“Improvement(s)” means the improvements referred to in the Quotation, which we have agreed to supply and install at your Property.
“Property” means the property where the Improvement(s) will be installed, the address of which is set out in the Quotation.
“Quotation” means the quotation for the Improvement(s) provided by us.
“us”, "our" or “we” means YES Energy Solutions.
“you”, "your" means the customer referred to in the Quotation.
2. Your responsibilities to get permissions and consents
You must obtain all necessary permissions and consents in relation to the Improvements (including but not limited to mortgage company, insurer, local planning authority, conservation area and/or listed building consent) and where appropriate ensure we are in receipt of a copy.
3. Appointments and preparing for the installation
Appointments and start dates are scheduled and given in good faith. We will endeavour to keep them, but cannot guarantee to do so. Where you are required to make preparatory arrangements before installation, these need to be done before our planned start date. You must notify us at least 24 hours before our planned start date if you are not fully prepared for us to start work. If you do not we may charge you for any costs we incur.
4. Installation of the Improvement(s)
4.1 You must give us (and our sub-contractors) access to the relevant area(s) of your Property so that we can install your Improvement(s). You must ensure that there is an adequate supply of water and electricity (and gas if this is normally supplied) to your Property and allow us to use reasonable amounts of these free of charge so that we can install your Improvement(s).
4.2 You will ensure that the Property is clean and safe for our workers.
4.3 We are not responsible for any existing faults or defects relating to the structure, plumbing, electrics, heating or any other part of the Property or for any redecorating which is necessary as a result of our work.
4.4 If we find faults, defects or other problems which mean that we will need to do additional work we will provide you with a cost estimate for that additional work. You may choose whether or not to accept our estimate. If you decide not to accept our estimate then either of us may cancel this Agreement by sending the other party written notice. If this Agreement is cancelled for this reason we may charge you for all work we completed before this Agreement was cancelled.
4.5 If we are not able to start or complete the installation of any of your improvement(s) because of things beyond our control (for example, poor weather conditions), this is not something you could hold us responsible for, but the contract would remain valid for any improvement(s) already installed.
4.6 We may use sub-contractors to install Improvement(s).
4.7 Once you have checked that your Improvement(s) have been installed satisfactorily you must sign a certificate of completion that we will give to you, to confirm the Improvement(s) have been completed satisfactorily.
5. Guarantee
We will provide you with a guarantee on completion. This will set out your rights against us in relation to any defects in the design, workmanship and materials in our work after they are complete.
6. Paying for your Improvement(s)
6.1 The total price you must pay us for the supply and installation of your Improvement(s) is set out in the Quotation. We normally require you to pay part of the price as a deposit on acceptance of the quotation. Payment in full will become due on completion and you must pay us immediately. We reserve the right to charge interest on late payments. Full title on the installation will only pass to you once your final payment has cleared.
6.2 If you have chosen to finance all or part of the supply and installation of your Improvement(s) by credit, the credit agreement which you have signed will set out how much you will need to repay. If you cancel your credit agreement then you may need to make other arrangements to pay for your Improvement(s). Cancelling your credit agreement may result in the cancellation of this Agreement.
7. Cancellation
7.1 You may cancel this Agreement within 14 days starting on and including the day on which you sign the Acceptance Letter unless we have already started installing the Improvements with your agreement or we have provided you with goods that have been personalised to the Property. If you wish to cancel during this time, you must tell us in writing by sending us a letter or an email. We will refund your deposit within 14 days of receiving your cancellation.
7.2 We will have a right to cancel this Agreement if you breach it or if we become aware that any information provided by you before entering into it is false or incomplete. If we cancel we will send you written notice. If this happens, you will have to pay us an amount to cover the costs we have incurred in meeting our responsibilities under this Agreement until the date of cancellation including for any Improvement(s) installed.
7.3 We may cancel this Agreement for any other reason at anytime before the installation of your Improvement(s) start. If we cancel we will send you written notice. If this happens, we will each be responsible for any costs we have incurred in meeting our responsibilities under this Agreement until the date of cancellation.
7.4 We are obliged to delay or halt any works if there is any evidence of bat roosts at the Property. A full ecological survey would be required before any works can be resumed and you will have to pay for the cost of this survey.
7.5 If we start the installation at your property and then find the structure of your building is not suitable for the works we have agreed to carry out then we will be allowed to cancel this contract.
