Terms & Conditions Of Equipment Hire and Work Carried Out.
1. Quotations are based on the assumption that the site is served by a firm access road with adequate hard standing, and that the site is of firm nature, and is level, free from flooding, trees, ground and overhead obstructions which might suffer damage occasioned by the transport, erection, use or dismantling of the equipment, or entail any extra labour. In the event of any damage being caused by the equipment or services aforesaid the Hirer shall indemnify the Company in respect of any loss occasioned.
2. Should insurance not be taken out through Border Marquees the hirer shall be deemed as the bailee of the equipment upon completion of erection until complete removal from the site by the company, and will assume full responsibility for all damage caused to such equipment during this period. The company is fully covered by public liability insurance, but the hirer shall indemnify the company against all claims for injury to persons or animals arising from the hire of the equipment. The hirer may pay an additional premium for insurance against malicious, theft or accidental damage to equipment. This costs 5% of the cost of hiring the equipment. Any claim will be made at the sole discretion of the company. The hier is liable for a £300.00 excess on any policy should any claim be made.
