Terms & Conditions
Terms of Use
These Terms and Conditions (the “Terms and Conditions”) govern the purchase of products and services (the “Work”) identified in the Proposal by the Customer from the Contractor. By signing and returning the Proposal, the Customer accepts these Terms and Conditions. Together, the Proposal, these Terms, and the Sales Confirmation constitute the entire agreement between the Parties (collectively, the “Agreement”). Any terms proposed by the Customer that are inconsistent with these Terms and Conditions are expressly rejected. Neither the Contractor’s silence nor the delivery of products or services constitutes acceptance of any such terms. The terms “Party” and “Parties” refer to the Customer and Contractor individually and collectively. Capitalized terms not defined herein have the meanings assigned to them in the Proposal.
Scope, Substitution, and Changes
The Contractor will exercise ordinary care in performing the Work described in the Proposal for the agreed price. The Customer acknowledges their responsibility for choosing the equipment and specifications, and any liability arising from non-accepted Contractor recommendations is assumed by the Customer.
If the Contractor determines the equipment and specifications, such decisions are based solely on information provided by the Customer and do not constitute an independent evaluation.
The Contractor will endeavor to complete the Work as per the timeline in the Proposal but reserves the right to make minor changes or substitutions in equipment, materials, or supplies that do not materially alter the quality, cost, or timeline without prior Customer approval.
The Contractor retains title to all materials and equipment until the Customer has fully paid as per the Agreement. Extra work requested by the Customer not specified in the Proposal may require separate Proposals and advance payment.
All changes to the Work, including deductions or set-offs, must be documented and agreed upon in writing by the Contractor to be enforceable. Work is performed during the Customer’s normal working hours unless otherwise stated. Warranty work is conducted during the Contractor’s business hours unless the Customer agrees to pay the overtime labor rate.
Term and Termination
Term
The Agreement term begins on the date the Proposal is signed by both Parties and continues until the Work is completed.
Termination by Customer
The Customer may terminate this Agreement if the Contractor breaches the Agreement and fails to cure the breach within ninety (90) days of receiving notice.
Termination by Contractor
The Contractor may terminate the Agreement for cause, including but not limited to non-payment or breaches by the Customer. In such cases, the Contractor is entitled to compensation for completed Work, including design, installation, and associated administrative costs. If termination arises due to non-payment or other Customer-caused issues, the Contractor is also entitled to recover lost profits.

Obligations
The Receiving Party must not disclose or use Confidential Information outside the scope of this Agreement without prior written consent from the Disclosing Party.
