Terms and Conditions
Please read these terms and conditions carefully before placing an order with us as they will be legally binding and will govern any order you place with us. Please read and ensure you have understood in particular the sections headed “Important Information” and “Our Liability” below.
Ordering Online
Ordering Online with us is safe and secure.
We employ a method of interaction with our visitors that does not compromise credit card information. This online system is 100% secure.
To place an order, simply add items to the basket and follow the step-by-step instructions that will guide you through the process to complete the order.
We do not store any card details. As soon as an order is placed, your card details are destroyed in an untraceable format.
The presence of SSL means you can rest assured that communications (e.g. credit card numbers) between your browser and this site’s web servers are private and secure when the SSL session is activated.
If you wish, you may also send us a Postal Order (only) or a personal cheque. Personal cheques will delay your order as we must wait for your funds to clear before we ship any goods.
Please allow an additional 7-10 business days for shipping of your goods if paid by personal cheque. To order by cheque, just print the order form with your shopping cart contents from the order confirmation page and complete the necessary fields, then post the form to the address indicated. Please make any cheques payable to “Worktops.org Ltd”.
When you place an order with us (worktops.org) you are making an offer to buy goods and accept our terms of sale. We will send you confirmation via electronic mail that we have received this request. Once we have checked the price and availability of the goods, we will contact you separately via electronic mail to confirm that we accept your order, a VAT invoice will be issued, and a contract will be made between the “customer” and “worktops.org”.
In the unlikely event that the goods are no longer available, or there is a pricing mistake, we will advise you of this. You will not receive a VAT invoice confirming acceptance of your order and there will be no contract between us.
Returns
Every item we sell is carefully inspected before it is despatched, although very occasionally problems may occur. As detailed in the Distance Selling Regulations, customers who are consumers (i.e. individuals ordering for private use, rather than in the course of a trade or business) have the right to return standard sized, un-oiled goods. In accordance with the Consumer Protection (Distance Selling) Regulations, private individuals have the right to cancel the contract for the purchase of any item(s) within a period of 7 working days, beginning with the day after the day on which the item(s) are delivered (for the avoidance of doubt, Saturdays, Sundays and Bank Holidays are not classed as working days). Any cancellation requests must be made via electronic mail within the timeframe specified. We will then arrange to collect them (the whole order) and give a full refund. The collection cost must be paid by the customer, except in instances where the goods supplied are faulty, have been supplied in error, or misdescribed by the seller. We are under no obligation to offer a collection service in these circumstances, and in any event under no circumstances can these collection fees be waived. A collection charge, no less than £50.00, will be confirmed when the collection is arranged. Alternatively, the customer may arrange transportation. The customer must pay all costs involved in transporting the goods back to the warehouse from which they were despatched. The goods must be insured whilst in transit for the full value. Customer returns must be agreed in writing or by electronic mail by both parties before the goods are returned. Any refunds for returned items will be processed within 30 days.
The exception to this right of cancellation for consumers is bespoke items. Customers Consumers do not have the right to cancel the contract for the purchase of any goods that have been subject to any works by worktops.org, including (but not exclusively) services detailed on our fabrication service. For further information please view the fabrication service terms detailed below.
The right of cancellation outlined above applies to consumers only and not to anybody ordering goods in the course of a trade or business.
Whether you are a consumer or a business customer, we will exchange or repair items if they are faulty or defective on delivery to you provided that we are notified within two working days of your discovery of the fault or defect and you take all reasonable steps to ensure that the items do not deteriorate further (for avoidance of doubt, Saturdays, Sundays and Bank Holidays are not classed as working days). In no circumstances will we be liable for defects arising from fair wear and tear, accidental damage, misuse, failure to comply with our installation and aftercare instructions, or other negligent actions by you or your installer. For further information on what constitutes a fault or defect, and for further information on our liability to you, please see the “Important Information” and “Our Liability” sections below.
Any cancellation or return requests must be made via electronic mail within the timeframe specified. All products to be returned must be carefully repackaged in their original packing; for example, shrink-wrapped and factory packaged worktops must be returned unopened. For damaged goods and the delivery procedure, please see our delivery details page.
Fabrication service
Contracts created for goods affected by our fabrication service may not be cancelled by any customers.
All fabrication requests are responded to in a formal quotation format which outlines the proposed customisation. Once a fabrication quotation is accepted by the customer and confirmed, an order can be placed with ourselves. Once payment has been processed with the customer, a contract is created with worktops.org and the customer accepts our terms of sale.
Once an order has been placed, the service will commence. A diagram will be created according to the customers’ requirements and the worktop blanks will be prepared. A diagram detailing the customers’ requirements will be sent to the customer via electronic mail shortly after the contact has been created, usually within one working day, for the customer to confirm the final specification. It is the responsibility of the customer to confirm this diagram as soon as possible. Any machining will not be completed until we have received confirmation from the customer via electronic mail. The fabrication time quoted at the start of the order will not be applicable until worktops.org have received a confirmation of the diagram supplied. If we have not received confirmation of the diagram via electronic mail within a reasonable period of time, we reserve the right to delay delivery. You must make sure that the information and materials provided are correct for your required use. We cannot be held liable if these dimensions are subsequently found to be incorrect.
Upon receipt of diagram approval by the customer, worktops.org will confirm via electronic mail within one working day that the confirmation has been received.
As this is a bespoke service, after the point of diagram confirmation absolutely no changes can be made to the order; however, should the customer notice an error, he/she should make contact with the Fabrication Department within 1 working day and Worktops.org will consider the request for amendment. Our assessment is final and Worktops.org reserve the right to deny any request for change after point of diagram confirmation.
Fabrication orders cannot be cancelled once a contract has been created. In exceptional circumstances and in our absolute discretion, we reserve the right to allow the customer to cancel the fabrication work should we deem this necessary, but only if the goods have not yet been subject to customisation. Cancellation in such a way will not be subject to a full refund. We reserve the right to charge an amount, no less than £50.00, to cover aspects of the service that have been completed. We reserve the right to offer or withdraw this cancellation option.
Once the contract has been created, the customer may not cancel the order even if the goods have not yet been despatched. The “fabrication service” includes, but is not exclusive to, all works detailed on our fabrication service page, e.g. machining, oiling, and other fabrication works. In the rare event that custom or bespoke goods are found to be faulty, we will arrange to repair, or replace the items if deemed necessary (subject to the provisions set out in the “returns” section above). We will endeavour to complete this work as soon as practicable. We may wish to collect the items in order to carry out any such repair.
Whilst we use reasonable endeavours to deliver any bespoke items within the time-frame quoted at point of order, due to the custom manufacturing process of any goods made specifically to the customers required size or thickness, the lead time for bespoke items manufactured in Europe may be delayed slightly and time shall not be of the essence in respect of any specified delivery or installation dates; to this end we recommend that all of our customers allow an additional 28 days in the event of any unforeseen delays. Please note that this extended lead-time does not affect items altered in our fabrication service, merely for bespoke manufactured items, for example extra thick or extra wide items that are clearly labelled as “bespoke”.
Orders cannot be cancelled where goods have been altered by worktops.org
All works have a + / – 3 millimetre tolerance.
Please note that consumers’ statutory right of cancellation does not apply to orders which are made to measure or in any way cut or altered to your requirements.
Delivery Information
Our in-house 2Man service is the recommended service for most deliveries, though we also offer several external courier options. Terms and conditions are specific to each courier.
Though Worktops.org works hard to ensure our customers receive the best service from external courier services, Worktops.org cannot be held responsible for any delays that occur as part of an external courier service. It is the responsibility of the customer to familiarise him/herself with the terms and conditions of each service prior to selecting a delivery option.
The terms for each service can be found below:
Worktops.org® 2Man Delivery Service
Worktops are delivered by two personnel who will carry the customer’s goods to the nearest ground floor access point of the customer’s property. The customer will be given a three hour timeslot but should there be a delay due to instances outside of Worktops.org control –such as heavy or unforeseen traffic – Worktops.org cannot accept responsibility for this.
Please note that it is the customer’s responsibility to ensure that there is a clear passageway – suitable for both the drivers and the worktops – from the entrance of the property to the ground floor room of choice. If there are any obstructions, the Worktops.org 2Man team are entitled to leave the goods at the closest safest point (or similar). If the obstructions can be moved then it is the customer’s responsibility to undertake this process. If the passageway is not clear, and any damage is done to either the customer’s property or possessions as a result of insufficient or unclear access, Worktops.org bears no responsibility.
All goods must be inspected for damage or shortfall on delivery in the presence of the delivery driver. Any loss or damage must be clearly written on the delivery note and we must be informed via electronic mail within two working days of receipt (for avoidance of doubt, Saturdays, Sundays and Bank Holidays are not classed as working days). No claims for loss or damage can be made after this. Upon signing, the customer will become responsible for the goods and any subsequent loss, damage or destruction of the goods. The delivery note is a legal document and is the only admissible proof that delivery has been made to you without any loss or damage.
Overnight Delivery
Worktop deliveries are made by one man only. The customer agrees to ensure that someone competent will be available to help with the unloading of the goods. The goods can be extremely heavy; it is the responsibility of the customer to ensure the designated helper is fit / suitably strong to help with the delivery. We cannot be held liable for any injury to persons unloading the delivery (unless caused by our negligence). It is the responsibility of the customer to ensure the drop off point and unloading area are both suitable and accessible. Our standard delivery service is to the nearest ground floor access point, for health and safety reasons. Special requests can occasionally be accommodated, please contact us to request further information.
All goods must be inspected for damage or shortfall on delivery in the presence of the delivery driver. Any loss or damage must be clearly written on the delivery note and we must be informed via electronic mail within two working days of receipt (for avoidance of doubt, Saturdays, Sundays and Bank Holidays are not classed as working days). No claims for loss or damage can be made after this. Upon signing, the Customer will become responsible for the goods and any subsequent loss, damage or destruction of the goods. The delivery note is a legal document and is the only admissible proof that delivery has been made to you without any loss or damage.
This service is intended to be next-day; however, as this is an external courier, Worktops.org cannot guarantee that this timeframe will be achieved. Customers should be aware that deliveries on this service can take up to three working days from point of order (for avoidance of doubt, Saturdays, Sundays and Bank Holidays are not classed as working days).
For damaged goods and the delivery procedure, please see our delivery details page.
External Two Man Service
On this service, customers can expect a phone-call at least 48 hours prior to delivery to confirm. The customer will then be given a window of either am/pm. Within this window, a 2-3 hour time slot will be given but please note this is for guidance only. Worktops.org cannot accept any responsibility if the delivery happens to arrive outside of this provisional time-slot.
The courier will attempt to contact the customer on three separate occasions. If all three attempts are unsuccessful, it is the customer’s responsibility to make contact with the courier. If this does not occur within 21 days, the goods will be returned to Worktops.org. The customer will then incur a further charge for redelivery and must contact Worktops.org to make the necessary arrangements before the goods can be redelivered. Worktops.org cannot be held responsible for any delays or charges resulting from this sequence of events.
All deliveries on this service are carried out by a two man team, and where possible the courier will put the items in the customer’s room of choice. All room of choice deliveries are subject to a site survey by the delivery team; the team will then assess whether it is possible the place the item in the room requested by the customer.
If it is possible to place the item in the room of choice, the customer must read and sign the necessary disclaimer to confirm that he/she understands its content. If this disclaimer is not signed, the delivery will be made to the doorstep only. If the delivery team deems it unsafe or considers that placing the item in the customer’s preferred room is not possible, the delivery team would ask the customer for an alternative room in which to place the product.
If it occurs that the external two man team are unable to place the product in a room of choice, the item will be left in the safest possible location.
All goods must be inspected for damage or shortfall on delivery in the presence of the delivery driver. Any loss or damage must be clearly written on the delivery note and we must be informed via electronic mail within two working days of receipt (for avoidance of doubt, Saturdays, Sundays and Bank Holidays are not classed as working days). No claims for loss or damage can be made after this. Upon signing, the Customer will become responsible for the goods and any subsequent loss, damage or destruction of the goods. The delivery note is a legal document and is the only admissible proof that delivery has been made to you without any loss or damage.
Accessory Delivery Service
With this courier a variety of timeslots can be chosen (next day, next day pre-noon, next day pre-10am etc). This is a signed for service and it is the customer’s responsibility to ensure that there is someone at the property to receive the parcel at the relevant time (according to the delivery option chosen).
Should delivery be unsuccessful due to the customer not being at the property on the scheduled delivery date, the customer is liable for any and all costs, charges and fees incurred in returning or storing the undelivered shipment.
All goods must be inspected for damage or shortfall on delivery in the presence of the delivery driver.

The delivery note is a legal document and is the only admissible proof that delivery has been made to you without any loss or damage.
Change to Delivery Date
For all delivery options the final cut-off point for changing delivery date is 10:00 AM prior to the working day of despatch (i.e. 10:00 AM on Friday morning if the goods are to be delivered on Monday). Please note, where certain areas must be booked at least 48 hours in advance as indicated on the delivery details page, the cut-off point for changing delivery date is 10:00 AM on the working day prior to this time. It is the customer’s responsibility to make contact with Worktops.org to rearrange delivery within this time-period. Suitable confirmation of the new arrangements must be provided by Worktops.org to verify successful rearrangement of delivery. Worktops.org will make every effort to accommodate requests for alteration to delivery date but does not guarantee this. If confirmation of new delivery date from Worktops.org is not received by the customer, he/she should assume that the original delivery date stands.
If delivery is not rearranged with Worktops.org prior to the aforementioned cut-off point, the customer bears the full responsibility of any delay or surcharges caused should the delivery not be successful.
Prices
Goods are charged at price shown on the product pages on the date the customer places the order and are inclusive of VAT. Prices are correct at time of publication. Errors and omissions are excepted. Orders will be processed at our published prices; otherwise, in the case of any unexpected change in price, you will be informed and asked if you wish to reconsider your order before proceeding.
The risk in the goods shall pass to the customer on delivery and title shall pass upon receipt by us of payment in full and cleared funds.
Complaints
If we should receive a complaint about any part of our service, by phone, fax, electronic mail or letter, then it will be dealt with promptly. Worktops.org will attempt to respond to all complaints within one working day, however during busy periods we will endeavour to reply within 5 working days (for avoidance of doubt, Saturdays, Sundays and Bank Holidays are not classed as working days). All complaints will be dealt with fairly and in confidence.
Important Information
Although we organise for delivery to occur on a certain date that is best suited to the customers’ requirements, we strongly advise that the hiring of various trades is not completed until the goods have arrived at the destination in satisfactory condition. Though we have an extremely high delivery success rate, occasionally, due to matters out of our control such as poor handling in transit or extreme weather conditions, delivery of the complete order in satisfactory condition may not be possible on the initial agreed date. As such, we also do not advise that any existing fittings are removed until a successful delivery has been achieved. We cannot be held responsible for any fees or losses caused by a delivery that is not delivered on the initial date but is still delivered within a reasonable time-frame. In the unlikely case that a delay in delivery does occur, we will of course give the order our utmost attention and attempt to resolve any problems in the shortest period of time possible.
We strongly advise that all goods are inspected thoroughly on delivery and before any installation work commences. Any work carried out to any of the goods received constitutes immediate acceptance of the items. This includes cutting, oiling, or any alterations that remove the item from its original condition. Any defects or faults later reported will be deemed as to have been caused, and thus bear the responsibility of, the customer (unless the customer can demonstrate otherwise). Worktops.org are not responsible for any fault or damage caused by negligent installation or failure to comply with our installation and aftercare instructions.
Please do not attempt to fix any problem yourself without contacting us first. We are unable to accept a return of any goods if any unauthorized alterations have been made. If goods have been altered without our prior authorization this may invalidate the manufacturer’s warranty.
There is a manufacturing tolerance for all standard sized worktops. The manufacturing tolerance of a stave size is +/-2mm, therefore if worktops are to be joined end-to-end please inform us beforehand so that we can attempt to match as best as possible. The stave width of our full stave worktops, where advertised as approximately 90mm width staves, can vary by +/-10mm due to natural variations of timber. Due to the manufacturing tolerance of each individual stave, each complete worktop may have one stave with a reduced width at one edge of the worktop, in order to maintain the advertised complete worktop width. Due to the nature of the image reproduction process and the nature of the goods we supply, we cannot guarantee the colour accuracy of certain goods. Worktops.org will always attempt to colour match goods ordered on a multiple basis, however as wood is a natural product we cannot guarantee any replication of colour from piece to piece. During manufacture, we go to great lengths to remove nearly all natural imperfections from the surface of our worktops. To not render the timber characterless, small natural imperfections are deemed acceptable and the customer accepts that small sound knots and minor shakes, which do not affect the performance of the worktop, are acceptable and shall not constitute faults or defects. Larger natural imperfections may occasionally appear on the underside of the worktop, and these shall not constitute faults or defects as long as they do not affect structural rigidity. Worktops.org go to extreme lengths to reduce the moisture content of the timber by drying timber before manufacture for longer than the standard period of time, a cost which we accept to further improve product quality. Gradual movement of timber due to natural contraction and expansion however cannot be prevented and after installation small cracks may appear, a few millimetres in width. This comes as a standard with all timber and is accepted as the nature of each individual section of wood and is not a fault or defect. Any movement is a natural characteristic and is not deemed a fault. Any minor cracks are not faults or defects and can be filled neatly and easily using a similar coloured wax filler if necessary. Any images and samples should be treated as an approximate guide only, as stave widths, colours, lengths and appearance can vary from piece to piece.
We go to great lengths to provide detailed installation and maintenance information and worktops.org cannot be held responsible for the lack of initial oiling, incorrect installation, maintenance or general mishandling. For all DIY worktops and associated products (i.e. those that are not fabricated or pre-oiled with our in-house service) we recommend finishing with Ultra Fresh Oil. For all items that are pre-oiled utilising our in-house service (including fabricated worktops) we recommend maintaining with our Oil. The maximum unsupported overhang that we recommend for a worktop is 200mm (based on a 620mm wide worktop). The recommendation for a larger overhang/span would be calculated on a pro-rata basis (i.e. the recommended unsupported overhang for a 960mm wide worktop [approximately 55% larger than a 620mm wide worktop] would be 110mm). If you require a larger overhang, we may also suggest that a suitable support leg(s) is used. The customer agrees to install the products as per our installation and aftercare guide. Failure to follow this is means that you accept full responsibility for any resultant damage or defects. Due to slight variations in stave size and colour as a result of batch variation, please contact us if you are attempting to match worktops to another worktop, or to a previous purchase, so that we can attempt to help where possible. Likewise, if you are joining a worktop end to end please inform us prior to purchase so that we will endeavour to locate two worktops that match as closely as possible. If you experience any problems with worktops that you have received, please contact us within two working days (for avoidance of doubt, Saturdays, Sundays and Bank Holidays are not classed as working days) and always before you alter them from their original condition, as any goods altered from their original state cannot be returned or exchanged (unless you are able to prove that a fault or defect existed on delivery).
We reserve the right to alter these Terms and Conditions at any time upon providing advanced notice.
