UP CLOSETS TERMS AND CONDITIONS
YOUR AGREEMENT TO UP CLOSETS TERMS & CONDITIONS
By paying your Deposit and otherwise granting your consent to move forward with your Up Closets Custom Project, you (“You” or “Customer”), agree to be bound by these Up Closets Custom Project Terms & Conditions, as follows
APPROVAL OF FINAL DESIGNS; FINAL QUOTE
You approve the final Designs (“Designs”) reference by your final Quote (“Quote”) and authorize Up Closets to create, design, order, build, and install a custom-made project (“Up Closets Custom Project”), customized exactly to the specifications of you Designs (including as to measurements, colors, finishes, and hardware).
TERMS OF PAYMENT
You commit to pay 100% of the amount due as stated in your Quote. A non-refundable deposit (“Deposit”) of 50% of the total Quote amount is due before Up Closets will begin your Up Closets Custom Project. The balance of the Quote is due, in full, upon Installation of your Up Closets Custom Project. We do not offer terms or financing. Up Closets accepts cash, check, Visa MasterCard, and American Express credit cards.
INSTALLATION DATE
Up Closets will contact you to schedule your Installation (“Installation”) on a date (“Installation Date”) that is convenient for you. Every effort will be made to honor the scheduled Installation Date, however, the date is subject to change due to variables beyond Up Closets’s control, in which event a new mutually agreeable date will be scheduled at no additional charge. If your Premises has specific restrictions or require unusual building logistics for delivery or installation of your Project, please notify Up Closets when your Installation Date is scheduled.
INSTALLATION PROCESS
Certain steps taken by you will make the Installation Process smoother. Make arrangements so that the Installers can enter your Premises immediately upon their arrival. Prior to Installer’s arrival, it is the homeowner’s responsibility to remove any existing shelving or attachments to walls or in the space to be installed. The walls and room should be clear of all items. If the walls are not clear, Up Closets will charge a fee to prep the area. Up Closets does not typically use backing so make sure to paint and repair your walls before installation! It is much easier to paint before installation than to paint after. Generally Up Closets do not have backing so painting should be completed prior to the Installers’ arrival. You should designate a Work Space (“Work Space”) area suitable for on-site cutting of materials. Also, you must remove all fragile valuables and other personal property in the Installation Space (“Installation Space”) and Work Space areas. Up Closets is not responsible for personal property damaged in the Installation process.
Upon the completion of Installation, fully inspect your Up Closets Custom Project and report any defects, issues, objections, questions, or concerns, within 30 days of your Installation Date.
IMPORTANT: Children must remain clear of the Installation Space and Work Space at all times. Pets should be leashed or otherwise contained at all times during the Installation process.The installers will use best efforts to clean up the Installation Space and the Work Space after the Installation process is complete. However, please understand that the Installation process may produce sawdust.
RESCHEDULING YOUR INSTALLATION
You may reschedule your original Installation Date with no less than 7 business days’ notice at no charge, receipt of which is confirmed by Up Closets. Any change in the installation date with less than 7 business days notice will result in a charge equal to 10% of the job.
EXTENDED INSTALLATION
Your Installation process may be extended to more than one day if the Installers need extra time once they assess your particular Installation Space. Extra Installation time will be completed at your convenience, at no additional charge.
INCOMPLETE INSTALLATION
If, upon the completion of the Installation process, your Up Closets Custom Project is fully installed and significantly complete, but is for any reason in need of any no structural adjustments or additional parts (i.e. drawers or hardware), ornamental changes (i.e. finishes being changed), or other such adjustments (“Adjustments”), you may withhold payment of 10% of the total remaining balance of the Quote until such Adjustments have been fully resolved.
ADDRESSING GAPS BETWEEN SYSTEMS AND WALLS; BASEBOARDS.
Up Closets Custom Projects are attached to the walls using brackets. They are installed level and plumb. Most walls and floors are not perfectly straight and flat, therefore, there may be small gaps in between your project and the walls. If you would like to purchase extra trim moldings to cover any gaps, they can be purchased at an additional cost. Most Designs have taken this into consideration. The baseboard is typically left in place and the vertical panels are attached at the bottom around the baseboards. In some instances Up Closets removes the baseboards.
FEES ABOVE AND BEYOND QUOTE
Up Closets reserves the right to require additional fees or charges, if: Changes Post-Final Designs. Changes are made to your final Designs after approved by you; Prolonged Installation Process. The Premises for your Installation are located in a high-rise building or other location with logistics and/or restrictions which substantially increase the Installation Process time, or if the Installers are required to spend more than an average amount of time preparing the Installation Space, or if the Installers are waiting for entry to the Installation Space, or if the Installers are required to remove unplanned shelving or other materials in order to install your Project; Re-Scheduling of Installation Date. You reschedule your Installation Date with less than 7 business days notice given to Up Closets. Custom Hardware not received. All special orders that are not supplied by CO must be in our possession at the manufacturing facility at least two weeks for the installation date. If this is not met, a service call will be required.
PAST DUE AMOUNTS
Any past due amounts owed by you to Up Closets by more than 30 days are subject to accrual of interest at the rate of 2% of the total amount due, per each month past due, plus all costs of collection, reasonable attorney’s fees, court costs and other expenses.
SUPPLIERS AND INSTALLERS
Up Closets will at all times be your contact, and all payments will be made to Up Closets. Up Closets will, however, engage experienced, reputable parties, including suppliers and installers, to complete Up Closets Custom Projects.
