Terms and Conditions
Effective Date: January 15, 2026
Welcome to My Handy Dudes (“Company,” “we,” “us,” “our”). These Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) govern your use of our website, estimates, communications (including SMS), scheduling, and handyman/home-improvement services (collectively, “Services”). By using our Services, you agree to these Terms.
1. Services
My Handy Dudes provides residential and small commercial handyman services, which may include repairs, installs, light carpentry, drywall, painting, small plumbing/electrical tasks (where permitted), punch lists, maintenance, and related work.
2. Estimates, Pricing, and Quote Validity
Estimates/quotes are valid for 30 days from the date issued, unless otherwise stated in writing.
Pricing may change due to material availability, supplier price changes, site conditions, access limitations, or customer-requested scope changes.
Any change in scope after approval may require a revised estimate or written change order.
3. Scheduling, Access, and Delays
Scheduling depends on availability, material lead times, and weather. Estimated start times/dates are not guarantees.
You agree to provide safe, reasonable access to the jobsite (including pets secured, clear work areas, and any required entry instructions).
We are not responsible for delays caused by weather, supplier delays, permitting/HOA timelines, customer rescheduling, or other events outside our control.
4. Cancellations and Rescheduling
Please provide as much notice as possible if you need to reschedule. Deposits or special-order materials may be non-refundable where applicable (or may include restocking/cancellation fees from suppliers). Cancellations after scheduling or material purchase may result in charges for time, materials, or vendor costs already incurred.
5. Payments
Payment terms (including deposits and final payment) will be stated on your estimate, invoice, or proposal. Past-due balances may result in paused work, withheld scheduling, and/or late fees where permitted by law.
6. Customer Responsibilities
The customer is responsible for confirming property ownership/authority to approve the work and disclosing known issues (leaks, prior damage, mold, pests, structural concerns, etc.).
Please remove or secure valuables and fragile items near the work area.
If a job requires specialty trades, engineering, or licensed work beyond our scope, we may recommend a licensed professional or revise the scope accordingly.
7. Site Conditions and Unforeseen Issues
Many repairs reveal hidden conditions (water damage, rot, outdated wiring, non-code work, pests, etc.). If unforeseen issues are discovered, we will notify you and may pause work until a revised scope/price is approved.
8. Permits, HOA, and Compliance
Unless explicitly stated in writing, the customer is responsible for obtaining any required permits and HOA approvals. We perform work in a workmanlike manner; code and permitting requirements can vary by area and may affect scope and price.
9. Materials
Unless otherwise stated, materials may be supplied by us or the customer depending on the job. Customer-supplied materials must be on site and ready before the scheduled start time. We are not responsible for delays or performance issues related to customer-supplied materials.
10. Warranty and Maintenance
Any workmanship warranty (if offered) will be described in your proposal or invoice. Manufacturer warranties apply to manufacturer-supplied products. Normal wear and tear, lack of maintenance, misuse, or pre-existing conditions are not covered.
11. Photos and Marketing
We may take photos/videos before, during, and after work for documentation and quality control. Unless you request otherwise in writing, you grant permission for us to use non-sensitive project images for marketing purposes (no personal identifying info).
