Terms & Conditions for Use of Our Garage.

We have put these measures into place to ensure an efficient workflow for us, to allow transparent billing, and to keep our valued customers happy.

Effective now and as of January 2023.

1. Build Estimates

Due to the nature of most projects exact estimates are not a possibility. On common jobs such as Mustang II Installation and chassis swaps, it can be estimated fairly accurately due to the amount of this kind of job has been carried out by us. Either way it will be barring any add-ons through the build process or issues with the vehicle or components encountered through the build.

2. Billing

Jobs are billed strictly on a time and material basis. Our workshop labor rate is £80.00 +VAT an hour. Aftermarket part pricing varies, we will do our best to get the best product for the job at the best price. Jobs will be billed weekly or biweekly. Invoices are due upon receipt. outstanding invoices older than 7 days from receipt will stop progress on your build until paid in full. This may also move the next stage works to be put to the back of the waiting que of jobs.

3. Build Process

All projects will have pictures taken when the vehicle arrives, and each job will have a build photo folder attached to your invoice for start to finish build photos. After initial consultation and a build plan is established, any additional jobs or add-ons will push the job back in the queue.

On larger projects, an initial invoice will be sent, and parts ordered to allow us to have everything in stock and ready to efficiently move through the project. Completion dates and deadlines in most cases are not set in stone, due to parts availability, defective parts, workload, and to allow us time to fully shake down each build. We take immense pride in our work and need time to test drive and shake down each build. On full builds a minimum of 150 miles must be completed before the job is complete.

4. Take Off Parts

All parts that are being removed and not used in your build must be picked up within 14 days of being notified. Parts stored after this period will be sold or disposed of. There are consignment options available for drivetrain and powertrain components.

5. Shop Policies

We appreciate all our customers and our Farm Fresh Garage family, however we cannot allow adhoc walk-ins, or un arranged visits. All customer visits must be scheduled in advance. We understand the excitement of taking your pride and joy and transforming it to the next level, but to ensure profesionalism from us, along with Health & Safety complience, we must ensure all visits are pre arranged and schedualed in advance.

There will be no exceptions to this rule.

We will send updates as often as we can – Not on demand. Our updates will come out on Fridays to the jobs that have updates.

If you have not recieved an update and would like one please do ask and we will do our very best to get you one as soon as we can.

We aim to work though jobs systematically and as efficently as possible and as a small team we cannot do this if we run an adhoc system of meetings. If you would like to arrange an appointment with us you can call into the office and arrange it with any of our staff here.

We hope you fully understand and agree with the above as it allows us to offer each one of our clients the correct flow of work on their build along with updates when they are available.
