Cancellation and Returns Policy

All orders are “special order items” and are placed on our suppliers abroad at time of payment receipt. Goods are not held in stock in South Africa but with our suppliers abroad.

Cancellation is only possible before the order has been shipped from our supplier abroad as all orders are “special order items”. Please contact us immediately  to understand whether cancellation is possible. No refunds will be allowed in the event of cancellation for special order items that have already been ordered and despatched from our suppliers abroad.

Unfortunately, we do not accept any returns due to the “special order” nature of the purchased item. Please make sure at time of ordering that the wallpaper product code and quantity is correct. Dreamweaver Studios cannot be held liable for any mistakes at time of ordering. 

In the unfortunate event of an error order or fault, please return the unopened rolls to Dreamweaver Studios in the event of an order error and in the original packaging and with the labels, in the event of flawed rolls. Please do note that it is the customer’s responsibility to check all wallpaper products for faults before and during hanging.

We cannot accept cancellation due to a delay in delivering the order, however we undertake to inform the customer of any undue delay that may be incurred due to circumstances beyond our reasonable control. We will do our utmost to deliver within our agreed timelines during the COVID-19 pandemic and our team monitors shipments daily. If we run into any delays, please bear with us as certain aspects of the importation of goods is outside of our control. 

Flawed Products - Returns and Refunds

The person receiving the purchased item(s) will be required to sign a Proof of Delivery (POD)/Delivery note indicating that each item has been received in good condition and in this regard we urge you to take the necessary time to investigate and check the purchased product. Dreamweaver Studios cannot be held liable for any damages that were not indicated on the POD/Delivery note at time of delivery. Due to procedures with courier companies during the pandemic, one may not be asked to sign the documents but one needs to advise the person delivering, to note that the parcel was damaged upon receipt. Should the product/s be damaged or flawed on delivery, it is the customer’s responsibility to notify Dreamweaver Studios within 48 hours, and we will endeavor to replace the item in question.

It is the customer's responsibility to thereafter check the wallpaper to ensure it is the correct code, correct quantity and correct quality ordered. Our returns policy for incorrect or flawed goods lasts for 14 days whereafter the return will not be accepted, so please check the sealed rolls timeously to avoid disappointment.

When installing the wallpaper, carefully open the sealed rolls and inspect for any damage or flaws. Once installation begins, examine the first 2 or 3 lengths on the wall, to ensure there are no faults which were not previously visible. If at this stage you are in any doubt as to whether the paper is faulty, please stop work immediately and contact us. If the product is defective in any way or has a fault, a full replacement or refund will be made at no charge. However, if more than 3 drops are hung and the installation is carried out, no refund or replacement wallpaper claims will be entertained.

Please note that returns are not possible on sale goods. To start your return process, contact us immediately and we will advise how to proceed. All valid claims are subject to assessment by our staff and decisions made are at the discretion of Dreamweaver Studios management. If we are unable to replace the flawed item within 30 days a full refund will be applicable. We do not accept returned goods under any other circumstances. 

Product Quality

Due to the nature of wallpaper, no two batches are the same. This means that the actual product may vary from the sample in colour/construction (although this would not exceed 10% in accordance with industry standards). 

The Customer is hereby informed that natural and novelty products (for example grass cloth, natural fibres, silk or other fabric wallcoverings) have unique characteristics. The visibility of the joints as well as small irregularities, such as darker fibres, slubs or little knots, is characteristic of these products. This may result in a greater degree of shading differences between one panel and another. 

Online Image Colour

Please note that the colour of the online images may vary from the actual items. Every effort is made to ensure that the colour and design of the product appears as accurately as possible, however the actual colours you will see can vary dependent upon your computer/mobile devices and as such we cannot guarantee that the goods on delivery will reflect the colour on your computer.

It is advisable to order a sample before purchasing, to ensure you a happy with the colour and the type of wallpaper.

Delivery Terms and Conditions

Shipping to your designated delivery address will be made by a third party door-to-door courier company appointed by Dreamweaver Studios. Please ensure the correct shipping address is provided from the outset as title and risk will pass to you once the order has left our premises. Shipping to destinations not within South Africa will require a quote, as the shipping costs vary from country to country. 

Once your order is ready for collection or dispatch, you will receive a shipping confirmation email with your tracking number and courier company details. Accordingly, we cannot, to the extent permitted by law, be liable for any damage suffered or loss incurred by reason of any acts or omissions of the deliverer, its directors, employees, sub-contractors, agents, representatives and/or affiliates. Risk shall pass on delivery from us to the courier company. If there is any short delivery or damage to goods in transit, please provide Dreamweaver Studios  with full particulars thereof within 24hours of delivery so that we can assist you in taking this up with the courier company.
