Terms & Conditions

1. OUR CONTRACT WITH YOU:

1.1 These are the terms on which we will carry out the work for you. Please ensure that you read them carefully before asking our engineer to begin the work. We have highlighted those terms that you should pay particular attention to.
1.2 When you telephone us, we will take details of the work you need us to carry out, your credit or debit card details and will arrange a time slot for an engineer to visit you. Please note that we reserve the right to refuse to accept certain credit and debit cards.

2. CARRYING OUT THE JOB

2.1 We will supply you with a date and time when we will arrive to begin carrying out the work. We will give you an estimate of how long the work will take to complete, however, this will only be an estimate and the work may take more or less time than we have anticipated.
2.2 We will try to get to you as soon as possible and where possible before the time slot we have allocated to you, if, when we book the job we consider the circumstances you have described to us are an emergency. However, this might not be possible if an event occurs which is outside of our control (see below).
2.3 We will make every effort to arrive and to complete the work on time. However, we will not be liable or responsible for any delay or failure to carry out the work, due to an event outside our control such as poor traffic conditions, poor weather conditions or the failure of public or private telecommunications networks. If such an event happens, we will let you know as soon as possible and you can cancel the job if you no longer want us to carry out the work. We may cancel the job if the event lasts for more than 4 weeks.
2.4 To enable us to carry out the work you will need to:
(a) provide us with access to the premises and any services and facilities we need to carry out the work;
(b) ensure that the premises are clear and safe for us to access and that you own the premises and do not need the consent of another person to enable us to carry out the work;
(c) ensure that any materials you provide to enable us to carry out the work are suitable. If you fail to do so we may not be able to carry out the work and you may need to contact us to arrange a further visit.
2.5 When our engineer has completed the job he will complete a job sheet (Job Sheet) and will provide a copy to you. This will include the time he arrived at the premises, the work carried out, the time that the work was completed and the price to be paid by you. You will be asked to sign the Job Sheet to confirm that this information is correct. If you think that any of the information listed on the Job Sheet is inaccurate, please telephone us on 0800 331 7070 or write to us at Rightio Limited, Radclyffe House, 66 Hagley Road, Birmingham, B16 8PF or email customer@rightio.co.uk. We shall assign a Job Number to the job which will be written on the Job Sheet. Please quote the Job Number in all subsequent correspondence with us relating to the job.

3. PRICE AND PAYMENT

3.1 The price you pay will include a charge for labour, parts and materials and VAT. Labour will be charged from the moment that our engineer arrives at your premises at the hourly rate specified on the Job Sheet. For example if our engineer is at your premises for 45 minutes and charges £100 per hour, we will charge you £100 for the work. Please note that we will charge for any time spent by our engineer diagnosing the work to be carried out.
3.2 When the engineer has completed the work, he will complete the Job Sheet and we will take the total price stated on the Job Sheet from your credit or debit card. Please note that if the payment we take the card from is not guaranteed we may add a 2% administration charge to the payment we take from your card and we may need to ask a third party to authorise your payment.
3.3 We may ask you to make a payment in advance if we think that the cost of the parts or labour is likely to be more than equivalent to 1 hour’s work. If we have taken a payment in advance, the balance owed to us will be taken from your credit or debit card when we have finished the work. We will refund the payment in advance to you if you cancel the job.

4. OUR LIABILITY TO YOU

4.1 If we fail to comply with these terms, we are responsible for any loss or damage you suffer that is a foreseeable result of our breach of the terms or our negligence. Loss or damage is foreseeable if it is an obvious consequence of our breach or if they were contemplated by you and us at the time we entered into this contract.
4.2 We will make good any damages caused to your property by us during the course of carrying out the work. 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 carrying out the work or if we cause damage having to gain access to your property or any hidden pipes or drains to enable us to carry out the work (except where we have been negligent).
4.3 The work we carry out is for domestic and private use and as such we will not be liable for any loss of profit to your business, loss of business, business interruption, or loss of business opportunity.
