraph 6.3, (except for faulty Products because your rights for that are covered by paragraph 7) then you may cancel that Contract at any time until 30 days after delivery of the Products under it, beginning on the day after you received the Products. In this case, you will receive a full refund of the price paid for the Products under that Contract (but not the cost of delivery of the Products to you for which you will be liable) in accordance with our refunds policy (set out in paragraph 8 below). You will also be liable for the costs of returning the Products to us.

14.2 When notices are effective: Any notice given by post shall be deemed to have been served 2 Business Days after it has been posted. Any notice given by email shall be deemed to have been served when the email has been proved to be received by the recipient’s server. In proving that service it is sufficient to prove that the letter was properly addressed or numbered and, as the case may be, posted as a prepaid or recorded delivery letter or despatched.

15.2 Non-waiver of rights: If we do not insist immediately that you do anything you are required to do under a Contract or these Terms, or if we delay in taking steps against you in respect of your breaking a Contract or these Terms, that will not mean that you do not have to do those things and it will not prevent us taking steps against you at a later date.

If you are not happy with how we have handled any complaint, you may want to contact the alternative dispute resolution provider we use. You can submit a complaint to The Retail Ombudsman via their website at http://www.theretailombudsman.org.uk. The Retail Ombudsman will not charge you for making a complaint and if you are not satisfied with the outcome you can still bring legal proceedings. In addition, please note that disputes may be submitted for online resolution to the European Commission Online Dispute Resolution platform.
