Weatherlock Roof Systems LLC – Terms & Conditions

This Agreement is between Weatherlock Roof Systems LLC (hereafter referred to as “Contractor”) and the undersigned Owner/Agent. By signing, Owner/Agent agrees to the following terms and conditions:

1. Scope of Work

   Contractor’s services are limited to those explicitly stated in the written estimate or proposal. This agreement does not include services not listed therein. Contractor’s ability to perform is limited by existing site conditions and characteristics. Contractor disclaims any liability for pre-existing, hidden, or unknown conditions, whether visible or concealed. The Owner/Agent retains responsibility for correcting such conditions and will bear all related costs. If any third party performs work during the Contractor’s project, the Contractor may stop work and shall be paid in full for the percentage of work completed. Work will resume once the condition is resolved and all parties approve continuation.

2. Contract Validity & Approval

   This agreement is subject to Contractor’s internal approval. No contract is binding unless signed by an authorized representative of Weatherlock Roof Systems and approved by management and the credit department.

3. Cancellation Policy

   Owner/Agent has the right to cancel this contract by certified mail before midnight of the third business day after signing. Cancellations made after this period shall incur a cancellation fee of 20% of the total contract amount or $3,000—whichever is greater—plus 100% of all completed work to date. This fee covers time, travel, inspection, scheduling, and administrative costs. This amount is a good faith estimate, not a penalty.

4. Mold, Fungus & Indoor Air Quality Disclaimer

   Mold and fungal spores are commonly present in structures. Contractor is not responsible for the presence, cause, or remediation of any mold or indoor air quality conditions, whether existing or future. Owner/Agent agrees to hold harmless and indemnify Contractor from all claims related to mold, mildew, air quality, or associated damages—including property damage, health issues, or loss of use.

5. Hidden Conditions

   If concealed or unknown conditions are discovered that differ materially from those expected or customary, the discovering party must notify the other party within 7 days of first observance. Contractor will evaluate the condition and may renegotiate cost, scope, or time to completion accordingly.

6. Access Openings & Color Matching

   Contractor may create necessary access openings to complete the work. Openings will be sealed, but exact matches in color, texture, or finish cannot be guaranteed. Contractor is not responsible for pre-existing ventilation designs. All venting and soffit work will comply with Florida Building Code, unless otherwise noted in writing.

7. Oil Canning Notice (Metal Roofing Only)

   Oil canning is a visible waviness in flat metal surfaces caused by stress during fabrication or installation. This is a common and cosmetic characteristic, not a defect, and does not affect performance or warranty. By signing this agreement, Owner/Agent acknowledges and accepts the possibility of oil canning on metal roofing surfaces. Contractor shall not be held liable for aesthetic dissatisfaction due to oil canning.

8. Water Intrusion During Construction

   During roofing or remodeling projects, temporary water intrusion may occur due to weather or exposed roofing surfaces. Contractor shall not be liable for water intrusion or any resulting damage during or after construction caused by weather or acts of God. Owner/Agent agrees to file a claim through their own property insurance for any such damage and hereby waives subrogation rights against Contractor. This requirement is binding and enforceable.

9. Limitations of Liability

   Contractor is not liable for indirect, special, incidental, punitive, or consequential damages including but not limited to:

   1. Settling, vibration, or movement of structures;
   2. Water intrusion due to weather or latent structural defects;
   3. Acts of God, strikes, or accidents;
   4. Delays beyond Contractor’s control;
   5. Damage to building interiors, contents, or surrounding property.
10. Property Access

    Unless stated otherwise, this contract assumes unobstructed access to the roof eaves for vehicles and equipment. Owner/Agent accepts full responsibility for any damage to driveways, sidewalks, landscaping, or lawns from vehicles or equipment, even when protective measures are taken.

11. Skylights

    If skylights are present and not included in the scope of work, Contractor is not responsible for existing or future leaks or performance issues, even if skylights must be temporarily removed and reinstalled. Contractor recommends full skylight replacement to avoid future problems.

12. Contingency Items

    This estimate does not account for all possible conditions. Owner/Agent agrees to pay for additional work required to address unforeseen or concealed issues (“Contingency Items”) at a reasonable rate. Reasonable rate is defined as cost of materials and labor plus a 30% margin.

13. Force Majeure

    Contractor shall not be liable for any delay, cost, or damages resulting from causes beyond its control including natural disasters, labor shortages, material delays, governmental actions, or other unforeseen events.

14. Owner Cooperation / Insurance Claims

    Owner/Agent agrees to cooperate with Contractor in matters of permitting, inspections, and insurance communications. If insurance proceeds are involved, Owner/Agent agrees not to withhold funds or delay work. If appraisals or supplements are requested, Owner/Agent must notify Contractor within 10 days of carrier determination. Failure to cooperate may delay the project or incur additional costs.

15. Warranty

    Contractor provides a 1-year limited workmanship warranty unless otherwise specified in writing. Manufacturer warranties on materials are subject to manufacturer terms. Contractor reserves the right to determine whether an issue is covered under workmanship warranty.

16. Payment Terms / Interest / Legal Fees

    All balances are due per the payment schedule. Unpaid balances will incur interest at 1.5% per month (18% APR). Owner/Agent agrees to pay all reasonable collection costs, attorney fees, and court costs related to nonpayment or enforcement of this agreement.

17. Entire Agreement

    This document, along with the written proposal, constitutes the entire agreement between the parties. No verbal agreement, promise, or representation shall be binding unless written and signed by both parties.

18. Arbitration Clause

    In the event of a dispute, Contractor may elect to resolve claims through binding arbitration under the rules of the American Arbitration Association. Arbitration shall take place in Duval County, Florida. This clause shall not restrict Contractor’s ability to pursue collection through court or lien enforcement if necessary.

19. Electronic Signature

    Digital or electronic signatures shall be considered legally binding and enforceable.
