Terms & Conditions
Hinton Home Services - Service Terms
1. Scope of services
These terms apply to services provided by Hinton Home Services (ABN 33 095 641 328). Specifics of each engagement are set out in the quote and any signed work order, which together with these terms form the agreement.
2. Quotes and pricing
Quotes are valid for the period stated on the quote and reflect the scope and conditions described at the time. Variations to scope, materials, or site conditions may result in price adjustments, which will be communicated before the work proceeds.
3. Cancellation and rescheduling
Please let Chris know as early as you can if you need to cancel or reschedule a booked visit, by phone or email. Visits may be postponed when it is too wet to mow properly, and Chris will arrange another day with you. Any notice period or charge for a late cancellation is confirmed when the work is quoted.
4. Payment terms
Prices are quoted in Australian dollars. The final invoice is issued after the work is finished, and the payment terms and accepted payment methods are shown on the quote or invoice. If an invoice is not paid by its due date, Chris will contact you to arrange payment.
5. Workmanship and warranties
The consumer guarantees under the Australian Consumer Law apply to these services and cannot be excluded, including that services are provided with due care and skill. If you are not happy with any part of the work, please contact Chris as soon as you can so the issue can be looked at.
6. Site access and safety
Please make sure Chris can get to the area being worked on, that gates are unlocked and that pets are secured. Tell Chris before the visit about hazards such as hidden objects, holes, drainage covers, irrigation lines, sprinkler heads, in-ground lights or cables, and wasp nests or snakes. Items left on the lawn, such as toys, hoses and furniture, may need to be moved first and can add to the price.
7. Liability
Hinton Home Services holds public liability insurance of $20 million. To the extent permitted by law, liability for a service is limited to supplying the service again or paying the cost of having it supplied again, and does not extend to indirect or consequential loss. Nothing in these terms limits any right you have under the Australian Consumer Law.
8. Privacy
Hinton Home Services collects and handles personal information in accordance with the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the Hinton Home Services Privacy Policy, which is on the Privacy page of this site.
9. Social media
Hinton Home Services runs public social media pages, and the pages it is responsible for are the ones linked from this website. Material posted to them by anyone is not endorsed by Hinton Home Services, carries no warranty as to accuracy, and may be removed without notice if it is unlawful, abusive, misleading or unapproved commercial content. Posting content to those pages grants Hinton Home Services a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to use, reproduce and publish it, including after it is removed from the page.
