We cannot accept any responsibility for any variation in colour of the goods from the colour shown on the website caused by your browser software or computer system.

Ownership of all stones and pavers remains with Demelza at all times; and Demelza shall determine the location where each stone and paver is laid, and undertake the installation.

Subject to Paragraph 10 below we will maintain stones and pavers laid in the walkway, subject to damage caused by natural causes, third parties and fair wear and tear, for a minimum period of ten years following installation. However, we reserve the right to move or relocate stones at our discretion; and after expiry of the ten-year guarantee they may be permanently removed by us and destroyed.

This website and our Terms and Conditions have been designed for use within the United Kingdom. Whilst we will consider requests for products and enquiries from outside the United Kingdom, we give no warranty, express or implied, that our website or the placing of any order through this website from outside the UK complies with any applicable non-UK laws or regulations.
