Timescales & what to expect

Your delivery day

Delivery hours
8:00am – 5:00pm
(local 2-person service only)
Confirmation
Email the evening before with your order & delivery details
Driver call
Approximately 30 minutes before arrival

Deliveries are typically scheduled as all-day, as the driver will have a full day of deliveries and will plan his own route. On some occasions a time slot or AM/PM window may be offered — if available, this will be confirmed in your pre-delivery email. In some circumstances we may be able to deliver outside standard hours; please contact us to discuss.

Please ensure an adult aged 18 or over is at the delivery address to accept, sign for, and inspect the goods on arrival. If there are any parking restrictions, access difficulties, or anything that may affect delivery, please let us know in advance.

Our delivery team will take every care bringing your appliance into your property. Please ensure they have clear, unobstructed access to where you would like the goods placed, and that any floor surfaces liable to damage are protected. For health and safety reasons, customers are not permitted to assist the delivery team.

If access difficulties prevent delivery inside your property, you can request that items be left outside or in a garage for you to bring in at your own convenience.

We strongly advise against booking kitchen fitters until your new appliance is in your possession and has been inspected. Despite our best efforts, unforeseen circumstances such as traffic, adverse weather, or vehicle breakdowns can occasionally cause delays.

Installation & old appliance removal

Installation & removal

If you have requested collection of your old appliance, our delivery team will remove it at the time of your delivery. Please ensure it is accessible and ready when we arrive — we are unable to make a second collection visit unless we happen to be in the area.

Direct deliveries from manufacturers do not include installation as standard, though this can sometimes be arranged for an additional charge. Please get in touch to discuss your requirements.

Payment security

Delivering to a different address

If you request delivery to an address other than your billing address, we may carry out additional security checks before accepting your order. This is part of our standard procedure to protect you against fraudulent use of your payment details. In some cases this may delay your order slightly, so where possible we suggest arranging delivery to your billing address.

Failed deliveries

Missed or cancelled deliveries

If a pre-arranged delivery cannot be completed because no one is at the address, or if a delivery is cancelled after the goods have been loaded onto the van, a failed delivery charge may apply. Full details are set out in our Terms & Conditions.

Returns & damaged items

Returns, damage & faults

Unwanted items

Under the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013, you have the right to cancel your order within 14 days of receiving your goods. We ask that you notify us within 7 days, and that the item is unused, undamaged, and returned in its original packaging with all accessories included. You have a duty of care for the products while in your possession, and we reserve the right to charge for any damage that occurs during this period. Re-handling charges may apply in some circumstances — see our full Terms & Conditions for details.

Damaged on arrival? Please do not install the item. Contact us within 48 hours with a photograph if possible, and we will arrange a replacement as quickly as we can.

Faulty items

If a fault is discovered within 28 days of delivery, you are entitled to a full refund. You can return the item yourself or request a collection from us. A collection fee may apply depending on the circumstances, though this may be reduced if you are purchasing a replacement from us at the same time.

Delivering Your Goods

Deliveries start at 8am and finish by 5.00pm - (Applies to our 2 person Delivery Service Only)

*In some circumstances we may agree to deliver outside these times. Please contact us for more details.

We always try to make sure your delivery goes as smoothly as possible so if you have any problems relating to your delivery please let us know at your earliest convenience. Please make sure you are ready for your delivery so our team can get your products in as smoothly as possible. The night before your delivery you will receive an email confirming your order and delivery. This usually would be an all-day call as the driver would have a full day’s deliveries and installs to do and will choose his own route. However occasionally you may be able to choose a time slot or AM/PM specific delivery. If this is available, we would confirm in our email. Our driver will normally give you a phone call 30 minutes before arrival. An adult over the age of 18 will need to be at the delivery address to accept, sign for, and inspect the goods when we arrive. The engineers need to gain access to your property so please advise us if there are any parking restrictions, or anything that may prevent us from delivering your product efficiently. If there are access difficulties which prevent our driver from delivering the goods into your property, then you can always request that we drop the items off outside, or into a garage, for you to take inside yourself at your own convenience. Our highly experienced delivery personnel will take as much care as possible to avoid any damage when bringing items into your property. Please make sure our delivery team have unobstructed access to the place you want your goods left, and that any floor surfaces which might be liable to damage are covered. We do not allow customers to assist our delivery team at any time with delivery due to health and safety reasons.

Unwanted Items

Under the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013, you have the right to cancel your order within 14 days after receipt of the products, without giving a reason. All we ask is that you let us know within 7 days, and that the item is 'as new' (you haven't used or installed it), and that it's undamaged and complete with all the accessories and original packaging it arrived with. You have a duty of care while the products are in your possession and we reserve the right to charge you for any damage that may have occurred during this period. We reserve the right to apply re-handling charges for returned items under some circumstances (see full terms and conditions for more information).

Damaged Items

Although rare, from time-to-time items are delivered which have either been damaged somewhere in transit between the factory and your home, or which are faulty in some way. Please don't install any damaged items, but instead contact us within 48 hours, together with a photograph of the damage if possible. We'll arrange for a replacement as soon as possible. We will supply products that are in conformance with this contract and nothing in these terms will affect your legal rights.

Faulty Items

If you discover that the products which you have received are faulty, you should notify us immediately. You have the right to a full refund if a fault is discovered within 28 days of delivery. You have the choice of returning the products via your own means at your own cost, or requesting that we collect them. We may charge a fee for collecting a faulty item dependant upon the circumstances. We may however choose to reduce the collection charge if you are purchasing another product from us.

Unforeseen Circumstances

Despite our best efforts, occasionally there will be extraordinary circumstances which prevent us from turning up on time with your goods. Things such as traffic accidents, extreme weather, vehicle breakdowns or just plain old human error might prevent us from getting the right goods to you, undamaged and on time. This is why we advise our customers not to book kitchen fitters until the goods are in your possession and you've inspected them.

Old Product Collections

If you have requested an old product collection we will remove your old appliance at time of delivery. Unfortunately we cannot make a second call to remove the goods if they are not available unless we are in the area.

We hope that everything goes to plan and you're happy with your new appliance! If there is a problem or you would like to speak to a member of our team then please contact us on 01948 662463 for our whitchurch store or 01691 624427 for our ellesmere store.
