Applicable taxes, including Harmonized Sales Tax (HST) or other taxes required by law, will be added where applicable.

Payment terms will be stated on the applicable quote, invoice, or service agreement. If no specific payment term is stated, payment is due upon receipt of invoice.

Northvale Gardenworks Ltd. may require a deposit, prepayment, or retainer before scheduling or commencing work, particularly for larger projects, planting installations, material purchases, or recurring maintenance arrangements.

Accepted payment methods may include e-transfer, credit card, cheque, direct deposit, or other methods approved by Northvale Gardenworks Ltd.. Additional processing fees may apply where permitted by law and disclosed to the Customer.

Late payments may be subject to interest at the lesser of 2% per month, 24% per year, or the maximum rate permitted by applicable law, calculated from the due date until paid in full.

Customers may request to cancel or reschedule a service appointment by contacting Northvale Gardenworks Ltd. as soon as possible. Cancellation and rescheduling are subject to availability and may be affected by seasonal demand and weather conditions.

Unless otherwise agreed in writing, cancellations made less than 48 hours before a scheduled service may be subject to a cancellation fee to cover administrative time, lost scheduling availability, labour allocation, and preparation costs.

If Northvale Gardenworks Ltd. arrives at the property and cannot perform the work due to lack of access, locked gates, unsafe conditions, unsecured animals, missing Customer approvals, or other Customer-caused issues, the visit may be treated as a late cancellation and may be billed in whole or in part.
