We, us, our and similar expressions refer to Marcus James Domestic & Commercial Services Pty Ltd ABN 45 613 362 753 trading as Complete Doors Sydney and you, your and similar expressions, refer to you, our customer or proposed customer as named in any purchase order, written quotation or document setting out details of the goods and services agreed to be supplied by us (“Our Quote“). These terms and conditions apply to any supply of our goods and/or services to you.
1. Price
Prices for goods and services are based on rates and costs at the date of the contract and are inclusive of GST unless stated otherwise in Our Quote. We reserve our right to increase the price for goods and services after we have accepted an order to cover the full amount of any increase in GST, duties, customs or other taxes or other additional costs that are discovered upon inspection of the installation site, such as unforeseen additional work that is required due to the condition of the installation site before your goods can be properly installed (Additional Costs). If the Additional Costs exceed the original amount in Our Quote by 50% or more before we commence production of the goods, then you may cancel the order within five (5) business days. If you validly cancel, we will refund 80% of the Deposit paid and retain 10% of the original price of Our Quote. The price in Our Quote excludes the following unless expressly stated otherwise:
- cost of repair of existing door jambs/frames
- painting
- staining
- electrical
- plumbing
- tiling
- rendering
- waste disposal of old doors ($75 per door), and
- other trade works that may be required.
2. Payment
If you accept Our Quote, you must attend to payment of the 50% deposit in relation to Our Quote (Deposit) on our website at www.completedoorssydney.com.au (Website), by direct transfer to our account or by credit card over the telephone. By paying the Deposit you are making us an offer to purchase (Order). The agreement between you and us in respect of the Order will be formed and binding once your payment of the Deposit has been received by us.
Upon receipt of your Deposit and after we have attended at the installation site for final measurements and inspection, we will commence custom production of the Order and then upon completion of the custom production, arrange with you to attend to installation of the goods.
The balance of Our Quote and any Additional Costs will become due and payable immediately upon completion of the installation of your Order. Payment of the balance can be made on our Website. All payments are final, and your Order is non-transferrable.
3. Orders
Upon payment of the Deposit, you cannot cancel an Order unless we agree in writing to the contrary or in the circumstances as described in clause 1. You should therefore check your Quote carefully before paying your Deposit. If we agree that you can cancel an Order, you must pay us a reasonable cancellation fee. Each accepted order comprises a separate contract incorporating these terms and conditions unless agreed otherwise in writing by us.
An Order that has been accepted by us may be cancelled by us at any time for any reason, including but not limited to the following circumstances:
- if we suspect that you are acting fraudulently
- if there has been an inadvertent error in the pricing of a product
- if there is an unforeseen shortage of supply which results in the goods being unavailable.
If cancellation is due to a shortage of supply or error in pricing we will refund the total of the Deposit paid by you except in relation to any financial institution fees incurred by you in paying the Deposit.
4. Default in payment
You must pay interest at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum calculated on a daily basis on any moneys that is due and payable but remains unpaid until payment is made in full, plus any costs or expenses (including legal costs and expenses on a full indemnity basis) that we incur in relation to seeking payment from you.
