Installation Terms & Conditions
ABOUT DELIVERY AND FREE INSTALLATION SERVICE
- ACCESS – All of our sheds are made in large manageable sections to be transported easily into your garden via outside (side) access. Most sheds are not made to be carried through properties. However, at an extra cost we do offer a cut down (easy access) service, in most cases, which will allow us to transport your shed through your property in smaller manageable sections (please call for advise). PLEASE clarify this before production starts!
If necessary, please remove fence panels or any obstructions
i.e. overhanging trees, branches, gutters etc. If there are gates, there must be no arches, bars or lintels. We are not able to lift panels over high obstaclesas panels are extremely heavy and
can pose a health and safety risk.
Access through neighbouring properties – If the only access to your base is through a neighbouring property, it is the responsibility of the customer to organise this and seek permission to do so. Panels can be extremely heavy to manage and getting panels through and over fences can be difficult, especially whilst trying to be mindful of fences and vegetation. All risks associated with this including damage to fences, boarders, plants etc are the customers responsibility.
- PARKING – We use 6m long Mercedes Benz Sprinter flatbed vans to delivery your building. Appropriate parking is essential for the duration of your installation. If a parking permit is needed, please provide this at the time of delivery or notify us of any meter charges so we can add this to your delivery charge.
- INSTALLATION – Please remember that the size of the shed ordered DOES NOT include the roof overhang sizes. You should ideally leave a MINIMUM of 12” (300mm) between any fence, wall or base so we can install your shed to our best standard and for future maintenance. Although we realise this is not always possible, an absolute minimum of 150mm is essential.
- BASES – The perfect base is a concrete base which is completely flat and level. The size of the base needs only to be exactly the same size as thebuilding ordered. No smaller, larger is fine.
If you have opted for one of our bearer bases, you will need to prepare the area for where the shed is to be situated. Ground should be stripped back,levelled and a shingle bed laid in order for the bearer frame to sit in snug. We will bring packing and wooden stakes in order to firm up the frame on theday. We will endeavour to level a base to a maximum fall of 60mm. We are unable to level a bearer frame on a slope.
If you are building a wooden frame yourself, it is important you contact us to check the orientation of the floor bearers. Your floor will have 25 x 50mm bearers at 300mm centres (approx) running underneath and an adequate number of timber bearers must be used to avoid a “bouncing” floor.
Please do remember that we offer a free installation service for your new garden shed ONLY. Installers are not employed to rectify your base, cut trees,shrubs, bushes or to move obstacles that block access.
- ABORTED INSTALLATIONS – We make every effort to ensure your garden building is installed on the day agreed. If we are unable to install yourbuilding through no fault of Ace Sheds Ltd, we reserve the right to the following options:
- Leave your building safely for you to install yourself along with all fixings.
- Leave your building safely for us to return at a later date to install once any problems preventing us from installing are rectified. Please see tablefor charges:
