Quotations/Prices

  • Our quotation provides an indication to you of the items on which you may place an order, but no order from you as a result of a quotation (or otherwise) shall be binding upon us unless and until it is accepted or confirmed by us.

  • A quotation is made on the assumption that the work requested is reasonably capable of being carried out. If on inspection this is found in our opinion not to be the case, we will advise you to this effect as soon as reasonably practicable, and may offer you a reconditioned or new substitute on terms to be agreed. If you give a general instruction for repairs without specifying the particular service or replacement parts, we will be entitled to carry out such repairs or, modifications or service as in our opinion are necessary to put the Customer's Premises in good working order, and to make an appropriate charge for the work and parts provided.

  • Provided your order is placed and confirmed within seven days of the date of the quotation, the price contained on the quotation shall be fixed unless the quotation states otherwise. If your order is not placed in that period, then if any change shall occur after that in the costs of any materials, labour, transport or other items, including overheads, which we have to pay or incur may affect the final invoice. However, any change to the original quoted cost, will be discussed and must be agreed upon with client before any work can continue.

  • We will charge for all work carried out at your request, whether exploratory or otherwise and, in particular, we reserve the right to instruct our employees or agents to work overtime to comply with your delivery requirements if the deliver requirements were not part of the original time frame discussed. In such cases we may charge you the cost of such overtime but any overtime costs will be discussed with you and must be agreed upon by you before the overtime can commence. If the overtime rate is not agreed, we will continue to carry out the work within the original time frame discussed during the quotation period.
