What To Expect

Pallet Deliveries:

Heavier items such as solid fuel stoves, shower trays and shower cubicles are delivered on a pallet via a haulage company. Please note the smallest size delivery vehicle is 7.5 tonnes.

Deliveries are between the hours 8.00am and 6.00 pm Monday to Friday. Unfortunately we are unable to give a specific time for the delivery, but if you have supplied a mobile telephone number with your order the haulage company will call you on the day an hour before delivery is due to take place.

Someone must be there to sign for and check the delivery.

Once delivery has been arranged and confirmed if no one is available to accept the delivery we reserve the right to charge a re-delivery fee of £30.00.
You have a 20 minute time frame for the driver to unload and for you to check the goods. (despite what the delivery driver may say.)

*Please make sure you check your delivery thoroughly before signing for it – if in doubt please sign for it as “not checked” as no claims for damage can be made if signed for in good condition. Thank you.*

We pay an insurance to the haulage company so that in the event a damage occurs we are all covered. If the goods are signed for in good condition and it turns out later after you have signed for in good condition that the goods are damaged; it voids the insurance. This is why you must check your delivery.

Please note if you require an am or pm delivery we can arrange this for you but there is an extra charge for this service. You will receive updates throughout your delivery process by email and we will telephone you to arrange a convenient delivery day. (Please note if you are Scotland or Highlands allow an extra 2 – 3 working days from the times quoted on the product page.)

Please note: There needs to be 2 able bodied persons on site to take the item into the property it is a kerbside delivery and the delivery driver is NOT insured to take the items inside for you and the driver does not take the pallet away.

Damages & Missing Parts:

If you find any damage or discover that parts are missing or incorrect after delivery, you must contact us within 24 hours. We will not accept liability for any claims for goods which are damaged, incorrect, shortage or with missing parts which are not notified within a reasonable time after the goods were delivered, We class a reasonable time as 24 hours. For damage claims we will require photographic evidence sending and a description of the damage by email.

We will not be responsible for compensating you for any losses you may suffer due to incorrect items sent, damaged items, missing or faulty goods once installation has commenced. All goods must be thoroughly checked by a responsible person within 24  hours of receipt after this period it will be deemed that you have accepted your goods in good condition with no missing parts.

If a part is missing or damaged will will endevour to get the missing/replacement item sent out as soon as possible. In the unlikely event that the product has a technical fault, we will on your behalf arrange for the manufacturer to contact you regarding a call out, the manufacturer will then send an engineer out if the product has already been installed, but SNH will NOT be liable for any extra costs this MAY incur.

When making a purchase from snh we specify that you check for damages and missing parts before you organise any fitting service so there would be no aditional charges to yourself from your fitter.

My Delivery Did Not Arrive What Happens Now?

In the unlikely event you were texted to confirm a delivery and it did not happen this is what is known as a direct loss, we will rearrange a convenient delivery day for you. If you have taken a day off to recieve your delivery you can’t claim compensation for the original no-show day as you haven’t technically lost out through this, because you were going to take that day off work anyway. So to avoid any extra costs to you by way of a consequential loss ie: you need take a SECOND day (or morning / hour) off for a new date, any second delivery attempt will be arranged for a day when you are not supposed to be at work. (This does not include weekends)

Delivery Charges Are As Follows:

• Standard items (companion sets, fireguards, taps and most showers) £2.99 to £4.99 per order
• Large/Heavy items (large fire basket, fireplaces, complete bathroom suites, shower cubical etc) £19.99 to £49.00 dependent on the area you live.

IMPORTANT – All items must be checked for damages within 24 hours of arrival, PLEASE ask the delivery driver to mark on his PDA hand held machine that the item is “unchecked”. ANY claims of damage on delivery will not be upheld if you sign for the goods that they are in “good condition” on arrival. The driver will be able to do this for you “UNCHECKED” .

For non signed for delivery, you must inform us with 48hours .
