Making A Purchase

The following terms and conditions apply to all transactions on IdealBathrooms.im. The placement of an order indicates your acceptance of these terms and conditions. Please read them carefully and print a copy for future use if necessary. To order goods through this website, you must be at least 18 years of age and accept delivery within the UK. We will treat each order for goods as an offer by you to purchase the goods subject to these terms and conditions.

During the Christmas festive period, deliveries will cease on the 24th December and recommence on Jan 5th (including express deliveries). Certain postcodes may experience a longer lead time for delivery.

1) Description of Goods
All images, descriptive matter, specifications and advertising on our site are for the sole purpose of giving an approximate description of the goods. All specifications given to the Customer are approximate and intended as a guide only. We endeavour to ensure product descriptions are correct, but advise customers to seek technical advice from qualified sources prior to ordering products and any work to be carried out.

2) Your Order
If goods are ordered after 12.00pm on a weekday, over the weekend or on a bank holiday, the order date is taken as the following working day for delivery purposes. If a delivery would normally fall due over the Christmas shut-down period, the delivery period may be extended to a later date. After completion of your order please check your receipt and ensure that all the details are correct. If you are in any doubt, please contact our sales department immediately.

3) Payment and Price
We are entitled to make adjustments to the price to take account of any increase in our suppliers' prices or the imposition of any taxes or duties or, if due to an error or omission, the price published for the goods is wrong, whether or not the order has been confirmed. We ask that all goods be paid for on completion of order and that all funds are cleared prior to delivery. On the order, you must provide us with your exact billing address and a contact telephone number. Incorrect information will cause a delay in processing your order.

4) Delivery Charges
Orders will be charged according to weight and size of each order.

5) Shipping and Handling
To ensure your order reaches you in perfect condition, we send larger fragile goods via a palletised delivery service We may not be able to arrange delivery of these larger items outside the IOM.

6) Back Orders
If your item is not in stock, we will back order for you. You will be given the option to cancel your order if you would rather not wait.

7) Deliveries
We endeavour to deliver most products within the times stated above. However, all delivery dates given are only and always provisional. If, for any reason, expected delivery will exceed the stated time from the date of receipt of order, the customer will be informed and given the opportunity to cancel the order. Goods are subject to availability, and delay in delivery of goods is sometimes outside of our control. We accept no liability whatsoever in respect to late deliveries.

If you have ordered a bath or a bathroom suite, our transport company will call you to arrange delivery. IdealBathrooms.im strongly advises that you do not book your installers or engage in any preparatory work until full receipt of your goods. If any item is out of stock, we will email or telephone you to advise you of the expected delivery date.

9) Risk
As soon as we have delivered the goods to your door you will be responsible for them. We will only deliver to the address on the order, and goods will not be left without a signature. From the time of receipted delivery of the goods, any loss or damage to the goods shall be at your own risk.

To exercise your right of cancellation, you must give written (by post, by fax or email) giving details of goods ordered and their delivery for full details of how to return please contact us.

Except in the case of faulty or mis-described goods, if you exercise your right to cancel after the goods have been delivered you will be responsible for returning them at your own cost and at your own risk. For items still in transit the cost of returning the goods will be your responsibility. You must take reasonable care to make sure the goods are not damaged in the meantime or in transit. Should the items be sent via a carrier which requires them to be checked on delivery, please inform us of such in writing (email, fax, letter) before the delivery date. Please also detail the day and method by which they are due to be delivered.

In the case of faulty or mis-described goods that we cannot exchange for whatever reason, we shall ask you to return the goods yourself and refund you the reasonable postage costs. It is therefore important you make absolutely sure your requirements are correct on purchase. We will refund your money within 30 days of cancellation / return of goods less any delivery costs incurred.

11) Other
Failure by us to enforce any of these terms and conditions will not affect our right to enforce the rest of these terms and conditions. These terms and conditions are subject to change at any time without prior notice to you. Terms and Conditions do not affect your statutory rights.

12) Delivery
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 in one or more instalments.

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 any additional delivery costs, restocking and collection fees (this will apply to large, bulky 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 are not the essence of the contract. You are advised not to arrange installation of the items until after they have been delivered and checked for damage.

In certain circumstances where large bulky items are being ordered for delivery to very remote locations, 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 cancelling your order.

The driver will break down the pallet and move the individual items to a single location of your choice outside the property. The drivers may be prepared to assist with moving the items into the property but this is entirely at their discretion and they are not obliged to do this. The delivery may be made by a single driver, so if the items you have ordered are heavy, please ensure that an able-bodied person is available to assist the driver with the carrying. For Health and Safety reasons the driver cannot carry heavy items on his own.

Without prejudice to the statutory rights afforded to consumers under Manx and English law, we accept no liability for any failure to ship products due to lack of stock, pricing errors or similar 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 Aquabliss Ltd will not process any payment or will immediately refund any payment made, in full.

Checking Goods for Damage and Notifying IdealBathrooms.im
For small item deliveries (taps & shower valves) that arrive with carriers, you agree to open all boxes and thoroughly check the goods for damage on the day of delivery and notify us of any damage within 1 day of the delivery.

For bulky deliveries (such as sanitaryware, baths and enclosures) that arrive on pallets, you agree to check the goods for damage before signing the driver’s delivery note. The driver will allow for time in which to inspect the items and identify any issues should they arise. If you sign for the goods, then you are accepting that the goods arrived in good condition and any later claims for damages or missing items will not be considered. If the driver refuses to wait while you check the goods, then you must refuse to accept the delivery and notify us as soon as possible.

If someone else is signing for the goods on your behalf, you agree to advise them that the goods must be checked. Small damage, such as a hairline crack under 5cm in length, or small chip less than 0.5cm which wouldn't be noticed until further inspection of the product must be reported within a reasonable time - which we would expect to be within 24 hours. Should there be an instance of damage which may only be noticed during installation (i.e., an internal crack within a toilet pan for instance), this must be reported as soon as possible during installation.

Damaged / Missing Goods
If a delivered item is damaged, make a note of the damaged item on the delivery paperwork and email us 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 may be charged for the return and the redelivery of those items.
