Any agreement of this sort is to be documented on an estimate/invoice.

PAYMENTSFOR SERVICES –The Recipient will pay compensation to the Contractor for all services completed. Payments will be made as follows:

Permitting, sales taxes and disposal fees will be included in the estimated price and will not be added to the final invoice amount. The Recipient is responsible for all permitting fees associated with their project, regardless of if the work is completed. Permits are submitted for by the Contractor up to one business week before the completion of the job, typically within 72 hours of the job scheduled. If the project is canceled after the permit is pulled, the Recipient is responsible for the permitting fees and taxes in its entirety. This will be sent as a separate invoice after cancelation. A 3%credit card processing fee will be added but can be voided if the invoice is paid by check or cash.

Cancelation of scheduled installations must be done more than 72 hours in advance of the start date. If a cancelation occurs within 72 hours of the start date, a 15% restocking fee will be invoiced to the Recipient along with any permittingfees and taxes acquired for the project. The invoice will be Net 10 terms (payable within 10 business days)and a 3% credit card processing fee will be added if applicable.

Down payments will only be refunded if a job is canceled more than 72 hours in advance. If the cancelation occurs less than 72 hours before the scheduled job, the restocking fee, permitting fees and taxes will be taken out of the down payment, and the remainder will be refunded in the manner which it was collected.

Any services rendered outside of the original agreement will be given as a separate change order invoice and will be paid in full upon completion.
