Free Steamfitter
Service Agreement
One hairline fracture in a high-pressure line will drain your bank account faster than the pipe leaks steam. Without a rock-solid contract, you’re footing the bill for every flooded mechanical room while the client hides behind their lawyers.
Pro Contractor Tip
Always include a 'Change Order' clause requiring written signatures before any extra pipe is cut to ensure you aren't doing free labor for a GC’s 'quick favors'.
Why use a written agreement?
Handshake deals are risky. As a Steamfitter, "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 keeps adding 'small' tasks that aren't in the plan?
Stop the torch and point to your 'Scope of Work' section; a written agreement acts as your shield, turning 'small favors' into billable change orders that keep your profit margin intact.
How do I handle it if the site isn't ready for my crew on the scheduled start day?
You bill a mobilization or standby fee as defined in your contract; if you're burning daylight because their site is a mess, the agreement ensures they're the ones paying for that idle time.
The GC is holding my final check because of another trade's mistake. How do I get my money?
Your contract should include a 'Pay-When-Paid' or 'Prompt Payment' clause that ties your check to your specific milestones, ensuring you aren't penalized for someone else’s screw-up.
