Returns policy
If you’re shopping with us online or over the telephone, then you’ll be pleased to hear that you are covered by the Consumer Contract Regulations. These have been established to make sure you have an opportunity to cancel your order if the goods aren’t what you expected. After all, we all make mistakes from time to time.
Items must be in brand new condition and show no signs of wear with all original packaging, tags and labels still attached. Original boxes and other containers that products are sold in are considered part of the product and must also be returned in undamaged and unused condition. Items returned without their branded packaging or in a re-saleable condition will not be accepted.
You may return unopened or faulty, defective items within 14 days of delivery for refund/replacement.
UK ONLY: This does not affect your statutory rights – so you may still return sale items for a refund under the Distance Selling Regulation, which requires that you provide us written notification of cancellation within 14 days of delivery.
These regulations don’t apply to anything that has been personalised or to intimate, perishable or time-critical goods
The parcel should contain:
- The item(s) you purchased that you wish to return in their original condition.
- Your original invoice and a note clearly stating which item(s) you are returning and the reasons why you are returning the goods.
You will need to pay for the postage but we will refund the reasonable delivery charge if we have made an error in our dispatch or if the item received is faulty or unfit for purpose, unless you have decided to keep part of the received order. We will also refund your delivery charge if you are an EU customer cancelling within 7 days of receiving of your order under the Distance Selling Regulations.
We are unable to accept any responsibility for items that are lost or damaged in the post. You must ensure that your items are securely packaged, and obtain a proof of posting. Please allow at least seven days for your goods to reach us.
Please allow 14 days to receive your refund.
If you need advice on returning by post, please contact our customer services team sales@homeandbeautydirect.com
Please note that you must be able to provide proof of delivery to us of your returns, so please ensure you retain any tracking information in case we cannot locate your parcel.
Returning fabric & other cut items
Fabric is treated by us as an item made specifically for you, as it is cut from a larger roll and is cut specifically to your required length.
Because of this we provide a sampling service to allow you to ensure that the fabric you wish to purchase is suitable for your requirements both in respect of colour, pattern and quality.
If you wish to return fabric (or other items that have been cut to length as a result of your order), you may return them at your cost, but all items will be subject to a cutting charge. This is purely to cover the waste generated.
The Cutting Charge will be calculated as follows:
- 2m or less of fabric returned – 50% cutting charge
- 3m or more fabric returned – 25% cutting charge
All amounts will be calculated on the price paid for the fabrics at the time of order.
Please ensure that you are totally satisfied for that any fabrics you order are the correct shade by ordering a sample, as all returned fabrics are subject to our cutting charge, regardless of the reason for return.
Any queries regarding the measurements, meterage or length of fabric received must be drawn to our attention within 5 working days of receipt. It is only possible for us to rectify mistakes on the lengths/meterage of fabrics prior to the fabric being cut into. Once a fabric has been cut or altered in any way we cannot be responsible for any shortages in length.
Please note that the colours depicted in our website are only a representation of the colours. Our sampling service is provided to allow customers to see samples of the actual fabric before ordering. We cannot accept any responsibility for colour and/or shade differences between the representations on the website, and the actual fabric (or Ready Made Curtains). Whilst we take as much care as possible, there may be some slight shade variation between samples sent out and the colour of the actual fabric.
Returning made to measure items
Made to measure items (e.g. blinds) ordered and dispatched from our website by us or and third party are not capable of being returned, and they are made specifically for your requirements.
The exceptions apply in the event of defective manufacture or damage in transit. Please see “Accepting and/or receiving Goods From us” in respect of items damaged in transit.

In the event of part of the order being returned, the value of the discount applied on that order will be spread between the goods proportionately. The sum in cash exceeding this value, less any shipping, gift wrap or gift card costs charged on the original order, will be returned to the customer. The promotional discount will not be applied to replacement items, if the offer is still valid at the time of making a return – you should place a new order using the original promotional code. In the event of part of the order being returned, the value of the promotion code will be deemed to be spread between the goods proportionately. The sum in cash exceeding this value, less any delivery or gift box costs charged on the original order, will be returned to the customer. In the event of any returns meaning that the order no longer qualifies for the promotion advertised, we reserve the right to deduct the value of the offer from the refund.
In promotions where there is a free or half price item when purchasing multiple items, please note that the discount will be applied to the cheapest item. homeandbeautydirect.com reserves the right to change our promotional code terms and conditions at any time.
