Terms & conditions

All our quotations are subject to the following conditions. Acceptance of our quotation implies acceptance of these terms and conditions.

1. Responsibility for payment

Payment of the whole price is the responsibility of the original client who initiated the contract. Where Logic Fence Limited or its agents order materials to fulfil this contract and the client cancels the contract, the client remains liable for the balance of the retail price of the goods over and above the deposit held (if any). On payment of the balance, materials will be handed over to the client on completion of work and receipt of invoices.

2. Default of payment

Failure to comply with payment terms will void the warranty and incur penalty interest of 10% after the first 7 days, and 2% for every month thereafter that the debt remains outstanding. The client agrees to reimburse Logic Fence Limited for any costs (legal or otherwise) incurred in enforcing payment.

3. Electricity and water supply

The client shall supply electricity and water at all times during construction. In the event that power and water are not supplied, any extra cost incurred, including generator hire, cartage, loss of time or additional labour, shall be payable by the client.

4. Client contactable

Logic Fence Limited may need to contact the client to ascertain construction options (if not already done so) or to consult the client on problems that have become apparent after commencement. Logic Fence Limited must be able to contact the client once the job has commenced, should the need arise. If we cannot contact the client, Logic Fence Limited will use its own judgement as to how to handle the issue.

5. Site

1. This quotation is, unless shown herein, based on construction of unobstructed areas.
2. Unless otherwise provided in this quotation, the owners shall clear all obstructions and provide a clear working area and access. If the owners fail to remove obstructions, then costs for removal shall be payable by the client at $50 per labour hour (+ GST), plus any costs for equipment.
3. The client shall be responsible for locating and notifying Logic Fence Limited in writing, prior to construction, of the position of all underground obstructions including electrical and telephone cables, gas, water, stormwater and sewerage pipes, and any other service facility which is or may be affected by the construction, and shall indemnify Logic Fence Limited and its agents against any claims and demands made by any person or authority in respect of any damage.
4. The owners shall remove or protect all plants, ornaments, pipes, etc. that may be damaged. Logic Fence Limited shall exercise all care but accepts no responsibility.
5. Damage to service facilities such as electrical and telephone cables, gas, water, stormwater or sewerage pipes is a risk of building a fence. While Logic Fence Limited exercises all care, it accepts no responsibility for such damage. Any costs to rectify such damage incurred by Logic Fence Limited shall be reimbursed by the client.

6. Underground obstructions

No allowance has been made for underground obstructions such as, but not limited to, rocks and tree roots. We allow 5 minutes per post-hole with a mechanical post-hole borer. Any additional time required will be charged to the client at $50 per hour (+ GST).

7. Permits

Unless otherwise provided in this quotation, it is the owner’s responsibility to obtain any necessary permits.

8. Boundaries

All pegs and boundaries are to be marked by the owners, who shall continue to be responsible for the position of the fence and any other claims arising therefrom.

9. Fence height and ground level

All heights of fences as shown shall be nominal only, and fences shall be constructed from standard construction components that shall yield the closest heights under that nominated. The fence height may vary in relation to the undulation of the land along the fence line. All fence heights shall be measured from the bottom of the palings or pickets, as the case may be, to the top of the fence. Gaps may appear at the bottom of the fence, and Logic Fence Limited may fill in these gaps at an additional cost.

10. Site clean up

Logic Fence Limited will remove any off-cuts, packaging straps and cement bags on completion. However, we do not remove excess soil generated from excavations. Logic Fence Limited does not provide for the removal of old fencing unless expressly provided for in the quotation. Removal of old fencing (if specified) involves cutting posts off at ground level.

If any part of these terms and conditions is found to be contrary to any New Zealand law or regulation, then only that part of these terms and conditions shall fail, and the balance of these terms and conditions shall remain in force.

Your guarantee

Additional to any statutory requirements, all fencing erected under this contract is guaranteed by Logic Fence Limited for a period of 10 years against defects in quality of workmanship and materials — for example, any major warping or discolouration. The guarantee applies only to the original owner/purchaser of the fence and is not transferable.

This guarantee is subject to the following. It shall not cover any defect or damage which may be caused, or partly caused, by or arise through:

• failure on the part of the owner to properly maintain the product or materials;
• failure on the part of the owner to follow any instructions or guidelines provided by Logic Fence Limited;
• improper application of the product or materials other than for the purpose for which they were designed;
• the continued use of any product or materials after any defect becomes apparent, or would have become apparent to a reasonably prudent operator or user; or
• fair wear and tear, any accident or act of God.

Claims must be lodged in writing, within seven days of first appearing, to Logic Fence Limited in the first instance.

Logic Fence Limited reserves the right to repair, replace and make good any materials and labour to fulfil this guarantee.
