2 Effect

2.1 Accepting these Terms and Conditions: These Terms and Conditions shall apply to all Orders and to all Contracts made or to be made by us for the sale and supply of Products. When you submit an Order to us, give any delivery instruction or accept delivery of the Products, this shall always constitute your unqualified acceptance of these Terms and Conditions.

3 MAKING ORDERS OF PRODUCTS

3.1 Procedure for making an Order: When making an Order, you must:

3.1.1 if placing the Order by telephone, provide the necessary details requested by our sales team; or
3.1.2 if placing the Order online, follow the instructions on the Site or on the Order Form as to how to make your Order and for making changes to your Order before you submit it to us or the Site.

3.2 Price: Irrespective of any previous price you have seen or heard, once you select a Product that you wish to Order, you will then be shown or told (on the Order Form or the Site or by our sales team) the charges you must pay including VAT, if applicable, and any applicable delivery charges. Unless otherwise stipulated on the Site or the Order Form or agreed in writing by us, all charges are in the currency then in force in England (i.e. currently pounds sterling). Subject to clause 3.11 below, this is the total that you will pay for receipt of the Ordered Product.

3.3 Delivery:

The lead time is usually 2-3 business days. Should standard delivery not be available to your location then your delivery charge will be appropriate to the postcode entered in your delivery address. This charge will be subject to:

3.3.1 the postcode location of the delivery address you provide when placing your Order; and
3.3.2 the weight of the product that you have Ordered.

Delivery to non-UK addresses: Please note that we do accept Orders from registered addresses outside the UK. However, if you want to know the cost of delivery to a non-UK address, you must contact us and ask for the delivery price which will be worked out on a case-by-case basis.

3.4 Collection: You may stipulate when you place your Order that you would like to collect the Product from our warehouse, in which case there will be no delivery charges applicable to your Order.

3.5 Payment methods: You shall pay for the Product in full at the time of Ordering by supplying us with a cheque or your credit or debit card details from a credit or debit card company acceptable to us, which we require in Order to process your Order. Alternatively, you may pay by any method that we have said is acceptable to us, but in any event (unless otherwise agreed by us in writing) we shall not be bound to supply before we have received cleared funds in full. We may need to run credit checks or other anti-fraud checks in certain cases, for example, if the billing address does not match the delivery address – and you agree to cooperate with these checks.

3.6 Permission to pay: If you are asked for details of a payment card or a cheque, you must be fully entitled to use that card and account. The card and account must have sufficient funds to cover the proposed payment to us.

3.7 Correct details: You undertake that all details you provide to us for the purpose of purchasing the Product from us will be correct, that the credit or debit card, or account or other payment method, which you use, is your own and that there are sufficient funds or credit facilities to cover the cost of the Product. We reserve the right to obtain validation of your credit or debit card details before providing you with the Product.

3.8 Being bound by these Terms and Conditions: When you submit an Order to us or the Site, you agree that you do so subject to these Terms and Conditions current at the date you submit your Order. You are responsible for reviewing the latest Terms and Conditions each time you submit your Order.

3.9 Your Order is an offer to buy: Your Order remains valid as an offer until we issue our Confirmation of Order or, if earlier, when we receive your notice revoking your Order.

3.10 Acceptance of your order: We shall not be obliged to supply the Product to you until we have accepted your Order. Unless expressly stating that we accept your Order, an email, letter, fax or other Acknowledgement of your Order by us is purely for information purposes and does not constitute the Confirmation of Order. In that Acknowledgement, we may give you an Order reference number and details of the Product you have ordered. We may, in our discretion, refuse to accept an Order from you for any reason, including unavailability of supplies or we may offer you an alternative Product (in which case we may require you to re-submit your Order first). The Contract shall be formed and we shall be legally bound to supply the Product to you when we accept your Order. Acceptance shall take place when we expressly accept your Order by email, letter or fax to you, in the form of a document called a “Confirmation of Order” stating that we are accepting your Order. Our Confirmation of Order shall be deemed to come into effect when it has been dispatched by us. Without affecting your obligation to pay us earlier, we may send an invoice to you at any time after we have accepted your Order. Until the time when we accept your Order, we reserve the right to refuse to process your Order and you reserve the right to cancel your Order. If we or you have cancelled your Order before we have accepted it, then we will promptly refund any payment already made by you or your credit or debit card company to us for the Order of the Product.

3.11 Mistakes in an Order: If you discover that you have made a mistake with your Order after you have submitted it to us or the Site, please contact Wooji Flooring,  01279 439 892 immediately.

3.12 Accuracy of prices: We try very hard to ensure that the price given to you is accurate, but the price of your Order will need to be validated by us as part of our acceptance procedure. If the price for the Order changes before we accept your Order, we will contact you and ask you to confirm that you wish to proceed at the amended price.

3.13 Cancelling before dispatch: If you wish to cancel your Order after you have received the Confirmation of Order but before the Product has been dispatched to you, we will refund the payment made by you or your credit or debit card company to us, for our sale of the cancelled Product, within 2 Business Days of our receipt of your notice of cancellation. You must send your notice of cancellation us, in each case quoting our order reference number and delivery details.

3.14 A record of your Order: We keep an electronic copy of the contract between us for any Order and we will send you, by email, both the details of your Order and a copy of the current Terms and Conditions that apply to that Order. Of course, you can also find the current Terms and Conditions here at all times and details of all your recent Orders can be found in your Account (accessed with your customer login).

3.15 Fitting Service: Wooji Flooring act as an agent for independent self-employed floor covering installers and can arrange for your order to be fitted where applicable. The fitting work will be carried out under a separate contract between you and the fitter(s) and the fitter(s) will take full responsibility for the quality of their work and service. However, all our registered fitters have to act in a professional and respectful manner at all times and we demand all services to be of the highest standards.

We want to make sure your installation goes as smoothly as possible, and to facilitate this, please ensure that all rooms are cleared of furniture and old floor coverings, that the sub floor has been fully prepared, and the removal of any wires and cables etc. Please remember, the fitter cannot be responsible for disposal of the old flooring. If the installation cannot proceed on the day scheduled through no fault of ours or the fitters, then you may be responsible for any losses incurred by the fitter.

Every reasonable precaution will be taken to protect property in which the fitter will be working. The fitter will endeavour to leave the property clean and tidy and all reasonable care will be taken to prevent damage to internal fittings and decorations, please make sure the location is suitable prior to the installation being carried out.

Once we have processed your order, we will contact you and your appointed fitter to arrange a mutually convenient date for the installation of your new flooring.

Due to the nature of these services exact arrival and completion times cannot be guaranteed. You agree to pay the fitter the price as mutually agreed and payment is due immediately after completion of the installation. The price quoted is on the agreement that the fitter finds no faults or hindrances before any services takes place.

Unfortunately not all areas of the UK are covered by this service and you will be advised within a reasonable time if we cannot find a fitter for you. Wooji Flooring cannot be held responsible for any consequential losses due to cancellation of agreed dates by the fitter.

5.2 Details when you place your Order: When you place your Order you must inform us if you have any doubt whether our delivery lorry will be able to access the place of delivery you stipulate in that Order due to, for example, size or weight restrictions. If we cannot access the place of delivery that you stipulate in your Order due to the size of our delivery lorry, to the extent permitted by law, we shall not be liable to you for any losses, liabilities, costs, damages, charges or expenses arising out of:

5.2.2 delivery of the Product at a place different to the place of delivery that you stipulate in your Order.

When you place your Order you are able to provide a preferred delivery date, and, once the Confirmation of Order has been sent, we will contact you to either confirm that your preferred date is possible or to arrange an alternative date. We always aim to deliver in accordance with any confirmed delivery date we have given to you for any Order which we accept but we cannot guarantee any firm delivery dates and we suggest that, if you require an installation specialist to install the Product, you make arrangements for the installation only once you have received delivery of the Product.

5.5 Next day delivery details: Next day delivery can be requested for Orders. However, we only offer next day delivery for Orders placed by phone (and for which we have received full payment) before 12pm. Next day delivery is not available for Orders placed on Saturdays, Sundays or Bank Holidays. Finally, Next day delivery is always subject to availability of stock, subject to a surcharge and is always dependent on where the delivery location is as to whether we can offer it.

5.7 Unable to meet estimated delivery date: We shall aim to let you know if we expect that we are unable to meet our estimated delivery date, but, to the extent permitted by law, we shall not be liable to you for any losses, liabilities, costs, damages, charges or expenses arising out of late delivery.

5.8 Accepting delivery: On delivery of the Product, you are required to sign for delivery. You agree to inspect the Product for the correct quantities and any obvious faults, defects or damage before you sign for delivery. If the Product does have an obvious fault, defect or damage on delivery, you must stipulate that the Product is faulty, defective or damaged when you sign for delivery; a failure to stipulate this will mean that we cannot replace the faulty, defective or damaged Product. You need to keep receipt of the delivered Product in case of future discussions with us about it. You must submit any claim to us for faulty, defective or damaged Products within 14 days of delivery of the Product to you in accordance with this clause to the following contact details:

Phone:  01279 439 892

Email: Sales@wooji.net

If you do report a faulty, defective or damaged product to us, clause 8 applies.

5.11 Risk: All risk in the Product shall pass to you upon delivery, except that where delivery is delayed due to your breach of your obligations under the Contract, risk shall pass at the date when delivery would have occurred but for your breach.

5.15 Refusal to accept delivery: If delivery or collection is delayed through your unreasonable refusal to accept delivery, if you are not at the place of delivery stipulated in your Order on the delivery date that we agree with you, if you refuse to sign for the delivery of the Product on delivery or if you do not (within two weeks of our first attempt to deliver the Product to you) accept delivery or collect the Product from the carrier, then we may (without affecting any other right or remedy available to us) do either or both of the following:

5.15.1 charge you for our reasonable storage fee and other costs reasonably incurred by us, including, but not limited to, redelivery costs; and
5.15.2 no longer make the Product available for delivery or collection and notify you that we are immediately cancelling the Contract, in which case we will refund to you or your credit or debit card company as applicable any money already paid to us under the Contract, less our reasonable administration charges (including for attempting to deliver and then returning the Product).
