Delivery and Returns

Our fully trained team are available to answer your questions on our products, their installation and maintenance. Please scroll through our Customer Care section to find out more about; typical lead times, surface, furniture and accessories delivery information and refunds. If you have any further questions please contact Customer Services or call on +44 (0)1423 400 200.

Typical Lead Times

This sets out the indicative lead time from order receipt.

For each product the typical lead time varies. For our surface ranges that we don’t currently stock, this is designed as a guide on the time taken from the point of order to when we receive the goods into our warehouse in Harrogate. Once the goods have been received into Harrogate the typical delivery options and timings are applicable.

For furniture pieces, our items are made to order so this time frame is an indication of the level of craftsmanship, care and attention that goes into each and every furniture piece that we make.

Typical Lead Times are a guide only and cannot be taken as a guarantee on delivery dates and times as these may be affected by circumstances outside our control.

If you are concerned about timings on your order, please email our Customer Services team or phone +44 (0)1423 400 200.

Surface Delivery
Surfaces – Standard Delivery

For customers who order 100 SQM/1076 SQFT or over we will contact you directly either by phone or email on receipt of your order, to arrange delivery. This is to ensure our delivery vehicles have suitable access on site.

For customers who order under 100 SQM/1076 SQFT surfaces are split between natural stone tiles and porcelain and delivered within 4-5 working days of receipt of order for stocked products or within 4-5 days of us receiving the goods into our warehouse.

Our surface orders are packed in wooden crates and charged at a pallet rate.

Calculating Delivery Costs

We are able to offer a 4-5 working day delivery service for our surfaces with an additional charge of £50 per pallet for delivery on a Saturday. The price is worked out based on the number of pallets and the postcode zone of the delivery address.

Surfaces – Delivery Method

All surface orders are delivered on a large lorry. Please note it is important, therefore, that any restricted access details are advised prior to your order being placed. If you are concerned about access please contact our customer services team on + 44 (0)1423 400 200.

Your order will be placed, at the driver’s discretion, to the nearest safest point to the property; this may be on the drive or at the curb side. The delivery driver cannot help handle the goods, so it is essential for you to arrange for a responsible individual to be present to receive the order.

We will endeavour to deliver at the agreed time however, we cannot guarantee delivery dates and times as these may be affected by circumstances outside our control. For this reason we are unable to accept responsibility for lost working time and recommend goods are ordered well in advance of any project start dates.

If we are unable to gain access to the agreed delivery address we will return the goods to our warehouse and make contact with you to re-arrange delivery. Unfortunately in these circumstances we will have to charge you a further delivery fee.

We carry the risk of loss or damage to the products until you sign for them upon receipt, we therefore recommend that you inspect the product thoroughly at this time to ensure you are happy that the goods have not been damaged in transit and all items are present. Goods identified as damaged on delivery will be taken away at that point.

Care needs to be taken when unpacking all stone tiles as spacers may need to be removed from the packaging before the tiles are lifted out. Tiles should always be stacked and stored vertically (on edge) but not on a hard surface as this causes unnecessary edge chipping.

Surfaces – Delivery Restrictions
