Videtta Heating & Plumbing Boiler Cover Terms and Conditions

Overview
At Videtta Heating & Plumbing we aim to make everything as straightforward as we can.

Our terms and conditions are written in plain English and are as jargon-free as possible. If you would like any help or more information, please get in touch with our customer services team at sales@videtta.co.uk

In these Terms & Conditions Videtta Heating & Plumbing Limited (a company registered in England & Wales with company number 8745975) will be referred to as ‘the Company’ and the person ordering the product will be referred to as ‘the customer’. The registered address of ‘the Company’ is Clarence House, 35 Clarence Street, Market Harborough, Leicestershire, LE16 7NE.

This contract forms a maintenance agreement between ‘the Company’ and ‘the customer’. It is at the sole discretion of Videtta Heating & Plumbing to whether any repairs or replacements detailed in this contract are provided outside of the annual service.

Your contract
1. Commencing your cover
Your contract with us begins on the day you purchase home cover with us.

Failure to notify us of any existing issues with your home, including but not limited to the following, will result in your home not being covered and/or your service not being completed.

Boiler, flue, controls
Gas central heating system
Radiators
Pipework

2. Length of contract
Your initial contract for home cover is for 12 months.

After the first 12 months, your cover will continue on a rolling one-month contract.

3. Your payments
Payments are made on a monthly basis by direct debit. All prices are inclusive of taxes.

Missed payments
If you miss any payments, you will be required to pay any outstanding balance before we complete your annual service or come to your home to fix issues with your heating system.

Contract price changes
The price of your contract is shown on your Policy Summary document, which will not change during the first 12 months of your contract. We reserve the right to change the price of your contract after the initial 12 month period, and will inform you of any price changes in writing.

4. Cancellation of your contract
Cooling off period
Your cooling off period is the 14 days after you make the purchase of Home Cover. If you wish to cancel within the cooling off period, you will receive a full refund of any payments made in relation to the policy less any costs already incurred to ‘the company’. If you have already had a service completed within the 14 day period, you will be required to pay the remaining amount due based on the current cost of a Videtta Heating & Plumbing service.

Cancellation
If you wish to cancel before the end of your 12 month contract, you must inform us by phone. You will be required to pay the remaining balance on your contract if you wish to cancel. For example, if you have 3 months remaining on your contract, you will be required to pay for 3 months before we can cancel your contract.

Cancellation of your direct debit does not mean your contract is cancelled. If you cancel your direct debit, we will contact you to collect payment. If you fail to set up another direct debit, we will cancel your contract 30 days after the first payment failed and collect the remaining balance from you.

5. Our cover plans
What’s included in your plan
For detailed information about what is included in your plan, please refer to your Policy Summary document.

Landlords and homeowners
Our homeowner plans are only suitable for home owner occupied properties. If your property is tenanted, you will need to take up one of our Landlord cover plans. It is your responsibility to take up the correct plan, and if you choose the incorrect plan we may not be able to complete your service or home visit.

6. Your personal information
Using your personal information
We will make use of your personal information in accordance with our privacy policy, which can be found on our website.

Keeping us up to date
It is your responsibility to keep us up to date with your personal information and home address.

If you move home, your cover will no longer be valid as your contract is for the address covered at the start of the contract. Please contact us if your covered address changes so we can discuss your policy with you.

If you make any changes to your boiler or heating system, it is your responsibility to inform us as soon as possible. Failure to do so may result in your cover being invalidated.

7. Contacting you
We may need to contact you from time to time about your plan with us. By purchasing your cover with us, you are agreeing to receive email and telephone communications in relation to your policy.

8. Home visits
Annual service
We will contact you to arrange your annual service at a time that is convenient to you. You do not need to contact us unless you need to update us with information about your boiler, previous services or your heating system.

During peak periods, we may need to prioritise breakdowns. As such, there is a possibility that we will not be able to arrange your service to be within 12 months of your previous service. We will work with you to arrange your service as soon as possible if this happens.

Visiting your home
If we need to remove any fixtures or fittings in your home to complete the repair, we will let you know before starting. We won’t be able to completely make good of any repair by replacing or restoring to the original specification.

The boiler and any other equipment that needs routine servicing (such as filters, valves, pumps and controls) should be kept readily accessible and in particular the clearances around the boiler should be maintained as set out in the manufacturer’s instructions. If a service engineer attends and cannot access equipment, or the required clearances have been compromised in a way that prevents the item being serviced or operated safely, then the obstruction will need removing prior to any re-attendance to complete the service or repair work.

If there is any asbestos present at your property, we will be unable to carry out the appointment until you have provided us with a “certificate of reoccupation” to prove that all asbestos has been removed and that it is safe to return to the property.

You are responsible for arranging access to your home, and you will need to re-arrange the appointment if we are unable to enter.

Missed services
We will not offer a cash alternative if a service or home visit is missed for any reason.

Third party warranties
It is your responsibility to make sure that your warranty is not affected on any appliance covered by third party warranties. We will not be liable if any work we carry out on your system doesn’t comply with the manufacturer’s warranty.

Cover suitability
Videtta Heating & Plumbing cover is only suitable for domestic dwellings. If your boiler is installed in a commercial property, or if the meter capacity is greater than 6 cubic metres per hour, we won’t be able to cover you. If you sign up and we later find out that we cannot provide cover, we will cancel your policy.

Rental income
Videtta Heating & Plumbing will not take liability for any loss of rental income for any reason. This includes, but is not limited to breakdowns, missed services and delays to the issue of Landlord Gas Safety Certificates.

9. Safety and security
Our priority is your safety and the safety of our engineers visiting your home. We won’t start any work at your home if we deem it unsafe to do so upon arriving for the appointment, and we won’t be able to enter your home unless there is an adult present for the duration of the visit.

10. Repairs and replacements
Replacement parts
Whenever we provide you with replacement parts, we will issue you with a product that has similar functionality to the replaced parts. They may not be the exact part or product that is being replaced. You can provide a replacement part yourself and we will install it providing it is on our approved list of replacement parts.

For older parts that we are no longer able to source, we will do what we can, within reason, to source and fit alternative parts that will allow us to complete the repair.

Repairs and replacements not covered by your policy
On occasion we may inform you that your heating system needs repair that is not covered by the contract to keep it working safely. We will not be able to complete any additional repairs until you have fixed the issues based on the advice that we have provided.

Our work guarantee
We will repair or replace any faulty parts that we have supplied to you during a repair or replacement. We will fix any faulty work carried out within 12 months of the date that we completed the work.

Sole discretion
We will carry out repairs or replacements at our sole discretion. Videtta Heating & Plumbing cover is a maintenance contract, and not an insurance contract, so we reserve the right to use our own judgement to decide whether the requested repair or replacement is covered by your policy. Given this, we are not registered with the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), and these contracts are therefore outside of the remit of the FCA.

We will not carry out repairs or replacements for issues that arose before you took out cover with us, or that have been intentionally damaged or misused beyond reasonable use. We reserve the right to use our judgement in deciding when the damage happened, and whether the way in which the part was damaged is covered under your contract.

11. General exclusions
Your policy document illustrates what is covered and what is not covered in your contract, however some general exclusions apply to all contracts. These include, but are not limited to:

Cost of repairs required due to design faults or faults which existed prior to the commencement of this contract

Cost of repairs relating to damage caused by you or any third party

Any loss or damage to any property caused by the boiler or system breaking down, e.g. for damage to carpets or ceilings due to water leaks (not directly caused by us)

Cost of any work, which is carried out without our approval, or the cost of repairing the installation or any fault which someone who does not work for us has caused

Cost of removing sludge, hard-water scale or adding corrosion inhibitor to the system

Cost of removing asbestos

Repairing any part of the system which are inaccessible in line with the current Health and Safety standards

Repairing or replacing designer or curved radiators
