If the order is refused on delivery we will charge freight to and from your location and any additional fees incurred.

Shipment of Replacement Items

We realize that damaged products or shipping errors on our part can cause major delays in your project. To minimize the inconvenience, we will make every effort to replace the products in a timely manner. Usually, replacement products will be shipped the same day that we are notified by the same shipping method as the original order (orders originally shipped FedEx Home Delivery will be replaced by FedEx Home Delivery, 2nd Day Air by 2nd Day Air, etc.).

Lost Orders

We realize that a lost order can cause major delays in your project. To minimize the inconvenience, we will make every effort to track your order and replace it in a timely manner, if necessary. If a lost order somehow arrives after the replacement has been shipped, please refuse one or the other order and the carrier will return it to us.
