T ERMS. Xxxxx Xxxx School of Austin, a Texas non-profit corporation ("Xxxxx Xxxx") and the Parents (identified in Section II) of the Student (identified in Section I), enter into this Parent Tuition Contract (the “Contract”), and with the intent to be contractual bound, agree to the following:
T ERMS. This agreement is valid effective _ _ and shall remain in force for a period of not less than twelve months and shall continue to renew annually until cancelled or terminated.
T ERMS. The Company agrees to perform a short-term (48-hour minimum) Radon test using E.P.A. qualified professional detection equipment at the Subject Property. The Client agrees to pay the Company all fees associated with this service, and understands that failure to remit payment will result in the test results being withheld until such time that payment is received in full. After the Client has remitted payment, test results will be emailed to the Client. Any tests that are performed will conform to established E.P.A. testing protocol within the limits described below. The testing device (e-Perm ‘Electret Radon Monitor') will be placed in the lowest livable area of the home as determined by the Company Inspector/Technician. The Client is hereby advised that although the E.P.A. short term Radon testing protocol requires a single radon test at the lowest livable level of the home, radon levels may differ and possibly be higher over other foundation areas in the same building (e.g. levels in different sections of the same large basement, above an addition crawl space, and above a slab -on-grade living area can differ significantly). The Company will provide, at specific Client request, additional Radon in Air testing for an additional fee for each additional test. If additional testing is scheduled in advance and performed at the same time as the principal test, and additional fee of $75 per additional test will apply. If the results of radon testing indicate indoor radon concentrations of 4 pCi/L or greater, the E.P.A. recommends having an E.P.A. compliant company perform radon mitigation. Following completion of any needed mitigation work, mitigation installers may perform a follow up test for quality control purposes, but due to inherent conflicts of interest the E.P.A. recommends independent follow up testing. The Client understands, for greatest testing accuracy, the E.P.A. requires testing be conducted under "closed house" testing protocol, which must be implemented 12-hours prior to testing and must continue through the 48-hour testing period. "Closed house" conditions require the following:
T ERMS. The Company will perform a visual assessment of the accessible areas of the Primary Structure and report on the discovery, or non-discovery, of infestation and/or damage caused by wood destroying insects present at the date and time of the inspection to visible and readily accessible building components. Where evidence of treatment is reported, then the Client should assume that the treatment was applied as a curative, and not as a preventative, measure. Independent of inspection findings, the Client should obtain a statement from the owner as to any known prior or active wood destroying insect damage, activity, and treatments that have been carried out to the property. The Client agrees that it is the Client's sole responsibility to obtain copies of any paperwork issued for previous treatments. Furnishings, stored items, and personal belongings are not within the scope of evaluation. The client is hereby informed that all past and present damage, nesting, and waste of animals, insects not specifically identified as wood destroying insects above, & all other organisms, are explicitly outside the scope of a Wood Destroying Insect inspection and are not evaluated for nor reported. All buildings have some vulnerability to entry and nesting/growth of insects, animals, and other organisms. This inspection does not include evaluation for possible points of entry for any organisms. The client assumes responsibility for obtaining separate evaluations as needed. The Client understands that due to limitations out of the control of the Company, including but not limited to scheduling conflicts, additional costs and fees, licensing regulations and regional restrictions, the Company cannot guarantee that one of its Inspectors exclusively perform the wood destroying insect inspections. In the event that the Company does not directly perform this service, the Company agrees to schedule, for the Client, a vendor provided wood destroying insect inspection at the Subject Property, from a licensed pest inspection agency. The Company will collect payments due and deliver the inspection report findings to the Client. The Client agrees to pay the Company all fees associated with this service, and understands that failure to remit payment will result in the test results being withheld until such time that payment is received in full. Additionally, the Client understands and agrees that if this service is provided by an outside vendor, the Company is released of all liability reg...
T ERMS. The Company agrees to perform Mold Air Sampling Collection using certified professional equipment at the Subject Property, which will be analyzed by an independent laboratory (hereinafter the "Lab") to detect the quantitative presence of mold spores. The Client agrees to pay the Company all fees associated with this service, and understands that failure to remit payment will result in the test results being withheld until such time that payment is received in full. The Client further agrees that beyond sample collection and paying for overnight shipping, the Company has no control over and no responsibility for damages, consequences, inconvenience, or expense arising from shipping company sample delivery timing and laboratory analysis turnaround time. The Client is hereby informed that it is not possible to determine the presence or absence, extent, or type of microbial contamination from a visual assessment and that mold testing services do not include a comprehensive evaluation of building surfaces for the presence of suspicious discoloration nor evaluation of building systems for risk factors that could increase the likelihood of mold growth. The client may elect to schedule an Inspector, for an additional fee, to perform a visual evaluation of readily accessible areas and systems of the subject property for signs, symptoms, and risk factors related to mold growth if a Home Inspection had not been performed, if additional assessment is desired, or if conditions at the subject property have changed. Mold Air Sampling Analysis provides information regarding the extent and type of microbial growth only in areas tested under the conditions present at the time of sample collection. No determination will be made regarding the presence or absence of mold growth within enclosed cavities, within HVAC duct-work (unless specific testing for HVAC components is requested and paid for by the Client), under, behind, or upon stored items and furnishings. At Client request, surface sampling of suspicious discoloration on surfaces will be performed at the same date and time for an additional fee of $75.00 per sample collected, resulting in only a qualitative lab result (presence or absence of mold spores and spore genus). Surface sampling for mold only determines the presence or absence of mold spores in the specific location sampled. Air sampling for mold determines only the concentration and type of airborne mold spores present in the area sampled at the time of sample...
T ERMS. The Company agrees to collect a water sample at the Subject Property, which will be analyzed by an independent, certified water testing laboratory (hereinafter the "Lab"). The Client agrees to pay the Company all fees associated with this service, and understands that failure to remit payment will result in the test results being withheld until such time that payment is received in full. After the Client has remitted payment, test results will be emailed to the Client as they become available from the lab. Any tests that are performed will conform to established testing protocol within the limits described below, to ensure accurate results. If the results of this test indicate water contamination above the maximum thresholds, it is recommended to have necessary repairs made, and subsequently test the water quality.
T ERMS. The Company agrees to schedule, for the Client, a vendor provided septic inspection at the Subject Property. The Company will collect payments due and deliver the inspection report findings to the Client. The Client agrees to pay the Company all fees associated with this service and understands that failure to remit payment will result in the inspection report being withheld until such time that payment is received in full. The Client understands that a standard septic inspection is outside the scope of a residential inspection, and therefore the Company will not directly perform this service. Furthermore, in understanding that this service is to be completed by an outside vendor, the Client acknowledges and agrees that the Company is released of all liability regarding the septic inspection, including, but not limited to, any incidental damages resulting from delays in service or reporting from the contractor. The client understands that they may be required to sign and agree to the outside vendor's own set of terms and conditions, and understands that all claims and disputes regarding the septic inspection should be discussed directly with the outside vendor. Acceptance and understanding of this agreement are hereby acknowledged.
T ERMS. The Company agrees to perform a limited well flow inspection at the Subject Property. The Client agrees to pay the Company all fees associated with this service prior to the scheduled service date, and understands that failure to remit payment will result in service being canceled until such time that payment is received in full. The Client acknowledges and understands that a limited well flow test consists of:
T ERMS. The Company agrees to perform an hourly inspection at the subject property, billed at the hourly rate of $325.00 per hour for the first hour, and an additional $150 per each subsequent hour—with a 1 hour minimum—beginning at the appointment time regardless of delays caused by circumstances or individuals to subject property access or caused by client guidance (or lack thereof) to the inspector. If the client wishes to request an additional hour for their Walk 'n Talk, it will be xxxx at half the cost of the original hour. The Client agrees that any time taken by the inspector to access, examine, evaluate, and explain findings and/or options for correction/repair are included as billable time. The Client is advised that no written, audio, or photographic record of Walk ‘n Talk Evaluation scope, results, and/or recommendations will be made, taken, provided, or retained by the inspector or by the Company with the sole exception that the client may purchase, only before the start of the scheduled appointment, a written report of hourly inspection findings for an additional $50.00 fee. Said report will include only components and symptoms specifically requested for evaluation by the client. The Client agrees to pay the Company all fees associated with this service and understands that failure to remit payment will result in the inspection not being performed as scheduled. Video and audio recording is not permitted by agreement herein, though the client is encouraged to take photographs and written notes during the evaluation. The client and the inspector may agree, in person, to begin billable inspection time before the scheduled appointment. Any additional time requested by the client—at the end of the scheduled appointment duration—will be provided by the Inspector, at the agreed billable rate, only if the Inspector’s schedule permits extending the length of the appointment, at the sole discretion of the Inspector. If a second trip to the property is requested for any reason, the same billable rates apply, with a one hour minimum regardless of time needed on site. The Client understands that a Walk ‘n Talk Evaluation is not a Home Inspection. Due to the client-directed and limited nature of this evaluation, the Client agrees that the Company shall not be responsible, nor liable for any issue, symptom, or concern not identified during the evaluation. Any observations made in passing by the inspector are provided as a courtesy to the client and do not indicate ...
