The
Small Print
• All turnaround times quoted apply to normal jobbing work only, and the times are determined as 24-hour blocks, from 2pm to 2pm, Mondays to Fridays. These guidelines only apply for work received into our receiving area, and does not include time in transit to and from Heat Treatments.
• If any preparation work is required before processing can be undertaken, (e.g. pre-cleaning, annealing, plating-off, centreing pins, etc), the turnaround time may be delayed accordingly.
• For work to be processed efficiently, customers’ should endeavour to have their work at Heat Treatments premises by 2pm at the latest, or the work may not start to be processed until the following day.
• Customers’ work should be ready for pick-up after 2pm on the day of completion of processing, or for Auckland deliveries the work can be dispatched on our van the following day.
• Turnaround times for larger quantities and/or batch work, and large work pieces, can be provided by arrangement.
• On occasions where quicker turnaround times are required please contact us directly to see if this is possible, however, these are handled as exceptions on a case by case basis and a surcharge may apply.
• These “turnaround” times are a guide to assist our customers with their planning. They are supplied with our best intentions and a high confidence level of achievement, however, on the rare occasion that we may not meet these guidelines, whatever the circumstances, Heat Treatments Limited will not be held liable for any loss or damages suffered.
