8.2 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 (a) or (b) 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:
8.2.1 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;

These rights, under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013, are explained in more detail in these terms.
8.4 When you don’t have the right to change your mind. You do not have a right to change your mind in respect of:
8.4.1 bespoke products that have been specifically custom made to your specific requirements, for example windows, doors or conservatories which are made to measure and have been manufactured at your request; and
8.4.2 services, once these have been completed, even if the cancellation period is still running.
8.5 How long do I have to change my mind? How long you have depends on what you have ordered and how it is delivered.
8.5.1 Have you bought services? If so, 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.

them back to us or (if they are not suitable for posting) allow us to collect them from you. Please call customer services on 01752 786015 or email us at [email protected].

9.6 Deductions from refunds if you are exercising your right to change your mind. If you are exercising your right to change your mind:
9.6.1 The maximum refund for delivery costs will be the costs of delivery by the least expensive delivery method we offer. For example, if we offer delivery of a product within 3-5 days at one cost but you choose to have the product delivered within 24 hours at a higher cost, then we will only refund what you would have paid for the cheaper delivery option.
9.6.2 Where the product is a service, we may deduct from any refund an amount for the supply of the service for the period for which it was supplied, ending with the time when you told us you had changed your mind. The amount will be in proportion to what has been supplied, in comparison with the full coverage of the contract.

12.3 for what happens if we discover an error in the price of the product you order.
12.2 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.
12.3 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.
12.4 When you must pay and how you must pay. We can usually accept payment by BACS, faster payment, electronic bank transfer, cheque and cash. When you must pay depends on what product you are buying:
12.4.1 You must make an advance deposit for the goods or services, before we provide them, a deposit will be agreed with you in advance. We will invoice you for the balance of the price of the services when we have completed them. Payment is due on presentation of each invoice.
12.5 We can charge interest if you pay late. If you do not make any payment to us within 7 days of receiving your final invoice we may charge interest to you on the overdue amount at the rate of 3% a year above the base lending rate of Bank of England 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.
12.6 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.

 

13. Our responsibility for loss or damage suffered by you
13.1 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.
13.2 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 including the right to receive products which are: as described and match information we provided to you and any sample or model seen or examined by you; of satisfactory quality; fit for any particular purpose made known to us; supplied with reasonable skill and care and, where installed by us, correctly installed; and for defective products under the Consumer Protection Act 1987.
13.3 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 or anything we have confirmed is specifically excluded.

You may only transfer your rights or your obligations under these terms to another person if we agree to this in writing. However, you may transfer our guarantee to a person who has acquired the product or, where the product is services, any item or property in respect of which we have provided the services. We may require the person to whom the guarantee is transferred to provide reasonable evidence that they are now the owner of the relevant property.
15.2 Nobody else has any rights under this contract (except someone you pass your guarantee on to). This contract is between you and us. No other person shall have any rights to enforce any of its terms, except as explained in clause 15.1 in respect of our guarantee. 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.
15.3 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.

Customer Reviews

“We shopped around quite a few in the Plymouth and surrounding areas, Crownhill Conservatives were very competitively priced, great quality, no pushy salesman, friendly team where nothing was too much trouble…I would highly recommend absolutely loving our conservatory which is now my favourite room in our property”

Ann, Plymouth

“Steve B was so helpful and accommodating at every stage of the conservatory project, from the initial consultation and planning right through to the plumbing and plastering. We had quotes from two other bigger companies but wanted to keep the business local. Nothing has been too much trouble. Would definitely recommend them to anyone.”

Jackie, Plymouth

“I can highly recommend this company. The staff are so helpful and efficient and the product comes at a competitive price too.!”

Mike, Plymouth

“We are delighted with our “Guardian” replacement roof. Steve C. did an amazing job removing the old one and fitting the new. A tricky job, but expertly accomplished to our complete satisfaction, with fine attention to detail and a clean, stylish finish. Our conservatory has been transformed. Competitively priced and promptly fitted. Would we employ Crownhill Conservatories again? “yes please”

David, Plymouth

“They came to us highly recommended by personal contacts and created a brilliant new conservatory for us. The team has been working together for many years and this is also evident in their seamless work with sub-contractors – eg electrician and plasterer. Their work is meticulous and nothing is too much trouble. If you are looking for a local company which specialises in conservatories and who also offer realistic quotes and trusting terms, contact them now. They have been in the business for some time and know what they are doing, and they do it very well.”

Rory, Plymouth
