Additional compensation for failure to supply

steampowered

Generally, you can claim for financial losses suffered as a result of the company breaching its contract with you by failing to deliver the doors.

The fact that you terminated the contract does not limit you to claiming for only 1 month. If you terminate a contract because the defendant breached the contract, you would usually be entitled to all of your losses flowing from the termination. The only counter-argument the defendant could use in response would be trying to say that going to a new supplier was failing to 'mitigate your loss'.

As unholyangel mentioned, you have a problem with the law around 'remoteness'. I think the building loan is too remote and can't be claimed for - unless you could prove that you told the building company about the loan.

Did you sign a set of T&Cs when you purchased the doors? If so, that is likely to have terms excluding liability for the kind of losses you mention.

So all in all, it sounds like you could have a valid claim. But there are a number of legal roadblocks. It is sounding 50/50. Up to you whether you issue a court claim and take your chances, or whether you decide it isn't worth the hassle and walk away.
