TERMS & CONDITIONS

---

PLEASE REVIEW THE FOLLOWING TERMS AND CONDITIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE ACCEPTING YOUR QUOTE.

BY ACCEPTING A QUOTE OR ESTIMATE FROM HARLAND DECORATING SERVICES, YOU ARE ENTERING INTO A CONTRACT AND AGREEING TO THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OUTLINED BELOW.

'I', 'me' and 'my' means Harland Decorating Services. 'You', 'your' and 'customer', means the person who requested my services and enters into this contract.

Your quote is valid for 30 days. The final invoice may differ from the quote due to unforeseen issues and additional work requests (for example, late requests for dark-coloured paint or changes from water-based topcoats to the application of more time-consuming oil-based topcoats).

You may cancel your decorating work within 14 days of accepting your quote, in accordance with statutory guidelines. Please notify me by email using the contact details provided in your quote. For more information, visit the Citizens Advice website.

Cancellations after 14 days: If you cancel within 14 days of the start date, a fee of 25% of the written quote will apply. Last-minute cancellations often lead to lost workdays, as it is rarely possible to fill the diary slot with another job of the same size.

Please let me know as soon as possible if you need to postpone your work. A second postponement will be treated as a cancellation, with the applicable cancellation fee.

Projects over £1,000 may require a deposit, and those over £2,000 may necessitate a mid-project part-payment. Full payment of the final invoice is due within 5 days via bank transfer.

To ensure a smooth decorating process, please clear the areas to be decorated (including curtains and blinds where necessary). I am happy to help move furniture if needed.

While I take precautions, accidents can happen, so please avoid entering the work area. If possible, provide access to power, water, and toilet facilities. Let me know in advance if this isn't possible, as it may incur additional costs. I may request to leave tools and materials at your home; if so, please refrain from using them.

I will provide all necessary trade-quality materials but cannot guarantee the quality of paints supplied by customers. I cannot remove waste from the decorating work, as I do not have a waste removal license. Waste will be placed in rubbish bags for you to dispose of.

I may use anonymous photographs of your decorating work for marketing purposes on this website. If you have concerns, please inform me.
