1. SERVICES
Xception Building provides building, renovation, and construction services for residential and commercial projects. Our services include, but are not limited to:
• New home construction
• Home renovations and extensions
• Commercial building and fit-outs
• Project management
• Custom joinery and specialised work
The specific services to be provided will be detailed in a separate agreement or quote provided to you.
2. QUOTATIONS AND CONTRACTS
Any quotations provided by Xception Building are valid for 30 days from the date of issue, unless otherwise stated. Quotations are subject to change if the scope of work is altered or if there are significant changes in material costs.
A binding contract is only formed when you accept our written quote and we provide written confirmation of your acceptance. Any variations to the agreed scope of work must be in writing and may result in changes to the price and timeline.
3. PAYMENT TERMS
Payment terms will be specified in your individual contract or quote. Typically, we require:
• A deposit upon acceptance of the quote
• Progress payments at specified stages of the project
• Final payment upon completion of the project
Failure to make payments as agreed may result in work being suspended or terminated. We reserve the right to charge interest on overdue amounts at the rate of 2% per month.
4. TIMEFRAMES
While we strive to complete projects within the estimated timeframe, delays can occur due to factors beyond our control, such as weather conditions, material shortages, or regulatory issues. We will communicate any significant delays and work to minimise their impact on your project.
5. WARRANTIES AND GUARANTEES
We provide warranties on our workmanship as required by Australian Consumer Law and any applicable state-based building regulations. The specifics of these warranties will be detailed in your contract.
Manufacturer warranties for materials and fixtures are passed on to you and are subject to the manufacturer's terms and conditions.

9. TERMINATION
