  1. ESTIMATES, QUOTATIONS AND FIXED PRICE QUOTATIONS

HomeTech Wales may provide estimates, quotations or fixed price quotations depending on the nature of the work.

An Estimate is an indication of likely costs provided for budgeting purposes only. Actual costs may vary depending on labour, materials, site conditions or other factors identified during the course of the work.

A Quotation is a price for a defined scope of work based on the information available at the time of inspection. Additional charges may arise where variations, hidden defects, unforeseen circumstances, customer requested changes or conditions not reasonably identifiable at the time of quotation are encountered.

A Fixed Price Quotation is a price for a clearly defined scope of work and will not normally change unless the scope of work changes, additional work is requested, hidden defects or unforeseen conditions are discovered, information provided by the customer is inaccurate or incomplete, or delays and additional costs arise from circumstances outside the reasonable control of HomeTech Wales.

Verbal indications of likely costs should be treated as budget estimates only and do not constitute quotations.

  1. Any work outside the agreed scope, including additional requests made during the project, may incur additional charges.
  2. Hidden defects, concealed services, structural issues, previous poor workmanship, rot, damp, infestations, unsafe installations or other conditions that could not reasonably have been identified before work commenced may result in additional costs. These will be discussed with the customer before proceeding wherever reasonably possible.
  3. Customer supplied materials must be suitable for the intended purpose. HomeTech Wales reserves the right to refuse unsuitable materials and may charge for additional time, delays or remedial work arising from customer supplied products.
  4. Customers are responsible for providing reasonable access to the property and informing HomeTech Wales of any parking restrictions, permit requirements, shared access arrangements or other site conditions that may affect the efficient completion of the work.
  5. Time based work is charged according to the actual time reasonably required to complete the work. Delays caused by weather, hidden defects, access restrictions, material availability, customer requested changes or other unforeseen circumstances may affect completion times.
  6. HomeTech Wales will make reasonable efforts to minimise delays and will discuss any significant or non trivial delays, variations or unforeseen circumstances with the customer at appropriate intervals.
  7. Deposits, stage payments or payment for materials may be required for larger projects or special order items. Payment terms will be stated on the quotation or invoice.
  8. Payment is due upon completion unless alternative arrangements have been agreed in advance. Any anticipated delays in payment should be discussed before work commences or materials are ordered.
  9. Customers may retain a reasonable sum against agreed snagging items where appropriate. Unless otherwise agreed, retention shall not exceed 10% of the contract value or £500, whichever is lower.
  10. Waste removal is only included where specifically stated within the quotation.
  11. HomeTech Wales may take photographs for project records, quality assurance and insurance purposes. Marketing use will only occur with customer permission.
  12. HomeTech Wales reserves the right to suspend or terminate work where customer behaviour is abusive, threatening, discriminatory, unsafe or otherwise unreasonable.
  13. Technology services may require access to usernames, passwords, administrative credentials or security settings. These will be handled in accordance with the HomeTech Wales Data Protection and Information Handling Policy.
  14. HomeTech Wales aims to provide a high standard of workmanship and customer service. Any concerns should be raised as soon as reasonably possible to allow an opportunity for prompt investigation and resolution.
