Garage Door & Opener Replacement

This proposal covers replacement of the {{door_size}} garage door at {{client_address}}.

Scope of work

• Disconnect existing opener; remove old garage door, tracks, and hardware; haul off-site for proper recycling

• Inspect framing and header for rot or structural damage; minor reinforcement included (major repair quoted separately)

• Install new {{door_brand}} sectional door with insulated panels (R-value typically 9–18 depending on panel)

• Install new tracks, hinges, rollers, and bottom seal

• Install new high-cycle torsion springs sized for the door weight (10,000+ cycle springs included)

• {{windows}}

• Install new {{opener_brand}} with safety eyes and emergency release

• Program 2 remotes and HomeLink/MyQ smart home connection per manufacturer instructions

• Balance door, test safety reverse, and verify smooth operation

• Provide owner with operation manual, warranty registration, and tutorial

What's included

• New door with manufacturer warranty (lifetime on panels, 5–10 years on hardware/springs depending on brand)

• New opener with manufacturer warranty (typically motor lifetime, parts 5 years)

• All hardware: tracks, hinges, rollers, springs, cables, brackets

• 2 remotes + outdoor keypad (where supported by opener model)

• Old door and opener removal and recycling

• 1-year workmanship warranty

Estimated duration: 4–6 hours same-day install. Garage operational immediately upon completion.

Start date: on or about {{start_date}}, typically 5–14 days from order (door panel lead time varies by manufacturer and color).

Total contract price: {{total}}

Payment schedule:

• **40% deposit** at signing — authorizes door and opener order

• **Balance** on substantial completion (door installed, opener programmed, owner walkthrough complete)

A standard manufacturer warranty is registered to the homeowner; documentation provided at closeout.

40% deposit at signing to authorize order; balance on substantial completion. Payment due within 3 business days of completion.

Invoices are due upon receipt. Payments more than ten (10) calendar days past due accrue a service charge of one and one-half percent (1.5%) per month on the unpaid balance, or the maximum rate permitted by law, whichever is less. {{contractor_name}} reserves the right to stop work and preserve lien rights if any progress payment is not received within five (5) business days of the due date. All retained mechanic's lien, stop notice, and bond rights under applicable state law are preserved.

The following items are specifically NOT included in the contract price and are the responsibility of {{client_name}} unless added by written Change Order:

• Permits, plan-review fees, and jurisdictional inspection fees unless explicitly itemized above

• Repair or remediation of pre-existing code violations discovered during the work

• Asbestos, lead paint, mold, or other hazardous material abatement

• Structural engineering, architectural drawings, or third-party design services

• Finish selections, fixtures, or appliances not listed in the itemized scope

• Work on concealed systems (electrical, plumbing, HVAC, framing) beyond the points of connection identified

• Landscaping restoration beyond returning disturbed areas to rough grade

• Post-completion cleaning beyond construction broom-clean

• Header or framing reinforcement beyond minor repair (quoted separately if structural rot found)

• Drywall repair around opening (paint/texture by owner)

• Electrical outlet for new opener if not currently present (typical add: $180–$340)

• Door painting beyond factory finish (typical add: $300–$700 for custom paint)

• Insulation upgrade or weather sealing of garage walls

• Smart home hub or Wi-Fi extender if signal is weak in garage

This proposal is based on the following assumptions. If any assumption is incorrect, the contract price and schedule are subject to adjustment by Change Order:

• Site access is available during normal working hours (7am–5pm, Monday–Saturday)

• Adequate parking is available within 100 feet of the work area

• Electrical power and potable water are available on-site at no cost to contractor

• Existing structural elements, waste lines, water supply, and electrical service are in serviceable condition unless noted

• {{client_name}} will remove personal property, artwork, and valuables from the work area prior to start

• Work is based on a single mobilization; re-mobilization required due to delays outside contractor's control will be billed at current rates

• Existing opening is square and within standard tolerances for the chosen door size

• Header and framing are structurally sound for new door weight

• Existing 110V electrical outlet is available within 6 ft of opener mount location

• Wi-Fi signal reaches the garage for smart opener features (where applicable)

Any modification to the scope, specifications, materials, or schedule set forth in this agreement must be authorized in writing as a Change Order signed by both parties before the work is performed. Each Change Order will describe the modified scope, any adjustment to the contract price, and any impact on the schedule. Verbal instructions do not modify this agreement. Additional time and cost associated with unforeseen conditions — including but not limited to concealed rot, asbestos, mold, faulty prior installation, unmarked utilities, or code-required upgrades triggered by the work — will be documented as a Change Order and billed at the rates stated in this proposal or at {{contractor_name}}'s then-current published labor rates, whichever is in effect at the time the condition is discovered.

{{contractor_name}} warrants the workmanship of the installed work for a period of one (1) year from the date of substantial completion. Manufacturer warranties on materials and equipment pass through to {{client_name}} as provided by the manufacturer and are the exclusive source of any material warranty. This warranty does not cover normal wear, abuse, neglect, acts of God, subsequent work performed by others, damage from settlement or movement of the building, or modifications to the installed work performed without written consent. To make a warranty claim, {{client_name}} must notify {{contractor_name}} in writing within thirty (30) days of discovering the alleged defect and allow reasonable access to inspect and repair.

This proposal is valid for 30 days from the proposal date ({{proposal_date}}). Pricing is subject to change after that date due to material market fluctuations and scheduling availability. Acceptance requires signature below and receipt of the deposit amount stated in Payment Terms. Upon acceptance, this proposal, together with any attached specifications and subsequent written Change Orders, constitutes the complete agreement between the parties and supersedes any prior oral or written discussions.
