Terms & Conditions of Business

Definitions

In these conditions:

‘Buyer’ means the person or business named on the invoice overleaf.

‘Seller’ means the company Enhance listed on the invoice.

‘Goods’ means all items to be supplied and all works to be done by the seller as listed on the invoice.

‘Invoice’ means the buyer’s invoice which specifies that these conditions apply to it.

‘The Contract’ means the arrangement between buyer and seller, comprising the invoice, these conditions and any other terms/documents specified on the invoice.

‘Further Works’ means the arrangement for additional works to be carried out at a later date for which no deposit is taken on the initial invoice.

Formation of Contract

The invoice overleaf constitutes an offer by the customer to enter into a contract upon these terms and conditions of sale. Acceptance occurs and a contract is formed only when the customer signs the invoice overleaf.

Provisions Relating to All Contracts

The following provisions shall apply to all contracts:

All dates and periods of time given or specified by engineers or other representatives, in quotations, on the invoice or in other communications, are estimates only. The seller shall not be held responsible for any delays that are outside the seller’s control. All reasonable measures will be taken by the seller to minimise any such delays.

If, in the course of performing the contract, the engineer discovers a problem on-site which could not reasonably have been foreseen or discovered at the time the contract was formed, for example rotten woodwork, this may increase the price stated by a reasonable amount. If the buyer accepts the increased prices, the buyer shall be bound to pay them in substitution for the prices stated in the initial invoice and shall otherwise remain fully bound by the terms and conditions of the contract.

Notwithstanding the warranty/guarantee, where the seller supplies external timber parts for the buyer, the customer shall be responsible for painting or treating such parts. The seller shall not be responsible for any deterioration of such timber parts if the work is not done by the buyer.

The buyer shall inspect the goods on completion/delivery and shall notify the seller of any defect within 7 days. Failing such notification, this will be deemed as acceptance of delivery.

Payment is taken upon presentation of the invoice to the buyer by the seller, either at completion of the works or agreement on further works. However, in some circumstances pre-arranged payment terms can be agreed. If so, details will be listed on the invoice. All goods remain the property of the seller until full payment is received from the buyer.

Labour Guarantee

All labour carried out while fitting goods supplied by the seller is guaranteed for twelve months from the date of completion on hardware and 5 years on sealed units. Labour is not guaranteed for adjustment of doors, hinges or keeps, or on repairs to existing parts, as the seller cannot reasonably be held responsible for old or faulty third-party equipment and their associated faults, for example door alignments or warping, which may re-occur within the 12-month period.

Materials Guarantee

Only goods supplied and fitted by the seller are guaranteed for a period of 12 months on hardware and 5 years on sealed units.

Guarantee Particulars

This invoice and its reference number is your guarantee certificate and proof of purchase and must be provided or quoted to the seller in order for the guarantees to be honoured. This does not affect your statutory rights.
