Free Demolition Contractor Service Agreement

One nicked gas line or a surprise load of asbestos will gut your profit margin before the dust even settles. Without a solid contract, you're just a guy with a sledgehammer waiting for a lawsuit to bury your business.

Pro Contractor Tip

Always include an 'Unforeseen Conditions' clause to ensure you get paid extra when you find hidden structural issues or hazardous waste that wasn't on the blueprints.

Why use a written agreement?

Handshake deals are risky. As a Demolition Contractor, "scope creep" is your biggest enemy. A clear agreement ensures everyone agrees on the deliverables before money changes hands.

Frequently Asked Questions

What do I do when the client asks to 'add one more small room' once the machines are already on-site?

You point to the scope of work in your contract and tell them that's a change order; if it isn't in writing, the engine doesn't start until the new price is signed and paid for.

How do I avoid getting stuck with the bill for contaminated debris the owner 'didn't know' about?

Use your contract to define exactly what materials you are hauling; anything outside that list is a breach of scope that requires a separate disposal fee before you touch it.

How do I make sure I’m not chasing my final payment for six months after the site is clear?

Hardwire a milestone payment schedule into the agreement so you're collecting 90% of the total before the last truck leaves the lot, leaving only a tiny retention fee for the final walk-through.
