In the unlikely event that you have not received all the goods within the stated delivery time, you must notify us immediately. You must not schedule or commence any installation work until after you have received your order and checked all the goods for any defects or missing parts.

Availability

Cancellation & Returns

4.1 You may cancel your order by giving us notice of cancellation within 30 days of the date of delivery to you or collection from a trade counter.

If you are cancelling because of any problem with the goods, please notify us of the problem at the time of cancellation.
