If you think that there is a mistake, please contact Us to discuss. We will confirm any changes in writing to avoid any confusion between you and Us.

If We are unable to supply you with the Services, We will inform you of this in writing and We will not process the Order.
2.4 These Terms will become binding on you and Us when We issue you with a written acceptance of an Order at which point a contract will come into existence between you and Us.
2.5 If any of these Terms conflict with any term of the Order, the Order will take priority.
2.6 We shall assign an Order number to the Order and inform you of it when We confirm the Order. Please quote the Order number in all subsequent correspondence with Us relating to the Order.
3. CHANGES TO ORDER OR TERMS
3.1 We may revise these Terms from time to time in the following circumstances:
(a) changes in relevant laws and regulatory requirements.
3.2 If We have to revise these Terms under clause 3.1, We will give you at least one month's written notice of any changes to these Terms before they take effect. You can choose to cancel the contract in accordance with clause 11.
3.3 You may make a change to the Order for the Services at any time before the start date for the Services by contacting Us. Where this means a change in the total price of the Works, We will notify you of the amended price in writing.
3.4 You can choose to cancel the Order in accordance with clause 11.1 in these circumstances.
3.5 If you wish to cancel an Order before it has been fulfilled, please see your right to do so in clause 11.
3.6 All variations must be agreed in writing using Our standard Variation Form. We will not proceed with any additional work until a written Variation has been accepted by You. Where urgent works are required, We reserve the right to proceed on a time and materials basis and provide a retrospective cost breakdown within 7 days.
3.7 Variations shall be priced using the rates set out in the original Quotation or, if not applicable, on a fair and reasonable basis taking into account time, materials, subcontractor costs, and overheads. Daywork may be used only where agreed in writing.
3.8 Where the Quotation includes a provisional sum, it is an estimate for work that is not yet fully defined. Final cost will be agreed once the scope is confirmed and invoiced as a Variation.
3.9 Any work or materials not expressly described in the Quotation or Specification are excluded from the Services. Requests for additional tasks or changes must be confirmed in writing using Our Variation Form and may be subject to additional charges.
4. THE SERVICES
4.1 We will supply the Services to you from the date set out in the Specification until the completion date set out in the Order.
4.2 We will make every effort to complete the Services on time. However, there may be delays due to an Event Outside Our Control. See clause 10 for Our responsibilities when an Event Outside Our Control happens.
4.3 We may have to suspend the Services if We have to deal with technical problems. We will contact you to let you know in advance where this occurs, unless the problem is urgent or an emergency. You do not have to pay for the Services while they are suspended under this clause 4.3 but this does not affect your obligation to pay for any invoices We have already sent you.
4.4 If you do not pay Us for the Services when you are supposed to as set out in clause 8.3, We may suspend the Services with immediate effect until you have paid Us the outstanding amounts (except where you dispute an invoice under clause 8.5). We will contact you to tell you this. This does not affect Our right to charge you interest under clause 8.4.
4.5 Where You delay access, provide insufficient instructions, or fail to approve necessary decisions (including Variations) within 7 days of request, We reserve the right to suspend the Services and issue an interim invoice for the value of works to date and any resulting standby or remobilisation costs.
4.6 Either party shall promptly notify the other if it becomes aware of any matter that may affect the cost, timing, or delivery of the Services. Both parties shall act in good faith to mitigate the impact of such risks and explore potential solutions.
4.7 If You request that We delay or pause the Services for reasons unrelated to Our performance, We reserve the right to charge for any reasonable standby, storage, or remobilisation costs incurred.
4.8 Where the Services are delivered in defined stages or phases, practical completion and invoicing may occur for each completed phase. Each phase shall be considered independently complete and invoiced accordingly, with snagging items addressed per phase.
4.9 We may appoint subcontractors at Our discretion. We remain responsible for their performance and compliance with this Contract.
5. IF THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE SERVICES
5.1 In the unlikely event that there is any defect with the Services:
(a) please contact Us and tell Us as soon as reasonably possible;
(b) please give Us a reasonable opportunity to repair or fix any defect;
(c) where a defect relates to a product, finish, or system covered by a manufacturer’s guarantee or specification, We will carry out appropriate remedial work in line with that guidance;
(d) You acknowledge that not all defects require replacement. Defects that do not materially impair the safety, function, or expected lifespan of the works may be resolved by repair. In such cases, remedial action may include repairs, adjustments, or surface corrections where these restore the function, durability, and reasonable appearance of the works. This includes structural issues that can be competently and safely repaired onsite, as well as cosmetic defects where some visual variation may remain but does not affect performance. Minor visual imperfections are considered acceptable where they are consistent with recognised industry practice. Full replacement will only be required where repair is not reasonably practicable or where it would compromise the safety or performance of the works.
You will not have to pay for Us to repair or fix a defect with the Services under this clause 5.1.
5.2 In the event that You and We are unable to agree a solution to the problem You and We agree to refer the matter in the first instance to British Association of Landscape Industries (BALI)’s Dispute Resolution Service. BALI, Landscape House, Stoneleigh Park, Warwickshire, CV8 2LG. BALI website: www.bali.org.uk; telephone 024 7669 033.
5.3 In the event that the problem remains unresolved through the BALI Complaints Procedure, both parties may agree to the appointment of an independent adjudicator. Where agreement cannot be reached within 14 days as to which adjudicator should be used and both parties give written notice of this then both parties may refer the dispute back to BALI.
5.4 The Complaints Committee of BALI, at the request of both You and Us, may offer an adjudicator. The adjudicator will be independent and will conduct such adjudication in accordance with best industry practice.
5.5 If no resolution is achieved via BALI or adjudication within 45 days of referral, either party may refer the dispute to mediation in accordance with the Centre for Effective Dispute Resolution (CEDR) Rules. If mediation fails, the matter may be referred to arbitration under the Arbitration Act 1996.
5.6 Our Liability to You
5.6.1 If We fail to comply with these Terms, We are responsible for loss or damage you suffer that is a foreseeable result of Our breach of the Terms or Our negligence, but We are not responsible for any loss or damage that is not foreseeable. Loss or damage is foreseeable if they were an obvious consequence of Our breach or if they were contemplated by you and Us at the time we entered into this contract.
5.6.2 If We are providing Services in your property, We will make good any damage to your property caused by Us in the course of installation or performance. However, We are not responsible for the cost of repairing any pre-existing faults or damage to your property that We discover in the course of installation and/or performance of the Services by Us.
5.6.3 We only supply the Services for domestic and private use. You agree not to use the Services for any commercial, business or re-sale purpose, and We have no liability to you for any loss of profit, loss of business, business interruption, or loss of business opportunity.

(e) defective products under the Consumer Protection Act 1987.
5.6.7 Except as set out in Clause 5.6.6, Our total liability to You under or in connection with this Contract shall not exceed the value of the Contract or £100,000, whichever is lower. This limitation applies to all claims in contract, tort (including negligence), or otherwise.
5.7 We warrant that the Services shall be performed with reasonable skill and care and in accordance with recognised industry standards. Subject to Clause 8.12, We will rectify any defects in workmanship that arise within 12 months of the date of practical completion, provided they are not due to misuse, lack of maintenance, or third-party interference. This warranty does not apply to materials or products where a manufacturer’s guarantee applies.
6. THE SITE
6.1 You agree to give Us full possession of the Site together with proper and adequate access to allow Us to carry out the Services from the Commencement Date.
6.2 You warrant that the Site is free of springs, flooding, rock, tree stumps (unless specified to be removed under the Services/Order), mine workings, covered wells, or other cavities, running sand, service pipes and cables, sewage or land drains, foundations and sub-structure of former buildings or other hazards or obstructions which are not reasonably apparent by visual inspection of the surface of the Site or which have not been made known by You to Us in writing prior to the date of the Quotation.
6.3 Without prejudice to your rights and remedies, where you are in breach of clause 6.1 above and the Site is found to be affected by problems described in clause 6.2 and additional Services are necessary to complete the Order, We shall inform you of the same and:
(a) provide you with a further quotation with an estimate of the cost to undertake the additional work to deal with the problems identified;
(b) the further quotation will be valid for 7 days;
(c) in the event that the further quotation is not accepted by You within the 7 days specified, We reserve the right to terminate this contract in accordance with clause 12 Our Right to cancel.
6.4 From the Commencement Date, risk in any delivered Materials and Works in progress shall pass to You upon delivery to the Site. We shall not be liable for any loss or damage caused by third parties, theft, fire, weather, or other risks after delivery, except where such loss or damage results from Our negligence.
6.5 You shall indemnify and keep indemnified Us against any loss, damage, liability, or expense (including legal costs) arising from the negligence or wilful acts or omissions of You, Your contractors, or agents, which result in delay to the Services, damage to Our property, or injury to Our personnel.
6.6 During the course of the Services, incidental environmental effects such as dust, dirt, vibration, disturbance, or similar by-products may arise as a natural and unavoidable consequence of construction and landscaping work. While We will take reasonable care to minimise disruption and protect surrounding areas, You acknowledge that such side effects are to be reasonably expected. We shall not be liable for cleaning, restoring, or compensating for such incidental effects unless caused directly by Our gross negligence or wilful misconduct.
6.7 You shall provide free of charge, reasonable access to electricity, water on Site, or notify Us in advance if these are unavailable. You are responsible for ensuring that all necessary planning permissions, consents, or approvals are obtained before commencement. You shall ensure that the Site is free from personal items and any obstructions that may hinder safe working practices. We are not responsible for delays caused by Your failure to meet these obligations.
6.8 We shall not be liable for delays, damage, or defects caused by any third-party contractor engaged directly by You unless such issues arise as a result of Our negligence. If We are required to coordinate with third-party contractors, this must be agreed in writing in advance and may be subject to an additional charge.
6.9 You agree to present the Site in a reasonably clean, safe, and accessible condition prior to the Commencement Date. This includes cutting overgrown grass, removing domestic waste or furniture, and clearing any non-construction related debris unless otherwise agreed in writing. Where the Site is left in a state of disrepair, neglect, or poor accessibility that results in additional preparation, clearance, or disposal work, We reserve the right to charge for the associated time, materials, labour, and waste handling as a Variation. If significant unnotified clearance is required, We may pause commencement until an agreement is reached.
6.10 You warrant that any information, instructions, measurements, drawings, or specifications provided by You or on Your behalf (including by your designers, consultants, or other representatives) are complete, accurate, and suitable for the intended purpose. You acknowledge that these documents and communications represent Your interpretation of Your needs and intentions. It is not Our responsibility to test, validate, or interpret their meaning beyond the scope of delivering the Services as instructed. We shall not be liable for any issues, delays, or additional costs arising from reliance on such information where it proves to be inaccurate, unclear, or incomplete. This clause shall not apply where We are expressly engaged to provide design services under a separate written agreement, in which case Our design obligations shall be defined within that agreement.
7. MATERIALS
7.1 Where Materials have been used at the Site or where such Materials are used to provide the Services to fulfil the Order, ownership shall pass to You once used at the Site or incorporated into the Services;
7.2 Where materials are delivered to the Site awaiting use or incorporation into the Services ownership shall remain with us;
7.3 You and We may agree payment for Materials whether they are at the Site or off Site. Where payment has been agreed and made, you will take ownership and the Materials will be identified as such;
7.4 As between the You and Us, all Intellectual Property Rights and all other rights in the Materials and Services shall be owned by Us. Subject to clause 7.2, We licence all such rights to You free of charge and on a non-exclusive, worldwide basis to such extent as is necessary to enable You to make reasonable use of the Materials and the Services. If this agreement is terminated, this licence will automatically terminate.
7.5 You acknowledge that, where We do not own any of the Materials, your use of rights in the Materials is conditional on Us obtaining a written licence (or sub-licence) from the relevant licensor or licensors on such terms as will entitle Us to license such rights to You.
7.6 All plants, trees and turf supplied shall be true in name and healthy when planted. Replacement of any plants found to be defective during the first growing season after planting shall be at the sole discretion of Us. Replacement will only be made if You have maintained the plants properly and You have advised Us promptly in writing as soon as any damage becomes apparent and We have had the opportunity to inspect such plants;
7.7 Grass seed supplied shall conform to EU Specification and shall have been tested. You acknowledge that a lawn or meadow cannot be made in one season because several seasons, careful cultivation, weeding and feeding are essential;
7.8 You acknowledge that any Site is free from weeds and that accumulated weed growth and that dormant weed cannot be eradicated in certain locations and that We shall have no liability for any subsequent weed growth.
7.9 All materials bought on site by the Contractor, which prove to be in excess of his requirements, shall remain the property of and shall be removable by the Contractor who shall have the right to enter the site for that purpose.
7.10 Materials delivered to site become the responsibility of the Client, and the Contractor accepts no responsibility for loss, damage or expense after delivery of the materials to site for any reason, including pilfering while materials are on site during the course of the contract works, where such losses are beyond the Contractors reasonable control.
8. PRICE AND PAYMENT
8.1 The price of the Services will be set out in the Quotation and Specification attached to these Terms in force at the time We confirm the Order. Our prices may change at any time, but price changes will not affect the Order that We have confirmed with you, subject to clause 8.6.
8.2 These prices include VAT. However, if the rate of VAT changes between the date of the Specification and the date of delivery or performance, We will adjust the rate of VAT that you pay, unless you have already paid for the Services in full before the change in the rate of VAT takes effect. Where VAT is not applicable this will be detailed in the Specification attached to these Terms.
8.3 Where We are providing Materials to you, We will ask you to make an advance payment of 35% of the price of the Services. Your rights to a refund on cancellation are set out in clause 11. We will invoice you for the balance of the Services on or any time after We have performed the Services, or a percentage of the Services. Each invoice will quote the Specification number. You must pay each invoice in cleared monies within 7 calendar days at the date of invoice. Payment terms will be set out in the Quotation.
8.4 If you do not make any payment due to Us by the due date for payment, We may charge interest to you on the overdue amount at the rate of 3% a year above the base lending rate of the Bank of England from time to time. This interest shall accrue on a daily basis from the due date until the date of actual payment of the overdue amount, whether before or after judgment. You must pay Us interest together with any overdue amount.
8.5 If you wish to dispute an invoice, you must notify Us in writing within 5 working days of the date of the invoice, clearly identifying the nature of the dispute and the amount in dispute. You shall not be entitled to withhold payment of any undisputed amount. If no such notice is received within this period, the invoice shall be deemed accepted and payable in full.
8.6 We reserve the right to adjust the contract sum in relation to fluctuations to the cost of labour, materials, goods, fuel and electricity including changes to taxes and statutory duties affecting these. Both parties are to agree the amounts prior to commencement. Any changes to be advised by writing as soon as reasonably foreseeable.
8.7 Late Payment Remedies If payment is not received by the due date, in addition to charging interest as set out in Clause 8.4:
(a) We reserve the right to pause all Services and withhold further deliveries or works until payment is received in full;
(b) We may require full prepayment for any future work;
(c) We reserve the right to instruct a third-party debt collection agency, and You shall be liable for all reasonable fees incurred as a result;
(d) We may issue a Notice of Breach and terminate the contract under Clause 12.3 if payment is not made within 7 days of written notice;

8.8 Where the Services are delayed for more than 30 calendar days due to Client action or inaction, We reserve the right to review the contract sum to reflect any changes in labour, material, or fuel costs since the original start date.
8.9 Final Payment and Retention A final invoice will be issued upon substantial completion of the Services. Substantial completion means that the Services have been carried out to a stage where they are useable and functional, subject only to minor snagging items. The Client shall pay 95% of the final invoice value within 7 days of the date of invoice. The remaining 5% (the retention) may be withheld solely for the purpose of addressing identified snagging items. The retention shall be released in full within 14 days of Us completing the snagging items, or if no snagging list is issued in writing within 7 working days of practical completion, the retention shall become due in full.
8.10 Practical completion shall be deemed to occur when the Services are, in Our reasonable opinion, materially complete and useable for their intended purpose, notwithstanding minor defects or snagging that do not prevent use or occupation.
8.11 While We will always make every effort to meet agreed timelines, We shall not be liable for any loss of use, consequential loss, loss of profit, or delay damages (including liquidated damages or penalties) arising from late completion or disruption to other contractors or project sequencing, unless such delay is caused solely by Our failure to act with reasonable care and skill and results in direct, quantifiable loss.
8.12 We will return to address any defects reported within 30 calendar days of practical completion, provided they are not caused by misuse, neglect, or lack of maintenance. This does not affect Your statutory rights.
8.13 Unless otherwise agreed in writing, responsibility for maintenance of the completed Works transfers to the Client on practical completion.
