I have ran upon a snag on one of my jobs. The lady has two cats. I told her when I started that the cats would need to be kept in a room while I was doing the work. I further explained to her that if I were to come to the job and the cats were not locked up I would charge a $150.00 rescheaduling fee( very elusive these cats).
So, I'm doing some book cases in her den, staining, sealing, finishing. I'm working on the bottom cabinet doors applying urethene when voila here come the cats screaming down the LR one runs square into my bucket of urethene and gets it all over her
. I'm chasing the cat around trying to at least wipe some off when Mrs. Catluver walks in, sees her cat and freaks, grabs the cat and off to the vet.
She denies having ever been told about the damn cats and wants me to foot the bill (we're in negotians)
Nothing that can't be handled.I now have a lengthy stipulation about animals on the job. But I have learned a valuable lesson on contracts. Mine is lacking terribly. Would some of you more seasoned paint contractors care to share some of the language you use on your contracts. It would be greatly appreciated.
Oh...she just had 5K worth of carpet installed in the LR good thing I was workin under a good cloth, eh? :Thumbs:
