    2. Entering into a legally binding contract

      1. a) A contract between You and Us will come into being in one of two ways:

    (i) when You sign the [estimate/quotationlorder form] We and You will enter into a legally binding contract on the date You sign.

    (ii) where You and We agree orally that We should provide the Services then there will be a legally binding contract on the date of our oral agreement

    c)You should keep a copy of these terms and conditions for Your records.


    3. Providing the Services

    a) Once We and You have entered into a legally binding contract We will normally start providing the Services to You at Your requested premises straight away or on a date, or dates and times agreed between Us without further discussion with You. Occasionally the Services will be provided at some other date or time or be dependent on a number of factors.

    b) Our aim is to always provide You with the Services:

    i. Using reasonable care and skill;

    ii. in compliance with commonly accepted practices and standards in the cleaning industry; and

    iii. in compliance with all relevant cleaning industry laws and regulations in force at the time We are carry out the Services.

    c) Unless We agree otherwise We will provide the Services on normal working days and start work no earlier than 8.00am and finish work no later than 5pm. A normal working day for Us means Mondays to Fridays, excluding any bank or other national holidays.

    d) The performance of some of the Services may take place away from the Premises. For example, We may be able only to carry out some of the activities in performing the Services other than at Your Premises or when You are present.

    4. Materials

    a) At the time We perform the Services We may not have all the Materials We need to perform the Services. This may be for a number of reasons such as:

    i. We have not provided an estimate and cannot reasonably establish what Materials are necessary until We start performing the Services; or

    ii. where We have provided an estimate, it may not have been reasonably possible to establish the need for particular Materials at the time We provided the estimate. The need for the particular Materials may only be revealed when We start performing the Services; or

    iii. whether or not We have provided an estimate, the condition of an item or the area which is the subject of the Services may only become apparent when We start performing the Services and it was not reasonably possible to establish it until that point.

    b) In such cases We may need to purchase Materials. If the Materials are available from a local supplier then We normally wish to travel to the supplier and purchase the Materials and return to continue performing the Services. We normally charge for the travel time at our normal charging rate.

    c) If the Materials are not available from a local supplier We normally order the Materials and return on another occasion to continue to perform the Services. We will not charge You for any time spent in obtaining Materials if We have brought or ordered the wrong Materials. In such circumstances We will normally charge for the time spent in making telephone calls to suppliers or our office to locate the required Materials.

    5. Timing

    a) We aim to carry out the Services by the dates and times We either agree with You or notify to You. But We cannot guarantee or provide a firm commitment that:

    i) We will start performing the Services by a specified date or time; or

    ii) We will complete the performance of all the Services by any specified date or time; or

    iii) the performance of any individual part of the Services will be completed by a specified date or time.

    b) If We do not start or complete performing the Services within a reasonable period from the date(s) We have agreed or notified then You may either choose either to continue to wait until We can start performing the Services or complete performing them or You can terminate the contract.

    c) Where We have started performing the Services and You decide You wish to terminate the contract You will only have to pay for any Services We have performed up to the date of termination and for any Materials which We have legal obligation to pay for. If You have made payment(s) to Us in excess of the amount of Services We have performed or Materials We have purchased, We will return the difference to You within [7] days of the termination.

    d) What is a reasonable period of time depends on the type of Services We will be performing and the length of time they will take to perform. For example, if You and We believe that the Services will take only a few hours to perform, then if We fail to start performing the Services within (e.g. half a day) then You may have the right to terminate the contract. But if the Services are due to take several Weeks to perform, then if We fail to start to perform the Services after a couple of Weeks when are due to or We do not perform the Services during a couple of Weeks when We Were due to, then in such circumstances You may be entitled to terminate the contract.

    6. Your obligations

    You will:

    a) Provide free of charge adequate and safe access to Your premises, information and facilities, and to our equipment and materials on Your premises, for Us to carry out our duties and rights under this Agreement, including performing the services.

    a) There are certain situations or events which occur which are not within our reasonable control (some examples are given in the next numbered paragraph). Where one of these occurs We will normally attempt to recommence performing the Services as soon as the situation which has stopped Us performing the Services has been resolved.

    b) The following are examples of events or situations which are not within in our reasonable control:

    ii) where You make a change in the Services You wish Us to perform (and this results in, for example, Us having to do further work or wait for new or different Materials);

        1. i) continuing to wait until We are able to recommence performing the Services.

    ii) allowing You to terminate the contract. If You choose this option then You will only have to pay for any Services We have performed up to the date of termination and for any Materials for which We have a legal obligation to pay.

    11. Payment

      1. a) When requested, You shall pay a deposit equivalent to 30% of the Goods and Services We will provide to You, prior to Us performing our services,

    b) Our charges based on time spent

        1. i) We normally charge for our Services on a time basis. We charge for each [specify period, e.g. 30 minutes] We spend in providing our Services. Our rates, excluding GST, for performing the Services are set out [specify, e.g. at www.xxxx.com.au / on the reverse page / in the “Our Services” leaflet]. [The following is an example of how our charging structure works: If We complete performing the Services within 50 minutes where the charging period is 30 minutes We will charge for 2 x 30 minute periods. If We go over into another 30-minute period by a few minutes, at our discretion, We may charge up to the last period completed.

    c) Our charges based on an estimate

    i) If We provide an estimate then We will charge You the amount stated in the estimate rather then a charge based on the time taken in performing the Services. Note: We only provide estimates and not quotations or binding indications of how much We will charge. Estimates are normally valid for a period of [number] [days] from the date they are given.

    ii) As We provide an estimate We may need to charge You a higher amount than stated in the estimate. This can occur for a number of reasons, in particular where:

          1. (a) what You require Us to do changes, or the amount of work or Services You require Us to provide increases or is different to what We and You agreed before We started performing the Services [and as stated in the estimate]; or

    (b) when We start performing the Services it becomes apparent that the amount of Services We will need to perform or the type of work that is involved is different to what We agreed before We started performing the Services and We could not reasonably foresee this before We started performing the Services.

    iii) Where the amount of work involved is greater than that stated in an estimate (as set out in paragraph (b)) then following will happen:

    (a) if the amount of extra time We need to spend to finish performing the Services will mean that the extra amount payable by You will not exceed [insert]% of the amount stated in the estimate, then We will carry on providing and completing the Services without contacting You and obtaining Your agreement;

    (b) otherwise We will not continue performing the Services and We will seek Your approval to the extra amount that You will need to pay, unless:

    (c) it is not possible to contact You within a reasonable time; or

    (d) it is not safe not to carry out and finish performing the Services (for example, Your goods or premises may be left in a dangerous condition or unprotected from theft if the Services are not completed).

    d) Prices in this Agreement exclude GST unless stated otherwise. You will pay GST and any other government charges, duties or taxes in connection with supply of goods or services under this Agreement.

    12. When payment is required

    a) Payment for our Services and the Materials is normally made in two ways, either:

    i) at the time We finish performing the Services; or

    ii) in a number of staged payments, often involving; or

          1. (a) the payment of a deposit of [insert]% before We commence performing the Services; and

    (b) the payment of the remaining amount We will be charging You either on completion of the Services or in a number of fixed payments paid at regular periods

    (c) Which option We will Use will be indicated on the [estimate / quotation / order form / [specify]

    iii) Within seven days of our request in accordance with clause 8(b).

    b) Time shall be of the essence when making payments.

    c) You agree that We may deliver invoices and notices to You by electronic means, such as email. If You do not Use this method, We may charge You an administration fee for the extra cost of processing. You must notify Us immediately of any error on an invoice. You must pay all charges within 14 days of invoice date, including any disputed amount. After payment, if an adjustment in Your favour is due, We will issue a credit note.

    d) Our preferred method of payment is by direct debit. If You do not Use this method, We may charge You an administration fee for the extra cost of processing. If We incur any merchant or dishonour fees as a result of Your method of payment, You agree that We may recover those fees from You. At Our discretion We may recover those fees from You directly or by adding the amount to a subsequent bill.

    e) If You agree to pay by direct debit, on the 21st day of the month following the month of invoicing We will debit Your nominated account for the full amount due.

    13. Where You seek to not pay amounts due to Us

    a) Interest shall run on the amount of monies outstanding from the date due for payment until the date payment is made at the rate prescribed by the Penalty Interest Rates Act (Vic) plus two percentum.

    b) If the amounts not paid represent more than 25% of the total value of the Services We are to perform for You, and there remain some Services which We have not yet performed, then We may suspend performing the remaining Services until You make payment.

    c) You will not refuse to pay any amount owing to Us where there is only a minor or inconsequential defect or error in the performance of the Services. You will be entitled only to refuse to pay no more than a proportionate amount of any amount due.

    d) You agree that in the event of Default, without prejudice to any other right or remedy the We might have, We are entitled to do any or all of the following:

    i) immediately terminate our engagement under this agreement;

    ii) charge You default interest in accordance with clause 8(a);

    iii) charge You the cost to Us of recovering any overdue amount;

    iv) require immediate payment for all purchases, including services made by You from Us from the Supplier, the payment of which would otherwise not have been due and payable;

    v) disallow any concessions otherwise claimable by You;

    vi) terminate or suspend delivery of any Goods or Services which are the subject of any other sale between You and Us, or between Us and any third party on Your behalf;

    vii) enter any premises where the Goods and/or our equipment may be located to re-take possession of the Goods and/or our equipment (You acknowledge and agrees that You authorises the Us or any of our agents to do so, and that Us or any of its agent will not be liable to You in any way whatsoever for any loss, damage or claim by doing so);

    viii) treat Your default as a repudiation of any existing contract for the purchase of Goods and/or Services and recover any unpaid sum from You by way of liquidated damages.

    e) In the event of You being in default of Your obligation to pay and the overdue account is then referred to a debt collection agency, and/or law firm for collection You shall be liable for the recovery costs incurred and if the agency charges commission on a contingency basis You shall be liable to pay as a liquidated debt, the commission payable by Us to the agency, fixed at the rate charged by the agency from time to time as if the agency has achieved one hundred per cent recovery and the following formula shall apply:

    i) Commission = ((Original Debt)/(100 – Commission % charged by the agency (inc. GST))) x 100

    f) In the event where We, or our agent refers the overdue account to a lawyer You shall also pay as a liquidated debt the charges reasonably made or claimed by the lawyer on the indemnity basis

    14. Charging Clause

    c) Notwithstanding any other term of this Agreement, if at any time Our costs of supplying goods and/or services under this Agreement change due to government action (including imposition of a new tax or charge), a change in law, a change in tax, unforeseen events or circumstances beyond Our control (for example, a significant and unexpected increase in the cost of fuel, power, feedstock or distribution), inaccurate or inadequate provision of information by You, or delay caused by You, We reserve the right to adjust prices to take account of such change in Our costs, including by applying a surcharge.

    15. Exclusion and limitation of liability

    a) We do not exclude or limit liability for our negligence or negligent omission which causes You personal injury or death.

    b) We shall only be liable for any loss or damage suffered by You which is a reasonably foreseeable consequence of a breach by Us of this contract.
