Return Policy

Policy Overview

Scentwratelier provides professional landscape design services. Due to the custom nature of our services, returns and refunds are handled on a case-by-case basis. This policy outlines the general guidelines for returns, refunds, and cancellations related to our landscape design services.

This Return Policy complies with applicable consumer protection laws and regulations, including state and federal requirements where we operate.

Return Period

The return period varies depending on the type of service or product:

  • Design Services: Design work is generally non-refundable once completed and delivered. However, you may request revisions within 14 days of delivery if you are not satisfied with the initial design.
  • Uninstalled Materials: Materials that have not been installed may be returned within 7 days of purchase, provided they are in original condition and packaging.
  • Plants: Plants that have not been installed may be returned within 3 days of purchase, provided they are in healthy condition and original containers.
  • Installation Services: Installation work that has begun is generally non-refundable, but concerns about quality may be addressed through repairs or corrections.

Return periods may be extended for items covered under warranty. See the Warranty Coverage section below for details.

Design Services

Once landscape design work has been completed and delivered, design fees are generally non-refundable as they represent custom creative work tailored to your specific project. However, if you are not satisfied with our design work, please contact us within 14 days of delivery to discuss potential revisions or adjustments.

Return Conditions

To be eligible for a return, items must meet the following conditions:

  • Return must be requested within the applicable return period
  • Items must be in original, unused condition with all original packaging and tags
  • You must provide proof of purchase, such as an invoice or receipt
  • Items must not have been installed or used
  • Items must show no signs of damage, wear, or deterioration

A restocking fee of up to 20% may apply to returned items, depending on the type and condition of the items returned. This fee covers handling, inspection, and restocking costs.

Return Shipping Costs

The responsibility for return shipping costs depends on the reason for the return:

  • Defective or Damaged Items: We will cover the cost of return shipping for items that are defective, damaged, or incorrect due to our error
  • Change of Mind or Buyer's Remorse: You are responsible for return shipping costs if you simply change your mind or no longer want the items
  • For local customers, we may offer pickup service for returns, subject to availability and scheduling

All returns must be shipped using a trackable shipping method. We recommend using insured shipping for valuable items. We are not responsible for items lost or damaged during return shipping if you choose an uninsured shipping method.

Non-Returnable Items

The following items and services are generally non-returnable and non-refundable:

  • Completed design work and design consultations, once delivered
  • Plants, materials, or products that have been installed or used

Exceptions may apply for items that are defective, damaged, or incorrect due to our error, or as required by applicable consumer protection laws.

Plants and Materials

Plants and materials that have been installed as part of a landscape project are generally not returnable due to the custom nature of installation and the perishable nature of plants. However, if plants fail to establish due to defects or installation issues covered by our warranty, we will replace them in accordance with our warranty terms.

For uninstalled materials that have not been used, returns may be accepted within 7 days of purchase, provided the items are in their original condition and packaging. A restocking fee may apply.

Installation Services

Installation services are custom work performed on your property and are generally non-refundable once work has begun. However, if you are not satisfied with the quality of installation work, please contact us immediately to discuss resolution options, which may include repairs or corrections.
