OUR CONTRACT WITH YOU
- How we will accept your order. Our acceptance of your order will take place when a representative of Go For Granite Limited signs the customer order form, at which point a contract will come into existence between you and us.
- If we cannot accept your order. If we are unable to accept your order, we will inform you of this and will not charge you for the product. This might be because the product is out of stock, because of unexpected limits on our resources which we could not reasonably plan for, because we have identified an error in the price or description of the product or because we are unable to meet a delivery deadline you have specified.
- Your reference number. We will assign an order number to your order and tell you what it is when we accept your order. It will help us if you can tell us the reference number whenever you contact us about your order.
- We only sell to the UK. Our marketing materials are solely for the promotion of our products in the UK. Unfortunately, we do not deliver products to or provide our services at addresses outside the UK.
- OUR PRODUCTS AND SERVICES
- Products may vary slightly from their pictures or samples. Any product samples provided to you and any images of the products in, on our website are for illustrative purposes only. Although we have made every effort to ensure the colours are accurately represented there may be minor variations. Granite is a natural product and there may be slight differences between the sample and the finished product. We cannot guarantee that a device’s display of the colours accurately reflects the colour of the products. Your product may vary slightly from those images.
- Measuring and creating templates. Where we take measurements and create templates for the product, we will agree a mutually convenient time for us to attend the property at the time you place the order. You must ensure that we have access to the property at the agreed time and that you are present while we carry out the measuring exercise. We will require you to agree and sign our template confirmation form. We do not charge for our measuring service but if we are unable to access the property, you are not present at the time agreed or you request that we attend on one or more subsequent occasions to re-measure we reserve the right to make a charge of £250 plus VAT for each additional attendance. Once we have taken the measurements and you have signed the template confirmation form you will be unable to make any changes to your order.
- Making sure your measurements are accurate. If we are making the product to measurements you have given us you are responsible for ensuring that these measurements are correct.
- YOUR RIGHTS TO MAKE CHANGES
If you wish to make a change to the product you have ordered please contact us in writing within 24 hours of confirming your order. We will let you know if the change is possible. If it is possible we will let you know about any changes to the price of the product, the timing of supply or anything else which would be necessary as a result of your requested change and ask you to confirm whether you wish to go ahead with the change.
- OUR RIGHTS TO MAKE CHANGES
- Minor changes to the products. We may change the product to reflect changes in relevant laws and regulatory requirements.
- Substitution of products. In some cases it may not be possible to supply the exact product selected at the time the order was placed due to stock availability. We reserve the right to substitute the product with another product of equivalent material, colour, finish and quality in those circumstances. We will always inform you of such substitution in advance and will not charge you for any price difference as a result of the substituted product being of a higher value than the original product ordered.
- PROVIDING THE PRODUCTS
- Delivery costs. The costs of delivery will be included in the price unless otherwise agreed and set out in the Customer Order Form or agreed in writing between us. In the event that you wish to collect the products we will agree a date for collection.
- When we will provide and install the products During the order process we will let you know when we will provide the products and fit these for you.
- Access. You must make suitable arrangements to enable us to enter your property for the purposes of delivering and installing the product. You must ensure reasonable access for our delivery vehicle at the property. Please make sure it is practical for our two person delivery team to get the product into your room of choice.
- We are not responsible for delays outside our control. If our supply of the products and services is delayed by an event outside our control then we will contact you as soon as possible to let you know and we will take steps to minimise the effect of the delay. Provided we do this we will not be liable for delays caused by the event, but if there is a risk of substantial delay you may contact us to end the contract and receive a refund for any products and services you have paid for but not received.
- If you do not allow us access to provide services. If you do not allow us access to your property to perform the services as arranged (and you do not have a good reason for this) we may charge you additional costs incurred by us as a result. If, despite our reasonable efforts, we are unable to contact you or re-arrange access to your property we may end the contract and clause 10.2 will apply.
- When you become responsible for the goods. A product which is goods will be your responsibility from the time of installation completion of the product to the address you gave us or when you collect it from us.
- When you own goods. You own a product which is goods once we have received payment in full.
- YOUR RIGHTS TO END THE CONTRACT
- You can always end your contract with us. Your rights when you end the contract will depend on what you have bought, whether there is anything wrong with it, how we are performing and when you decide to end the contract:
- If what you have bought is faulty or misdescribed you may have a legal right to end the contract (or to get the product repaired or replaced or a service reperformed or to get some or all of your money back), see clause 11;
- If you want to end the contract because of something we have done or have told you we are going to do, (see clause 8.2);
- In all other cases (if we are not at fault and there is no right to change your mind), (see clause 8.4)
- Ending the contract because of something we have done or are going to do. If you are ending a contract for a reason set out at clauses (8.2.1) to (8.2.4) below the contract will end immediately and we will refund you in full for any products which have not been provided and you may also be entitled to compensation. The reasons are:
- we have told you about an upcoming change to the product or these terms which you do not agree to;
- we have told you about an error in the price or description of the product you have ordered and you do not wish to proceed;
- there is a risk that supply of the products may be significantly delayed because of events outside our control; or
- you have a legal right to end the contract because of something we have done wrong (including because we have delivered late)
- When you don’t have the right to change your mind. You do not have a right to change your mind in respect of measured items which are made to your specifications or are clearly personalised and services, once these have been completed.
- Have you bought services only? If so, where you have placed your order by telephone, email (or equivalent distance means of communication) or we have taken your order at your home or somewhere other than our business premises, you have 14 days after the day we email you to confirm we accept your order. However, once we have completed the services you cannot change your mind, even if the period is still running. If you cancel after we have started the services, you must pay us for the services provided up until the time you tell us that you have changed your mind.
- Ending the contract where we are not at fault and there is no right to change your mind. Even if we are not at fault and you do not have a right to change your mind (see clause 8.1), you can still end the contract before it is completed, but you may have to pay us compensation. A contract for goods is completed when the product is delivered and paid for. A contract for services is completed when we have finished providing the services and you have paid for them. If you want to end a contract before it is completed where we are not at fault and you have not changed your mind, just contact us to let us know. The contract will end immediately and we will refund any sums paid by you for products not provided but we may deduct from that refund (or, if you have not made an advance payment, charge you) reasonable compensation for the net costs we will incur as a result of your ending the contract

PRICE AND PAYMENT
- Where to find the price for the product. The price of the product will be the price indicated on your customer order form. We take all reasonable care to use our best efforts to ensure that the price of the product advised to you is correct. However please see clause 12.3 for what happens if we discover an error in the price of the product you order.
- We will pass on changes in the rate of VAT. If the rate of VAT changes between your order date and the date we supply the product, we will adjust the rate of VAT that you pay, unless you have already paid for the product in full before the change in the rate of VAT takes effect
- What happens if we got the price wrong. It is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the products we sell may be incorrectly priced. We will normally check prices before accepting your order so that, where the product’s correct price at your order date is less than our stated price at your order date, we will charge the lower amount. If the product’s correct price at your order date is higher than the price stated to you, we will contact you for your instructions before we accept your order. If we accept and process your order where a pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could reasonably have been recognised by you as a mispricing, we may end the contract, refund you any sums you have paid and require the return of any goods provided to you.
- When you must pay and how you must pay. We accept payment by bank transfer, cash or cheque or as otherwise set out in our customer order form. When you must pay is set out in the customer order form.
- We can charge interest if you pay late. If you do not make any payment to us by the due date we may charge interest to you on the overdue amount at the rate of 4% a year above the base lending rate of Barclays Bank from time to time. This interest shall accrue on a daily basis from the due date until the date of actual payment of the overdue amount, whether before or after judgment. You must pay us interest together with any overdue amount.
- What to do if you think an invoice is wrong. If you think an invoice is wrong please contact us promptly to let us know. You will not have to pay any interest until the dispute is resolved. Once the dispute is resolved we will charge you interest on correctly invoiced sums from the original due date.
- OUR RESPONSIBILITY FOR LOSS OR DAMAGE SUFFERED BY YOU
- We are responsible to you for foreseeable loss and damage caused by us. If we fail to comply with these terms, we are responsible for loss or damage you suffer that is a foreseeable result of our breaking this contract or our failing to use reasonable care and skill, but we are not responsible for any loss or damage that is not foreseeable. Loss or damage is foreseeable if either it is obvious that it will happen or if, at the time the contract was made, both we and you knew it might happen, for example, if you discussed it with us during the sales process.
- We do not exclude or limit in any way our liability to you where it would be unlawful to do so. This includes liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence or the negligence of our employees, agents or subcontractors; for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; for breach of your legal rights in relation to the products as summarised at clause 11.2.
- When we are liable for damage to your property. If we are providing services in your property, we will make good any damage to your property caused by us while doing so. However, we are not responsible for the cost of repairing any pre-existing faults or damage to your property that we discover while providing the services.
- We are not liable for business losses. We only supply the products for domestic and private use. If you use the products for any commercial, business or re-sale purpose we will have no liability to you for any loss of profit, loss of business, business interruption, or loss of business opportunity.

OTHER IMPORTANT TERMS
- We may transfer this Agreement to someone else. We may transfer our rights and obligations under these terms to another organisation. We will always tell you in writing if this happens and we will ensure that the transfer will not affect your rights under the contract.
- Nobody else has any rights under this contract. This contract is between you and us. No other person shall have any rights to enforce any of its terms. Neither of us will need to get the agreement of any other person in order to end the contract or make any changes to these terms.
- If a court finds part of this contract illegal, the rest will continue in force. Each of the paragraphs of these terms operates separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any of them are unlawful, the remaining paragraphs will remain in full force and effect.
- Even if we delay in enforcing this contract, we can still enforce it later. If we do not insist immediately that you do anything you are required to do under these terms, or if we delay in taking steps against you in respect of your breaking this contract, that will not mean that you do not have to do those things and it will not prevent us taking steps against you at a later date. For example, if you miss a payment and we do not chase you but we continue to provide the products, we can still require you to make the payment at a later date.
