Bagged goods and products deemed as perishable (including products supplied in our jumbo/bulk bags) are not eligible for return.

Bricks: It is advised to alternate the packs when laying your bricks, this is to prevent banding. As bricks are made from natural materials, variations in colour and size are inevitable. Alternating the pallets during use helps to prevent visible “banding” on completed work.

Porcelain Tiles: It is strongly advised that you check the batch numbers on the packaging of your porcelain tiles prior to laying. Porcelain is manufactured in large batches, and variation in colour, tone, and surface texture is normal between different production runs.
