DELIVERY OF ORDERS
The products available on the website can be exclusively delivered in the following territories: Spain, France, Portugal, Belgium, Holland, Luxembourg, Germany, Italy and Austria.
The transport service is managed by a specialised external company. The nature of our products, bulky and heavy goods, requires an agreed date for delivery. After notification by us of the shipment of the goods, the transport company will contact the customer within the next few days to arrange a delivery date once the goods are in the city of destination.
The product shall be deemed to have been delivered when the customer or a third party designated by the customer, other than the carrier, has acquired material possession of the product. The delivery of orders will be made to the postal delivery address freely designated by the client during the registration or purchasing process, once the payment has been made and confirmed.
In no case will texence be held responsible when the delivery of the product does not take place as a consequence of the data provided by the client being untrue, inaccurate or incomplete, or when the delivery cannot take place for reasons beyond the control of the company in charge of the shipment, such as the absence of the addressee. Any costs arising from these incidents shall be borne by the customer in all cases.
ORDER RECEPTION PROCESS
Parcels can be heavy and bulky. Remember to ensure the reception of the parcel by at least two people, especially to transport it to your home. The transport company will only take the parcel out of the truck and leave it as close as possible to your home. It is strongly recommended that, if you have the chance, the professionals responsible for installing the product participate in its reception.
Please check upon delivery, before the deliveryman goes away, that the siphon (small box) is attached to the pallet (small little black box) is attached to the package and that the product is in good condition. If the siphon is missing, please note this on the delivery note and inform us within 24 hours to address the problem.
If the shower tray is in poor condition: please refuse the delivery (take a photo with your phone if you have the chance), then inform us immediately to make the corresponding claim to the transport company. It is essential to unpack the product before signing the delivery note. Please, take a few minutes to open and check the product. The delivery man cannot make you keep a faulty or incomplete product.
IMPORTANT: the following mention on the delivery note “subject to unpacking/checking” has no legal value. If the deliveryman does not want to wait for you to unpack, write down in full “the deliveryman did not want us to check the parcel” and make the driver sign.
Nevertheless, once the order has been received and during the unpacking process before installation, check the surface of the product without removing the protective film. We advise you not to remove the protective film before installation is not complete. The protective film isolates the shower tray from any material drops (cement, glue, etc.).
IMPORTANT: Any damage caused by the transport cannot, under any circumstances, be assigned to the manufacturer. In the event of a dispute caused by transport, the order will be re-manufactured under the same commercial conditions as those agreed upon when the order was confirmed with regard to delivery time, etc.
