CUSTOM ORDER

Special Order Placement and Acceptance
Natural Timber Stone’s special order products are customized and made to order. It is essential that the buyer review the special order custom drawing and order details upon receipt for accuracy of project specifications. If there are any changes on the dimensions, finish or specifications listed on the special order custom drawing, the Buyer must notify NTS in writing of such changes prior to electronic confirmation and payment. Failure to notify NTS’s of order changes within this time period will constitute acceptance of final contract as final and binding.
NTS will require a minimum 50% deposit of the contract total at the time of order confirmation, with the 50% remaining balance, shipping charges and taxes (if applicable) due upon completion of production and prior to scheduling of delivery and installation.
