Terms And Conditons
These terms and conditions explain the rights and responsibilities of the client and IZEO Construction Limited
Izeo Construction Ltd will provide all customers with a written quotation, which will include sufficient detail for the completion of the works. If any clarification is required, please contact us so that we can provide it. Extra works can be provided subject to a written confirmation including cost.
A ‘contract’ with IZEO Construction Ltd is an agreement by the client to have work undertaken based on a written quotation headed ‘Quote/Estimate’ submitted directly to the client on an official IZEO Construction Ltd and is a clear and straightforward undertaking between the two parties to form a contract.
Once a quotation has been accepted (either verbally or in writing) and the client has paid their deposit, then a contract has been entered into and these terms will come into effect.
All prices quoted are calculated on the basis of free access and unimpeded working during our normal working hours (8am – 4.30pm Mon – Fri), unless otherwise agreed. Please note that we may be on site until 6pm or on a Saturday. We will get prior agreement with the client should this happen.
It is the customer’s responsibility to arrange planning permission, building control and any utility changes. If planning permission is required for the work, IZEO Construction Ltd may request to see proof that this has been agreed prior to beginning work.
Commencement of work is under the assumption of uninterrupted work for the duration of the contract and in accordance with planning permission where applicable. IZEO Construction Ltd will not be held liable for any costs incurred as a result of delays due to unforeseen circumstances. (eg planning permission delays resulting in work having to stop)
IZEO Construction Ltd will agree all practical arrangements with regards to working methods with the client in order to provide minimum disruption to the client and allow work to be carried out efficiently by the contractor.
Free access is required for delivery of building materials, plant, machinery, skips etc.
All used or removed materials on-site remain the property of IZEO Construction Ltd and will be disposed of accordingly,
IZEO Construction Ltd may directly employ or sub contract labour to work on site. Each sub-contractor takes full responsibility for their own third party liability. Plumbing sub-contracts are CORGI registered. Electricians are Part P certified. Izeo Construction Ltd will oversee all works to completion and takes full general and operational responsibility in the running of any contract agreed with the client.
Invoices will be sent out prior to the relevant payment date and each invoice will serve as a receipt for payment. Payments must be made in a timely manner or work progress may be impeded or ceased (in the case of non-payment). Payments can be made by cheque or cash but bank transfer is our preferred method. All invoices include our bank details for bank transfers.
Insurance – Public Liability and Employers’ Liability: IZEO Construction Ltd has Public Liability Insurance and Employers’ Liability to the sum of £5,000,000. All usual general building practices are covered within our insurance policy.

Guarantees: All customers will benefit from a full guarantee on our workmanship for a period of 12 months. Guarantees on materials run in accordance with manufacturer’s warranty periods where applicable. Our guarantee covers all new work and new materials used in construction or repairs, but does not guarantee the integrity of any existing structures, materials or decorations. In the event of a failure beyond the guarantee period we will be happy to investigate the cause and negotiate a solution to the problem without delay and carry out any agreed repairs as soon as possible. Charges may apply for remedial work carried out beyond guarantee dates or to items not covered by our guarantee. Please note: Decorations are signed off on completion and not covered by guarantee. Plastering work is covered by a 6 month guarantee. Please note we provide a 6 month guarantee for plastering work to allow for settling in time. We therefore strongly recommend delaying any decorating for this period.

We will not be held responsible for the suitability of the existing boilers ability to provide for additional plumbing works. If the existing boiler is found to be unsuitable, this shall be discussed with the client and any parts required shall be supplied at trade cost. If we have to remove existing radiators for any reason (eg plastering) we will not be held responsible for their effectiveness once they are replaced.
IZEO Construction Ltd will endeavour to protect existing surfaces with the use of dustsheets and loose plastic sheeting etc along with care in our working practice. However, responsibility for protection from damage of any existing surface or fabrics etc is the responsibility of the client. Arrangement can be made to put in place protection of existing surfaces, over and above our basic cover, at a negotiated additional cost. We strongly recommend the clients moves any expensive or sentimental items before work commences. If we are required to move furniture to undertake our work we will not be held responsible for any breakages or stains that may occur. We advice clients to keep all valuables and expensive items safe and secure for the duration of the works, as we cannot be held liable for any theft or loss.
