  1. Third party rights

Nothing in this Agreement is intended to, nor shall it confer any rights on a third party.

  1.  Samples

The product samples that we supply are made using natural aggregate materials, these materials have variations across different batches, we supply samples only as an indication of the overall finish. Variations between batches do occur resulting in variance of both size and colour. We do not accept liability in the case of minor colour or size differences between samples and the supplied product.

  1.  Aggregate

The aggregate supplied is naturally sourced and as a consequence some batches may contain a concentration of iron ore. Unavoidably over time the affected batches may display rust spots in the surface. If this occurs our liability will solely extend to:

23.1.     Sandblasting the affected areas to reduce the rust spots.

23.2.     Applying a restoring coating to the affected areas.

This treatment will be carried out by Resin Bonded Ltd or a contractor appointed by us and will be undertaken for a period of no more than 5 years from the original application.

Proof of purchase will be required prior to commencement of the works.

  1. Referrals to Contractors

If requested to do so we will refer to you details of a contractor that has been trained by us and/or we have assessed the quality of their work on previous installations. At the time of training and/or assessment the company and the team that were trained were considered by us to be capable of installing our materials to a good standard.

Due to, but not limited to, factors that arise from changes in staff and company structure, we do not accept liability should for any reason you be dissatisfied with the contractor and/or their workmanship in any way.

Delivery Criteria

Goods remain the property of Resin Bonded Ltd until paid for in full.

We will always attempt to deliver your order on the requested delivery date, and as close to the time specified if a timed delivery has been requested. However, sometimes problems occur which are beyond our control, so we cannot guarantee this. Factors beyond our control include but are not limited to increased traffic, road closures, severe weather and vehicle breakdowns. If the delivery of goods is delayed through circumstances deemed by Resin Bonded Ltd to be beyond its control, the company will not accept any claims for loss or damage incurred by late or non-delivery.

We strongly recommend that goods are delivered the working day prior to installation.

We request that you inform us of any delivery access restrictions you may have, prior to goods being dispatched, along with a full delivery address and postcode as well as a mobile telephone number of a site contact.

Goods will be delivered on pallets and the driver will not under any circumstances allow you to handball goods from the vehicle.

Unless specifically requested otherwise the delivery will be made on a vehicle with a tail-lift operation. A tail-lift offload and manual pump truck can ONLY be operated on a solid hard surface free from grass, soil, uneven paving or gravel, and is flat and level. The delivered goods must be placed in a manner that does not obstruct public rights of way nor be deemed a safety hazard.

Please make sure you (or your representative) are available to receive the order to check and sign for the goods. If a delivery location is unattended an attempt will be made to contact the site contact given at the point of order. If when the driver delivers he cannot obtain a signature and the site is deemed unsafe for unattended delivery, the delivery will be returned for delivery at a later date. Further charges will be incurred if this happens.

We expect customers to inspect the goods on delivery. Inspection by the recipient of the delivery will be considered as acceptance of goods. A failure to inspect the goods shall be taken as acceptance of the goods as delivered. Any damages or discrepancies discovered must be noted on the delivery paperwork. The nature of the damage or the missing item(s) should be noted and signed by both driver and recipient in order for a credit and/or investigation to be raised. Any delivery or damaged goods complaint must be made within 24 hours of delivery by contacting the office of Resin Bonded Ltd. Photographs of the damaged/incomplete delivery are helpful if there is an opportunity to obtain these.

Once delivery is accepted it is the responsibility of the recipient of the goods to keep the materials dry and to ensure that any subsequent movement and unpacking of the goods does not cause damage to either the materials themselves or the surrounding surfaces.
