Products

1.

Oceans Outdoor Furniture Ltd. has taken great care with the content of this website, in particular to ensure that all products have been accurately described. We also make every effort to display the colour of the furniture as accurately as possible but as colour reproduction depends on your computer monitor, we cannot guarantee that the colour you see on your screen will replicate the product 100%.

2.

Please note that if you purchase items in the same colour but from different ranges, there may be a slight variance in colour. This is also true for same colour items purchased at different time periods.

3.

In hot weather or high temperatures, the properties of polymer stretches, this polymer will expand within limits under heat but will always return to its original state on cooling.

4.

Parasols are not assembled due to health and safety reasons.

5.

Lastly, you want to make sure you protect the glass table top from any scratches that may happen. This is important primarily because once the glass has been scratched; the odds are not in your favour that you will be able to fix it. Therefore, it will always have any scratch that has been inflicted. Please take the time to use mats, coasters and table cloths when appropriate.

Before you place your order

1.

If you decide you would like to place an order with Oceans Outdoor Furniture Ltd., please ensure that the goods are suitable for your requirement and that you have adequately measured not only the space where it is to be situated, but also the access. The measurements provided on the website and on any documentation are approximate only, and customers should take this in to account when measuring. Please be aware it is the customer's responsibility to ensure the furniture they purchase can pass through the doorways, hallways and access pathways. In the event of restricted access the delivery staff will leave the goods at the nearest convenient point for the customer.  If we are unable to access the property to make the delivery there will be a £100.00 return charge or the goods can be left for yourselves.

Delivery of your Furniture – Website & Telephone Orders

1.

All furniture will be delivered via a two-man carrier and will cost £50.00 per order with our Standard Delivery Service with no product assembly.  Goods required on our Standard Delivery service with assembly will be charged £85 (not applicable to self assembly items or huts). However, delivery costs may vary according to your postcode.  Trade delivery and installation costs will vary depending on the quantity of goods purchased.

2.

If the Standard Delivery service (with or without assembly) is chosen, then we will endeavour to deliver the order within 14 - 21 days, however, this may be quicker and will largely depend on current routes planned as all deliveries are carried out by our own vehicles and crews.  A handful of products, if ordered without other items of furniture, are delivered via external courier service.  Where the delivery is carried out by external courier, these deliveries are done on a Wednesday, Thursday and Friday of each week and allowing 48 hours notice. External courier delivery costs are also dependant on postcodes, and will be highlighted at the time of placing your order.

3.

We will endeavour to contact you directly 5 days prior to your delivery to arrange a delivery date. We cannot guarantee a time of delivery on the arranged date. We plan our deliveries several weeks in advance and therefore you are encouraged to accept the delivery date given to you. Unfortunately, if you are unable to accept this delivery date, then your delivery will be re-routed as though it was a new order and may take up to a further 28 days to be delivered. We reserve the right to charge a weekly storage fee, payable in advance, for deliveries that have not been completed due to your default, or for delivery dates that you find to be unacceptable.

4.

We ask that someone is available to receive your order when it arrives to sign for and check the goods.  We cannot deliver items without the customer present as the goods need to be checked and signed for.  Our delivery crew will call your designated contact number 1 hour before we are due to arrive at your premises, but we cannot guarantee an AM or a PM delivery slot due to the quick turnaround of these orders.

5.

Deliveries are only completed between Monday and Friday. However, during peak times this may vary.

6.

Our drivers make every effort to carry out deliveries on the day and time agreed; it is unfortunate that on occasion, some deliveries will be delayed due to circumstances beyond our control. 

7.

In the event that you are not in or contactable when we attempt delivery, the drivers are only permitted to wait a short period of time (maximum 15 minutes). They will then be asked to move on to their next delivery and we will not be able to return. In these instances we will have no option than to charge you a re-delivery fee of £50.00 (drop off) or £85.00 (assembly), this is applicable to all orders even if free delivery was given at point of sale.

8.

The delivery crew will unpack and remove all packaging materials and place item in situ (please see exceptions below).

Any intro products or contract products are delivery only.

Under no circumstances should a delivery and installation be signed as "goods unchecked". Our delivery team will request that you check the goods completely before signing the delivery notes.

9.2.

Any issues with the products should be noted on the delivery notes at the time of installation so that our delivery team can report back to our Customer Services Department to let them know of the issues that have arisen at your premises at the time of installation.

10.

If you are unable to accept delivery for a pre-arranged date, you must give us 3 days notice excluding weekends. A non-delivery fee of £50.00 (drop off) or £85.00 (assembly) will be applicable if you do not give the required notice. This is applicable even if free delivery was given at point of sale.

11.

You will become the owner of the goods (and be liable for the loss or destruction of the goods) at the time of delivery.

12.

Occasionally, the manufacture of furniture may be delayed through circumstances beyond our control. We endeavour to keep you informed of any delays and ask for your understanding if this arises.
