HOME SERVICE AGREEMENT
NEW SPACES KC
Last Revised: 8/2026
This Home Service Agreement (the “Agreement”) is entered into as of the date of the last signature (the “Effective Date”) by and between New Spaces KC LLC, a Missouri limited liability company (“New Spaces KC” or “Service Provider”) and the client identified in the signature block below (“Client”). This Agreement only covers services at Client’s residence, as identified in the signature block.
This Agreement sets out the terms on which New Spaces KC provides handyman and light trade services to Client on a per-service basis. Client is not enrolled in New Spaces KC’s subscription membership and is not entitled to subscriber benefits such as waiver of the trip fee, priority scheduling, the annual Honey-Do Day, or remodeling discounts.
1. Quotes
Whenever practicable, Client will submit to Service Provider a written description of the requested project, together with photographs, in advance of any trip to the property. Based on that information, Service Provider will use its best efforts to provide Client with a quote for the work.
Client understands that a quote is an estimate based on the information available at the time it is given.
If, upon arrival or during the course of the work, Service Provider discovers factors that reveal additional complexity or otherwise increase the scope of service beyond what was reasonably anticipated, Service Provider is authorized to perform the additional work and to charge the final service charge as reasonably determined by Service Provider.
Client understands this and pre-agrees to pay that final charge. Service Provider will make every effort to inform Client of any change to the anticipated charge as soon as it is reasonably determinable. Client unequivocally agrees to pay the final charge for any service that has already been substantially or fully rendered.
2. Trip Fee and Labor
A $159 trip fee applies to each visit. The trip fee covers the first hour of on-site labor. It does not include materials, which may be quoted and billed separately and in advance of the trip.
If it takes more than one hour to make the repair, Client understands the final charge will be more than the trip fee alone.
In general, and for reference only, and except as otherwise quoted, hourly services are typically billed at the following rates:
-
$__________ per hour for plumbing work
-
$__________ per hour for electrical work
-
$__________ per hour for carpentry work
-
$__________ per hour for [other] work
Except as otherwise indicated, hourly services are billable in quarter-hour increments, rounded up to the next quarter hour. The rates above are provided for reference and may be updated by Service Provider from time to time; the rate applicable to any given service is the rate quoted for or in effect at the time of that service.
3. Payment
Invoices are due and payable at the conclusion of service unless otherwise agreed in writing.
4. Deposits
Deposit required for this engagement:
☐ Yes, in the amount of $______________
☐ No
Whether a deposit is required is determined by Service Provider on an engagement-by-engagement basis and will be indicated above (or on the applicable scope of work or quote) for each project.
Separately, and regardless of the box checked above, if Client does not have the necessary materials on site, Client must pay Service Provider a deposit based on Service Provider's good-faith estimate of the cost of those materials before Service Provider is obligated to obtain them or proceed with the affected work.
5. Materials
Client is encouraged to have all materials on site prior to Service Provider's arrival.
If Service Provider obtains materials on Client's behalf, the time spent doing so is billable, and the cost of materials is Client's responsibility. Any materials deposit is applied against the final invoice.
6. Scope of Work; Quotes Incorporated
The particular scope of work or quote for each discrete service or set of services will be documented and, once accepted, forms a part of the overall agreement between the parties.
In the event of a conflict between a specific accepted scope of work or quote and the general terms of this Agreement, the specific scope of work or quote controls as to that service.
7. Standing Behind the Work; Limitation of Liability
Service Provider stands behind the work it performs. Service Provider will have a reasonable opportunity to cure any deficiency in its work before Client engages another party or pursues any remedy, and Client agrees to allow Service Provider that opportunity to cure.
Except in the case of Service Provider's gross negligence or willful misconduct, Service Provider's responsibility is limited to loss or damage that is truly proximate to the work actually performed.
By way of illustration, loss or damage is proximate to the work where it is the direct and foreseeable result of the specific task Service Provider performed — for example, a leak at the specific joint Service Provider repaired.
Loss or damage is not proximate where it arises from a separate system, a pre-existing condition, ordinary wear, the acts of others, or a cause independent of the specific work performed — for example, a failure elsewhere in the plumbing system that Service Provider was not engaged to service.
Service Provider is not responsible for:
-
conditions, defects, or information meaningful to Service Provider's performance that Client did not disclose or that were not reasonably discoverable by Service Provider;
-
pre-existing conditions, code deficiencies, or latent defects not caused by Service Provider's work;
-
damage arising from Client-supplied materials or from Client's or a third party's own work or interference;
-
consequential, incidental, indirect, or punitive damages, or lost profits; and
-
ordinary wear and tear or the natural aging of systems and components.
Client must raise any concern with the work as soon as reasonably practicable after Client knows or should have known of it, with the reasonable time depending on the nature of the defect (for example, an active water leak must be reported promptly, while a cosmetic issue may be reported within a reasonable period).
Failure to timely raise a concern may limit Service Provider's ability to cure and Client's remedies.
8. Emergency and Specialized Services; Recommended Contractors
Client acknowledges that Service Provider provides general handyman and light trade services and does not guarantee availability for emergency service or for serious repairs.
For serious, hazardous, or emergency situations — or for work that requires a licensed specialist — Client acknowledges that Client is responsible for contacting a licensed emergency contractor or specialist.
Service Provider recommends the following contractors for reference; Client is free to use any provider of Client's choosing, and Service Provider does not warrant the work of, and is not responsible for, any third-party contractor:
Plumber
Name: ____________________
Phone: __________________
Electrician
Name: ____________________
Phone: __________________
HVAC
Name: ____________________
