Construction Commando Announces California Construction Contracts and Forms
Construction Commando announces new California construction contracts and mechanic's lien waiver forms.
San Diego, CA, September 18, 2008 --(PR.com)-- Construction Commando, a leading self-help legal resource for California’s construction industry, today announced the release of two new contractor forms packages on its website, www.constructioncommando.com. The site contains construction related legal documents, including packages featuring the California Home Improvement Contract and Mechanic’s Lien Waiver & Release.
“Nobody wants to be on the receiving end of a violation letter from the Contractors State License Board,” said Suzanne Ervine, who established the Construction Commando in 2006 to provide low cost legal services to California contractors. “Many residential contractors don’t realize that their work requires a specific contract that meets strict legal requirements.”
In California any contract with a homeowner or tenant, for work on a residence with up to four units, falls within the scope of Home Improvement Contracting. If the contract price is more than $750, a Home Improvement Contract is required. “Whether you’re installing a new water heater for $800 or building a room addition for $80,000, the contract requirements are the same,” said Ervine. Contractors working on projects valued at $750 or less may utilize the Service & Repair Contract, also mandated by statute, and included as part of Construction Commando’s Contracts Package.
Construction Commando’s contracts package is specifically designed for the residential contractor, and contains 14 documents in PDF and rich text formats, including: Home Improvement Contract, Waiver of Right to Cancel, Service & Repair Contract, Contract Change Order, Property Improvement Agreement (Residential), Prime Building Contract (Non-Residential), Subcontract Agreement and Conditional and Unconditional Waivers & Releases. The package sells for $185, and may be customized with the contractor’s logo and slogan for an additional $55.
For just $25, contractors can order the Mechanic’s Lien Waiver & Release package, containing Conditional and Unconditional Waivers & Releases for both progress payments and final payments.
The California Construction Contracts Package and Mechanic’s Lien Waiver & Release forms may be ordered through www.constructioncommando.com. Visitors to the website may also download free contractor notices, including California Preliminary 20-Day Notice forms for both public works projects and private works projects. The site also offers a comprehensive reference library of free articles covering a variety of construction and business law topics.
