   3. We will use reasonable endeavours to ensure that the Products We use match those chosen by You and are consistent throughout the Property (or relevant parts of the Property). There may be slight variations to the same Products as a result of differences between photographs, catalogues and other materials, and the Products themselves, or as a result of minor technical changes which will not impact your use of the Product in question. Product packaging may also vary. If different Products are required due to non-availability, We will not supply them without consulting with You first, in advance of commencement of the Plumbing Services.

   6. We will ensure that We comply with all relevant codes of practice.

Alternatively, You may keep the Product(s) at a reduced price. This right may not apply if We can prove that the defect has been caused deliberately or negligently by You, or as a result of Your failure to follow instructions given by Us or as included with the Product.
   4. After the first six months after completion of the Plumbing Services, if any Product develops a fault, You must prove that the Product in question was faulty at the time We supplied it and You took ownership of it.

   2. We always use reasonable efforts to ensure that Our provision of the Plumbing Services is trouble-free. If, however, there is a problem with the Plumbing Services We request that You inform Us as soon as is reasonably possible. We will use reasonable efforts to remedy problems with the Plumbing Services as quickly as is reasonably possible and practical.
   3. We will not charge You for remedying problems under this Clause 9 where the problems have been caused by Us or where nobody is at fault].

   6. If the Plumbing Services are not performed in line with information that We have provided about them, You also have the right to request repeat performance or, if that is not possible or done within a reasonable time without inconvenience to You (or if Our breach concerns information about Us that does not relate to the performance of the Plumbing Services), You have the right to a reduction in price.
   7. If for any reason We are required to repeat the Plumbing Services in accordance with Your legal rights, We will not charge You for doing so and We will bear any and all costs of doing so. In cases where a price reduction applies, this may be any sum up to the full fees payable for the Plumbing Services and, where You have already made payment(s) to Us, may result in a full or partial refund. Any such refunds will be issued without undue delay (and in any event within 14 calendar days starting on the date on which We agree that You are entitled to the refund) and made via the same payment method originally used by You unless You request an alternative method.

13. Cancellation of Contract During the Cooling Off Period
    1. Where the Agreement is not made “on Our premises”, You have a statutory right to a “cooling off” period. This period begins once the contract between You and Us is formed and ends:
       1. in relation to any Products supplied, at the end of 14-calendar days after the date on which the Products are delivered. If the Products are delivered in instalments, the 14-calendar day period begins on the day that You receive the final instalment; and
       2. in relation to the Plumbing Services, at the end of 14-calendar days after the date on which the contract is formed.
    2. If You wish to cancel the Agreement within the cooling off period, You should inform Us immediately by a clear statement (e.g. a letter sent by post or email to the postal address or email address specified in these Terms and Conditions). You may use the Model Cancellation Form, but You do not have to.
    3. To meet the cancellation deadline, it is sufficient for You to send Your communication concerning the exercise of the right to cancel before the cancellation period has expired. 
    4. If You exercise this right to cancel You will receive a full refund of any amount paid to the Us in respect of the contract (including, but not limited to, the Deposit, where applicable).
    5. We will refund money using the same method used to make the payment, unless You have expressly agreed otherwise. In any case, You will not incur any fees as a result of the refund.
    6. We will process the refund due to You as a result of a cancellation without undue delay and, in any case, within the period of 14 calendar days after the day on which We are informed of the cancellation.
    7. If You exercise the right to cancel in relation to Products:
       1. We will issue a refund within 28 calendar days and in any event no later than 14 calendar days after We receive the relevant Products (and will include standard delivery charges if You send the Products to Us);
       2. You must return the Products to Us within 14 calendar days of the day on which You inform Us that You wish to cancel and return them;
       3. We may make a deduction from the refund for loss in value of any Products supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by You;
       4. Please also note that Products that become inseparably mixed with others cannot be returned.
    8. If the Start Date falls within the cooling off period, You must make an express request for provision of the Plumbing Services to begin within the 14-calendar day cooling off period. This request forms a normal part of the ordering process. By making such a request You acknowledge and agree to the following:
       1. If the Plumbing Services are completed within the 14-calendar day cooling off period, You will lose the right to cancel once the Plumbing Services are completed;
       2. If You cancel the Agreement after provision of the Plumbing Services has begun, You will be required to pay for the Plumbing Services and any Products that cannot be returned to Us supplied up until the point at which You inform Us of Your wish to cancel;
       3. The amount due will be calculated in proportion to the full price of the Plumbing Services and the actual Plumbing Services already provided. Any sums that have already been paid for the Plumbing Services will be refunded subject to deductions calculated on this basis;
       4. We will process any refund within 28 calendar days and in any event no later than 14 calendar days after You inform Us of Your wish to cancel.
    9. Clause 14 applies to the termination of the Agreement after the 14-calendar day cooling off period has elapsed.

14. Cancellation Outside of the Cooling Off Period
    1. In addition to Your rights in Clause 13 relating to the cooling off period, You may terminate the Agreement (i.e. cancel the Plumbing Services) at any time before the Start Date (if relevant):
       1. If You cancel the Plumbing Services after the 14 calendar day cooling off period has expired (or where it does not apply) and more than 7 calendar days before the Start Date, We will refund the Deposit, if applicable, and any other sums paid as soon as is reasonably possible, and in any event within 14 calendar days of cancellation.
       2. If You cancel the Plumbing Services after the 14 calendar day cooling off period has expired (or where it does not apply) and less than 7 calendar days before the Start Date, We will retain from the Deposit, if applicable, a sum to cover any net financial loss that We suffer due to the cancellation. We will refund the balance of the Deposit to You as soon as is reasonably possible, and in any event within 14 calendar days of cancellation. If Our net financial loss is more than the amount of the Deposit (and/or if no Deposit has been paid), We will invoice You for the shortfall and You will be required to make payment in accordance with Clause 6. 
    2. We may need to terminate the Agreement before the Start Date due to the unavailability of required personnel or materials, or due to the occurrence of an event outside of Our reasonable control.

We have included the information itself either in the Agreement or Quotation for You to see, or We will make it available to You before You accept the Quotation and sign the Agreement. All of that information will, as required by the Regulations, be part of the terms of Our contract with You as a Consumer.
    2. As required by the Regulations:
       1. all of the information described in sub-Clause 21.1; and
       2. any other information which We give to You about the Plumbing Services, or about Us or Our business which you take into account when deciding to accept the Quotation and sign the Agreement, or when making any other decision about the Plumbing Services, will be a part of the terms of Our contract with You as a Consumer.

    3. Any dispute, controversy, proceedings or claim between You and Us relating to these Terms and Conditions, the Agreement, or the relationship between You and Us (whether contractual or otherwise) shall be subject to the jurisdiction of the courts of England, Wales, Scotland, or Northern Ireland, as determined by Your residency.
