Print T&C's
​
1 - YOU SIGN IT WE PRINT IT
It’s always unfortunate and costly to find mistakes in the artwork after you have printed a
large run, so before we go ahead with any printing we will e-mail you a link to proof and
sign the artwork for production. Please bear in mind that the printing process begins from
the moment we receive your signed approval and that any reprints requested due to errors
found in the artwork subsequent to receiving your signed approval will be charged as a
separate order.
​
2 - MATERIALS & QUANTITIES
As time passes, our material manufacturers may change their formulas and recipes, so we
cannot guarantee that you will receive the exact paper quality, colour or grammage (gsm)
of what was printed on in the past or of a previous sample sent to you. Additionally, in
very rare cases, the quantity of the printed goods may vary 2% above or under the quantity
ordered. This could simply be down to a machine malfunction or a human error. Just let us
know and we’ll get it sorted.
​
3 - QUALITY & DEFECTS
Although we take great care in delivering your order in the very best condition, rarely, you
may receive a defective product. We consider defects to be the result of our machines
playing up or our products not meeting our quality standards. This does not include differences in colour, for
example, if the artwork was supplied in the wrong colour format, or if the quality of the
artwork supplied was poor (e.g. low resolution). To supply your artwork in the best
printing format, please ask for our artwork guide.
​
All defects in your delivered products, installation works or installation removal orders must be reported within 24 hours of product delivery or 3 hours of installation works / installation removals / or work done by our installation team with pictures demonstrating the defects as we cannot be responsible for any damage caused to the products by third parties once they have been installed or delivered.

Design T&C's
​
1 - YOUR VISION IN 3 REVISIONS
Our design services include 3 design revisions, where you can
change whatever you please with each design draft. If it’s not spot on by the 3rd draft, you
can request additional drafts, starting at £30. Please ask us for our full price list.
​
2 - SCAN IT PROOF IT APPROVE IT
Please take all the time you need for proofreading your artwork after each revision, then
forward any changes you may have. Make sure you’re 110% certain that the content in
your artwork is accurate by the 3rd and final draft. This allows you to stick to your budget
and avoid any additional design adjustment costs.
​
3 - YOU WRITE IT WE DESIGN IT
Whilst we make sure things look exceptional, we do ask you for one favour: To provide
any material required to complete the project, this is including photos and text. We do
offer copywriting, photography and stock image services should you require a professional
touch to your content. Ask for our prices.
​
4 - DON’T BE A COPYCAT
When providing us content, please be completely certain that you hold all appropriate
copyright, permissions and licences before asking us to use it. By working with us, you
agree to protect and hold us harmless against any and all claims, costs, and expenses for
asking us to use content that shouldn’t have been used. To put it simply, it would save us
both a lot of faff!
