We will discuss any pricing changes with you before performing additional work.

Weather. We reserve the right to reschedule services due to weather conditions that affect work quality or safety. We will text you the day before to confirm or reschedule.
Customer cancellations. You may reschedule or cancel a booked service in advance at no charge. Cancellations made on short notice, after our crew has been dispatched, may be subject to a trip fee.
No-shows. If our crew arrives at the scheduled time and cannot access the property or perform the work, a trip fee may apply.

Damage claims. If you believe M&C Outdoor Services caused damage during the course of work, notify us promptly after the service date.

Limitations. M&C Outdoor Services is not responsible for damage caused by pre-existing conditions, including but not limited to undisclosed underground utilities or irrigation lines, pre-existing drainage or grading problems, unstable or undisclosed soil and sub-base conditions, and undisclosed delicate plants or landscaping.
8. Guarantees
If you are not satisfied with the quality of our work, contact us and we will return to the property to address any issues at no cost to you. This guarantee applies to the original scope of work and does not extend to work that was not part of the quoted service.
9. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, M&C's total liability to you for any claim arising from or related to our services is limited to the amount you paid us for the specific service giving rise to the claim.
We are not liable for indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages, including but not limited to lost profits, lost revenue, or property value loss.
This limitation does not apply to gross negligence or willful misconduct, and does not affect any rights you have under applicable law that cannot be limited or waived.
