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.

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".

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.
