Deals can be made for an all inclusive rate that encompasses labour, kit and sometimes travel.

These deals come with caveats in respect to overtime. See below.

OT is then charged at 2xT (double time) every hour thereafter.
OT is also subject to employment regulations about rest time between calls to base.

Equipment hire is exempt from OT charges; unless part of an "all-in" deal.

"All-in" daily rates are subject, in full, to OT charges.

Equipment Insurance Responsibility

All kit provided by me for use on production is rented to the production company and should be covered by Production Insurance. This is especially relevant to equipment not in my direct control; i.e. radio mics, IEMs or other kit used by people other than myself.

All equipment lost or damaged by cast or crew through misuse or misadventure must be covered by Production Insurance.

Production are also responsible for kit held in storage areas, both on the day and overnight.

International bookings must also provide appropriate travel insurance.

Full breakdowns of kit values are available on request.

​

SALES

From time to time I offer used items for sale.

All items are sold as described and as pictured.

If you think a description is unfair or misrepresented then I will consider returns and refunds.

Queries are welcome on all items prior to purchase.
 

Payment Terms

All invoices must be paid in a timely fashion in accordance to the payment terms of the invoice.

I am not a creditor. Any client suggesting payment terms in excess of 30 days will be rejected.

Invoices left unpaid beyond the agreed timeframe will be subject to late payment charges of 10% of the invoice amount per week.

Debts unpaid after 30 days of the invoice date are subject to statutory late payment charges and interest.

Interest charged and collection fee to be charged in accordance with gov.uk guidelines.
