  1. With all renovations there is always a small risk of incidental damage to surrounding fixtures. While we do all we can to prevent this, there have been occasions where this has been unpreventable. All costs incurred to repair damage will be the responsibility of the client.

  2. The goods remain at the sellers risk until the earlier of delivery to the customer, or title passing to the customer. Once risk passes to the customer, the seller, to the maximum extent permitted by law, excludes all responsibility and liability for the goods at that time under any cause of action whatsoever and howsoever arising including, without limitation, in negligence.

  3. Delivery of goods shall be deemed complete when the seller gives possession of the goods for delivery to the customer, or possession of the goods is given to a general carrier, for delivery to the customer.

If the delivery of the goods or services is delayed for any reason whatsoever, the seller shall not be responsible or liable in any way to the customer or any other party for loss sustained due to such delay. Delayed installation or failure to deliver by a set date does not entitle the customer to cancel any order or part thereof.

  5. The seller shall not be liable to the customer for damage or loss due to failure by the seller to deliver the goods promptly or at all.

 

8. Title

  1. Title in the goods passes to the customer when the customer has made payment in full for all goods supplied by the seller.

The seller shall not be liable for damages, costs or expenses or any other losses suffered by the customer as a result of this action.

 

9. Non Waiver

Failure by the seller to enforce any of the terms & conditions contained in this contract shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any of the rights the seller has in this contract and is not liable for any indirect loss or expense to the customer.
