WISE GUYS PLUMBING LTD reserves the right, at any time, to modify, alter, or update these terms of use, and you agree to be bound by such modifications, alterations, or updates on subsequent visits.

Order Acceptance and Processing

After placing an order, we will process your credit or debit card, or obtain funds from your PayPal Account, for payment. As soon as we have received authorization for the payment from your card provider or PayPal we will begin to process your order through our system and we will send you an email acknowledging receipt of your order. This email constitutes acceptance by us and at this point a contract is formed between us. It is our policy to charge card for payment upon taking an order even if the goods are not immediately available for shipment.

Cancellation of Orders

To cancel please click here. Orders cannot be cancelled once the order has been given to the delivery company. If you no longer require goods that have entered our warehouse system you will have to return them under the Returns Policy – Changed Your Mind. (See below).

Delivery of Goods

The delivery of goods to you is deemed to be a separate contract for services, distinct from your contract to purchase the goods. Delivery may be affected in one or more installments.

If an item on a delivery is damaged, make a note of the damaged item on the delivery paperwork and email sales@wiseguysdiy.co.uk with the details. Do not refuse the delivery unless every item is damaged. If you refuse a delivery with any undamaged items on it, you will be charged for the return and the redelivery of those items. For large pallet deliveries please be aware that the costs will be considerably higher than the fee you are charged for delivery.

The delivery drivers are not insured to take their vehicles on roads other than public highways. If you live in a remote location and your home is not on a public road, e.g. If you live at the end of a farm track, then the driver will deliver the goods to the end of the public road only. You accept this when placing your order and if you refuse the delivery because of the driver cannot drop at your door then you will be charged the actual delivery costs and collection fees. (This will apply to large or very large item orders arriving on pallets like bathroom suites or shower enclosures. Smaller parcels can be usually delivered on foot by the driver.)

Delivery dates are approximate and no liability whatsoever is accepted in respect of late deliveries. Do not arrange for a plumber to install the items until after they have been delivered and checked for discrepancies and to make sure they are undamaged.

If for any reason expected delivery will exceed 14 days from the date of receipt of the order the customer will be informed and given the opportunity to cancel the order.

In certain circumstances where large bulky items are being ordered for delivery to very remote locations (such as Scottish Islands), there may be an additional carriage charge. If your order falls into this category then you will be notified of the extra cost and given the option of accepting the extra charge or canceling your order.

Without prejudice to the statutory rights afforded to consumers under English law, www.wiseguysdiy.co.uk accepts no liability for any failure to ship products where this results from its inability to do so resulting from acts of god, civil commotion, riots, flood, drought, fire, legislation or other factors outside it’s control, or its decision on reasonable grounds not to do so for reasons of suspicion of credit card fraud or similar, provided that it takes all reasonable steps to notify you within fourteen (14) days of order placement that products will not be shipped as ordered.

In such cases, Wise Guys Plumbing Ltd will not process any payment or will immediately refund any payment made, in full. It is your responsibility to ensure that you order from Wise Guys plumbing Ltd with sufficient lead-time to prevent any loss or disappointment resulting from such non-shipment.
