Terms of Service
Agreement
Pinnacle Property Care (“The Company”, “We”) is a lawn mowing and garden maintenance small business that is committed to quality gardening and personal service. To ensure great long-term partnerships with our clients (“The client”, “You”) we have a number of terms and conditions that we ask all our clients to read and adhere to when doing business with us.
Agreement: By continuing with the service, you (Client) accept the following terms and conditions.
Quotes and Estimates
All prices include GST (If required) and are valid for 5 working days. Please note that should the nature of the work change, a new quote will be required. If additional unforeseen costs are incurred during work, all reasonable attempts of confirmation from you will be made.
Our standard rate is $60 per hour not including GST. Additional equipment will incur a higher rate.
We reserve the right to amend the initial quotation, should the original requirements change or upon our inspection of the property.

Any expenses or costs incurred by Pinnacle Property Care in recovering any outstanding amounts, including debt collection agency fees or commissions and all legal costs will be payable by the client.
Site Access
Providing access to the property is your responsibility at the agreed time. Failure to do so, may result in the area not being serviced and in some cases, a fee of $40.00 may be charged.
Liability
Use of power equipment may result in debris becoming fast moving projectiles and while all work by Pinnacle Property Care is subject to due care, you (Client) have a responsibility to provide a safe working environment. This includes safe access and removal of debris and objects including but not limited to, stones, tools, toys, bolts and rubbish from the work area for the safety of the operator, bystanders, pets, equipment, and property. We will endeavour to remove such items but do not accept any responsibility for damage caused under routine circumstances except where negligence has occurred, or where Australian law requires.
We understand accidents do happen and we will make sure each incident is investigated individually and if we are found to be liable, we carry Public Liability Insurance. Please report the matter to us by phone or email within 24 hours, with full particulars provided in writing (email or letter) within 7 days. Please include photos where applicable.
Nothing in these terms operates to limit or exclude liability that cannot by law be limited or excluded.
