They supersede any other terms appearing elsewhere and override and exclude any other terms stipulated or incorporated or referred to by the Client whether in the order or instructions or in any negotiations or in any course of dealing established between the Contractor and the Client except where these terms are a Schedule to the Agreement between the Client and the Contractor, in which event these terms apply only to the extent not inconsistent with that Agreement.

2.2 – The Client acknowledges that there are no representations outside these terms and those on the face of the Contractor’s estimate or work authorisation which have induced him to enter into any contract with the Contractor and these terms and those on the face of the Contractor’s estimate or work authorisation shall constitute the entire understanding for the performance of work
(and detailed in paragraph 4 below).

3.2 – Unless otherwise specified by the Contractor in the relevant estimate, estimates are not firm or fixed price quotations. They are estimates of the likely cost of the works and are based on the information at the time made available to the Contractor. The Contractor’s final price will be calculated on the basis specified in the estimate, if any, or if none, in accordance with the Contractor’s standard day rate plus the cost of materials. Furthermore, the Contractor reserves the right to increase the price before carrying out the work by an amount equivalent to any increase to the Contractor in the cost of relevant materials since the date upon which the Contractor’s estimate, written or oral, was given, save that if this would increase the estimated price by more than 10%, the Client may cancel the contract provided he does so before the work is begun.
3.3 – Once work is begun, if it becomes clear that further unforeseeable work is required in order to complete the project, the engineer will make all efforts to contact the client to advise of the extra costs of this work.
