01Scope of Work

reqai rewritable

This proposal covers the underlayment replacement and tile reset at {{client_address}} — approximately {{roof_squares}} squares of {{tile_type}}.


Tile removal

Protect landscaping, pool, and AC equipment below work area

Carefully remove existing tiles, palletize on roof for reinstall

Tiles broken during removal are replaced from {{contractor_name}}'s matching-tile inventory; if an exact match is unavailable, the closest match is blended across the roof plane rather than grouped


Tear-off & deck inspection

Tear off existing underlayment and battens

Inspect roof deck; replace damaged sheathing up to 2 sheets at no additional cost (overages per field ticket)

Inspect and re-nail loose decking


New underlayment & flashing

Install {{underlayment_spec}}

New metal valleys (painted W-valley or rolled valley per plan)

New metal flashings at walls, chimneys, skylights, and all roof penetrations

New pipe jacks (lead or rubber per {{client_name}}'s preference)


Tile reinstall

Reinstall tiles per original layout with manufacturer-approved fastening (screw, nail, or foam-set per spec)

Bird-stop or weep screed at eaves

Hip and ridge tiles bedded in mortar or attached with approved mechanical system; color-matched mortar


Closeout

Full broom-clean of roof and grounds

Magnetic nail sweep

Walk-around with {{client_name}} and warranty registration

02Schedule

reqai rewritable

Estimated duration: 5–8 working days. Tile roofs take longer than shingle roofs due to careful tile handling and two-layer underlayment install.


**Days 1–2:** Tile removal and palletizing

**Day 3:** Tear-off of underlayment; deck inspection

**Days 4–5:** New underlayment install, flashings

**Days 6–7:** Tile reinstall

**Day 8:** Ridge, hip, punch, cleanup


Start date: {{start_date}}. Substantial completion: {{completion_date}}.

03Investment

req

Total contract price: {{total}}


Fixed-price payment schedule:


**Deposit: {{deposit}}** — signing

**Underlayment complete: 40% of balance** — dry-in complete, confirmed with photos

**Final: remainder** — upon substantial completion and walk-around


**Sheathing replacement (beyond 2 sheets included):** $95 per 4x8 sheet.

**Replacement tiles (if existing inventory insufficient):** at cost + 15%, with photo documentation.

04Payment Terms

req

Underlayment draw invoiced day-of; balance invoiced at completion; each draw due within 5 business days. Retained lien rights; release provided with each payment.


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.

05Exclusions

reqai rewritable

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

Stucco repair at wall-to-roof intersections (priced separately if required)

Chimney flashing reglet cutting into masonry beyond standard counter-flashing

Solar panel removal and reinstall

Rain gutter replacement

Attic ventilation upgrades beyond code compliance

Interior water damage repair

Tile upgrade to new product (this proposal reuses existing tiles)

06Assumptions

reqai rewritable

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 tiles are generally in reusable condition; broken-tile ratio above 15% may require Change Order for tile purchase

Roof structure supports tile dead load (tile roofs typically require trusses engineered for tile; confirm on original plans)

Access to rear of home is available for dumpster and material staging

07Change Order Process

req

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.

08Warranty

reqai rewritable

{{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.

09Validity & Acceptance

req

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.
