14.2 For images or Pictures: If you have selected a picture to be added to a piece of made to measure glass, please note the aspect, ratio and size of the image may vary slightly. For example, if your Splashback is wider than taller (landscape) it could look different than an image taller than wider (a portrait image).
14.3 If you are mixing and matching glass from our industry sized glass, and glass from our premium bespoke made to measure range, please note that just like wallpaper from B&Q different batch numbers of glass can result in very light colours seeing minor variations, this will can be evident in items ordered at different times, even if the same design.
14.4 In the highly unlikely event of your item sustaining damage in transit, or failing our stringent quality control, it may take little longer if we have to create another piece of glass to fulfill your bespoke order, however, 98% of orders take around 14 -21 working days.

14.6 Different monitor, brightness or even battery saving settings can mildly impact the colours and shades of the images you see due to the individual device settings.
14.7 Glass Standards Terms
14.7.1 Visual Distortions/imperfections Roller wave is a common type of visual distortion that may be visible in toughened glass. It is caused during the toughening process when the heated and slightly molten glass is passed over large rollers while it is cooled. As a result the glass may have a slightly waved finish to the surface. This does not affect the strength or durability of the toughened glass and is only visually detectable under certain circumstances. As a rule, the visual appearance of roller wave in glass is not classed as a glass defect. Upon inspection we will use the guidelines as detailed below whilst looking through the glass in natural light. The glass will be classed as ‘acceptable’ if the following are neither obtrusive nor bunched together:
14.7.2 Bubbles or blisters no longer than 25mm. Small holes partially or wholly enclosed by glass which normally contain air. These may be spherical or non spherical dependant on the mode or formation.
14.7.3 Fine scratches, no longer than 25mm. A long narrow surface flaw produced by a hard object which produces a perceptible depression. Minute particles no longer than 1mm. Loose manufacturing detritus that may remain within the unit after manufacture. Sleek no longer than 25mm. A fine scratch with no perceptible. Scare no longer than 25mm. A scratch which is visibly white.
14.7.4 Inclusions,Insoluble matter retained within or on the surface of the glass during manufacturer. Visual effects. Toughened and Toughened/laminated glass as used in Liverpool Splashback installations is a processed glass. It is acceptable that a small amount of distortion may be visible through such glass. Using sealed glass units increases the number of reflections which may accentuate any visible
visual distortions. In addition, metal oxide coatings such as low E coatings may produce momentary visual effects in the surface of glass. Please note this document has been produced to quantify acceptable tolerance of glass quality for manufacturer and client. Its purpose is to set a reasonable baseline on what is permissible within specific parameters.
