We make every endeavour to make sure that all tiles sent out to you are from the same batch. In the case where human error may occur and you receive tiles from different batches please contact us BEFORE fitting the tiles, so we can solve the problem.

All damages and irregularities must be notified within 2 working days of the delivery. The exact amount missing or damaged must be notified, in writing and replacements will be sent out FOC. All damaged or faulty goods may be collected at the request of the delivery/collection company. It will be deemed acceptable that 1 or 2 tiles may be broken, due to the nature of tiles, in this instance we would recommend that you try and use these where cutting is necessary, if you still require 1 or 2 tiles to complete the job then we will send out the replacements on the assumption the original notification was given within the timescale above.

Due to the cost of haulage and the increased risk of the tiles being damaged in transit, Tile Star do not offer a returns policy on unused tiles ordered online. If you used the ‘free store collection’ method for ordering and if the tiles were in stock at the point of ordering each case will be looked at on an individual basis. If the tiles were ordered more than 21 days ago, are a different tone/batch to the current stock are just a few factors taken into consideration. Anything with a value over £100 will incur a minimum 30% restocking charge.

If you have ordered samples, we will obviously carry out checks to ensure you have had the correct order, the correct tiles have been picked etc, and ask you to supply the sample tile, or an image of it next to what has been delivered. This will help us work out what has happened and we will resolve the situation. If you had not ordered a sample, then Tile Star cannot be held responsible for any discrepancy from the images on the website, and how they appear on your screen. If you do not want them, you will be liable to have the collection charge and 30% re-stocking fee deducted from your refund. Any special order items (please see terms and conditions) will be non-refundable.
