Cambridge Interiors – Terms & Conditions
At Cambridge Interiors, we want every customer to feel confident and informed when placing an order with us. These Terms & Conditions are designed to set out clearly how we work, what you can expect from us, and what we ask of you in return. They protect both you as the Customer and us as the Company, ensuring that your order is handled fairly, transparently, and with the highest standards of service.
Because many of our products are made‑to‑measure or bespoke, it is important to understand that once an order is confirmed, changes or cancellations may not be possible without additional costs. Samples are provided for guidance only, and natural variations in colour, texture, or finish are part of the character of the products we supply.
By confirming your order and paying a deposit, you are entering into a binding agreement with Cambridge Interiors under these Terms & Conditions. We encourage you to read them carefully and contact us with any questions before proceeding.
