Terms & Conditions
Tradition. Innovation. Performance.
- Purpose
These Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) outline the rights, responsibilities, and obligations between Holland Construction (“we,” “our,” “the Company”) and the client (“you,” “the Client”) for any construction, renovation, maintenance, or other work you may request. By accepting a quote or contract, you agree to these Terms. - Quotes, Scope of Work, and Acceptance
- Any quote, estimate, or proposal we provide describes the scope, materials, labor, estimated timeline, and pricing.
- This estimate is subject to revision if unforeseen conditions arise during the work (e.g., unexpected site conditions, requested changes, etc.).
- No work will begin until you have accepted the quote (in writing or through another formal agreement) and paid any required deposit.
- Payment, Deposits, and Holdback
- Payment is due according to the schedule outlined in the quote or contract — typically deposits, progress payments, or final payment upon completion.
- We reserve the right to apply a holdback (a retained percentage) until full completion of the project to ensure quality and conformity.
- Any late payment may result in additional fees or suspension of work, as outlined in the contract.
- Changes / Additional Work
- If you request modifications or additional work after approval of the initial quote, these changes must be confirmed through a written change order.
- The cost, schedule, and payment terms for the changes will be defined in the change order before any additional work begins.
- Performance of Work, Standards, and Responsibility
- We commit to performing the work according to industry standards, building codes, safety regulations, and using appropriate materials.
- You agree to provide reasonable access to the property, a safe working environment, and disclose any conditions that may affect the work (e.g., soil issues, structural concerns, site access).
- If unexpected issues arise — unstable soil, hidden structural problems, concealed defects — we will inform you and adjust the quote as necessary before continuing.
- Warranty, Defects, and Corrections
- We guarantee the quality of our workmanship. If defects are identified within a reasonable period after completion, we will repair or correct them at no additional cost, depending on the nature of the defect.
- This warranty does not cover damage caused by improper use, neglect, unauthorized modifications, or external unpredictable events.
- Insurance and Liability
- We maintain all required insurance (including liability insurance and coverage for subcontractors, if applicable) according to legal standards.
- To the extent permitted by law, our liability is limited to the total amount paid under the contract. We are not responsible for indirect damages, loss of profit, or unforeseen consequential losses.
- Intellectual Property
- All content, images, plans, documents, quotes, or materials produced by Holland Construction remain our property unless explicitly stated otherwise. They may not be reproduced or used without our permission.
- Cancellation / Termination
- You may cancel the project before work begins, subject to our agreement and any applicable conditions.
- If you cancel after work has started, fees proportional to work completed may apply.
- We may suspend or terminate work in cases of non-payment, unsafe or unsanitary site conditions, or any serious breach of your obligations.
- Changes to Terms
- We reserve the right to update these Terms at any time. Updates become effective as soon as they are posted on our website.
- By continuing to use our services after updates are posted, you agree to the revised Terms.
- Governing Law and Disputes
- These Terms and any related contract are governed by the laws of the province of Quebec.
- In case of dispute, both parties agree to attempt an amicable resolution first. If no settlement is reached, the appropriate courts within the designated judicial district (e.g., Montreal) will have exclusive jurisdiction.
