10-Year Earlswood Garden Building Guarantee
Every Garden Building purchased from Earlswood Garden & Landscape Centre (“EGLC”) comes with a 10-year guarantee on the wooden structure and a 12-month Guarantee against poor workmanship, leakage, door sticking and lock failure. Buildings will all have been pre-treated with Barrettine Dark Brown dipping treatment unless the customer has selected an untreated building.
The EGLC guarantee covers the wooden structure against:
• rot
• decay
• insect infestation (Wasp Nests excluded)
Please note: The guarantee does not cover timber splits or warping which may occur naturally over time. As timber is a natural product it is important that you treat your Garden Building within 6 months of installation and once a year thereafter (immediately if an untreated Garden Building is purchased). Please keep your receipt for your records as this forms part of your guarantee.
VALIDITY OF GUARANTEE
To comply with the conditions of the guarantee:
• If the Customer elects to assemble, instructions which are supplied with each building should be adhered to comply with the conditions of the guarantee.
• If any part of pre-treated timber is cut, notched, or drilled then an approved cut-end treatment should be applied to comply with the conditions of the guarantee.
• A suitable timber treatment, we would recommend Barrettine Wood Preserver or Barrettine wood protective treatment or treatment of a similar standard, should be applied both outside and inside within 6 months of first build (for untreated buildings immediately then 6 months thereafter) and then applied every 12 months to maintain the appearance of the timber and to comply with the conditions of the guarantee. The application and/or mixing guidelines provided by the manufacturer of the timber treatment should be followed.
INVALID GUARANTEE
We reserve the right not to honour claims under this Guarantee at our discretion, in any circumstances, which include, but are not limited to, the following:
• If the building has been customised or modified in any way.
• The person claiming is not the original purchaser of the building.
• The building has not been treated as outlined in the Validity of the Guarantee Section above.
• The building has not been erected on a suitable sized flat, solid level concrete / slab base.
• The building has not been erected, fitted, or installed correctly.
• The building is or has been placed within 2 feet (60cm) of any obstruction (walls, tress, fences etc) which can allow moisture to penetrate the timber.
