  1. OUR GOODS 

5.1 General Descriptive Matter. All specifications, drawings and particulars of weights, dimensions, capacity, or other details contained in this website are intended to provide a general idea of our Goods but will not form part of the Contract.

 

5.2 Samples. Natural stone products are likely to show variations in structure, veining, colour, and thickness. Any samples provided can be considered as an approximate rather than exact representation of the product in question.

 

5.3 Calibration. The tolerances involved, and as directed by BS EN1341, on riven, naturally split paving is problematic to be definitive on and in addition to the natural elements of way a slab splits from the block only adds to the complexity of accurately measuring the thickness.  The way the slab splits may result in the calibrated underside not being fully sawn also. 

 

The calibrated thickness spec we quote are 18mm and 24mm on Talasey standard products, that has a +/-3mm tolerance applied.   However, on a riven, split stone means the tolerance on the ‘riven-ness’ could be up to +20mm above the nominal.  We work to an average thickness.

The standards we work to are industry standards and thickness will be measured the same by all major suppliers.  ‘In-house’ consideration to what is acceptable for how riven the face is may not be the same with each manufacturer,  but we would generally consider if a high spot is much above 5 or 6mm then it’s a trip hazard, and not look very nice either.

 

5.4 Rectified Porcelain paving. Our Rectified ranges are accurately machine cut to their nominal size. Our Rectified ranges are manufactured to industry standard plan size tolerances as a minimum, some ranges are tighter at +/-1mm. With Rectified, the nominal size will be the same for each batch and each individual project, if you are a regular user. Design Guidance: • Our Rectified ranges being square cut edges, allow for tighter joints if desired, with less variation than when compared with Non-Rectified. We’d recommend joint widths of between 3mm to 15mm.

 

5.5 Non-Rectified Porcelain paving. The edges of our Non-Rectified ranges are as fired and moulded; they are sorted into work sizes batches as they come out of the kiln. Each individual work size batch has industry standard tolerances of +/-2mm. To explain further; there are up to ten potential work sizes that your batch could come in. Your batch will be identified as either, work size 1, through to perhaps work size 10. For example, your nominal size may be 600mm x 600mm, but you may receive a batch sorted into work size 1 giving tiles measured nominally at 594mm x 594mm. We will give you your entire order from the same production batch so it actually makes no difference as you install. Always check for batch match across packs prior to unpacking.

  

Some porcelains can have some bow and warp to them due to the nature of manufacturing, through the heating and cooling processes.  The batches do go through Quality Control at the manufacturing plant, to check that they are within the industry standard specification.  As with many of these BS & EN standards for our industry some of the measurement methods are not as straightforward as you may think and not easily measured, particularly on site.  Bowing is measured with a tolerance on the centre curvature for surface flatness with an industry standard of +/- 2mm and warpage is +/-2mm too.  Both are measured across the diagonal on the flag from corner to corner.   When measured properly at the manufacturing plant a measuring table, height gauges and a dial test indicator are used.

 

5.6 Breakages. Please allow for 10% of breakages with any and all orders of paving products.

 

5.7 Performance. Unless any performance figures, tolerances or characteristics have been specifically and expressly warranted by us in writing, we shall be under no liability whatsoever for any failure to attain such figures whether attributable to our negligence or otherwise.

The responsibility for ensuring that Goods are sufficient and suitable for your requirements, remain your sole responsibility save insofar as we have specifically advised you in writing that the Goods are sufficient and suitable for the your purposes, having been fully and accurately advised by you of your requirements.

To reduce this, we recommend an application of a spirit-based wood preservative upon installation and annually thereafter. Hardy Landscaping Supplies Ltd do offer a treatment service, please ask for details.

  15. TIMBER INFORMATION When placing an order, you understand the inherent properties of timber which will affect your timber product to a lesser or greater degree: Timber is a natural product and prone to changes in appearance, including some movement and the occurrence of small knot holes or splits in extreme temperatures and weather conditions. Any splits, knots or similar visual imperfections in the timber will not affect the structural integrity of the product in any way, are not considered to be damage, and do not render the product unfit for purpose. Whilst every effort is made to hand pick timber without visible knotholes or splits there may be occasions where timber is selected in good faith that contains what appears to be a solid knot. Over the course of time / during movement of the product etc it may occur that these small knot holes are then dislodged from the timber leaving a small knot or crack. Unfortunately, we cannot be held responsible for this maturing of the product and can only offer our best advice as how to deal with this situation in the unlikely event that it should occur. When measuring timber for the purpose of technical information the absolute external dimensions will be taken from a sample piece of each component used – it should be noted that due to the complex nature of the product and machining processes that this figure will give an average measurement that could be subject to slight variance throughout the rest of the individual boards in the pack measured. Whilst every effort will be made to select only components which match the average advertised sizing this is subject to the availability of the timber that has been machined and cannot be guaranteed.
  16. Building Regulations: None of our buildings, structures or products comply to building regulations as standard. To comply to building standards other elements will need to be added such as fire proofing, insulation, safety glass and foundations. Please contact your building control office for the requirements needed to meet building regulations.
  17. Planning Permission: We can advise on planning permission when asked but we will take no responsibility for this advice should it be incorrect. Please always check with your local planning office for any rules in your area and make yourself aware of the regulations pertaining to your purchase.
    NO responsibility is accepted for non-compliance with building regulations or planning requirements pertaining to your situation – Please ensure you have thoroughly checked these requirements if pertinent to you.
  18. Force Majeure. In no event shall the company be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder arising out of or caused by, directly or indirectly, forces beyond our control, including without limitations any act, event, non-happening, omission, or accident as stated below.
