RETURNS & REFUND POLICY
General
We reserve the right to change these Terms and Conditions at any time. It is your responsibility to read the Terms and Conditions on each occasion that you use this website, and your continued use of the website shall signify your acceptance to be bound by the latest Terms and Conditions.
Order Process
All orders that you place with Southern Artificial Grass via the website or over the phone will be subject to acceptance in accordance with these Terms and Conditions.
Terms and Conditions
When you place an order, you are offering to buy the product(s) from us and we will send you an order acknowledgement. However, your order will only be accepted by us once your product(s) have been delivered to you. Until then we can decline to supply the goods – we will try to ensure that this never happens, however, we do reserve the right not to fulfil your order for any reason if, for example, we have made an error on the price or similar or we simply can’t get hold of the item you need. In the event of these circumstances, we will refund you the price you’ve paid to us. Please note that we reserve the right not to accept an order for any reason and we won’t be liable to you or anyone else in these circumstances.
Sometimes the product specifications from the manufacturer may change, in which case we will do our best to offer you a similar alternative. We may experience problems with the supply of certain products and may therefore supply a substitute of the same or better quality at the same price. If you are not happy with the replacement or substitute you can return it in accordance with our 14-day money back guarantee. Where applicable, you may cancel your order in accordance with your rights under the Distance Selling Regulations.
Cancellations
If you wish to cancel your order and the goods have not been delivered or cut, you can do so within 24 hours of placing the order by contacting us at info@southernartificialgrass.co.uk or by calling 02393 878250.
However, if an order has already been cut and or shipped, we will require you to pay the associated costs of returning the item to us before we will refund the purchase.
Damaged or Faulty Products
In the unlikely event that you receive faulty or damaged goods, please contact us within 14 days of your original order date, prior to cutting and/or fitting or the attempted fitting. We will then arrange for the faulty or damaged goods to be collected and replaced. If any ordered item is removed from its original condition (for example cut/fitted/installed or attempted install) we will be unable to replace or give a full refund for the item(s)
Please note that products may have a slight colour variation due to the product being manufactured in batches and this is not a fault
You have the right to return any product(s) you have purchased within 14 days of the original purchase date. Should you wish to return the products you’ve had delivered, you will be charged a restocking fee of 30% of the returned product(s) value and you will need to arrange the return of the grass yourself
The product(s) should be returned unused, prior to cutting and/or fitting or the attempted fitting complete with all packaging. Returned products will be checked upon arrival and we’ll be in touch to confirm the product’s condition. Additional fees may apply for products returned in a damaged condition that hasn’t been noted to us in advance and in accordance with this policy.
To return a product, please email us at info@southernartificialgrass.co.uk or by calling 02393 878250.
General Delivery Information
All orders are processed and shipped in the order that they are received. Standard delivery time is 3 to 7 working days. We make every effort to deliver goods within the estimated timescales, however delays are occasionally inevitable due to unforeseen factors and may increase around holidays and peak shipping seasons. We are under no liability for any delay or failure to deliver the products within the estimated timescales.
We only offer a curb side delivery, our 1-man delivery service is completed by a 3rd Party. They are unable to assist or move the product into your home. If you live in higher rise accommodation please be aware that the carriers will only deliver to the ground floor. We do not offer upstairs deliveries due to the health and safety risk. Please note that in some circumstances an item being delivered may be heavier than the driver is able to lift. In these cases it is a customer’s responsibility to ensure that they have sufficient equipment and personnel available at the point of delivery to assist with unloading of the vehicle or, alternatively be able to provide smaller cut down sizes for the product ordered that can be delivered to the kerbside and unloaded without assistance.
Risk of loss and damage of products passes to you on the date when the products are delivered or the date that the first delivery is attempted by us
Please note we strongly advise that you do not book your fitter or landscaper until you have received and checked your order, as we are not liable for any installation costs or lost wages.
If you need your order to be shipped to an alternative address to the billing address, please specify during the checkout process when the option is available. Although we will make every effort to amend mistaken delivery addresses after the order has been placed, we cannot be held responsible for late deliveries if the incorrect address has been specified in the checkout by the customer.
Sale Items
Only regular priced items may be refunded. Sale items cannot be refunded.
Collection
Should you wish to collect your order directly from us rather than having it delivered please call us on 02393 878250 to place your order over the phone.
Payment
We take payment from your preferred payment method as outlined on our website and at the time of placing your order. Goods are subject to availability. In the event that we are unable to supply the goods ordered, we will inform you of this as soon as possible. A full refund will be given where you have already paid for the goods. Additional Terms and Conditions for payments made by PayPal can be found at www.paypal.co.uk
The price you pay is the price displayed on the product page of this website for your specified size(s) at the time we receive your order. While we try and ensure that all prices on our website are accurate, errors may occur. 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. If we are unable to contact you we will treat the order as cancelled. If you cancel and you have already paid for the goods, you will receive a full refund.
All prices are shown in £ sterling and include VAT (where applicable) at the current rates
Shipping Charges
Shipping charges will be calculated at checkout.
Roll Cutting
Orders placed can be cut from different rolls and can therefore differ slightly in their colour variation. If you require more than 1 cut that will be joined, please inform us upon placing your order and we will make every effort to ensure cuts are taken from the same roll where possible.
Roll Sizing
The width of your grass will always be specified during the selection process, however on rare occasions the manufacturer’s size may vary by a margin of up to approximately +/- 1.25% in width or length. All dimensions are in accordance with British Standards 3665 (1974)
We would always advise customers to take this into account when deciding on the measurements to purchase. We would always advise that if in doubt, buy slightly more than required rather than being disappointed if your order is slightly shorter than required. We cannot be held responsible for orders which are too short or too long within these standard manufacturing tolerances
