We grant you a non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to use each template for your internal business or personal purposes only. You may not resell, sublicense, share, or redistribute the templates in any form. - DELIVERY
Upon order confirmation, you will receive an email with a download link. That link expires after 18 months - PRICE

By checking the “I agree to the Terms of Use” box at checkout, you consent to immediate download of your digital templates and acknowledge you lose your 14-day cancellation right under the UK Consumer Contracts Regulations once the files are accessed.
6.1 Your Statutory Right to Cancel
Under the Consumer Contracts Regulations, you have 14 days from purchase to cancel. For digital goods, this right ends as soon as you download or access the files.
6.2 Withdrawing Consent
If you change your mind before download, email support@constructioncompanion.co.uk with your order number to revoke consent and cancel your order.
6.3 Refunds for Defective Files
If your download link fails or the file is corrupt, email support@constructioncompanion.co.uk. We will resend a working copy or issue a full refund within 5 working days of your request. - MONEY-BACK GUARANTEE POLICY
With over 15 years in business and thousands of tradespeople relying on our contracts, we’ve never faced a legitimate legal challenge. Our own legal team of two in-house experts, backed by three external specialists during busy periods, and over 50 trade-specialist authors—each with real-world B2C and B2B experience—ensure every document is rock-solid and fit for purpose.
This guarantee is here so you can buy with confidence. If your own client (the person who signs the contract) raises a genuine legal issue with the wording, we’ll step in to investigate and refund you if the template is at fault.
7.1 Scope & Eligibility
Products Covered: All downloadable contract templates and digital documents sold on Construction Companion.
Guarantee Period: 30 calendar days from the date of purchase.
Use Requirement: You must have used the template in an actual job—i.e., the document was signed by your customer.
Customer Complaint: To claim, provide written evidence of a complaint or dispute from your customer, clearly stating how our template failed to deliver the intended legal protection.
Download Confirmation: Our system logs every file-access and download. If we see any link has been accessed or downloaded, the template is deemed “used.”
Document Verification: You are responsible for ensuring each template suits your specific business needs before use.
7.2 Wrong Purchase & Non-Use Refund
If you simply purchased the wrong template but have not accessed or downloaded any files, email refunds@constructioncompanion.co.uk within 30 days of purchase for a full refund—no questions asked. Once you download or access the document link, this option expires.

• Copy of your receipt or order number
• Proof of use (when/how your customer signed)
• Your customer’s complaint (email, letter or dispute notice)
We will acknowledge your claim within 2 business days.
7.4 Claim Review & Resolution
Review: We verify your purchase, download logs, and complaint evidence.
Support Offer: Often we can resolve issues by suggesting clause modifications or providing guidance.
Refund Decision: If, after any support, you remain dissatisfied, we will process a full refund to your original payment method within 14 days of approval.
7.5 Exclusions & Limitations
• Change of Mind: This guarantee does not cover regrets, preference changes, or dissatisfaction unrelated to a documented customer complaint.
• Non-Payment by Customer: Claims based solely on your customer failing to pay for work completed are not covered.
• Download = Use: Any download or access log marks the product as used, barring the Wrong Purchase refund.
• Repeat Claims: We reserve the right to decline multiple claims by the same purchaser.
• Statutory Rights: This voluntary policy is in addition to your statutory rights under the Consumer Rights Act 2015, which cover faulty digital content (repair, replacement, price reduction, or refund). - NO LEGAL ADVICE
