The Company will perform services as described in the written Estimate, Proposal, or Work Order (collectively, “Service Contract”).

Any changes to the Scope of Work must be agreed to in writing by both parties.
6. Estimates and Acceptance

- Mark underground utilities, sprinkler lines, invisible fences, and other hazards
- Secure pets during scheduled service times
The Company is not responsible for damage to unmarked underground utilities or hidden structures.
8. Deposits and Payment Terms
- Deposit Requirement: A refundable 50% deposit of the total contract price is required before any work begins (“Deposit”).
- The Deposit will be applied toward the total project cost. The remainder will be due upon completion of the work, unless a different payment schedule is agreed to in writing.
- If project prices change due to unforeseen conditions, supply cost increases, or Client-requested changes, the Client agrees to pay any adjusted amounts.
- We accept payment via [list accepted methods: e.g., check, ACH, credit card].
- Final payment is due within 5 days of invoice. Late payments may accrue interest at 10% per month or the maximum rate permitted by Missouri law.
9. Scheduling and Performance
- Project start dates are approximate and may change due to weather, supply delays, or operational constraints.
- The Company will notify the Client of any expected changes in schedule.
10. Permits and Regulations
The Client is responsible for obtaining any required permits, easements, or approvals from local authorities unless otherwise agreed in writing. The Company may assist with permit applications for an additional fee.
For certain services involving environmental or regulated activities, you may need to obtain local permits, though Missouri state law generally defines “landscaping” broadly and does not in itself require a state landscaping license.
11. Liability Disclaimer
- The Company will perform services in a professional and workmanlike manner.
- We are not liable for pre-existing property damage, plant disease, pest infestations, or conditions beyond our control.
- To the fullest extent permitted under Missouri law, liability is limited to the amount paid for the specific service giving rise to the claim.
12. Warranties and Limitations
- The Company warrants workmanship will be performed in a professional manner in accordance with industry standards.
- Except where prohibited by law, the Company disclaims all other warranties – express, implied, or statutory – including warranties of merchantability and fitness.
- Any manufacturer warranties on materials are limited to the terms provided by the material supplier.
- Plant material warranties, if offered, must be in writing.
- Warranty coverage does not apply to neglect, improper watering, extreme weather, animal damage, or failure to follow maintenance instructions.
13. Change Orders
Any changes to the Scope of Work requested by the Client must be documented in a written Change Order that includes any additional costs and time adjustments. Work will not proceed on changes until the Change Order is approved in writing and any additional deposit is received.
14. Cancellation and Refunds
- Before work begins, the Client may cancel the Service Contract with the Deposit being generally refundable.
- After work has begun, cancellation may result in additional charges for materials and labor to cover costs incurred.
15. Liability and Indemnification
- To the extent permitted by Missouri law, the Company’s total aggregate liability for any claim arising under this Agreement shall not exceed the contract price paid by the Client for the affected services.
- The Client agrees to indemnify and hold the Company harmless from claims, damages, losses, and expenses arising from the Client’s negligence or failure to fulfill obligations under this Agreement.
16. Governing Law and Venue
This Agreement and any Service Contract are governed by the laws of the State of Missouri. Any dispute arising hereunder shall be resolved in the appropriate Missouri state court in the county where services were provided.
17. Insurance and Risk of Loss
The Company maintains general liability insurance. The Client is responsible for maintaining appropriate property insurance. Risk of loss for materials delivered to the site but not yet installed remains with the Client once delivered.
18. Mechanics’ Liens
Under Missouri law, certain service providers may be entitled to file a mechanics’ lien against the property for unpaid work or materials supplied. Timely payment is critical to avoid lien rights. For residential properties of four units or less, only parties with a direct contract may file liens without additional owner consent.
19. Dispute Resolution
In the event of a dispute, the parties agree to attempt mediation before pursuing litigation. This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Missouri.
20. Entire Agreement
This Agreement, including the attached Estimate/Proposal and any Change Orders, constitutes the entire agreement between the parties and supersedes all prior discussions or agreements.
21. Severability
If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be severed, and the remainder of the Agreement will continue in full force and effect.
