Do you have Insurance?

keyboard_arrow_down

Castles n Chaos hold a policy of Public Liability Insurance for 5 Million Pounds worth of cover. Please be aware that NO Insurance Company offers protection for 3rd Party users. In other words, you will only be covered on our, or any other hire companies’, policy if we, or they, are supervising the equipment during use, or if we/ they are found to be negligent in our/their duty as a hirer, in a court of law. Any accident willhave to have been caused as a direct result of our / their negligence if you choose hire only. Please call for further explanation and evidence.

Where can the Inflatable be Set up

keyboard_arrow_down

Inflatables can be set up indoors or outdoors, however there are some considerations to be taken into account. If indoors, it is your responsibility to ensure that there is enough space to accommodate the equipment, making sure you avoid any low lights, beams and, of course, fire exits.If outdoors, Inflatables should be set up on a flat area of grass where safety pegs can be driven into the ground. Gravel & Tarmac. Current Health & Safety Legislation does not recommend the use of inflatable equipment on tarmac or gravel surfaces, even with the use of sandbags. We are advised by our manufacturer that this is because you would require a van load of sand to give the same protection as the peg fixings which is, of course, not a practical solution.

Are there any Booking or Cancellation Charges?

keyboard_arrow_down

In respect of single Event bookings, the deposit is non - refundable.

Do you require a Deposit?

keyboard_arrow_down

When booking we ask for a deposit of £10 per client to hold the equipment or Service. When hiring inflatables, any balance is due in cash upon delivery.  You may also pay for your booking in full instead of paying a deposit. The choice is yours.

How much space is required for an Inflatable?

keyboard_arrow_down

Different units require different amounts of space. Please see our measurement for individual unit requirements for both the footprint measurements and the overall space required. For gardens, remember to take into consideration overhanging trees, rose bushes, pathways, washing lines and access requirements. For indoors, remember to check the position of fire exits, hanging lights and ceiling heights and we recommend that you don’t accept “ we’ve had loads of bouncy castles in here before, so it should fit” as adequate checks for units fitting in halls! Please check out our Hall guide to see what we can tell you or, if you are unsure, then please contact us to arrange a site survey.

What time can I expect delivery and pick up?

keyboard_arrow_down

Our home deliveries start at 8am and will usually be completed a minimum of 1 hour before your party start time. We ask that clients give us as much flexibility at the time of booking to help us accommodate as many clients as possible. We try not to impose strict limitations on how long you can use the equipment for and always try to accommodate customers at a time which suits them best, with pick up times when parties have finished! To help us achieve this, please be prepared to inform us of the time you get up in the morning and the start and finish times of your party. We stop collecting at 8pm and expect all our clients to respect this time and ensure their event is closed by then.

Also, please ensure pooper scooping, grass cutting, bush and tree trimming are all completed and cleared in advance.We love our customers but we don't enjoy trying to install a bouncy castle in a garden full of rubbish or dog poop!
