4.1 We will take all reasonable care to ensure that all details, descriptions and prices of products appearing on the website are correct at the time when the relevant information was entered onto the system. Although we aim to keep the website as up to date as possible, the information including Product Descriptions appearing on this website at a particular time may not always reflect the position exactly at the moment you place an order. All sizes and measurements are approximated; however, we do try to make sure that they are as accurate as possible.

4.2 Products may vary slightly from their pictures. The images of the products on our website are for illustrative purposes only. We endeavour to display as accurately as possible the colours of our products on our website, however, as different computers display colour tones differently, we cannot guarantee the complete accuracy of the pictures or photographs that are shown.

If we discover an error in the price of goods you have ordered we will inform you as soon as possible and give you the option of reconfirming your order at the correct price or cancelling it.

Please also ensure the person at your property has all your order details, in particular details of any extras you have paid for, as our drivers will be guided by them during the delivery; Unfortunately, we cannot provide a refund for any services refused at the time of delivery, as these are arranged and paid for in advance.
