2. Service Contractual Agreement
All home renovation services are governed by formal written contracts or agreements delineating project scope, detailed specifications, established timelines, payment schedules, warranty provisions, and mutual responsibilities of both contracting parties. No verbal representations or modifications constitute binding obligations unless formally documented and signed by authorized representatives.

4. Project Modification Protocol
Change requests must be submitted in writing and receive formal approval from both parties prior to implementation. Approved modifications may affect project duration, total investment, and resource allocation accordingly. Change orders document modifications comprehensively, associated cost implications, timeline adjustments, and require client signature authorization before proceeding.
5. Cancellation & Refund Framework
Cancellations must be submitted in writing. Refund eligibility depends upon cancellation timing and work progression:

6. Warranty Provisions
All completed work carries warranty coverage as specified within project contracts and accompanying warranty documentation. Standard warranties address defects in workmanship and materials under normal usage conditions. Warranties exclude damage resulting from misuse, neglect, unauthorized alterations, ordinary wear and tear, or force majeure events. Claims must be reported promptly and will be addressed according to established procedures.
