Description

Simon's pond book - published 2022

I believe that a water feature, in the form of a pond or aquarium, can contribute to moments of rest and relaxation. Therefore I would like to share my knowledge and make sure that people can build their own pond and enjoy it. This without having to perform a lot of maintenance. For that reason I have summarized all the questions that have been asked over the years regarding ponds and water features in Simons Vijveradvies.

    Do I have a guarantee on my plants?

    Our plants are grown with the utmost care. Special attention is paid to the development and growth of the plant. When packing your order, a quality control also takes place. So you can be sure that the plants you buy from us are in perfect health.

    Have you received plants and are you not sure of the quality? Let us know within 48 hours after delivery, using this form. Please include a photo so we can take a look and advise you. If it turns out that the plants are really not of good quality, we will of course give you a guarantee on your purchase.

    Other articles

    For all other (non-living) items you buy from us, the legal warranty applies. Legal guarantee means that a product is or should be what the consumer may reasonably expect from it. For some products there is also a manufacturer's warranty.

    How long is the warranty valid?

    If it appears that you are entitled to the growth and bloom guarantee it is valid for 1 year from the date of purchase.

    What is my warranty certificate?

    Your invoice or proof of purchase is also your guarantee certificate. You can save your invoice in your account. That way you will never lose it again. Handy, right?
