Site Conditions
The company’s quotation for the hire charges is dependent on a reasonably level firm site being provided
with reasonably easy access for commercial vehicles. The company cannot be held responsible for damage
caused to concealed or buried pipes, cables and other services and features unless their position has been
clearly marked on the site by the hirer.
The quotation for lighting is made on the assumption that a suitable and sufficient power point is available
within a reasonable distance to the marquee. The company reserves the right to erect, dismantle and
remove the equipment from the site at its convenience. The hire charges do not include any repairs or
making good that may be required to the site.
Quotations
The equipment is available on the date the quotation is sent, but the company reserves the right to substitute
the nearest available item(s) should the unlikely necessity arise.
Hirers Responsibility
The hirer shall provide the company with a plan showing where the hirer requires the equipment to be
erected, or alternatively have a representative on site for that purpose. Otherwise the company will erect the
equipment where it sees fit and a further charge shall be incurred if the hirer wishes the equipment to be
repositioned.
The hirer is responsible for obtaining any site permits that may be necessary. The hirer is liable for any loss
or damage to the equipment during the period of hire. In the event of claim for loss or damage being
accepted by the company’s insurers, the hirer will be liable for the first £500 of any such loss or damage.
Third Party Liability
The company will not be responsible for, and the hirer will indemnify the company against, all claims for
injury to persons, or damage to, property, however caused, unless it is proved that such injury or damage
resulted from faulty materials, workmanship, or negligence on the part of the company.
Force Majeure
Whilst every effort will be made by the company to complete any orders, the company cannot be held
liable for non-completion of orders due to matters beyond its control.
