Florida Contract Roof Never Start Work
I signed a contract on october 9th to get my roof done.
Florida contract roof never start work. No dates given yet. Don t settle for verbal promises when negotiating the terms of the agreement with your roofer. I did not have checks at that. The contract does not specifically detail the cost or price for replacing the rotten wood.
I want to cancel my contract with a roofing contractor after 3 days. It depends on the contract and if you re not sure you should see a florida contract lawyer. Not work started yet. Some contracts allow you to cancel up until materials are purchased and work starts.
Understand how much a public insurance adjuster charges as well as what services are included before signing any contract. You might need to talk to an attorney about this particularly if the roofer objects but if that is the whole contract then it is missing required elements of a contract like price job address scope of work schedule signatures or the parties date etc. Often these contracts include a notice of cancellation that lets you halt everything within a 3 day period. Although it seems self evident that participants to a construction project would not want to commence work without first obtaining signatures on a written contract it happens all too.
Under florida law a roofer must have a license to perform work in florida. If you suspect fraud or suspicious activity report it immediately by calling 1 877 693. The 11 clauses your roofing contract should include. Roofing contractors must hold one of two distinct types of licenses.
Roofers or roofing contractors are classified as division ii contractors under section 489 105 3 florida statutes. Get those items in writing to make sure that both of you understand each other s expectations and what you re getting back for your money. However the homeowner may believe that the contract included all roofing work to be performed on the project. Of course you could also sue for breach of contract especially if there was a stipulated date but generally a court would hold that a roofing job for a house not started in 6 months would be a breach of contract anyway but suing costs money and you very rarely in this wacko court system we have can recover the legal espenses you incur in getting the party breaching a contract or for most any other suit for that matter.
