CONTRACTORS

No project will commence on the assumption that third parties may be required for project completion. Such details will be finalised prior to project commencement, unless requested by the client at a later date.

Failure to complete payment in time will result in suspension of all services.
PAYMENT
After discussing a project brief, a deposit of 40% will be required before further work is carried out. This is to cover our initial costs and is not refundable. To enable us to keep our prices low, Sean Brightman Ltd will not carry out any further work on the project until this deposit is made. The remaining 60% must be paid on completion of the work and in the case of web design, the client will have one calendar month to advise us of any problems or basic changes that need to be made. These will be resolved free of charge. Unless otherwise agreed any further alterations to be made after this time will be charged at £48 per hour (minumum £48). At the moment we do not charge V.A.T. on our work.
Depending on the scale of a project, it may be invoiced in stages.
In the case of web design, failure to complete payment will result in suspension of all services.
Payments can be made by bank transfer, cash and sometimes PayPal payments can be arranged.
