Same.     Customer refused to sign the service agreement after the install.   
She was kind of pissed off when we went back and picked up the equipment.    Oh 
well.

  I don't know about that. We've had people who requested service, and then 
refused to sign our service agreement. No signy. No servicey. Our service 
agreement was pretty short and simple.

Good thing we had good insurance.

          I have repaired tons of stuff, bought trees, bought sod, whatever it 
takes to make the landowner happy.  Not really their fault either if they don’t 
know it is there.  Just the cost of doing business.  GL takes care of hitting 
the city water main and washing it all into someone’s basement etc.  My crews 
have hit 4 city water mains and it is no picnic.  2 of them were our fault.

          When the attorney feeds back I may update the erosion control. But 
I'm no taking liability for somebody who chooses not to water. Even if I put 
sod down it still needs water. I can the soil back in a condition conducive to 
root growth, but I cant control what the landowner does. 
          I'll add a link to the JULIE website so customer can see what my 
responsibilities are there. I do think adding that the customer may need to 
expose their own things that's a good idea.
          Will be waiting on the attorney for the what I will do's since that 
can open a whole lot of liabilities. 
          I've read through a bunch of them and they range from pristine 
restoration all the way to fuck you, pay me. 
          I just dont want to hit some leech field tie in and have to pay for 
that.
          I carry more insurance than I need but I prefer to not use it. Most 
everything I can locate with the utiliguard, and I can repair most anything I 
hit unknowingly.
          An example is a nearby guy knicked an unknown LP run to a garage. It 
leaked half a full tank and he had to pay for it out of pocket. I'd pay it too, 
I just dont want to be obligated to.

            clearly define what you will and won't do, and what you can and 
cannot
            reasonably avoid. For example, you can reasonably avoid a private
            power run to an out building if the homeowner discloses it's
            existence, you should have equipment to locate the exact path/depth.
            Other things that are not locatable, what we do is put the
            responsibility on the homeowner to locate & expose. We typically 
have
            to do this for drainage lines, dog fence wires etc. And you 
definitely
            do want a disclaimer of liability for hitting something that was not
            disclosed and you would have no way to know of it's existence.
            Whether that disclaimer would stand up in court is another issue. I
            also think telling the homeowner they are responsible for future
            erosion control is going too far, your crew should be doing enough
            restoration to stabilize the ground and get grass growing again.
