Mosaic Parcel Deliveries
Most mosaic orders, including glass, ceramic, porcelain and natural stone mosaics, are dispatched through our parcel courier service.
Mosaic orders shipped by parcel courier are exempt from additional remote-area, offshore and Northern Ireland delivery surcharges.
This means:
-
No additional regional delivery surcharge for mosaic parcels.
-
No additional surcharge for parcel deliveries to Northern Ireland.
-
No pallet delivery charges for orders dispatched by parcel.
-
All mosaics are securely packaged to minimise the risk of damage during transit.
Standard delivery charges may still apply depending on the order value and destination.
Please note that larger or heavier mosaic orders may require pallet delivery, in which case the relevant pallet surcharges will apply.
Pallet Deliveries & Additional Charges
Larger tile orders and heavier consignments are generally delivered on wooden pallets through our national pallet distribution network.
For pallet deliveries to restricted postcodes, remote areas, offshore locations and Northern Ireland, the following surcharge applies:
£100 PER PALLET
This charge applies per pallet, regardless of order value, including orders qualifying for free standard mainland delivery.
For example, an order requiring two pallets to a restricted postcode will incur a total surcharge of £200.
Important: These additional charges apply exclusively to pallet deliveries. Mosaic orders dispatched by parcel courier will not incur these regional surcharges.
Restricted Postcodes & Offshore Locations
The £100 per-pallet surcharge applies to the following areas:
Scottish Highlands & Remote Areas
FK20–21, G83–84, PA21–38, PH33, PH36–41, PH49–50, AB, IV0–39, IV63, KW1–14, PH19–32, PH34–35.

How Will My Order Be Delivered?
Depending on the size and weight of your order, deliveries are arranged through either a parcel courier or a pallet distribution service.
Parcel Deliveries
Smaller orders and eligible mosaics are securely packaged and delivered by parcel courier.
Pallet Deliveries
Larger tile orders and heavier consignments are securely loaded onto wooden pallets to minimise handling and protect the products during transportation.
Please note the following:
-
Pallet deliveries are generally kerbside only.
-
Larger orders may require multiple pallets.
-
Delivery vehicles can be similar in size to a refuse collection lorry.
-
Customers must notify us in advance of restricted access, narrow roads, steep driveways or other potential delivery difficulties.

A responsible adult must be available to receive and inspect the delivery.
If nobody is available to accept the goods, additional redelivery charges may apply.
Receiving & Inspecting Your Delivery
We recommend inspecting your order carefully upon arrival.
-
Check that the correct number of parcels or pallets has been delivered.
-
Inspect the external packaging for visible signs of damage.
-
Check the delivery note against the items received.
-
Record any visible damage or shortages on the delivery paperwork, where possible.
-
Take photographs of any damaged goods or packaging and contact us promptly.
Please ensure that anyone accepting the delivery on your behalf is aware of these procedures.

Missing Items
If any items are missing from your delivery, please notify us as soon as possible.
Where possible, record the shortage on the delivery paperwork and provide supporting photographs.
