  1. A FULL COPY OF THE TERMS & CONDITIONS OUTLINED BELOW ARE PROVIDED WITH EVERY ESTIMATE/PROPOSAL.
    JERSEY SHORE AWNING INC. (hereinafter “JSA” or “we”) hereby warrants all materials to be as specified and that all work shall be performed in a workmanlike manner, according to accepted standard practices. THIS EXPRESS WARRANTY EXCLUDES ALL OTHER AGREEMENTS, REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES, EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED. JSA SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OR MERCHANTABILITY OR WARRANTY OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
  2. “Customer” or “you” understands that all vinyl coated and fabric materials will expand and contract when exposed to changing temperatures and weather conditions. These materials may be used to construct awnings, trim, and binding and JSA cannot warranty these materials against wrinkling and shrinkage. Any necessary sewing or stitching of material will be done with clear thread.
  3. Acrylic material is NOT waterproof. It has a tendency to leak when wet. (Sunbrella, Sattler, etc.) Customer shall have a pro rated warranty on fabric, whether manufactured from vinyl-coated fabric or other fabric types, provided the awning has been maintained and cleaned regularly. The Customer’s failure to maintain and clean the awning regularly could result in the fabric not meeting its intended life expectancy and voiding this warranty. JSA recommends cleaning every three (3) months.
  4. Lateral arm awnings (“Retractable Awnings”) are designed for sun protection only, not for rain protection. JSA cannot warrant Retractable Awnings against collapse or damage resulting from rain, severe weather, or winds in excess of 30 m.p.h. During such time, the Customer is advised to keep these awnings retracted. JSA recommends that Customer use only acrylic fabric with Retractable Awnings. Use of any other fabric voids JSA’s warranty. Motion/wind sensors do not, in any way, guarantee against damage from winds in excess of 30 m.p.h.
  5. JSA shall not be responsible for loss or damage to Customer’s business or property or injury or death to persons. For any risk, liability or responsibility assumed by the Customer and/or Owner under this Contract, or disclaimed by JSA under this Contract (collectively, the “Assumed Risks:), the parties acknowledge and agree that: a] some of the Assumed Risks may be covered under insurance held by the Customer or the property owner; b] JSA shall have no liability (in contract or in tort) to the Risks; and c] such action or inaction on the part of JSA shall not constitute a breach of this Contract or of any duty of care owed to the Customer, a property owner or third parties. Notwithstanding any other contrary provision in the Contract, Customer agrees to indemnify, hold harmless and defend JSA from and against any and all claims, obligations, demands, damages, causes of action, liabilities, losses, and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ and expert fees, whether now known or hereafter known, foreseen or unforeseen, attributable in whole or in part to the Assumed Risks (the “Indemnity”). This Indemnity shall be capped at $1 million dollars (US) and is given to JSA in consideration for the warranty offered by JSA hereunder (if applicable) and/or for the job pricing, which would be higher absent the Indemnity.
  6. The parties agree that Customer’s sole and exclusive remedy against JSA shall be for the repair or replacement of any awning materials, which are defective when delivered. In no event shall JSA be liable for direct, indirect, special, incidental or consequential damages (including loss of profits) whether based on contract, tort or any other legal theory. Any defects or discrepancies in the awning materials as delivered or installed must be reported to JSA within twenty (20) days after the Customer receives the awning materials or it will be conclusively presumed that the awning materials were as ordered and were received in good condition. Notes to JSA of any defects, discrepancies or objections must be delivered in writing via certified or registered mail to JERSEY SHORE AWNING INC., 968 Shrewsbury Avenue, Unit #2, Tinton Falls, NJ 07724.
  7. It is hereby expressly provided that although the said materials have been hereinbefore described, the materials delivered by JSA hereunder shall be deemed to correspond with their description, when they correspond with the sample which has been produced to, examined and selected by the Customer. Since aesthetics is an important factor in our industry and, since JSA’s services are essentially to transform acrylic and metal into pleasing designs, it is sometimes necessary to alter Customer’s layout and/or specifications to make them conform to available materials, acceptable tolerances and engineering or regulatory constraints. JSA reserves the right to make such changes. JSA also reserves the right to cancel this contract if engineering changes required by a governmental entity or permitting authority increase JSA’s materials and/or labor costs by more than 5%. JSA is not obligated to advance any permitting or engineering fees on Customer’s behalf.
  8. JSA will not be responsible for the usefulness of any frame not built or installed by us, unless we are authorized by the customer to rebuild same to JSA’s specifications. JSA does not warrant against water leaks where awning meets wall when existing frames are recovered, unless such leaks are listed and addressed on contract. All awning materials used by JSA have been treated with a mildew inhibitor. Mildew is micro-organic bacteria, which can grow on any materials, metal, glass or plastics. BUT WE OFFER NO GUARANTEE WHATSOEVER THAT MILDEW WILL NOT OCCUR.
  9. It is hereby expressly acknowledged, understood and agreed that this is a contract for a special order of custom fabricated goods and materials and the Customer cannot alter, revoke or cancel the same without the specific written consent of JSA.
  10. The estimated delivery date of this order is subject to contingencies beyond the control of JSA, including, but not limited to, fires, strikes, lockout, inability to secure material, labor or transportation, inclement weather, accidents, Acts of God and unavailability of the Customer. In the event of the occurrence of such contingency, the estimated delivery date shall be extended by equal duration to the extent of the duration of such contingency.
  11. Customer agrees to pay JSA the full balance of the purchase price immediately upon completion and delivery of the material and work to the Customer and time of such payment shall be of the essence. No back charges will be accepted. JSA shall retain title to all goods pending receipt of the entire purchase price.
  12. The Customer covenants and agrees that upon his default by the failure to pay any part of or the entire purchase price when due, or otherwise, JSA shall, at its option, have the right to:
    a. Without judicial action, take possession of all said property and all payment made by the Customer up to the time of said default shall be applied as rent and depreciation on said property for and during the time the property is in the Customer’s possession. Permission is granted to re-enter the property to remove said property; JSA is granted permission to re-enter Customer’s land or structure to remove said property; and/or,
    b. Bring legal action to collect all monies due JSA under the terms of this agreement; and/or,
    c. Enforce and foreclose a lien against the said property without further notice to the Customer; and/or,
    d. Void any warranties and pursue any other remedy available to said company in law or in equity.
  13. The Customer covenants and agrees to pay reasonable attorney’s fees and costs to JSA in the event JSA incurs such fees and costs in enforcing its rights under the terms of this contract, including attorney’s fees incurred in obtaining and enforcing a judgment and/or pursuing or defending an appeal. Any legal action brought by either party shall be governed by New Jersey law and, shall, at JSA’s election, be brought in Monmouth County, New Jersey, or a different county if necessary to enforce JSA’s lien rights or other remedies.
  14. This proposal by JSA shall expire thirty (30) days after the date of issue, but is subject to withdrawal during such time if notice to that effect is given before written acceptance by the Customer. The only terms of the agreement between the Customer and JSA are those set forth in this document, and these terms may be changed or modified only by a writing signed by both parties.
  15. After acceptance of this proposal, any delay by the purchaser may result in a change of price corresponding to any change in the cost of labor or raw materials.
  16. A charge of 1-1/2% per month or fraction thereof (18% per annum) shall be added to all delinquent accounts.
  17. Occasionally after installation, “pinholes” can be found in the awning cover. This is not a result of fabric quality and does not affect the long-term performance of your awning cover. Should this occur, we will address the pinholes to keep water from coming through your awning cover. Once we have addressed this issue, we guarantee, that your awning cover will not fail as a direct result of the original pinholes, for a period of five (5) years from the date of installation.
  18. Over time, awnings experience a great deal of environmental hardship from day-to-day exposure to the elements. This exposure may cause the awning cover to fade and lose color, become brittle and hard or even lose material surface from what is known as “plasticizer migration”. Given these conditions, we know that removing a cover may result in any combination of the following conditions: “pinholes”, cracks, small tears, wrinkles and/or “crazing”. In addition, once awning covers are removed from the frame and reinstalled, they tend to readily attract dirt, smudges and marks. Therefore, if we remove an awning cover from the frame for storage, cleaning and/or maintenance, we cannot guarantee or provide remedy against the above possible conditions. Any awning taken down, regardless of age, will get extremely dirty and Jersey Shore Awning Inc. cannot be held responsible for this occurrence. We recommend that awnings be thoroughly cleaned prior to any work being done, requiring awnings to be taken down.
  19. Concerning warranties for jobs outside of Monmouth, Ocean, Middlesex and Essex Counties. JSA will not be responsible for any expenses incurred by JSA to bring JSA’s labor to and from the job site, or to bring the awnings(s) to and from JSA, including (without limitation): airfare, room and board, taxi’s, rental cars, taxes, duty, labor cost to and from the job site, etc.
  20. Customer acknowledges receipt from JSA of exhibit “A” called “Statutory Disclosures”.
