Contract

[helpsy]

Going on from my thread about payment, I was wondering if anyone had any examples of T&C's or contracts they could post on here, as a guide.

I was told years ago,it was a waste of time putting loads of terms and conditions on the back of invoices and quotations, as if unreasonable would be no good in a court of law and could be deprimental,so leave blank and normal contract law applies
But maybe something like below my help

If I do a bit,you pay a bit,If I do some more,you pay some more
My prices ar'nt cheap,but they are said to be fair
And I wipe my feet when I walk through the door
I respect my surroundings and damage no wear
I sheet the work area and dress in correct safety gear

I will use quality materials,that will last you a good while
Cutting no corners,carrying off projects in style
I will respect your property as if it was my own
If you have any after sales quaries,you just have to pick up the phone

We have no contract and works carried out on trust
I will carry out my part but prompt payments are a must
I gave you my estimate,you found fairer than most
Do'nt try to play me with lost cheque books or payments in the post

Cash flow is important and you know the final outstanding ammount
Works were finished on time and now its time to pay your account
I take cash,cheque,bank transfer or card,so stick to what was said
Be honourable,pay up now or wake up next to a horses head

Boom!Boom!

join the FSB, federation of small businesses. its about 200 quid a year and the best 200 we ever spent.

If you end up in dispute, they handle it. They help with putting together contracts etc etc. Try getting all that from a solicitor for 200 quid. Home page of the Federation of Small Businesses - FSB - The UKs Leading Business Organisation
