    SHIPPING POLICIES

      Ground Shipments:

      Orders for in-stock items received before 2pm EST Monday - Friday typically ship within 24 hours and in most cases ship same business day from our Massachusetts warehouse. In certain situations, we may ship USPS or drop ship direct from a manufacturers' warehouse to expedite transit time.

      Expedited Air Shipments:

      All expedited air shipments should be placed by 11am EST Monday - Friday in order to ensure same day shipping but every effort will be made to fill orders after cut-off time. Customer requesting expedited shipments will be notified promptly if any ordered item is out of stock and be given the opportunity to change or cancel the order.  We will not ship HAZMAT products (e.g. paints, aerosols) via air under any circumstances. Finishing Focus will not refund shipping charges for delays in shipment due to carrier error.

      Carriers & Shipping Rates:

      Finishing Focus uses UPS® and FedEx® to ship most orders as well as US Postal Service (USPS) to ship small packages.

      Upon checkout, you will have the option to select the level of service to suit your needs. If you prefer a particular carrier, we may be able to accommodate you; please contact an Finishing Focus representative to place your order and make alternative shipping arrangements at Sales@FinishingFocus.com. If it is critical to use a particular carrier for your packages, please make a note of this during checkout.

      All shipping rates outside of our promotional shipping program are calculated by carrier based on weight, distance and type of freight service selected. Certain overweight, large, bulky or hazardous goods may require special shipping arrangements and/or incur additional charges; in these instances you will be contacted.

      Shipping Confirmation:

      Confirmation and/or tracking numbers are normally sent via email within 1 day from shipment. Please note, it may take up to 24 hours for tracking information to appear in carriers system. If you use AOL email service or use a spam filter, please check your spam folder for shipping confirmations. For questions regarding shipments, please contact us at Sales@FinishingFocus.com.

      Signature Service:

      For your protection, purchases over $200 require an Adult Signature for delivery; there is no additional charge for this service. Customers may decline Adult Signature service by adding a note upon checkout but Finishing Focus will not be responsible for missing packages for which signature service was declined. Customers may request Adult Signature service for orders under $200 but a $3 fee will be assessed. Finishing Focus will not be responsible under any circumstances for missing packages delivered by carrier in which adult signature service was not authorized; for missing packages, these matters must be handled by customers directly with the appropriate carrier.

      HAZMAT: 

      We only ship HAZMAT products (e.g. epoxy, paints, aerosols, solvents) via ground shipping. We will not ship HAZMAT items via air under any circumstances.

      Upon checkout, several shipping options will be offered but our system does not differentiate between non-HAZMAT and HAZMAT items; please do not choose an expedited air shipping option for HAZMAT type products as they will ultimately ship ground. If you have questions about what is considered HAZMAT, please contact us at Sales@FinishingFocus.com.

      Non-deliverable Shipping Address: 

      Please make sure you provide us with a correct shipping address and contact information. If an item is returned due to an address being deemed non-deliverable by freight carrier, the total shipping charges incurred both ways plus a twenty-five (25) percent restocking fee will be deducted from any refund given.

      Shipments to Alaska, Hawaii, US Territories and Canada:

      We will ship most items to Alaska, Hawaii and Canada with exception of HAZMAT. We may ship certain HAZMAT items to Canada. Please contact us for a shipping quote at Sales@FinishingFocus.com; please include product(s) description and quantity, your name, shipping info and phone number.

      The freight costs for items shipped to Canada only include the cost of the ground shipping; any taxes, duties or brokerage fees are the responsibility of the buyer and due upon delivery.

      BACK ORDERS

      Inventories are updated frequently but there may be times when we sell out of a particular product during the day resulting in a back order. Back orders are typically filled in three to five (3-5) business days. In the event of a split shipment order, you will only be charged once for shipping (standard ground orders only). 

      CANCELLATIONS

      Any cancellation must be approved Finishing Focus. Cancellations may be subject to a fifteen (15) percent restocking fee and shipping charges will not be refunded if the packages have already left our warehouse. To cancel a shipment en route, please contact us at Sales@FinishingFocus.com. If product has shipped, a refund will not be given until the product has been received back at our warehouse.

      FRAUD PROTECTION

      We take credit card fraud seriously. Often times, customers are not aware that their credit cards have been flagged for fraud review by their financial institution. Transactions that appear suspicious or under fraud review by a credit card company may require verification from customer before order is shipped; in these instances, customers may be notified by an Finishing Focus customer service representative for verification of the order. Failure to provide a contact phone number during checkout may result in additional shipping delays.

      WARRANTIES

      Warranties are solely the responsibility of the manufacturer and the final determination of warranty adjustments rests with the manufacturer of the product. We will do all we can to expedite warranty adjustments but cannot assume responsibility which is that of the manufacturer. Tools and Equipment deemed defective are the sole responsibility of the respective manufacturer and are not returnable; customer must contact manufacturer for tool inspection for repair and/or replacement.
