Kitchen Cabinet Replacement

This proposal covers removal and replacement of approximately {{linear_feet}} linear feet of kitchen cabinetry at {{client_address}}.

Scope

• Demo and haul-off of existing upper and lower cabinets (countertops protected or removed per plan)

• Patch and prime drywall behind demolished cabinets

• Install {{cabinet_brand}} per approved cabinet plan

• Install cabinet hardware per owner selections

• Reinstall or replace countertops per plan: {{countertop_plan}}

• Reconnect sink plumbing (shutoff-to-drain; no new rough plumbing included)

• Touch-up paint as needed on adjacent walls

Appliances are disconnected for access and reconnected after installation. Built-in refrigerators, double ovens, or appliance garages requiring custom sizing are noted in Pricing.

Estimated duration: 3–7 days once cabinets are on-site. Cabinet lead time is typically 4–10 weeks depending on product and supplier.

Start date: on or about {{start_date}} (after cabinet delivery confirmed). Owner will have a functional kitchen within 2 business days of cabinet installation via reconnected plumbing and temporary countertop support if countertops are being replaced.

Total contract price: {{total}}

Payment schedule:

• **Deposit: {{deposit}}** — at signing; authorizes cabinet order

• **Balance:** due upon substantial completion and walk-through approval

Deposit at signing; balance on substantial completion. Payment due within 3 business days of invoice.

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

• New plumbing rough-in or electrical circuits (reconnection of existing only)

• Appliance purchase or replacement

• Flooring (protected during installation; replacement priced separately)

• Crown molding or soffit work beyond the included filler strips

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 countertops are undamaged and can be reinstalled, or owner has selected replacement material

• Cabinet order is placed by {{contractor_name}} after deposit is received; field measurements taken same week as deposit

• Existing plumbing and electrical are code-compliant and in working condition

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.
