Delivery & Installation

 

1. Playsets

 

Delivery and professional on-site installation are included in the purchase price of all playsets.

 

2. Sheds

 

Delivery and on-site placement are included in the purchase price provided that:

  • The customer supplies a clear, unobstructed access path to the installation site.
  • The customer provides a properly prepared, level area suitable for placement.

If the site does not have clear and unobstructed access, additional charges may apply. Examples include (but are not limited to):

  • Use of specialized equipment or machinery
  • Fence removal and reinstallation
  • Obstacle removal
  • Restricted access requiring additional labor

Any additional costs required due to access limitations will be discussed with the customer prior to delivery whenever possible.

 

 

Optional Pad Installation

 

If you purchase a shed pad or playset pad installation, The Hardscape Store will:

  • Professionally prepare and install a properly leveled foundation
  • Ensure proper structural placement on the prepared surface
  • Guarantee the integrity and levelness of the installed pad

Our pad guarantee applies to workmanship and proper installation of the foundation. This ensures your shed or playset is placed on a stable, professionally prepared base.

 

 

Customer Site Preparation Requirements

 

To avoid delays or additional charges, customers must:

  • Provide safe and clear access to the installation site
  • Remove obstacles, debris, or barriers prior to scheduled delivery
  • Ensure pets and personal property are secured

Failure to meet site requirements may result in rescheduling or additional service charges.

 

 

Delivery Inspection & Damage Policy

 

A representative will be present at the time of delivery.

Customers should:

  • Inspect the product upon delivery
  • Report any visible damage immediately

If damage occurs during shipping or installation, we will address and correct the issue promptly.

 

 

Warranty Coverage

 

All sheds and playsets are covered by a structural manufacturing warranty.

This warranty covers defects caused by:

This warranty does not cover issues resulting from improper site preparation, ground shifting, misuse, or external damage.
