If you require us to return and erect the building for you, an extra charge will be levied at a rate of £15.00 per 15 minutes of labour .  If you have a problem with your site, or have any doubts about levelling, please let us know well in advance.

 

SITE FOR DELIVERY
Please ensure that there is someone available to show us where you would like your shed positioned.
If no-one can be available, please provide us with a site plan prior to the delivery date.
If we do not receive a site plan and your site is not absolutely evident, we shall leave the building for you to assemble yourself. If we need to return to assemble the building for you, an extra charge will be levied, payable in advance and at a minimum of £50.00 .

The Buyer agrees that prior to the payment of the whole price of the Goods, the Seller may at any time enter upon the Buyer`s premises or premises under the Buyer`s control or to which the Buyer has right of access, for the purpose of inspection, repossession and removal of Goods therefrom, and that prior to such payment the Buyer shall keep the Goods in good and substantial repair and condition and separate and identifiable for the aforementioned purposes.
