1. Services

Modern Home Builds provides residential construction and improvement services which may include fencing, exterior upgrades, remodeling, and related project work. Specific deliverables, scope, pricing, and timelines will be documented in an estimate, proposal, statement of work, or invoice provided to you.

2. Estimates, Pricing, and Scope

• Estimates: Estimates are based on information available at the time and may be revised if scope, materials, measurements, or site conditions change.
• Scope changes: Any additions or modifications may require a change order and may affect timeline and cost.
• Material availability: Pricing and lead times can be impacted by supplier availability and seasonal demand.

3. Scheduling, Access, and Site Conditions

• You agree to provide reasonable access to the property during scheduled work times.
• Underground utilities must be marked prior to digging. We coordinate utility locate when applicable, but timelines may depend on third parties.

Payment terms may vary by project and will be stated on your estimate, invoice, or written agreement. Common terms may include:

Late payments may result in delayed scheduling or paused work until the account is brought current.

5. Cancellations and Rescheduling
