### General Terms and Conditions (Based on Industry Standards):

- They apply to all contracts between the company and the customer, unless explicitly modified in writing.
2. **Quotations and Orders**:

- Orders are confirmed upon receipt of a signed contract or deposit payment (often a percentage of the total cost, e.g., 30–50%).

3. **Pricing and Payment**:
- Prices include VAT at the prevailing UK rate unless otherwise stated.
- Payment terms may include an initial deposit, progress payments during installation, and a final balance upon completion.

4. **Delivery and Installation**:
- Delivery and installation timelines are approximate and subject to factors like weather, site readiness, or supply chain delays.
