Returns & Exchange Policy
Please return your items for a refund or replacement within 30 days of receiving your goods.
All items must be returned with your returns note completed or proof of purchase presented.
To be eligible for a refund or exchange, your item must be unused and in the same condition that you received it.
Items must be returned in fully resalable condition, which means being unused and in the original packaging and within 30 days of purchase. House to Haven reserves the right to refuse a refund on items deemed not to be resalable or not in original packaging.
You are responsible for the cost of returning your item(s) to us, unless you received a faulty, damaged or wrongly despatched item. Please contact us via hello@housetohaven.co.uk with a photo of the damaged goods within 2 working days of receiving your order.
If an item it delivered back to us damaged due to it not being packaged well for transit, House to Haven reserves the right to refuse a refund.
If an undamaged item is returned to us outside of the 30-day time frame, a credit note (valid for one year) may be issued, at the discretion of House to Haven.
We will inspect the returned item and will notify you of your refund or replacement via email. We try to process returns as soon as possible once they have reached our store. However, please allow 3 to 10 working days from the day of receipt in our store for your returns to be processed.
We will typically refund any money owed to you using the same method originally used by you to pay for your purchase. If it’s not possible we will contact you via telephone or email. You will receive a Refund Email Confirmation as soon as the refund has been issued.
Returned goods found to be used, damaged, marked or scratched will not be refunded or exchanged, and will be returned to you. This also applies if an item has not been packaged properly and has been damaged in transit back to us. We may issue a partial refund via credit note at House to Haven discretion.
Items that cannot be returned
We cannot accept returns of washed and/or used textile (beddings, cushions, towels, etc), door mats, candles, or of products with non-replaceable LED bulbs after use of the bulb beyond its recommended lifespan (bulb lifespan hours as stated within the product information on the appropriate product page). For hygiene reasons we cannot accept earrings and hair accessories.
Larger items
If you have a large / fragile item which was delivered, the goods must be in their original packaging and we will not accept the item back without it and will therefore not be able to arrange a collection via our couriers. Please note we will not refund items returned to us, using an alternative service if the items are not in the original packaging.
Damaged & faulty goods
Please ensure that you check all items on receipt, as faulty or damaged items must be reported within 7 working days of receiving the parcel, or within 30 days should the fault develop after receipt. As per your statutory rights under The Consumer Rights Act 2015.
A photo of the damaged / faulty item will need to sent to us prior to any refund or replacement being issued. If you cannot send us pictures of the damage / fault, you will need to return the item to us, at your own expense. We will then inspect the item and if our inspection confirms the damage / fault, we will refund your return cost (please note we will only refund the collection cost we would charge) and issue a replacement (if in-stock) or a refund as appropriate.
Once we have received pictures of the damage / fault and/or carried out our inspection, and the item is deemed to have a manufacturing defect or is not fit for purpose, we will offer you a replacement, a repair or a refund.
Please note, under the Consumer Rights Act 2015, any manufacturing fault occurs within 6 months of receiving your product, we will offer a replacement or a refund.
We cannot be held responsible for items that are damaged for something that was the result of normal wear and tear.
