Terms and Conditions
In these conditions Stone Traders UK Ltd is referred to as the Seller. Any customer purchasing goods from the Seller is referred to as the Purchaser.
1. BASIS OF THE CONTRACT
1.1 Any order received by the Seller from the Purchaser shall be accepted entirely at the discretion of the Seller, and if so accepted, will only be accepted upon these conditions (hereinafter referred to as “the Conditions”).
1.2 Each order which is so accepted shall constitute an individual legally binding contract between the Seller and the Purchaser and such contract is hereinafter referred to in these Conditions as “an Order”.
2. PRICE OF GOODS AND PAYMENT
2.1 The price of the goods shall be that contained within the Seller’s current published price list on its website or, if different, the price contained within the quotation at the date of acceptance of the Order.
2.2 All prices contained within the Seller’s quotation are valid for 30 days only from the date shown on the quotation or until earlier acceptance by the Purchaser.
2.3 All published prices are exclusive of VAT and delivery charges. Delivery charges shall be separately itemised on the Seller’s quotation.
3. PAYMENT
Payment of the purchase price in full is required at the time of acceptance of the Order by the Seller.
4. DELIVERY
4.1 The goods will be delivered to the delivery address provided by the Purchaser. If delivery is unsuccessful due to either:-
(i) An inaccurate or incomplete delivery address;
(ii) No-one being present to accept delivery; or
(iii) Inaccessibility;
then, once another delivery date is arranged, the Purchaser will be charged additional delivery charges for each attempted re-delivery.
4.2 Delivery of the goods is deemed to have taken place when the goods have been offloaded at the nearest accessible point to the delivery address, which in many cases will be the property kerbside. Delivery any closer to the property will be at the driver’s discretions.
4.3 Risk of damage to or loss of the goods shall pass to the Purchaser upon delivery.
4.4 We are not liable for any costs incurred by you or any loss of earnings. For example, if a delivery is delayed in any way and you have to rebook an installer then we are not liable for any extra charges that the installer may charge you. We always recommend that you do not book an installer until you are in receipt of the goods. We are also not liable for any loss of earnings as a result of you taking time off work to accept a delivery even if it is late or delayed.
5. QUALITY & DESCRIPTION OF GOODS
All goods supplied by the Seller are natural materials and are subject to natural and geological variations in markings, colour, texture, cracks and vents, which are beyond the control of the Seller.

Immediately after delivery and examination by the Purchaser of the goods, the Purchasers shall be responsible for moving the goods to a suitable area of storage. The Seller accepts no liability for goods improperly stored or handled.
7. FITTING
The Seller recommends that the Purchaser employ only the services of a qualified and experienced installer in the storage, handling, laying and possible sealing of all natural stone. The Seller also recommends that the Purchaser use a good quality grout.
