-
Unforeseen circumstances (e.g., weather, supply shortages).
-
Client-initiated changes or delays.
-
Outstanding payments or approvals.

Communication

If work is delayed or paused, clients will be notified promptly via phone, email, or written notice.

The notification will include the reason for the delay, the current status, and the next steps.
-
-
Updates:

Regular updates will be provided to clients about the progress of the pending work.

Reasons for Pending Work
Work may be delayed or paused due to:
-
Weather Conditions: For outdoor projects like landscaping or concreting, unsafe or unsuitable weather may cause delays.
-
Material Availability: Delays in receiving required materials from suppliers.

Client Delays: Pending decisions, approvals, or payments from the client.

Rescheduling:

We will work with the client to establish a new timeline for completing the pending work as soon as possible.

Priority will be given to pending projects based on the original schedule and client needs.

If the delay is caused by external factors, the timeline may be extended proportionally.

Outstanding Payments:
-
Pending work caused by non-payment will only resume once the outstanding balance is cleared.

If delays lead to additional costs (e.g., material price changes, extra labor), these will be discussed and agreed upon with the client before resuming work.
-
Client Responsibilities
Clients are responsible for:

Providing timely approvals or decisions necessary for project continuation.
-
Ensuring access to the worksite on scheduled days.

Making payments as per the agreed terms to avoid unnecessary delays.
