Special Orders:
In some cases the amount of square feet needed may exceed our current stock levels and a special factory production/order would need to be made. In these cases we would ask the following:
- An initial 25% non-refundable deposit would be made to secure the order
- Another 25% non-refundable deposit would then be needed to secure shipment from the factory
- The final 50% would then be needed to release the order from our warehouse
Dye-Lots & Caliber:
With any manufactured product, shade variation and size variation are expected; this is the case with all of our products. Due to varying production dates final product may vary in tone or caliber from any sample received. Multiple orders are not guaranteed to be from the same batch. If a shade or size variation issue arises, we will make every attempt to help you satisfy your client. You may contact us in hopes of matching a previous dye lot but we do not guarantee continued availability. Also we import from many different manufacturers so even tiles appearing to be of the same size or thickness may have variations when laid together. We recommend always dry laying out material before installation to make sure everything fits as planned and that you have enough material. We always recommend 10% overage when ordering. We only guarantee the same dye lot and caliber per product within one order.
Claims:
No claims regarding our product will be acted upon after installation. Please ensure you and your client inspect all products prior to installation. Also always be sure to lay out product completely before applying any adhesives. Any claims made after the tile has been installed will be denied.
Returns:
All returns are to be pre-approved by our Customer Service department. A Returns Goods Authorization (RGA) number must be provided before we will accept any return. No returns will be accepted or authorized after 30 days of the customer receiving the product. All approved returns will be subject to a mandatory 25% restocking fee. The customer (you) will be responsible for freight costs to return the product to our Manalapan location. The product needs to be received by us in New and Sellable condition. After inspection, a credit will be issued towards future purchases minus the restocking fee.
Damaged Product / Replacement Product:
Any product sold or provided by SomerTile shall be deemed accepted by the Customer upon delivery. Claims for damage, shortage or errors in shipping must be recorded on the original receiving documents and reported within 1 business day following delivery to Customer. Concealed damage must be reported to SomerTile immediately in order for the delivery company to conduct an inspection of the material. The pallet must not be handled at this point to ensure an adequate inspection. This ensures that SomerTile can properly complete the claims process. When a freight carrier is set up by SomerTile to ship material most replacement orders will also be issued with cost and the credit will be given on the original invoice for the order. Exceptions will be made in situations where replacements are deemed necessary due to the fault of SomerTile including defective product, miss-shipments, short shipments, etc. Any amount issued by the carrier as a result of the claim will then be credited to the customer. Amount issued may vary from total amount of the initial claim. Please note that any shipping claims may take up to or exceed 30 days to process with the carrier. If replacements are requested due to damage, defects or miss-shipment, photos of the product must be provided in any case. All replacements will be shipped out standard ground for either LTL or small parcel orders. If the customer arranges the shipping then the customer is required to file the claim with their carrier and place a new order for the material.
