You should not proceed with your purchase until you have read and agreed to these terms and conditions.
These terms relate to internet/telephone sales – showroom sales have a different set of terms and conditions which are given at the time of order in store.

Product Specifications
The majority of our products are sold fully assembled, however on occasions certain pieces will need assembly. Some assembly charges may apply, please check at the time of purchase.
We endeavour to display the colours of our products as accurately as possible, however we cannot guarantee complete accuracy. In addition we cannot guarantee exact colour matching of products ordered at different times.
The specifications of each product are given in as much detail as possible. You are responsible for determining that any order of goods will meet with your requirements and that the fabrics/materials used in production are fit for your purposes.
Sizes
All Sizes are approximate and subject to a tolerance of + or – 1.25% in accordance with ‘’Clause 3 od B.S 3655-1974’’. Please remember to measure all staircases, hallways and door framed in addition to the place where you would like to place the furniture so that you are able to move the item into your home safely and comfortably.
Choosing Upholstered, Cabinet Furniture & Flooring
Price is not always a good indication of performance and what will last a lifetime for some with minimal use, will wear much faster with harsh treatment. Our knowledgeable sales team are always on hand to advise what we consider to be best for your individual needs, but you should consider the following,
Fabric
Covers can be damaged by hard clothing fabrics like denim and light colours may be susceptible to dye transfer from clothing and appear worn quicker. Removable, washable covers are practical but the look of the sofa will never be as smart as a fixed tailored suite. Long pile fabrics such as Chenille, Velvet and Draylon are hard wearing but can develop shading and crushed areas as part of their natural characteristics. Silks and delicate fabrics can crease. Whilst every attempt has been made within the website to portray product colours correctly, variation in production can mislead. Therefore it is advisable to check colours with actual product samples.
Leather
Leather is a natural product with natural characteristics and no two pieces are exactly the same.Your furniture may display brands, scars or creases which are a sign of true authenticity and have no bearing on the quality or durability of the item. Every hide is different and will wear differently over time. Some will develop a patina especially in areas that are most in contact with human skin.
Cabinet Furniture
Real wood products are characterised by imperfections and shade variations. Each piece is unique and continues to evolve and mature with age, affected by its surroundings and external factors such as temperature and humidity. Marble, travertine, stone and granite may all present variations and unique colourings developed during its evolution. Please refer to our care guides and the care guides provided by the manufacturer for the best ways to keep your furniture looking like new. All sizes are approximate.
Floor Condition
Please note you are responsible for your sub-floor surface. We recommend your sub floor to be completely smooth before laying your flooring. Please do speak to us if you need this service before fitting eg Latex Screed or Landscape work (not limited to). We cannot accept any responsibility for the finished appearance of your new flooring where it has been laid over a uneven or sub standard sub-floor.
Flattening, Shading & Pile Reversal
Shading occurs because the pile of the carpet has become crushed, flattened or brushed in a different direction to the natural line of the pile when in its final fitted area during normal wear & traffic. This cannot be prevented, and is not connected to the quality of the flooring, and therefore not considered a manufacturing fault. Complaints caused by this phenomenon will not be accepted.
Please refer to our care guides and the care guides provided by the manufacturer for the best ways to keep your flooring looking like new.
Colour Matching
Carpets & Flooring are produced in batches. Please be aware there may be a colour tolerance from previous order/future orders. Also flooring which is laid with the pile travelling in difference directions, even though from the same batch will not appear to match. Please check Pile direction if a join is required.
Joins & Pattern Repeats
We cannot take responsibly for sizes errors / joining patterns. We recommend you contact your local floor layer / landscaper to measure your flooring and confirm (if applicable) where the join will be and any allowances needed for pattern repeats to match.
