Terms and Conditions
MARTIN BRADLEY PLUMBING, INC.
Terms and Conditions of Service
These Terms and Conditions govern all plumbing, repair, maintenance, and installation services
provided by Martin Bradley Plumbing, Inc. (hereafter referred to as "the Company," "we," "us," or "our")
to the customer (hereafter referred to as "the Customer," "you," or "your"). By authorizing us to
commence work, you agree to be bound by the following terms:
1. Scope of Work and Authorizations
Work Order Approval: We will perform the services outlined in your specific estimate, invoice, or
work order. Any changes, deviations, or additional repairs discovered during the job will require a
verbal or written change order before proceeding.
Access to Property: The Customer must provide safe, continuous, and clear access to the work
site, including proper clearance around water heaters, crawlspaces, main shut-off valves, and curb
boxes.
Permits and Fees: Unless explicitly specified otherwise in writing, the Company will secure
required local and North Carolina state plumbing permits, the costs of which will be billed to the
Customer.
2. Pricing, Invoicing, and Payment Terms
Payment Due Date: All residential invoices are due immediately upon completion of services
unless prior written commercial credit terms have been established.
Late Fees: Invoices unpaid after 30 days are subject to a late payment charge of 1.5% per month
(18% per annum) on the outstanding balance, plus all costs of collection, including reasonable
attorney fees.
Diagnostic Fees: If a technician diagnoses an issue but you choose not to proceed with the repair,
a standard diagnostic or service call fee remains due and payable.
3. Warranties and Limitations of Liability
Workmanship Warranty: We provide a 1-year warranty on workmanship for all new installations
and major repairs from the date of completion.
Fixtures and Materials: Materials, fixtures, and appliances supplied by the Company (such as
water heaters, faucets, or pumps) are covered exclusively by the original manufacturer’s warranty.
Customer-Supplied Materials: The Company provides no warranty whatsoever on fixtures,
pipes, or equipment provided by the Customer. If a customer-supplied part fails or is defective, the
Customer is still responsible for all labor charges incurred.
Drain Cleaning Exclusion: Due to the unpredictable nature of old piping, tree root intrusion, and
underlying structural collapses, drain cleaning, unstopping, and hydro-jetting services are warranted
for 30 days only, provided no foreign objects or misuse caused the re-blockage.
4. Existing Conditions and Pre-existing Damages
Hidden Conditions: The Company is not responsible for damages or delays arising from hidden,
concealed, or unforeseen conditions within walls, floors, slabs, or underground (e.g., rusted or
degraded galvanized/cast-iron pipes, unmapped utilities, or structural rot).
Restoration and Finishing: Unless expressly included in the written estimate, our scope of work
excludes drywall patching, painting, tiling, landscaping, or concrete finishing required to access or
seal plumbing lines.
5. North Carolina Governing Law
This Agreement, and all claims or disputes arising out of our services, shall be governed by,
construed, and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of North Carolina, without
regard to its conflict of law principles. Any legal actions must be filed in the appropriate court system
matching our primary county of operation.
