Last Updated: August 4, 2026
Welcome to the Terms of Service for Bobby Built Developments Inc., a professional roofing and renovation contractor serving the Greater Moncton Area. By accepting a quote, signing an estimate, or submitting a deposit, the Client agrees to all terms and conditions outlined in this Agreement.
1. Definitions
- Client: The person, homeowner, or authorized representative engaging the Contractor.
- Contractor: Bobby Built Developments Inc.
- Project: The roofing, renovation, or construction work described in the approved estimate or quote.
- Site / Worksite: The physical location where the Project is performed.
- Work / Services: All labor, construction tasks, and related services performed by the Contractor.
- Materials: All products required for the Project.
- Completion: When the primary scope of work outlined in the estimate is finished.
- Permit(s): Any municipal or provincial approvals required for the Project.
- Force Majeure: Events beyond the reasonable control of either party (as defined in Section 4).
2. Scope of Work
The Contractor will provide all labor, tools, equipment, and materials necessary to complete the Project unless otherwise stated. The Contractor:
- Maintains full control over staffing levels and work methods.
- Adheres to industry-standard construction practices.
- Reserves the right to bill all mandatory change orders separately.
- Shall charge additional fees for permits unless explicitly included in the written quote.
Renovation Work Billing Policy:
All renovation work is billed based on actual hours worked and materials utilized. Billing is transparent; the Client is only invoiced for the time and materials required for the Project. For example, if an estimate projects 100 hours but completion requires 75, the Client is billed for 75 hours. Similarly, material costs are adjusted to reflect actual consumption.
For larger projects, progress invoices will be issued periodically to ensure clear communication and maintain project momentum.
3. Permits and Compliance
Unless otherwise specified in writing:
- The Client is responsible for securing all required permits, including zoning, building, and inspection permits, unless previously agreed upon.
- If the Contractor obtains permits at the Client’s request, all associated costs, delays, or penalties remain the Client’s sole responsibility.
4. Scheduling, Delays, and Force Majeure
- Scheduling & Expected Delays: Project timelines are estimates and may be subject to change due to extreme weather, supply-chain disruptions, site conditions, or permit delays. The Contractor will communicate adjustments as early as reasonably possible.
- Force Majeure: Neither party shall be liable for delays or increased costs arising from events beyond human control, including natural disasters, fire, pandemics, labor strikes, government mandates, or infrastructure failures. Additional time and fees may apply to remediate such impacts.
5. Change Orders and Cost Escalation
- Change Orders: Any modification to the scope of work must be documented in writing, include revised pricing and timeline adjustments, and be approved by the Client before work proceeds. Verbal modifications are not binding.
- Cost Escalation Provision: Pricing is based on market conditions at the time of quotation. The Contractor is not responsible for unforeseen increases in material costs, fuel charges, tariffs, or transportation fees. In the event of such increases, the Contractor reserves the right to issue a change order and additional invoicing to cover the increased costs required to complete the work.
6. Termination and Cancellation
- Contractor Termination: The Contractor may terminate this Agreement if the Client fails to make payments, maintains an unsafe site, interferes with work/staff, or breaches material terms. The Client remains liable for all completed work, materials, restocking fees, and demobilization costs.
- Client Cancellation: In the event of Client cancellation, the 50% deposit is non-refundable. The Client will be billed for all materials purchased, along with applicable restocking and administration fees. No refunds are issued once work has commenced.
7. Insurance Coverage
- General Liability: The Contractor maintains $5,000,000 in general liability insurance. This does not cover materials stored onsite after delivery. Clients are advised to maintain independent insurance for theft or damage to materials.
- Builders Insurance: Builders Insurance (Course of Construction) is not included by default. It is the Client’s responsibility to maintain such coverage unless requested in writing during the quoting process. The Contractor assumes no liability for losses (fire, theft, vandalism, etc.) that would be covered under a Course of Construction policy if the Client fails to obtain it.
8. Limitation of Liability
- General Limitations: The Contractor is not responsible for damage caused by Client misuse, theft after delivery, third-party actions, or pre-existing structural issues. Maximum liability is limited to the total amount paid for services.

- Client: Must provide safe access, keep children/pets away, and disclose known hazards. Work may be suspended without penalty if the site is deemed unsafe.
10. Cleaning and Maintenance
- Contractor: Includes daily organization and standard cleanup of the immediate work area. Exterior cleaning is limited to basic sweeping.
- Client: Responsible for secure storage of materials. Dust accumulation is a normal byproduct of construction and is the Client’s responsibility. Post-construction deep cleaning is available as an additional paid service.
11. Payment Terms and Late Payments
- Payment Schedule: The remaining balance is due immediately upon Project Completion. Weekly progress invoices are due upon receipt.
- Late Payment Administrative Fee: A one-time Administrative Fee of $59.00 will be applied to any account that is not paid by the due date.
- Interest: Overdue accounts will incur interest at a rate of 2.9% every 30 days (compounded monthly) until the balance is paid in full.
- Recovery of Collection Costs: The Contractor reserves the right to recover any and all costs and expenses resulting from or associated with the collection of late payments, including but not limited to collection agency fees, reasonable legal fees, and court costs.
- Financing: Financing is available through Financeit and must be approved prior to the start of work.
