Important: For customers purchasing timber cladding, bench boards and framing timber, and/or insulation boards, their attention is particularly drawn to section 2.1. No customer should proceed with purchasing these materials without having accepted these terms of purchase.

 

1. Damage Reporting

Any damages, shortages (missing items) or quality issues must be clearly written on delivery notes and the damages must be reported to Finnmark Limited within 24 hours of the delivery. No claims for damages or quality issues will be accepted if delivery notes are not signed for as damaged. 

Goods must be checked on delivery. Any quality issues, shortages in quantity or missing items must be written on delivery notes and reported to Finnmark Limited within 24 hours of delivery. No claims for quality issues, shortages or missing items will be accepted if delivery notes are not signed for as short.

Goods where damage is identified at the point of delivery can be refused by the customer and will be rerouted to us. On receipt of the goods, we can provide a refund or replacement.

Please note: Slightly different terms are used for timber cladding and bench boards as well as insulation. These are outlined below in 2.1. - 2.2.

2. Faulty Products

You will be required to undertake troubleshooting to establish the issue. You may be asked to provide photos and videos which will be required to diagnose the issues.

If your product develops a fault, this will likely be covered by the manufacturer's warranty. These differ from product to product and the warranty/guarantee information can be found in the relevant section on the product page. To discuss a manufacturers warranty claim, please contact our Customer Services team. They will require photo and video evidence to help submit your claim in order to resolve the issue. In some cases this may warrant a replacement part for repair or full exchange to replace the goods in accordance with the terms of the Consumer Rights Act 2015. This does not affect your statutory rights. The appropriate response will be established by our customer services team and their decision on the appropriate action is final.

Please note, on any of our sauna timber products, no manufacturer's warranty or guarantee is offered. The manufacturers do warrant the timber grading standards in line with the European or Canadian timber grading standards. For more information see below.

2.1. IMPORTANT: Timber & Insulation Wastage Allowances

 Please note, Timber products and Insulation boards do not follow standard damage or fault reporting outlined above. No manufacturer's warranty or guarantee is offered on any of our sauna timber products. The manufacturers do warrant the timber grading standards in line with the European or Canadian timber grading standards but when ordering you must consider over ordering to the wastage allowance recommendations. Insulation generally does carry a warranty but does not follow the standard damage reporting process.

 2.1.1. Timber Products

Timber cladding, benching and framing are sold on the understanding that the order meets the grading standards of each timber type. When purchasing sauna construction materials such as timber or insulation, the customer should include wastage allowance within their calculations to account for imperfections, minor damages, discoloration, knots, marks, warping, twisting, shakes, chips or dents. Some of the products have wastage allowance recommendations of up to 30% of the calculated project quantity. Any claims for imperfections or minor damages would need to exceed the recommended wastage allowance to be eligible for a credit. Credit will be offered on the value of the materials above and beyond the wastage allowance only. 

 For timber products we will not send out replacement packs but offer a credit on the materials that do not meet the standards. This credit does not include any shipping costs, only the value of the boards above and beyond the wastage allowance. To ensure you do not need to purchase additional materials with costly single pack shipments, you should order with the recommended wastage percentages for all materials. For patent issues such as damages, these must be reported within 24 hours of receipt in line with our standard damage reporting process. For latent defects such as twisting, warping, knots and shakes, we allow up to 14 days for these to be reported. 

 

2.1.2. Insulation

 For insulation boards such as Kingspan Sauna Satu or Finnfoam, minor knocks, marks or chips from the tongues and edges will not be eligible for damage claims as the installation of this product requires the joins to be foams with exact gap foam anyway and taped with aluminium foil tape to seal them. Only in the event of catastrophic damage above the outlined wastage allowance would a credit per board be issued.
