Shipping & Returns Policy

Shipping & Packaging

We dispatch all orders within 24 hours or next working day upon receipt of payment.

Postage depends on the weight & location of your order.

By Royal Mail

All orders are sent out through Royal Mail Recorded Delivery or Business Post Courier. All items required a signature on delivery, therefore, we are unable to take instructions such as : " Leave parcel in the porch", "Place it near the bin" or "Put it behind the plant" etc .....

The Royal Mail delivery man will leave a card through your door if you are not in at the time of delivery. Recorded Delivery items are only kept at the main local collection depot for one week, so please ensure you collect the item within this timescale. If it is not collected after 7 days, the item will be returned to us which will incure more postage costs made payable by you to enable us to resend the item to you.

Faulty Goods

If within reasonable time a product is found to be faulty, you will be offered either a refund or replacement.

These goods should be returned to us so that we can submit them to the relevant manufacturers for a manufacturers report. Please contact us by email before returning any item. This will help us to deal with your enquiry promptly. A refund or replacement will only be offered if the manufacturers report deems the item faulty. We will also reimburse you for the cost of returning the item should it be determined as faulty. All returned items are quality checked and acceptance of the returned item as faulty is determined by the result of the manufacturers report.
