Contractor Agreements
Independent Contractor
STOP. That guy you hired to cut your lawn, cut down that tree.
Never let anyone work on your house without an express contract -- Unless you're willing to pay an injured worker's compensation for an extensive period if/when they get injured. Be sure to get a clear understanding, signed contract, insurance, no fixed hours, and assurances. This is a modifiable form that could save you thousands of dollars when that tree cutter, handyman, roofer, lawn cutter, electrician, etc. performs work on your house. Use a written contract or be prepared to get sued and defend a lawsuit to determine whether that worker was an "independent contractor" or your "employee" and pay $$$$ (even if it's just to defend it) if/when that worker gets hurt. Smart people get these things in writing first.
Basic Home Renovation Contract
Property Improvement Contractors perform Kitchen, Bathroom, Basement remodeling and improvement. A writing should be used after a deal between a property owner and a contractor detailing the exact work and exact materials to be performed, purchased, and the contractor paid with "lien waivers" provided by the contractor after the work is performed and the contractor is fully paid. A license is usually required in most states to perform certain types of work, including HVAC, plumbing and electrical and most work that requires a permit by local ordinances. Contractors should be careful to properly estimate all jobs, carefully lay out and enforce payment terms, be familiar with applicable lien practice, and provide lien waivers from all subcontractors when the job is done. This basic contract is fully modifiable for the terms of any construction/property improvement contract.
