There will be a 30-day hold for all COM or custom template orders. If more time is required we will need the request in writing via email to support@outdoorfabriccentral.com.
If we do not receive the COM, template or written extension request, the order will be canceled. A 25% or $75 custom fee, whichever is greater, will be charged.
Since we do not stock custom fabricated goods, we are unable to accept returns of custom fabricated products, sewing services or repairs. We will always work with you on any concerns you may have with the custom products or services ordered to achieve a satisfactory outcome. The only returns deemed acceptable would be for material defects or if a product was not made to the specifications that you the customer provided.
We will take full responsibility for the costs of modifying and/or correcting any mistakes that we may have made. If we are unsuccessful in fabricating or sewing a finished product or repair using the specifications provided by the customer, as long as:
- The customer contacts us within ten (10) business days after receipt of the finished product.
- The customer agrees to allow us the appropriate amount of time to modify and/or correct our mistake.
- The customer cooperates with the return of the product, by allowing us to schedule the pickup by our ground carrier and making the product available for the pickup return.
- All authorized returns for modifications, corrections or repairs must arrive back in new condition. They must not have been used in any way, and arrive back in the same packaging as when they were shipped.
- All returns will be inspected in accordance with the original order and to the customer specification(s). If we deem the fabrication, sewing or repair was completed to the customer's original order and specifications and also within our tolerances, then the customer will be responsible for all costs incurred with the return process and the return of the product(s).

- Canceling the out-of-stock items
- Holding off shipment of your entire order until the product is available
- Receiving a partial shipment of the in-stock items first and the out-of-stock items when they are available
- We will help in finding substitutes for discontinued products, as well as offer the ability to cancel with a refund or obtain store credit for future use.
- We process sample swatch orders as a courtesy. There is a limit of 1 sample per fabric pattern, per customer and a limit of 10 free samples per order with a total of 20 free samples annually.
- Sample swatch availability changes frequently and samples often become out of stock once a fabric has been slated to be eventually discontinued by the manufacturer.
- Most Sunbrella samples are stocked in house and are provided either free or for a nominal mailing charge.
- Exclusive collections - fabric samples are placed on your behalf, direct with the fabric mill. In the event that a paid-for sample cannot be fulfilled, we will refund you the amount that you paid in the form of store credit to be used on future orders or as a refund back to your original form of payment.
- If a fabric sample is out of stock or discontinued, we are happy to research and provide you with suitable alternative choices.
