We will inform customers promptly of any proposed increase in estimates prices and the reasons for it and will only proceed with the work or supply with the approval of the customer.

Liability
We shall not be liable for any loss or damage caused by events or circumstances beyond our reasonable control (such as severe weather conditions, the actions of third parties not employed by us or any defect in a customer’s or third party’s property): this extends to loss or damage to vessel, gear, equipment or other property left with us for work or storage, and harm to person entering our premises or using any of our facilities or equipment.
