TERMS AND CONDITIONS 

Terms and conditions as stated herein become a part of our quotation and will apply to the acceptance by Woodwork Franzreb LLC (herein known as Woodwork Franzreb) of your order. All terms and conditions expressly specified herein shall render null and void any conflicting terms and conditions in any and all other contracts relative to this proposal. 

1) Quoted prices are valid for 20 days. Project scheduling will begin upon receipt of 50% fabrication deposit. No work will be scheduled prior to receipt of 50% deposit for any reason. Payment schedule is as follows: 

• 50% Fabrication deposit due within 14 days receipt of Invoice

2) Prices include GA sales tax. GA state sales tax is applied to all projects unless other arrangements have been made. 

3) Design deposits or fees will include one 2D black and white line drawing or one 3D color rendering as specified on the proposal. The design deposit or fee will include one review and revise session with one re-submittal of drawings or renderings. Additional changes to the design or concept will be billed at $100 per hour. Design deposits do not include shop drawings unless otherwise stated; shop-drawing costs are included in the fabrication budget. Shop drawings will not be produced until: 1) the design concept rendering has been approved and 2) the 50% fabrication deposit has been received. Design deposits will be applied toward the 50% fabrication deposit. All jobs include a design fee unless detailed drawings and specifications have been supplied prior to price quoting. 

4) Shop drawings will include the following: elevations, cross sections, and plans that will identify all critical dimensions, chosen appliances/electronic components, hardware and special features. If it is not shown or addressed on the drawings or submittals provided, then Woodwork Franzreb LLC has not agreed to supply it. All shop drawings and product samples must be signed, dated and returned before Woodwork Franzreb LLC will proceed with the manufacture of any project. Any detail pertaining to cabinet construction and installation that is not specifically discussed and documented will be performed at the discretion of Woodwork Franzreb LLC. The shop drawings will include one review and revise session with one re-submittal of drawings. Additional changes to the shop drawings will be billed at $100 per hour. 

5) ML Campbell’s finishes are among the most consistent available. Our multiple step technique combined with the careful selection of color matched woods and veneers ensure that the finished project will be as consistent as possible. However, since the properties of wood are not consistent themselves, we cannot ensure that each part of the project will look exactly alike, nor can we guarantee that the project will exactly match the initial sample. Therefore, Woodwork Franzreb LLC does allow for a range of color on its finished products. This acceptable color range may sometimes span several shades above or below the average shade for a stain/species combination. Variations may also occur in hand applied paint finishes such as pickled, ragged, glazed, crackle, etc., these variations are normal. Each project is entitled to one custom-made finish board sample, additional boards will be created on a time plus material basis with a $100 minimum charge. All finish samples must be signed, dated and returned before Woodwork Franzreb LLC will proceed with the finishing stage of any project. 

6) Correction of Work: After the contract is substantially completed, a representative from Woodwork Franzreb LLC and the customer/customer’s representative shall jointly inspect the work and a single list (punch list) shall be prepared identifying all work to be completed or corrected. There shall be only one such written list of work identified to be incomplete or incorrect, and the customer/customer’s representative shall sign the list. Woodwork Franzreb LLC shall then expeditiously complete all work stated on the punch list for which they are responsible in the terms of this Agreement. The customer/customer’s representative shall not contract with any alternative contractor for the performance or completion of work within the scope of the Agreement, nor shall the customer/customer’s representative claim a credit or back charge for the cost of completing an item stated on the written punch list, nor shall the customer/customer’s representative occupy or use the stated work until and unless Woodwork Franzreb LLC is first given reasonable notice and opportunity to correct the work stated on the punch list referred to above. If the customer/customer’s representative does contract with an alternate contractor to perform the punch list work or otherwise completes the project without first affording the above-described opportunity to Woodwork Franzreb LLC, or if the customer/customer’s representative commences to use or occupy the space or work in which Woodwork Franzreb LLC performed work, the customer then agrees to accept all work “as is” and thereby waives any claim against Woodwork Franzreb LLC under the terms of the Agreement, including warranty claims. 

7) Warranty: It will be the responsibility of Woodwork Franzreb LLC to insure that all material, products and taxes relating to the customer’s project are paid and that there will be no potential lien claimants after the customer’s final payment has been made to Woodwork Franzreb LLC.

The Client acknowledges and understands that solid wood is a natural material subject to expansion and contraction due to fluctuations in temperature and humidity. Such movement may result in minor dimensional changes, including but not limited to seam separation, surface checking, cracking, cupping, or warping. These occurrences are inherent to the nature of solid wood and shall not be deemed defects in material or workmanship.

Proper maintenance-including but not limited to maintaining stable indoor humidity, protecting from direct moisture or heat exposure, and applying appropriate finishes or sealants-is required to minimize wood movement and preserve the integrity of the product.

Woodwork Franzreb LLC shall not be held liable for any swelling, shrinking, cracking, warping, seam separation, or other movement of solid wood components resulting from environmental conditions, improper maintenance, neglect, misuse, or failure to follow care and maintenance recommendations.

12) Travel & Expenses (If Applicable):
In the event that the project location requires travel beyond Woodwork Franzreb LLC’s standard service area, the Customer agrees to reimburse Woodwork Franzreb LLC for all reasonable travel-related expenses incurred in connection with the performance of the work.

• Mileage will be billed at the current IRS standard mileage rate in effect at the time of travel.
• Tolls and parking will be billed based on actual cost as shown on receipts, when available.
• Lodging will be billed based on actual cost as shown on receipts.
  Meals and incidental expenses will be billed at a per diem rate of $50 per day.

All travel-related expenses will be invoiced separately and will reflect actual documented costs or agreed per diem rates.

The Customer acknowledges that these costs are variable and agrees to pay the invoiced amount based on actual receipts and the agreed per diem.
