The Legal Bit

We hate small print and terms and conditions as much as you. However, there are some important things that we need to tell you and are required to tell you about that relate to any order that you place with us. We have tried to make them as clear as possible but if you have any queries, please do not hesitate to contact us.
  1. Our contract with you

    • Placing an order. You place an order with us by ordering online via our online checkout process, or by placing an order over the telephone. As part of the checkout process, you will be given the opportunity to check your order and correct any errors. Its simple to order online. Simply select your required product, select the optional upgrade options, check the technical specifications for product sizes and materials and when you are happy then proceed to the checkout by pressing “buy now”. You will be prompted with a sidebar to check your options. You'll be prompted to confirm acceptance of these terms and then move on to payment.
    • Payment. All orders must be paid in full before despatch. Payment can be made by using the various methods shown in the checkout process. Payment is taken when we receive your order. On-line and telephone order payments are processed via our SSL (Secure Socket Layer) secure payment system.
    • Paying by finance? You do have the ability to use finance to purchase products and services from us. We do not provide finance ourselves but will refer you to a third party finance company if you are looking to fund the cost of your purchase. This is an online application at an external website. Any data provided to the finance company as part of any application is not shared with us. Once you complete their application, the finance company will make the decision on whether you are eligible or not, by their criteria, for a loan provided by them to you. We are not involved in that decision, the criteria used by them or any contract/finance that they offer to you. All queries in relation to finance should be directed to the finance company as we are unable to help. The finance company is then responsible to us for payment of your order. You pay the finance company in accordance to your agreement with them. All other terms and conditions set out apply to your order.
    • How we will accept your order. We will send you an order acknowledgement detailing that we have received your order and the products you have ordered. We will confirm acceptance of your order via email at which point a contract will be formed between us. Our acceptance of your order will take place when we email you to accept it, at which point a contract will come into existence between you and us.
    • If we cannot accept your order. If we are unable to accept your order, we will inform you of this and will not charge you for the product/we will refund you. This might be because the product is out of stock, because of unexpected limits on our resources which we could not reasonably plan for, because a credit reference we have obtained for you does not meet our minimum requirements, because we have identified an error in the price or description of the product or because we are unable to meet a delivery deadline you have specified.
    • Your order number. We will assign an order number to your order and tell you what it is when we accept your order. It will help us if you can tell us the order number whenever you contact us about your order.
    • We only sell to the UK. Our website is solely for the promotion of our products in the UK. Unfortunately, we do not accept orders from addresses outside the UK. Please call and speak to us if you are overseas or not resident in mainland UK.
  1. Our products and looking after them

    • Products may vary slightly from their pictures. The images of the products on our website are for illustrative purposes only. Although we have made every effort to display the colours accurately, we cannot guarantee that a device's display of the colours accurately reflects the colour of the products. Your product may vary slightly from those images
    • The nature of Wood. Wood is a natural material and carries unique characteristics. This results in no two pieces being the same in appearance. Whilst we endeavour to make sure all sections are as equal to one another as possible, it’s inevitable there may be misalignment from time to time. This is normally caused by thermal expansion/contraction and with the panels made in different batches, this cannot be remedied. In action to this, we supply cover strips which take the eye away from cladding that doesn’t match perfectly.
    • How the product may change over time. Wood may contain knots and other small details in which are formed throughout the life of the product. These are simply aesthetic and will not affect the structure of the building in any way. These can simply be filled with an expandable filler purchased from a DIY store. You will find that this settles after the first few years as the movement of the material will become less frequent as it adapts to the elements.
    • Our designs and the materials we use. We use shiplap design to deter water away from the building and allow for the expansion and contraction of wood. This also helps prevent wooden panels from warping, bowing and splitting. Whilst water should not enter the building we cannot 100% guarantee this within the movement of the material. Therefore it is recommended that guttering is fitted at the stage of assembly to further reduce this.
    • Door and window adjustments. Adjustments to doors or windows may be required from time to time. This is simply due to the expansion and contraction of the material during seasons however over time this will settle.
  1. Planning Permission & Building Regulations

    We do not offer legal advice and it is essential that you seek independent advice or speak to your local planning authority for guidance BEFORE placing the order.
    • Do I need planning permission? Most of our buildings are designed so that planning permission is not required. However, planning permission is your responsibility and we do not accept liability for a failure by you to obtain the right planning approval for your area if it is required.
    • Do I need building regulations approval? Our buildings are designed so that planning approval is not required, however, they are not designed for domestic living spaces and do not comply with building regulations. You will need to seek building regulations approval for this.

      You may not require planning permission, however, depending upon the use of your building and what you decide to install in it (for example electrical connections), you may require you to seek building regulations approval. In particular, almost all electrical work must be undertaken by a suitably qualified electrician who should be consulted if you want to install electrics in your building.
  1. Our Anti Rot Guarantees

    Our buildings come with two types of anti-rot guarantees, 15 years which covers our cedar and composite cladding, and 25 years for our pressure treated buildings. This is providing that they comply with our specific guidelines that will ensure your product qualifies. The guarantee doesn’t cover any splits or warping that can occur naturally over time or any other damage caused to the building that is not due to general rot or decay. For your building to comply, a pressure treated building must be treated within 1 month of delivery to maintain the guarantee and it must be fully treated with an appropriate high-quality wood preservative. The wood preservative must also be applied annually where proof of purchase of the annual treatment must be shown. For our pressure treated buildings, if any of the timber is cut, drilled, or notched during assembly, then it must be sealed with an approved cut-end treatment and treated annually where proof of purchase of the treatment must be shown. For our composite timber buildings, the building must also be treated annually with a suitable high-quality wood preservative, which would need to be applied to the composite timber cladding and also any untreated or pressure treated timber parts. The treatment will need to be applied annually and proof of purchase of the annual treatment must be shown. To ensure that the timber is not exposed to any moisture buildup inside the building, all glazing must be fully sealed, inside and out, with silicone or an appropriate watertight sealant. If our uPVC upgrade has been purchased, then the uPVC units must also be fully sealed with silicone or an appropriate watertight sealant on the inside and out to ensure that the building is fully weatherproof.

    The roof trusses supplied with your building come untreated and are not covered by the anti-rot guarantee. The OSB (Orientated Strand Board) material used in our OSB roofs and OSB floors is not pressure treated and is not covered by our anti-rot guarantee. Our OSB material is supplied without any form of treatment and it is the responsibility of the customer to ensure that the OSB material is protected from dampness and moisture buildup to keep the building maintained. Any faults, damage, deterioration, or reduced structural integrity of the building as a result of any rot, decay, or moisture buildup from the OSB material is not

    covered by the anti-rot guarantee and product warranty. The OSB roof sheets must not become exposed to the elements due to not keeping the building maintained, not following the assembly instructions correctly, or any misuse of the building. Any damage, deterioration, or faults to the OSB material and building as a result of the above, is not covered by the anti-rot guarantee. The roof covering material must be maintained and kept weatherproof to protect the OSB roof from being exposed. The OSB floor must also not be exposed to damp weather for any extended periods other than those that are necessary for the everyday use of the building to prevent any moisture buildup, rot, and decay. Adequate storage used inside the building must not retain moisture, due to its material or contents to prevent any moisture buildup. Any other contents of the building must not retain moisture to prevent damage to the OSB material. Any damage, rot, and decay caused by the buildup of moisture from the contents of the building will void the product warranty and is not covered by the anti-rot guarantee. Our 25 and 15-year anti-rot guarantees will also be voided if any of the following are not adhered to.

    • The building must be assembled on a firm and level base made from a suitable material that has adequate drainage to prevent any moisture buildup and pooling of water.
    • It must be assembled correctly according to the assembly instructions. Please contact our product support team for any advice or assistance if you are unsure to help prevent any damage to your building.
    • It must not be modified or customised in any way as this could affect the integrity of the structure and could cause moisture ingress.
    • The building must have had roof felting or a suitable roof covering material applied correctly that is not damaged that could allow any moisture into the building.
    • Has not been in contact with an exterior wall or trees that may allow any moisture to penetrate the timber.
    • The building must have been installed with adequate clearance on all sides to allow for annual treatment to be applied and to prevent any moisture buildup.
    • The person claiming is the original purchaser of the building.

    Due to the nature of the timber used in the manufacture of the building, there are characteristics that are not covered by the guarantee as minor defects will occur naturally in the material and are also due to changes in the external environment and won’t affect the integrity of the building. These are:

    • Splits in the timber that may occur naturally or due to damage from the assembly.
    • Warping of the timber, as this will occur naturally over time.
    • Chips in the timber from knot holes, as these can be repaired easily using non-toxic wood glue.
    • Sap residue from timber as this occurs naturally.
    • Colouration of the timber, where pressure treated timber will slightly change in colour over time.
    • Gaps caused by the expansion and contraction of the timber throughout the seasons. In hotter months the timber will contract as its moisture content decreases, which can leave small gaps. When the timber expands in the wetter months any gaps will close back up again.

    Any claims on faults upon inspection of the delivery of your building must be reported immediately before completion of the building assembly to allow the replacement of parts or any missing items to be arranged to remedy any issues. The building must also be checked regularly for debris and general maintenance made of the location. Any external changes around the building’s location must be kept within the guidelines as this could cause damage to the building. The minimum clearance must also be kept around the building to remain compliant with the guarantee terms.

    • Types of Guarantee. We pride our products and offer two types of Anti-Rot Guarantees. Any product covered with the Anti-Rot Guarantee will display one of the following logos showing the length of guarantee that applies.
    • 10 year warranty applies to Standard “dip” treated products
    • 15 Year Warranty applies to Composite Timber and also Cedar Products
    • 25 Year Warranty applies to Pressure Treated Products
    • Anti-Rot treatments. Our anti-rot protection processes guard against fungal decay and insect attack. However, wood is a natural product and the guarantee does not cover the movement, warping, or splitting of timber products over time.
    • Maintaining the validity of your guarantee. To ensure that your guarantee remains valid, you must:
      • The product build instructions which are supplied with each building should be adhered to comply with the conditions of the guarantee;
      • If any part of pre-treated timber is cut, notched, or drilled then an approved cut-end treatment should be applied to comply with the conditions of the guarantee;
      • A suitable timber treatment should be applied to pressure treated products at the time of the first build and then applied every 12 months to maintain the appearance of the timber and to comply with the conditions of the guarantee.
      • Pressure treated products are treated at our facility prior to delivery and will require treating annually after assembly with suitable exterior wood treatment. The application and/or mixing guidelines provided by the manufacturer of the timber treatment should be followed.
    • Actions by you that would mean your guarantee is invalid. The guarantee is invalid if:
      • If the building has been customised or modified in any way this includes but is not limited to electrical adaptations, the fixing of personal items or furniture to the inside of the building or any exterior adaptations;
      • The person claiming is not the original purchaser of the building;
      • The building has not been treated annually or as per the treatment manufacturer's instructions;
      • The building has not been erected on a suitable sized flat, solid level concrete/slab base or placed on pressure treated bearers and it is found to be water/moisture is rising from the base;
      • The building has not been erected, fitted, or installed correctly;
      • In cases of general wear and tear, misuse, or third-party damage;
      • The building is or has been placed without adequate clearance, for the application of the annual treatment, of any obstruction (walls, trees, fences etc) which can allow moisture to penetrate the timber.
      • Any material that is OSB (Oriented strand board) must be protected from the weather as is not a waterproof material;
    • What is not covered under the anti-rot guarantees. The following items are not covered under your guarantee:
      • Warping cracking or splitting is not covered. Warping/cracking or splitting of timber can occur with the product being a natural material.
      • Mineral Felt roofing is the standard option we provide on all of our buildings. In time the felt will deteriorate and need replacing. This can be caused by but is not limited to, weather conditions, movement in the building, and animal damage. We recommend our EPDM Rubber Roof product for lifelong roof cover protection.
      • Felt tiles are a great addition to your building. They increase the aesthetic look of the building. However, adverse weather conditions can cause the tiles to loosen/come out of place.
      • The pressure treatment process offered by us is long-life protection against rot and decay and is not a weatherproof system. Your garden building will require protection from UV light and water penetration, therefore a further preservative treatment is required. We do recommend that a weatherproof coating is applied as soon as possible but no later than 12 weeks after installation and then at regular intervals to increase the life of the building. Please follow the manufacturer’s recommendations as to when to apply the product.
      • Roof Trusses which are supplied untreated.

Product Assembly and Warranty Claims

If there is a future claim on the buildings warranty, for us to be able to check the validity of the claim, we will require photographs of when the building was first assembled at each stage to prove that the building was assembled correctly and in accordance with the building instructions and on a solid level base.

Please find below an instructions checklist to follow for the photographs of each stage in the event of any future product warranty claim.

Assembly Photograph Requirements:
  • Photograph of the build area to show there are no overhanging branches and other debris.

    • Do I need to do anything before you assemble? A level concrete or paved base suitable for the size of the building must be laid ready prior to assembly. (Photographs may be required of the base and a basic diagram of the garden). If on arrival the base is not suitable and the installation is failed, the customer will become liable for the installation service fee which will be 50% of your installation value. The product can be left on site and the customer will be given the option of either assembling the building themselves or a return visit can be arranged subject to payment of an additional installation service however in this instance only 50% of the installation value will be refunded.
    • Access to the assembly location. It is your responsibility to provide free and unobstructed access for product delivery and entry to the fitting site. We recommend that panel sizes are checked to allow access through archways and doors. There may be an additional charge if the building is to be assembled a large distance from where it has been delivered.
    • What's not included. The installation service does not include the fitting of any optional extras or other products bought at the time or after the order. It is advised that you are present at the time of fitting but not essential, however, we would require written permission to deliver and install in your absence along with detailed instructions of fitting requirements. Please be aware that you will be responsible for disposing of any leftover felt, off cuts of wood etc.

We endeavour to deliver all goods within 30 days, but we do not accept liability whatsoever for any failure to deliver within that time and offer no compensation for failure to deliver within any given time scale. If we are unable to deliver within this time scale then we will only proceed with your order if you agree to the longer delivery period following our contact with you or you do not contact us to confirm otherwise. We are unable to notify you of specific delivery time slots.
  • Problems with a delivery? Whilst we agree to use all reasonable endeavours to ensure that delivery is made around the delivery lead time advertised, you acknowledge that actual delivery is often via third party suppliers and carriers and can therefore be beyond our reasonable control. Incorrect personal details may also lead to problems or delays in delivery, so before placing your order, please ensure that you have included the full delivery address details, including an accurate postcode of the delivery address and your daytime contact telephone number(s) and an up to date e-mail address so that we can notify you in the event of a delivery problem. If you are not going to be in to accept delivery and you wish the goods to be left please notify us before delivery in writing ( post, email or fax ) or leave a signed note on your door to this effect.
  • Is delivery to your home or the delivery address difficult or restricted? Our delivery service is kerb side only. If you have any special requirements or if access is difficult, please contact 01777 802300. If access for delivery is restricted please ensure that you inform us when placing your order or in all circumstances prior to despatch of the goods. Failure to do so will result in the delivery being treated as a failed delivery if access is unavailable and may result in a re-delivery charge being applied.
  • What if I miss the delivery? If you miss the delivery of your order, you may incur a re-delivery charge as we have met our original delivery obligation with our first attempted delivery. All delivery times quoted on the product pages and on our web site are estimated delivery times only and cannot be guaranteed. Re delivery charges are variable and will be calculated taking into account geographical location and product/service ordered. You will be contacted by our Care team to inform you should any re-delivery charges be incurred.

  • If you refuse the delivery. If a delivery is refused at the delivery address and re-requested for another date, we may charge for the second delivery. If you refuse to accept an item that is being delivered for any reason you must notify us immediately with the reason for [email protected]. We will not be held responsible for loss of earnings due to failed or delayed delivery.
  • Delivery Surcharge Fees. The prices stated on this website include the cost of carriage to most UK postcode districts. However, we incur additional costs for delivery of certain products to some postcodes, these being remote areas. If we do incur additional costs we reserve the right to levy the additional charge and increase our lead times, which would also be necessary as specialist hauliers may need to be engaged. If you have placed your order on line and an additional delivery surcharge is required, your order will be placed on hold and we will contact you to notify you of the additional charge. You can then choose to continue with your order by paying the additional delivery charge or you may cancel your order at that point. We are unable to deliver some of our products to certain postcodes.
  • Order tracking. You can track your order at any time during the order process. To track your order contact our logistics team by emailing us at [email protected] or telephoning us on 01777 802300 quoting your order reference number.
  • Receiving Your Delivery. Please note that we operate a policy of kerbside delivery only. We cannot take the building to the required location. Delivery will be deemed as successfully made once the product has arrived at the address specified so long as the product has been signed for or a signed note by the buyer has been left to say that the goods can be left unsigned for. Where goods are required to be signed for, these must be signed for by an adult aged 18 years or more. Whilst we make every effort to handle the buildings ourselves, we may on occasion need to ask for assistance. If this will be required you, will be notified before delivery.
  • Products delivered damaged. Products are your responsibility once they have been received by you, your agent or the intended recipient or a signed note has been left indicating that delivery can be left unattended. We may not accept claims for damaged goods if the courier has obtained a clean signature for delivery. Photographic images are taken when loading the vehicle and again when delivering to your address. Placing an order means acceptance of these terms and conditions and authorisation for our delivery teams to take photographic evidence of delivery. These images are used for internal use only unless specified in which case we will contact you for approval. If more than 48 hours after delivery have passed please telephone us on 01777 802300 or email [email protected]. If there is cause for concern or any other problems identified, such as damaged parts, on or after delivery, do not attempt assembly. Please telephone our care team on 01777 802300 and ask for further advice.
  • We are not responsible for delays outside our control. If our supply of the products is delayed by an event outside our control then we will contact you as soon as possible to let you know and we will take steps to minimise the effect of the delay. Provided we do this we will not be liable for delays caused by the event, but if there is a risk of substantial delay you may contact us to end the contract and receive a refund for any products you have paid for but not received.
  1. Your rights to end the contract

    • You can always end your contract with us. Your rights when you end the contract will depend on what you have bought, whether there is anything wrong with it, how we are performing, when you decide to end the contract and whether you are a consumer or business customer:
      • If what you have bought is faulty or misdescribed you may have a legal right to end the contract (or to get the product repaired or replaced or a service re-performed or to get some or all of your money back), see clause 15 if you are a consumer and clause 16 if you are a business;
      • If you want to end the contract because of something we have done or have told you we are going to do, see clause 2;
      • If you are a consumer and have just changed your mind about the product, see clause 3. You may be able to get a refund if you are within the cooling-off period, but this may be subject to deductions [and you will have to pay the costs of return of any goods];
      • In all other cases (if we are not at fault and you are not a consumer exercising your right to change your mind), see clause 6.
    • Ending the contract because of something we have done or are going to do. If you are ending a contract for a reason set out at (a) to (e) below the contract will end immediately and we will refund you in full for any products which have not been provided and you may also be entitled to compensation. The reasons are:
      • we have told you about an upcoming change to the product or these terms which you do not agree to (see clause 2);
