Order Cancellation Policy
If you would like to cancel your order, please contact our Customer Support Team immediately.
With the exception of Special Orders and Job Orders, typical orders may be canceled at any time prior to shipment to avoid a Restocking Fee. Please note that an order is not deemed canceled until it is confirmed canceled by a PlumbTile Representative. Special Orders and orders in which special pricing is given are non-cancelable from the time they are placed. By default, a store credit for future purchase(s) will be issued for all canceled orders. Should you desire a cash refund, a Cancellation Fee of 12% will be applied to the refunded amount.

Shipping
For orders within the 48 U.S. Contiguous States and with a pre-tax sub-total of less than $99, PlumbTile charges a shipping fee of $19.99. For all other orders, with some exclusions (usually for heavyweight items and other circumstances) PlumbTile provides FREE shipping by UPS Ground serving the 48 Contiguous States in the U.S.
For orders outside the 48 Contiguous States, a shipping charge will be calculated based on the delivery location, weight of the product, as well as additional factors such as crating and foaming. Due to certain system limitations shipping charges do not show up at the time of checkout. Instead, a customer service representative will contact customers by phone and/or e-mail to confirm the shipping charge prior to processing the credit card payment for the original order. For items that are shipped by common carrier, we can provide curbside delivery only.
For orders in Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, outside continental US and Canada, please email us () for a shipping quote.
Certain items, such as tubs, toilets, basins, sinks, mirrors, mirror cabinets, and tile are shipped by common carrier. These are usually shipped directly from the manufacturer. Allow a 5-7 working-day delivery time for common carrier deliveries, unless requesting expedited or rush deliveries.

Missing Orders
There are some orders, particularly of smaller products, that do not require a signature upon delivery. plumbtile.com will always notify you when your order has shipped and provide you with tracking information. Please remain up to date on your order's progress and retrieve it promptly upon delivery.

If you cannot find an item that was recorded as delivered, please notify us promptly within 24 hours. Most likely, there was a misunderstanding or misplacement by your spouse, housekeeper, neighbor, etc. We'll work to help you get to the bottom of it.

Unfortunately, however, we cannot issue any refunds or replacements for an order that the delivery company recorded as delivered, even if it was lost or stolen after delivery. If you would like a signature to be required upon delivery, kindly request that at the time you place your order.

Expedited Orders and Rush Delivery:
If you would like to expedite your order and rush deliver a product, please email us () to inquire about product lead time and availability. If an item is in stock at PlumbTile, it will usually ship the same day. If it is not in stock, we may be able to have it shipped directly to you from the manufacturer as soon as it becomes available, or we can arrange to have it delivered to you as soon as we receive it.

Sales Tax:
We collect sales tax on items purchased at PlumbTile for deliveries to these states: Colorado, California, Connecticut, Georgia, Illinois, Kansas, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Virginia, Washington.

Product Inspections:
We hope that your order arrives safely and that you are satisfied with your purchase. However, please remember that when the order arrives it is your responsibility to ensure that the product has not been damaged during shipping by the freight company. Inspect the box for external damage, remove the packaging and inspect the contents for any physical damage in the presence of the delivery driver. If there is any damage, visible or not, you must indicate such on the delivery receipt. When you sign the delivery ticket and do not note any damage, the unit becomes your property.
Again, please take the time to inspect the delivery and if there is any damage be sure to note it on the delivery ticket. If the damage is severe enough to render the product inoperable or unusable, please refuse the shipment and contact us immediately.

Warranty
All products are covered by the manufacturer’s warranty as well as any other warranty required by law. Each product description page includes the general warranty information for each manufacturer when you click on “Learn more about a Manufacturer”.
The current manufacturer’s warranty replacement policy does require that a refundable deposit be made in order to provide the new part. Such deposit is refunded once the credit is acknowledged by the manufacturer. Warranty replacements are subject to certain fees, which depend on the manufacturer honoring the replacement.
If you have more specific warranty information questions, please contact us.

Money Down
Because the majority of our products are special order, your credit card will be charged at the time that you place your order. In order to clarify any confusion, this is because we place orders with the manufacturers on your behalf. Once we order the items, we are often unable to cancel or must return and pay a restocking fee. Therefore we consider this charge a “100% deposit”. If you have any questions or concerns regarding this policy, please contact us.

Price Matching Policy
PlumbTile takes pride in offering the best value on bath, shower, kitchen, tile and other home improvement products at the most competitive prices. Whilst we do our best to ensure that we are offering the best pricing once in a while our competitors may offer the same product at a lower price.
We want to know about it!
We promise to do our best to meet or beat any website offering the same products at a lower price - offering you a better value on your purchase, including our first class service.
To provide the PlumbTile Price Match Service, we need to know more about what our competitor is offering:

  • Please provide brand and model number. This is to ensure that the items are exactly the same.
  • Proof of our competitor’s item price. This might include the URL of the specific product on their website, a faxed quote or an original copy of a printed advertisement.
  • Your contact information including name, email, contact phone number and region.
  • Unfortunately we can not meet the price of a last-ditch blow-out sale due to bankrupt closeouts and discontinuation of product lines but we can provide infinitely stronger service in the long run!
To notify us of a lower price found elsewhere, please complete the PlumbTile Price Matching Request Form or email: .
Please note:
  • All requests for the PlumbTile Price Matching Service must be submitted BEFORE you make your purchase.
  • PlumbTile reserves the right to limit the number of items it allows in a specific Price Matching request.
  • While we will take the costs of shipping, taxes and import duties into consideration and do our best to work around these costs, shipping, taxes and import duties are not covered by our Price Matching Service.
  • The PlumbTile Price Matching Service only covers prices charged on new products. It does not cover any rebate offers.
We appreciate you giving us the opportunity to meet your needs and will do everything in our power to earn your continued business and referrals!

MAP Policy
