Warranty / Damage Disclaimer

Warranty coverage is extended to the original purchaser (i.e. Customer) and is non-transferable. Nightscaping is not responsible for stolen or missing items that are left by UPS or any other carrier at the Customers place of business or residence that are not signed for. Please request a delivery signature when ordering if needed.

Lamps and sensitive items with glass inserts are purchased at the Customers own risk. Nightscaping makes every possible effort to carefully wrap and package sensitive parts for the shipping process, however, we are not responsible for any damages as a result of carrier mishandling.

If the packaging is damaged upon receipt, please inspect the items for damage immediately. If any damage has occurred during shipping, the carrier bears the responsibility for this damage and restitution should be sought directly with them. Nightscaping will replace or repair the effected parts at its discretion. Additional charges and shipping fees may apply. If products are received that have been damaged in transit, Nightscaping will help the Customer receive reimbursement from the carrier.

Product Finish and Damage Disclaimer

Nightscaping products are constructed of natural, raw materials such as copper, stainless steel, bronze and high-grade steel which are subject to natural aging over time that will create an aged patina. Naturally, some materials are subject to fading in extreme conditions. Nightscaping’s natural raw steel products will arrive with a “young” finish and you may experience some rust bleeding for a few months until the natural, hardened mature rust finish has set. Please take care not to place the fixture on any surfaces that will be negatively affected by the iron oxide bleeding that may occur through this initial finishing process.

Nightscaping also offers its products with a powder coated finish. This finish is warrantied from defect from a period of 5 years from the date of purchase. Physical damage to the fixtures which results in a chipping of the powder coated finish or incorrect installation procedures may void the finish warranty of the product at Nightscaping’s sole discretion. Powder coated product can be returned to Nightscaping at any point in time for refinishing if desired. Email info@NightscapingUSA.com for pricing and details.

Any product damage resulting from vandalism, negligent abuse or an act of God which is beyond the normal aging and wear of the product determined by Nightscaping to be beyond the ordinary use (excessive) shall void any, and all warranties herein either expressed or implied.
