Basic Elements of a Good Window Replacement Contract

By

Share

A contract is a written agreement that outlines the business relationship and scope of work so that no party can claim any misunderstandings down the road. One way to protect yourself from getting ripped off is signing a fair and transparent contract. So what does a good window installation contract look like? Below are the basic elements you should look for.

Window Replacement Contract

  • Contact Information. This includes the name of the contractor, mailing address, phone number, email address and fax number, if applicable. This part of the contract ensures that you can reach your contractor before, during, and after the installation, especially when you encounter any problem, such as a material defect or installation error.

  • Proof of License and Liability Insurance. A contract should include a proof of the business license as well as the insurance policies they carry, including liability insurance. These details signal the legitimacy and integrity of the contractor.

  • Project Overview. This section describes the scope of work in full detail.

  • Cost Breakdown. An honest contract includes a breakdown of the replacement windows you ordered and their costs. Each window installation unit should have an in-depth description.

  • Warranty Coverage. All warranties that come with your purchases should be reflected in this section. It should also stipulate what you must do to file a claim.

  • Payment Schedule. A progress payment is conventional in window replacement, particularly a whole-home improvement. This section details when you should pay an agreed-on amount.

  • Change Procedure. In the event a change order is required, this segment of the contract provides a precise and clear procedure to carry out the modification in the original plan.

  • Termination Clause. A termination clause lists the acceptable circumstances either party can pull out of the contract without repercussions.

  • Dispute Resolution. In the rare case that you do not get the products or services you wanted, this part provides a possible course of action to straighten out the disagreement with your contractor.
