MEASUREMENTS AND SITE SURVEY Accurate measurements can only be taken once the well is completed with walls plastered and it is possible to have an exact floor to floor finished height. If we are asked to measure or commence manufacture before this is possible then the onus and risk passes to the builder to ensure that the finished measurements are exactly as those agreed.
DRAWINGS AND DELIVERY Once measurements are received the drawings are raised and sent to the client for checking and signing upon return to us, we can then commence manufacture. Estimated delivery times are from the return of the signed drawings.
