1. Introduction

These Terms and Conditions ("Terms", "Agreement") govern your use of the website located at https://gnatciucjointersltd.co.uk/ (the "Website") and your relationship with GNATCIUC JOINTERS LTD ("we", "us", "our", "the Company"). By accessing or using our Website and services, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you disagree with any part of these Terms, please do not use our Website or services.

These Terms apply to all visitors, users, and others who wish to access or use our Website and engage our joinery services.

2. Our Services

GNATCIUC JOINTERS LTD provides professional joinery and carpentry services, including but not limited to bespoke joinery, furniture installation, kitchen fitting, door hanging, flooring, and general carpentry works. The precise scope of any service engagement will be outlined in a separate quotation or service agreement provided to the client.

All descriptions of services, estimates, and quotations provided on our Website or through direct communication are subject to final verification following an on-site assessment. We reserve the right to amend any quotation if unforeseen circumstances or additional requirements arise during the provision of services.

3. Quotations and Estimates

Any quotation or estimate provided by us is valid for a period of 30 days from the date of issue unless otherwise stated in writing. A quotation does not constitute a binding contract until formally accepted by the client and confirmed by us in writing.

We reserve the right to withdraw or amend a quotation at any time prior to written acceptance. Quotations are based on the information provided by the client at the time of request; any changes to the scope of work may result in revised pricing.

4. Acceptance of Terms

By engaging our services, requesting a quotation, or otherwise interacting with our business, you confirm that you have read, understood, and accepted these Terms and Conditions in full. If you are accepting these Terms on behalf of a company or other legal entity, you represent that you have the authority to bind such entity to these Terms.

5. Client Obligations

As a client, you agree to the following obligations:

Provide accurate, complete, and up-to-date information relevant to the services requested.
Ensure safe and reasonable access to the property or site where services are to be performed.
Obtain any necessary permissions, consents, or approvals required for the work to be carried out (e.g., landlord consent, planning permission).
Inform us of any known hazards, asbestos, structural issues, or other relevant conditions at the site prior to commencement of work.
Ensure that the work area is clear and safe for our personnel to perform the agreed services.
Make timely payments as set out in the quotation or invoice.

6. Pricing and Payment Terms

All prices quoted are in Pounds Sterling (£ GBP) and are exclusive of Value Added Tax (VAT) unless otherwise stated. Any applicable VAT will be added at the current rate and shown separately on the invoice.

Payment terms are as follows:

A deposit may be required prior to commencement of work, typically ranging from 30% to 50% of the total quoted amount, depending on the scope and scale of the project.
The final balance is due upon completion of the work, unless alternative payment arrangements have been agreed in writing.
Invoices are payable within 14 days of the invoice date unless otherwise specified.
Late payments may incur interest at a rate of 8% per annum above the Bank of England base rate, calculated daily from the due date until the date of full payment.
All reasonable costs incurred in recovering overdue payments (including debt collection fees and legal costs) may be charged to the client.

7. Cancellation and Rescheduling

If you wish to cancel or reschedule a confirmed booking, you must notify us as soon as possible. Cancellation charges may apply as follows:

Cancellation more than 7 days before the scheduled start date: no charge, deposit refunded.
Cancellation between 48 hours and 7 days before the scheduled start date: 25% of the quoted amount or forfeiture of deposit.
Cancellation less than 48 hours before the scheduled start date: 50% of the quoted amount.
Cancellation on the scheduled start date or failure to provide access: 100% of the quoted amount for that day's work.

We reserve the right to cancel or reschedule any engagement due to circumstances beyond our reasonable control, including adverse weather conditions, illness, or equipment failure. In such cases, we will work with the client to rearrange at no additional cost.

8. Performance and Completion

We will perform our services with reasonable care and skill, using materials of satisfactory quality. Estimated completion dates are provided in good faith but are not guaranteed unless expressly stated in a written contract. We shall not be liable for any delays caused by circumstances beyond our reasonable control, including supply chain issues, site conditions, or third-party actions.

The client agrees to provide a reasonable opportunity for us to complete the agreed work and to rectify any identified defects before engaging alternative contractors or withholding payment.

9. Warranties and Defects Liability

We warrant that all workmanship shall be free from material defects for a period of 12 months from the date of completion ("Warranty Period"). This warranty covers defects arising from faulty workmanship but does not cover the following:

Normal wear and tear.
Damage caused by misuse, neglect, accident, or unauthorised modifications.
Defects in materials supplied by the client.
Issues arising from structural movement, dampness, or other building conditions not caused by our work.
Cosmetic imperfections that do not affect functionality.

To make a warranty claim, the client must notify us in writing within a reasonable time of discovering the defect, and in any event within the Warranty Period. We will, at our option, repair or replace the defective workmanship at no cost to the client.

10. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, our total liability to you arising out of or in connection with these Terms and our services shall not exceed the total amount paid by you for the specific services giving rise to the claim.

We shall not be liable for any indirect, consequential, or special damages, including loss of profit, loss of business, loss of data, or loss of use, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages.

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or any other liability that cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law.

11. Insurance

GNATCIUC JOINTERS LTD maintains appropriate public liability insurance in respect of our activities. Upon reasonable request, we will provide evidence of our insurance cover. It is the client's responsibility to maintain their own insurance in respect of their property and any contents.

12. Materials and Ownership

All materials supplied by us remain our property until full payment has been received. If payment is not made when due, we reserve the right to enter the site and remove materials supplied by us, subject to applicable laws.

Any materials or waste removed from the site by us shall become our property unless otherwise agreed in writing. The client is responsible for the disposal of any materials they choose to retain.

13. Intellectual Property

All designs, drawings, specifications, photographs, and other creative works produced by us in connection with our services remain our intellectual property and may not be reproduced, distributed, or used for any purpose other than the intended project without our prior written consent.

14. Website Use

Our Website is provided for informational purposes only. We make no representations or warranties regarding the accuracy, completeness, or reliability of any content on the Website. Your use of the Website is at your sole risk. We may suspend or terminate access to the Website at any time without notice.

16. Force Majeure

Neither party shall be liable for any delay or failure to perform its obligations under these Terms if such delay or failure arises from circumstances beyond its reasonable control, including but not limited to acts of God, natural disasters, war, civil unrest, terrorism, pandemic, epidemic, fire, flood, storm, explosion, strikes, lockouts, or governmental actions. The affected party shall notify the other party as soon as reasonably practicable and shall take reasonable steps to mitigate the impact of such event.

17. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution

These Terms and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with them shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of England and Wales.

Any dispute arising from these Terms shall first be attempted to be resolved through good-faith negotiations between the parties. If the dispute cannot be resolved within 30 days, either party may refer the matter to mediation or arbitration before commencing court proceedings. The courts of England and Wales shall have exclusive jurisdiction to hear any disputes not resolved through alternative methods.

18. Severability

If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid, unlawful, or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, such provision shall be severed from the remaining Terms, which shall continue in full force and effect. The parties shall make a good-faith effort to replace any invalid provision with a valid one that most closely approximates the commercial intent of the original provision.

19. Entire Agreement

These Terms, together with any quotation or written service agreement provided to the client, constitute the entire agreement between you and GNATCIUC JOINTERS LTD with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior or contemporaneous communications, representations, or agreements, whether oral or written.

No modification or amendment of these Terms shall be effective unless made in writing and signed by an authorised representative of both parties.
