What guarantee do I have on my purchases?
All items on our site have different manufacturing warranties dependant upon the product and brand, although all items can be returned within seven days provided that that outer packaging has not been opened. All you need to do is contact us and we will arrange collection of the items. As soon as it has been inspected, a credit will be processed.

All of our tools are manufacturer guaranteed against faulty manufacturing and poor workmanship. Our tool equipment warranties are all dependant upon the type of tool. Generally, all hand tools are guaranteed for 12 months unless stated, and power tools are guaranteed for between 6 months and 3 years depending upon the brand. Manufacturer warranties last one year.

For some brands you may need to register the tool to get the warranty. For example, Bosch tools need to be registered at the Bosch UK website in order for you to receive your full 3 year warranty. Many brands request this as proof that your tool purchase was from a legitimate supplier like ourselves. If you have a problem with one of your products either inside or outside the warranty, please contact us, as we may still be able to help guide you.
