Terms of Service
Effective Date: Aug 22, 2026
Welcome to J & M Handyman Pros. These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern the use of our website, quote and estimate requests, services, projects, and related transactions. By requesting a quote, accepting a quote, scheduling services, or engaging J & M Handyman Pros to perform work, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to these Terms.
1. Company and Services
J & M Handyman Pros provides home repair, maintenance, and improvement services within the State of Utah.
Our services are provided based on the specific scope of work agreed upon with the customer. Not every service is available for every property or project, and J & M Handyman Pros reserves the right to decline work that falls outside our capabilities, licensing, insurance, or applicable legal requirements.
2. Free Quotes and Estimates
J & M Handyman Pros provides free, no-obligation quotes unless otherwise specifically stated in writing.
Quotes are prepared based on the information, measurements, photographs, descriptions, site conditions, and other information available and visible at the time of the estimate.
A quote is an estimate of the anticipated cost of the specific work described and is not a guarantee that unforeseen conditions will not affect the final cost.
Quote Revisions
J & M Handyman Pros understands that reasonable questions, clarifications, and minor changes to a quote may be necessary.
However, substantial, repeated, or excessive requests for revisions, additional estimates, changes in scope, or re-pricing may require additional estimating time and may be subject to a fee.
If a fee will apply, J & M Handyman Pros will notify the customer of the applicable charge and obtain approval before performing the additional estimating or quote preparation work.
A quote fee, when applicable, is separate from the cost of the proposed project and does not guarantee that the customer will proceed with the project.
3. Quotes, Changes, and Unforeseen Conditions
Quotes are based on conditions that are reasonably visible and accessible during the estimating process.
Once work begins, unforeseen issues or complications may arise that could significantly affect the time required or overall cost of the project.
If such conditions are discovered, J & M Handyman Pros will notify the customer and provide an updated cost estimate before proceeding with additional work whenever reasonably possible.
Any changes, additions, or requests for services not included in the original quote may result in additional charges. Changes will be discussed with the customer and approved before additional work is performed whenever reasonably possible.
4. Hidden or Concealed Conditions
J & M Handyman Pros is not responsible for conditions that are concealed, inaccessible, or not reasonably visible during the estimating process.
These conditions may include, but are not limited to:
-
Structural damage
-
Water damage
-
Rot
-
Mold
-
Hidden plumbing issues
-
Hidden electrical issues
-
Code deficiencies
-
Unsafe conditions
-
Other unforeseen conditions discovered after work has begun
Additional work required because of concealed or unforeseen conditions may require an updated estimate, written approval, or change order before proceeding.
5. Scope of Work
Each project will be performed according to the scope of work described in the accepted quote, written agreement, or change order.
Additional work requested by the customer or required because of unforeseen conditions may affect the project schedule and total cost.
J & M Handyman Pros will communicate material changes to the customer and obtain approval before performing additional work whenever reasonably possible.
6. Customer Responsibilities

-
Providing accurate information about the property and requested work.

Obtaining permits or approvals when the customer has agreed to be responsible for them.
Delays or additional costs resulting from the customer's failure to provide access, accurate information, or necessary approvals may be charged to the customer when applicable.
7. Pricing and Quote Expiration
Unless otherwise stated in writing, quotes are valid for 10 calendar days from the date of issuance.
Prices are based on the scope of work, materials, labor, and conditions known at the time the quote is prepared.
Material costs, availability, supplier pricing, or project conditions may change after a quote expires.
8. Payment Terms
Unless otherwise specified in writing:
-
A 50% deposit is required to secure the project.

The remaining balance is due within 30 days of project completion.

9. Past-Due Accounts and Collections
Invoices that remain unpaid for more than six (6) months past the due date may be referred to a third-party collection agency or licensed attorney for collection.
To the extent permitted by applicable law, the customer agrees to be responsible for reasonable collection costs, applicable collection agency fees, court costs, and reasonable attorney's fees.
Any collection fee charged by a third-party collection agency will be subject to applicable law.
10. Cancellation and Customer No-Shows

This fee applies to all scheduled appointments, including free estimates and quotes.
J & M Handyman Pros will determine, at its reasonable discretion, whether the circumstances of a missed, canceled, or otherwise uncompleted appointment warrant application of the cancellation/no-show fee.
J & M Handyman Pros may waive the fee at its discretion when circumstances warrant.

If no written dispute is received within that time frame, the invoice will be considered accepted.

Nothing in this section is intended to waive or limit any right or remedy that cannot lawfully be waived or limited.
18. Dispute Resolution and Governing Law
The parties agree to make a good-faith effort to resolve disputes through direct discussion and mediation before pursuing arbitration.
If mediation is unsuccessful, disputes shall be resolved through binding arbitration in Utah, in accordance with applicable Utah law and the Utah Uniform Arbitration Act, to the extent applicable.
These Terms and any applicable project agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Utah, without regard to conflict-of-law principles.

However, a specific written quote, project agreement, change order, or other written agreement accepted by both parties may contain additional or different terms that apply specifically to that project.
If a conflict exists between these Terms of Service and a signed or accepted project-specific agreement, the project-specific agreement will control to the extent of the conflict.
20. Website Use
Information provided on this website is intended for general informational purposes and does not constitute a guarantee that a particular service is appropriate for a particular property or situation.

21. Changes to These Terms
J & M Handyman Pros reserves the right to update these Terms of Service from time to time.
The version of the Terms applicable to a particular project will generally be the version incorporated into or referenced by the applicable accepted quote, agreement, or transaction.
