Write a plain-English maintenance agreement
The problem
Regular customers argue about skipped visits, weather and what's "included" when nothing is written down. A plain-English agreement settles it before the first cut.
What AI does
AI turns the way you already run regular visits into a short, plain-English agreement for customers, and lists points you may want to take legal advice on. Whether a term is fair is for you to judge against the official guidance.
Time
The steps, in short
- Write down how your regular visits really work, including weather, cancellations, payment and notice.
- Have AI turn your notes into a short agreement in plain English.
- Compare it with the UK's official guidance on unfair contract terms and take out any term that favours only you.
- Save it as a template and get each customer's agreement in writing before you start.
