Work Authorization

The customer's written go-ahead for work at their property: the scope, the price, access, and how changes will be handled.

Where this comes from

Not a sample we wrote for this page. This is the document the product puts in your account, as a draft, the moment you say what you do.

Name your trade during setuphome services and contractingand this is waiting for you, already written, in your words, with the blanks marked and the points a lawyer settles flagged for one. Edit it, or paste in what you already use. It is a starting point and not legal advice: the wording is yours to change and your attorney's to check.

How this works for home services and contracting

What it asks you to fill in

Read off the document itself, so this list cannot drift away from what the document actually asks for.

business name · guest name · job address · date · scope · price · payment terms · deposit · start date · duration · working hours · warranty period

12 blanks. They are filled once per send, from what you already know or from your own system through the API. They go into the document; they do not change its wording, and what somebody signed is the version they were shown.

What a lawyer has to settle

These are the notes already written into the document, not our opinion about the law where you operate. The product refuses to send a document with one still in it, which is the point of them.

check the home-improvement contract requirements where you operate — many states require specific notices, a cancellation right, and licence numbers on the document.

SignSealer does not give legal advice and this document is not legal advice. What it does is put the questions in front of you before somebody signs, rather than after.

The document

The real text, with the blanks shown as blanks and the notes above lifted out so they are read rather than skimmed past.

Work Authorization

3. Schedule. Work starts on or about start date and is expected to take duration. Weather, supply and concealed conditions can move this, and business name will say so as soon as it knows.

4. Access and site. The customer gives access during working hours, moves or protects belongings in the work area, and tells business name of any known hazard.

5. Permits and code. business name obtains the permits its trade requires and works to the code that applies. Inspections are the customer's to allow and business name's to arrange.

6. Warranty. business name warrants its workmanship for warranty period from completion. Materials carry their manufacturer's warranty.

7. Cancellation. Either party may cancel before work starts on written notice; the customer pays for materials already ordered for the job.

By signing the customer authorises the work described and confirms that they have read this and meant to sign it.
