WHAT HAPPENS NEXT?

 

You feel that you might like to use a marquee for your event, but wonder how you go about finding the right marquee, the right equipment and the right advice all at a competitive cost.  How will Compass Marquees deal with your business?

  1. Give us a call 01622 851515, send a fax 01622 859660 or email.  We will nearly always answer the phone in person.  When we are out of the office the phone is diverted to a member of staff and it is only as a last resort that you will get our answering service.  Please leave a message, we will return your call as soon as possible.

  2. We will ask you a few questions to help us get a rough idea of your proposed event before writing to you enclosing an information pack and requesting a meeting.

  3. The meeting is very important.  Except for the very simplest of jobs, we will not give you a firm quotation until we have inspected the site and discussed your requirements and expectations with you.

  4. We will endeavour to find out precisely what you need for your event so that our quotation is totally inclusive with no hidden extras.  We will draw a floor plan of your marquee and send it to you attached to an itemised quotation.  The prices in the quotation are fixed (as long as the quotation is accepted within the time stated) and will not be increased prior to the event no matter how far in advance the booking is made.

  5. We will modify the floor plan and quotation until you are happy that we are quoting for precisely what you want.  Once you accept the quotation, please sign one copy and return it to us with your deposit.  By signing the quotation you are also signing agreement with our Conditions of Hire, a copy of which will have been sent to you in the Information Pack and with our quotation.

  6. On receipt of the signed quotation, subject to availability, we will accept your order and send you a confirmation note.  We are happy to add or subtract items from your order at any stage until about a week before the event.

  7. A couple of weeks before the event we will contact you to arrange a delivery date and time.  We will always try to have the marquee for a wedding or large party erected at least 24 hours in advance of the event.

  8. Once the marquee is erected and all the equipment is on site, we will ask you to sign a delivery note.  Normally payment is due at this stage.  By signing the delivery note you accept responsibility for the equipment as defined in our Conditions of Hire and we strongly recommend that you arrange for event insurance to cover your liabilities from this stage or to agree to our optional waiver.

  9. Normally you will not see us again until we return to take the tent down and remove the equipment but, don't worry, you are not forgotten.  If you have any problems with our equipment or worries concerning your event we are on call 24 hours a day.

  10. Have a wonderful party!

  11. The marquee will be struck and the equipment removed from your site at the time agreed with you.  When we leave your site is will be left clear of all of our rubbish.  (please note, however, that we are NOT responsible for catering or other rubbish unless this has been agreed in advance)
