FAQ
When do I have to pay for the service/contractor?
The type and amount of the service will affect the payment schedule. You would normally pay the contractor when the job is done. You might pay only after you receive and test the product if it is a product purchased from a supplier like a kitchen range cooker.
Who is responsible for paying for the service
Your SCA will indicate who is responsible in paying for the service. You may be able to file a claim for compensation against the court if the service provider fails to pay in full.
Are there additional considerations I need to make?
Yes - check your local laws regarding the types of projects you can undertake and the conditions you need to meet. You might need approval from the council in order to build in certain states. Other states say that you only need to notify them of your plans. For more information, consult your local authorities.
Is a guarantee a service contract?
A service contract does not constitute a warranty. It is an agreement between 2 parties to exchange goods. If the product fails to perform satisfactorily, the customer will pay for the repair or replacement. This type of contract is also known as a maintenance contract.
How can I get a service contract agreement?
You can request a standard SCA form from your local government. Alternatively, you could use our online quote generator to find out more information about your requirements and then send us your details so we can contact you with further information.
