Return and Exchange Policy

At DISTANTMOUNTAINWHISPERS, we are dedicated to delivering high-quality, custom design and construction services. Due to the personalized and project-specific nature of our work, returns and exchanges are handled on a case-by-case basis, with fairness and transparency as our guiding principles.

This policy applies to any physical products we may offer (e.g., material samples, merchandise) and clarifies our stance on refunds, exchanges, and cancellations for both products and services.


2. Custom Design and Construction Services

  • Design consultations
  • Drafting and architectural plans
  • Permitting support
  • Project management
  • Construction work

Change Requests

We understand that adjustments may be needed. Clients may request changes during the design or construction phase. These will be accommodated where possible, and may incur additional costs depending on the nature and timing of the changes.

  • Sample materials (wood, stone, finishes)
