Delivery Point: the place where delivery of the Goods is to take place under condition 5.

1. Making a Purchase
The following terms and conditions apply to all transactions on Bathrooms & Heating Ltd. The placement of an order indicates your acceptance of these terms and conditions. Please read them carefully and print a copy for future use. To order goods through this website you must be at least 18 years of age and able to accept delivery within the UK. We will treat each order for goods as an offer by you to purchase the goods subject to these terms and conditions.
IT IS IMPORTANT THAT YOU DO NOT SCHEDULE OR COMMENCE ANY INSTALLATION WORK UNTIL YOUR GOODS HAVE ARRIVED AND HAVE BEEN CHECKED.
Bathrooms & Heating Ltd are retailers and not technical experts in the field of heating, plumbing or bathroom installation. We supply products based on manufacturer codes being requested by the customer. If you have a technical query or compatibility query it should be directed to the manufacturer or a suitably qualified professional. You agree that any advice given by a member of Bathrooms & Heating Ltd will not be relied upon without verification with a suitably qualified professional and that the customer is responsible for confirming suitability of products and the compatibility of them for the customers intended purpose.
1(a) Order Acceptance and Processing.
Your order is accepted and a contract is formed between Bathrooms & Heating Ltd and you when we despatch the goods you have ordered and not before. A contract is not formed at the point in time that payment has been taken from you by Bathrooms & Heating Ltd, nor at the point in time that you receive an email from Bathrooms & Heating Ltd acknowledging receipt of your order. Until the goods are despatched the order may not be accepted by Bathrooms & Heating Ltd or may be cancelled by you. Any email or other acknowledgment of your order is merely to report that your request has been received and will be looked at, and does not in any way denote acceptance of your order regardless of any wording on the email. Bathrooms & Heating Ltd reserves the right, at any time prior to acceptance, to refuse any order or any part of an order, or to require further or better information to enable it to evaluate and/or process the order.
1(b) Quotes
Any quotation is given on the basis that no Contract shall come into existence until the Company accepts an order from the Buyer by delivering the goods to the address specified by the customer. Any quotation is valid for a period of 30 days only from its date, provided that the Company has not previously withdrawn it.
2. Description of Goods
All images, descriptive matter, specifications and advertising on our site are for the sole purpose of giving an approximate description of the goods. All specifications given to the Customer are approximate and intended as a guide only. We always endeavour to ensure all product descriptions are correct, but advise customers to check with the relevant manufacturers for exact technical specifications and seek technical advice from qualified sources prior to ordering products and any work to be carried out.
2(a) Whilst we make every effort to reproduce the colours of the products correctly slight variations may occur during the print and photography process. The manufacturers also reserve the right to change specifications without notice. We cannot be held responsible for any costs incurred if items received are different to how they are displayed. We would always advise customers to check with the relevant manufacturers for the up to date technical specifications before ordering.
2(b) Please note that certain products such as bathroom furniture may need some alteration to suit specific requirements, such as pipe work, space constraints and designs. Any such alterations are carried out at the customers own risk, and as such the product guarantees may be rendered invalid.
2(c) We advise you to buy tiles and borders from the same range as the tiles may be sourced from different suppliers which may result in a slight variation in size and colour. It is also recommended that the tiles are purchased from the same batch as variations can occur.
2(d) Items which are made from a natural material will all be different. Wood grains will be different across doors and it cannot be guaranteed they will match the picture or each item within the range will be the same.
3. Consumer rights
If you are contracting as a consumer, The Consumer Contracts Regulations give you rights when shopping online, so you’re covered if things go wrong. If you are contracting as a business the Consumer Contract Regulations do not apply and there is not an automatic right of return. However most of our manufacturers will accept a return for 7 days but will charge a restocking fee of up to 25%. Please contact us to confirm
3.1 Your right to cancel
Your right to cancel an order for goods starts the moment you place your order and ends 14 days from the day you receive your goods.
If your order consists of multiple goods, the 14 day period runs from when you get the last of the batch.
This 14 day period is the time you have to decide whether to cancel, you then have a further 14 days to actually send the goods back. The cost of return is payable by the customer.
3.2 Your right to a refund
You should get a refund within 14 days of us getting the goods back. The goods must be in a resellable condition with no labels applied to the manufacturers boxes.
A deduction can be made if the value of the goods has been reduced as a result of you handling the goods more than was necessary.
The extent to which you can handle the goods is the same as it would be if you were assessing them in a shop. Items with a security seal cannot be opened. If a security seal is opened then the item is considered not resellable and cannot be returned.
3.3 Faulty goods
Within 30 days of delivery:
If you receive faulty goods and wish to return them, the Regulations are in addition to your other legal rights. Under the Consumer Rights Act you have a legal right to reject goods that are of unsatisfactory quality, unfit for purpose or not as described, and get a full refund provided the goods when tested show the issue was a manufacturing fault and not a fault caused on installation or misuse.
This right is limited to 30 days from the date you take ownership of your product. After 30 days, you will not be legally entitled to a full refund if your item develops a fault.
Delivery damage is not classed as a manufacturing fault and delivery damage must be reported within 48 hours.
After 30 days:
If you are outside the 30-day right to reject, you have to give the manufacturer one opportunity to repair or replace any goods or digital content which are of unsatisfactory quality, unfit for purpose or not as described.
After 6 months:
If a fault develops after the first six months, the burden is on you to prove that the product was faulty at the time you took ownership of it. In practice, this may require some form of expert report, opinion or evidence of similar problems across the product range.
All guarantees are valid from the date of purchase and are non-transferable. The guarantee extends to replacement parts or equivalent products only and does not include labour or incidental costs incurred.
4. Special Orders
Special orders are hand made to customers own specification and therefore cannot be cancelled. Please bear in mind that as these products are bespoke and delivery times may vary.
5. Payment and Price
We are entitled to make adjustments to the price to take account of any increase in our supplier's prices or the imposition of any taxes or duties, or if due to an error or omission the price published for the goods is wrong whether or not the order has been confirmed. Any price changes will be advised and agreed prior to accepting your order. We ask that all goods be paid for on completion of order and that all funds are cleared prior to delivery.
On the order you must provide us with your exact billing address and telephone number - the address and telephone number your credit card bank has on file for you. Incorrect information will cause a delay in processing your order and may result in cancellation.
In the event that there is a pricing error on the website or in our printed catalogues then Bathrooms & Heating Ltd will not be bound to honour any orders made at that price.
PLEASE NOTE: We only accept Debit/Credit card payments from cards registered to an address within the UK.
6. Delivery Information

6(c) Certain remote areas and offshore areas do not qualify for the standard delivery option and prices may be higher. Additionally delivery times to these postcodes is not covered under the same timescales. There are also certain postcodes we cannot deliver to due to our couriers not covering these areas.
6(d) Bathrooms & Heating Ltd strongly advises you not to book your installers or engage in any preparatory work until full receipt of your goods. If any item is out of stock, a Bathrooms & Heating Ltd sales advisor will email or telephone you to advise you of the expected delivery date.
6(e) If an order cannot be successfully completed due to the purchaser being unable to accept the goods on the date agreed, then a redelivery charge may be applicable. This cost would then be borne by the purchaser. If the goods are cancelled after delivery is missed, the initial delivery costs are still payable.
6(f) If goods are ordered over the weekend or on a bank holiday the order date is taken as the following working day for delivery purposes. If a delivery would normally fall due over the Christmas shut down period the delivery period may be extended to a later date.
6(g) After completion of your order please check your receipt and ensure that all the details are correct.

It is the responsibility of the customer to ensure all goods and quantities are checked within 48 hours to ensure the codes match the delivery note received.

10. Cancellations and Returns
If you are contracting as a consumer, The Consumer Contracts Regulations give you rights when shopping online, so you are covered if things go wrong. If you are contracting as a business the Consumer Contract Regulations do not apply and there is not an automatic right of return. However most of our manufacturers will accept a return for 7 days but will charge a restocking fee of up to 25%. Please contact us to confirm.
In the unlikely event that you are not satisfied with your purchase for any reason, you have the right to cancel your order within 14 working days from the date of delivery. To exercise your right of cancellation you must give written notice by post, or email, giving details of goods ordered and the delivery details. For full details of how to return goods please contact our customer care team on 01543 758395.
All non faulty goods must be returned within 14 working days of you requesting the cancellation. We ask that all goods are returned safely, and in their original packaging. Please note that if collection is requested a collection charge will be implemented for all non faulty returns, and that this must be paid prior to any collection being processed or the amount will be deducted from the refund.

Any returns notified after 14 days but within 28 days may be subject to an additional 25% restocking charge. On cancellation for any reason, you must return the goods at your own cost unless we agree otherwise or we confirm that you may dispose of the goods. Where the goods are being returned because they are faulty, incorrect or damaged then we will meet the cost of the return, but we ask that you allow us to nominate the carrier. Where the items were originally collected in store, the customer is responsible for returning the items to us at the store.
Should you decide to return goods yourself via a courier service of your own choice then please note that this is done entirely at your own risk, and you should always ensure that you obtain proof of postage / delivery for your reference. Always inform our customer care team regarding the details of any goods you intend to return.

It is not unusual to have 2% - 3% of the tile broken to some degree (e.g. chipped edges). Any amount up to 10% is still considered acceptable. These damaged tiles can be used for the cuts you will need to make. If breakage is above 10%, we would ask you to have it noted on the logistics receiving document and take pictures. Please ensure that all goods are checked by yourself and we ask that any problems or damages are reported to our customer care team on 01543 758395 as soon as reasonably possible.

Who do we share this personal data with?
We do not sell any of your personal data to any third party. However, we do have to provide personal data to companies we work with in certain circumstances:

Storage and Retention
We will hold on to the information you provide to us in our secure order database for as long as required to honour any warranty period provided by the manufacturer and keep records of our orders and sales as required by law and for audits.
If you have selected not to receive newsletters or marketing emails we will not contact you with these. In the case of any contact you may have with our Customer Service team we will store the information for as long as is necessary to provide support-related reporting and record keeping.
If reasonably necessary or required to meet legal or regulatory requirements, resolve disputes and issues, support contractual warranty periods, prevent fraud and abuse, or enforce our terms and conditions, we may also keep hold of some of your information as required, even after you have closed your account or it is no longer needed to provide the services to you.
