03Investment

All retained mechanic's lien, stop notice, and bond rights under applicable state law are preserved.

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

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 60 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.
