Terms and Conditions of Business

Insurance Cover
Pyrotechnique Ltd (The Company) will have in place, at the time of display, public and products liability insurance cover to a minimum of £5,000.00. This may be increased in certain circumstances, for which an additional fee will be charged. Insurance cover indemnifies the Company against possible claims incurred as a result of faulty materials and/or negligence on behalf of the Company’s operators.

Deposits
Unless otherwise agreed in writing, a deposit of 20% of the cost of the display is required in order to secure a booking. The booking is deemed confirmed on receipt of the booking form and subsequent written confirmation from The Company.

Payment
Full settlement is required within 2 weeks from the date of display. Should it be necessary to recover fees owing to The Company through court action or otherwise, the client will incur additional costs as necessary, including legal costs.

Cancellation Fees
Penalties for cancellation of a confirmed booking are as follows:
Up to 28 days prior to the display: deposit only
28 days or less prior to the display: 50% of the total cost
If the display is cancelled by the client on the day of firing, for whatsoever reason, the total cost is payable.

Suitability of site and permissions
Unless otherwise agreed in writing, it is the responsibility of the client, in the first instance, to seek and gain the necessary permission for a display to be staged at the chosen venue. When permission has been obtained, The Company will undertake all necessary site surveys (as required) and subsequent negotiations on behalf of the client. If in the event that the site is considered unsuitable following a survey, a survey fee of £50 is payable but the deposit for the display will be refunded. It is the client’s responsibility to check with the venue regarding their policy concerning fireworks – particularly in respect of noise. The Company can accept no claims regarding noise nuisance in situations where a low noise display is not requested.

Safety
A display in progress may, at the absolute discretion of the principal firer representing the Company, be aborted or modified should the safety of spectators and/or property be compromised. It is the responsibility of the client and/or the venue management to ensure the general safety of spectators,
Particularly with regard to the provision of appropriate number of stewards, safety barriers etc., unless otherwise agreed in writing.

Adverse Weather Conditions
Only in exceptional circumstances may a display be cancelled by the client due
to adverse weather conditions (see notes 1 and 6 above).
Cancellation charges may apply.

Travel Supplements
Firework displays required at a venue over a 50 mile radius of LE10 0QG may incur an additional cost for which a quotation will be provided. Displays within a 50 mile radius will not incur a travel supplement.
