Under the terms set forth below, Customer agrees to purchase the services of CAAL in preparing and constructing the landscaping as set forth in the Project Description, and CAAL agrees to render such services. As consideration, Customer agrees to pay CAAL the amount shown as “Total” in the Project Description (“Contract Price”) in exchange for performing the services described in the Contract Description. The parties further agree as follows:
PAYMENTS
Customer will pay CAAL 40% of the Contract Price upon acceptance of the Proposal. CAAL will invoice the customer for the remaining balance when work is substantially complete, as determined by CAAL The invoice shall be paid by Customer within 7 days of the invoice date. If the total balance is not received by CAAL by the end of the 7-day period, interest will be paid on that balance by Customer at a rate of 10% per month including solicitor’s fees. No warranties will be issued until full payment is received.
PLANTS
CAAL will offer one-time only replacement of any tree, shrub, evergreen or woody vine that has died within one (1) year from the date of installation, provided the plant has been cared for as instructed, and not misused. CAAL will not replace plants killed by animals, rodents, insects, mechanical damage, neglect, natural disasters or other reasons over which CAAL has no control
CHANGES
CAAL will make reasonable efforts to complete the Contract as designed. Circumstances may arise beyond the control of CAAL that may prevent construction of the Contract exactly as planned. CAAL will make reasonable efforts to minimize this impact on the design and construction. Customer acknowledges this possibility and accepts the action CAAL will take to minimize the potential change in design. If Customer wishes to change any part of the installation after this agreement is signed, but prior to commencement of installation, which results in additional material or labor costs for CAAL or results in delays in the completion of the Contract, said costs will be added to the remaining balance of the Contract and billed as part of the original Contract
PROJECT START AND COMPLETION
An estimate of the number of days to complete the contracted work and an expected start date are provided as a courtesy. There may be delays in the beginning date and completion date due to poor weather or other circumstances beyond the control of CAAL. Those delays will not alter or invalidate any part of this Contract, nor will they entitle Customer to additional rights under the Contract.
PLANNING
Planning is the responsibility of the client. Any construction or landscaping that may require Planning consent or environmental consents are to be completed before construction starts. Any reference material can be supplied upon request.
ESTIMATES
CAAL will make reasonable effort to accurately estimate the materials needed to complete the Contract. However, Customer acknowledges that there may be differences between the estimate and the final price. If the actual price is less than the estimated Contract Price, that amount will be discounted on the final payment due CAAL. If the actual price is more than the estimated Contract Price, that additional amount will be added to the final payment due CAAL. Customer will pay CAAL that additional amount.
