Installation and Sales Agreement


Last updated: December 1, 2022


Simply Put


Remember the days when a handshake was all that was needed to consummate a business agreement? But even back then misunderstandings arose. The written contract is a better way to alleviate misunderstandings and unlike the spoken word, can be revisited to clear things up.

The Installation and Sales Agreement below is part of every job that we do. This contract is a protection for us and also for you. It guarantees you QUALITY workmanship. Note the provision in paragraph 1 for repairs by us in the unlikely event of labor errors, for ONE FULL YEAR! It also assures us that you are committed to the work at hand and spells out some of the details as to who is responsible for such things as electrical power as shown in paragraph 7.

We want to assure you that we are committed to providing you with the personal attention of a “handshake” and the clarity of a written agreement. Thank you for your interest in our company! It is our desire that by providing this agreement on our website, that you can sense our commitment of transparency and good will. We also hope that it nudges you our direction.

AUDIOVISUAL DESIGN WITH YOU IN MIND

Puzzled at the prospect of finding the right company to handle your design needs?

Before a system is installed, it has to be designed. A properly designed audiovisual system can make the difference between dull and muddled or bright and clear. Sound systems especially are affected by the acoustics of a room. If that isn’t taken into account, you can throw all the money and premium electronic gadgets at a job, and you will still not achieve the clarity of a less expensive system that has been properly designed. Even things like air conditioning systems can affect the intelligibility of a sound system.

If you are in the market for a new audiovisual system, make sure that it is properly designed before any equipment is ever proposed, let alone installed. We can help make the pieces fit.
