Terms And Conditions


Does anyone have a template of standard terms and conditions they use in their proposal they wouldnt mind sharing??

I have one for my paving proposals but most of it wouldnt apply to an excavation and I was hoping to build a new template for that division and not beat my own brain doing it.

Rock, poor soil conditions, water, any unforeseen debris or structures encountered in the excavations may incur additional charges.
That's all I got, it ain't fancy but works for me. I change the wording as needed.

I try and keep things as simple as possible.

We have hit on this topic before, a while back, and there were some good ones as I recall but don't know how to find it.

I found some stuff.

I did not look at the posts in these threads but I know there may be some of what you're after in there. I did a search for "rock clause".

Re: Terms And Conditions


You're right, that link went nowhere. I had done a search for "Rock Clause", and thought I was posting a link to the results, well so much for the "easy" way.

Here are some threads that have discussions about unforeseeables.

http://www.contractortalk.com/f62/contract-claus-54778/

http://www.contractortalk.com/f62/rippable-rock-33832/

http://www.contractortalk.com/f62/rock-clause-32404/

http://www.contractortalk.com/f62/ro...er-foot-24296/

http://www.contractortalk.com/f62/ro...ontract-19332/

Probably some redundancy in those posts, but plenty of good reading.
