Terms and Conditions

By entering into a contract with Terrassement Sicurella et Fils Inc. (“we,” “us,” or “our”), the Client (“Client”) acknowledges and agrees to abide by these Terms and conditions (“Terms”).

Liability Insurance and Property Boundaries

The Client acknowledges that they are responsible for maintaining liability insurance and ensuring that the property boundaries are correctly identified to avoid encroachment onto the property of a third party. The Client is also responsible for obtaining permits from their municipality for any necessary work. Permit fees for the occupation of public domain will be invoiced separately and will be sent following the completion of the work.

Agreement and Payment Terms

All details of the project have been explained and accepted by the Client before signing the contract. Full payment is required upon completion of the work. Any unpaid amount will automatically generate interest of late payment equivalent to 10% of the total amount as collection costs.

Guarantee and Maintenance Procedures

Each project carried out by our team has a guarantee. However, the guarantee will only apply once all payments have been made and the required maintenance procedures, as outlined in the owner’s guide, directives, and/or maintenance procedures, have been followed. The warranty does not cover oxidation stains, cracks caused by tree roots, drying of the soil, or damage caused by harsh freezing/thawing winters.

Unforeseen Circumstances

If, during the excavation process, unusual products such as oversized rock, large quantities of concrete, or more than one layer of asphalt are encountered, the additional time required for machinery will be at the customer’s expense.

Limitations of Guarantee

No guarantee is provided on polymer sand, grass, or planting unless indicated otherwise and provided that all maintenance procedures and winterization have been respected.

Photography Consent

The Client accepts that the project site may be photographed before, during, and after the work for the purpose of using Sicurella et fils Inc. photographs for promotional and documentation purposes.

Contract Cancellation due to Disrespectful Behavior

We expect all Clients to maintain a respectful and professional demeanour when interacting with our personnel, including employees, contractors, and representatives. Respectful conduct entails refraining from any form of verbal, written, or physical abuse, threats, harassment, discrimination, or any other behaviour that may cause harm, distress, or discomfort to our personnel. In the event that the Client engages in disrespectful behaviour towards our personnel, despite receiving a warning, we reserve the right to cancel the contract with immediate effect. Upon contract cancellation, the Client will be responsible for any outstanding fees or costs incurred up until the date of termination.

Severability

If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable or invalid, the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect. The unenforceable or invalid provision shall be interpreted to the maximum extent possible to achieve the intent of the original provision.

Governing Law and Jurisdiction

These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the law. Any disputes arising out of or in connection with these Terms shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts.

The team of Terrassement Sicurella et Fils Inc. thank you for placing your trust in us for the realization of your project.
