This Work Authorization Agreement (“Agreement”) is made this by and between "BuildTechPro" (“Provider”) (hereinafter referred to as "BuildTechPro") and

WHEREAS, the Client desires to hire BuildTechPro to perform emergency mitigation and restoration services for the property located at;

WHEREAS, The Client authorizes BuildTechPro to proceed with its recommended procedures to secure from further damage, preserve, protect, and restore the Property.

WHEREAS, BuildTechPro, which is in the business of providing, among other services, emergency water, and fire damage cleanup, mitigation, and restoration services, desires to provide such services to the Client upon the terms and conditions provided herein; and

WHEREAS, the Parties desire to enter into this Agreement to set forth the terms and conditions that will govern the Provider’s provision of the Services to the Client.
THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, upon the general terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement and intending to be legally bound, the Parties hereto agree as follows:
DIRECTION OF PAY: Providing the Client has valid and adequate insurance coverage for all or part of the services to be performed by BuildTechPro, the Client authorizes and directs their insurance carrier to pay BuildTechPro directly and to name BuildTechPro on any insurance drafts applicable to this loss. 

I understand my credit card will be charged after receiving the bill and I will be responsible for collecting the amount from my insurance carrier.
ASSIGNMENT OF INSURANCE BENEFITS: Client hereby assigns any and all insurance rights, benefits, proceeds, and causes of action under any applicable insurance policies to Provider. This assignment is made in consideration of the Provider performing the services, and not requiring a down payment from the Client prior to starting work. The Client hereby acknowledges that the insurance company is billed as a courtesy and convenience to the Client; should the Client's insurance company fail to honor the assignment of claims and interest, and direction to pay, the Client agrees to pay the Provider any balances due from the Clien'ts personal funds. The Client further acknowledges and agrees that BuildTechPro is working for the Client, and not for their insurance company. Therefore, it is understood that the Client is ultimately responsible for full payment of services rendered pursuant to this Agreement.

Check all the boxes, please.

Third Party Authorization: I have hired “Provider” as to make the repairs at my “Property”. As a result of the damages I have filed a claim with my “Insurance Carrier”, and provided the “Claim Number”. I hereby authorize my “Provider” to submit estimates, supplements and bids for the repairs to my property so it may be returned to a pre-loss condition. I also authorize my “Provider” and their administrative partners to communicate with my insurance carrier directly, by phone, e-mail or regular mail, regarding the loss and the repairs needed to return my property to its pre-loss condition. I also authorize my “Insurance Carrier” to share documents and disbursement of funds with my “Provider” and their administrative partners in regard to this "Claim Number”. I hereby request my "Insurance Provider" to not refuse to speak with the individuals that represent the "Provider" – as their contact is authorized by me. I will be incurring charges for general contractor overhead and profit for the repairs to my property. I understand that my policy provides for payment of Overhead and Profit and that O&P is accounted for in the premiums I pay for my policy. I do not have the time or expertise to hire and coordinate the various trades and order the proper materials to make the necessary repairs at my property, which is why I have elected to hire a general contractor to handle this for me.
I also expect for the removal of the damaged materials to be preformed by the appropriate trades for the task as I do not want to expose myself to the risk of having unskilled laborers damaging my property or compromising my warranties and that the skilled laborers be paid according to their trade labor rates.

Effect of Abnormal Water: Water indoors is an abnormal condition and may cause or contribute to several problems. The potential for property damage and adverse health effects increases the longer materials remain wet. There are at least four progressive stages of indoor water damage.

1. Water migrates into areas not affected initially. Water spreads laterally into adjoining rooms, penetrates materials below, and wicks up into porous materials above. It is best to evaluate all affected areas, not just areas with visible saturation.

2. Saturated materials begin swelling as they absorb moisture. Drying and restoration will restore them in many situations, and the damage may be permanent in others. Rapid drying will help reduce the chance of permanent damage.

3. As water evaporates, it causes an abnormal humidity condition. High humidity can damage some porous materials if allowed to continue. Humidity damage is most common when the indoor humidity exceeds 60% over time. It is best to reduce indoor humidity quickly to help prevent humidity damage.

4.After water intrusion, mold and bacterial spores can germinate and multiply. Microorganisms can cause mold damage and degrade indoor air quality. Some microorganisms produce antigens and allergens, which cause allergies, while others can cause infections and toxic diseases.

Reducing Mildew Growth & Damage: Several things can be done to help reduce mold growth and damage to affected materials: 

1. Water can be removed;

2. Antimicrobial agents can be applied to help inhibit the growth of mold and other bio-contaminants;

3. Rapid air movement can be introduced into areas and cavities to increase the rate of evaporation, and

4. Relative Humidity (RH) indoors can be reduced.

Authorization: I, the Owner/Agent for the above Property, authorize BuildTechPro, its subcontractors, its agents, and representatives to enter my property, furnish materials, supply all equipment, and perform all labor necessary to mitigate, preserve, and protect my property from further damage, and to perform all restoration procedures necessary to repair and restore the carpet, furniture, structure, building materials, and other furnishings.

Pricing and Payment: I understand that water damage is a progressive condition and that drying time varies depending on the types of materials, the quantity of water, degree of saturation, airflow volume and velocity, temperature, and indoor & outdoor humidity. Therefore, I understand it is impracticable to give an accurate quote for services before completion. I agree to pay the total price for the work BuildTechPro performs. BuildTechPro uses an industry-standard price list for mitigation services; a copy is available upon request.

Stop Work-Hold Harmless: In the event that BuildTechPro is prevented from performing its recommended mitigation and remediation procedures and/or drying equipment is removed prematurely, I agree to release and hold BuildTechPro harmless and indemnify BuildTechPro and all of BuildTechPro's subsidiaries, subcontractors, and agents against any claims, actions, and liabilities that may result from such incomplete procedures

Authorization to Apply Antimicrobial Agents: To inhibit the growth of microorganisms during the drying process, industry best practice involves the treatment of wet materials with a commercial antimicrobial agent. The Client hereby authorizes BuildTechPro to treat all wet materials with antimicrobial agents as part of the mitigation and restoration process.

Therefore, I agree to release, indemnify, and hold BuildTechPro harmless for any biological odors or growth, indoor air quality degradation, and any mold-related personal injuries or other damages to health that may occur due to microbiological activity during and/or after the mitigation process.

Drying Equipment: I understand that high-velocity air movers ("fans") and dehumidifiers will be installed to increase the rate of drying. The Client represents and warrants that they: Will not allow children to play with this equipment; Will not turn off the equipment without first calling Buildtechpro; Will not leave windows open unless expressly instructed to do so by Buildtechpro, as this may delay or impair the drying process; and Will minimize entering the affected rooms, especially those where the carpet is being dried.

Health and Safety: To ensure the health and safety of the Client and Buildtechpro's agents and representatives on the Property, the Client represents and warrants that they shall abide by the following precautions:

- If dehumidifiers or fans are moved, these units shall be shut off and unplugged, as it may be hazardous to move these units while they are operating.

- Take care when walking near the tackless strip, as the exposed tackless strip presents a danger even when covered.

- Take extreme care when walking on, around, or from wet flooring materials, as floors may become slippery when wet.

Airborne Contaminants: Buildtechpro's mitigation efforts can sometimes cause preexisting contaminants to become airborne, exposing those on the Property to various health risks. As a result, Buildtechpro highly recommends that all persons coming into contact with the Property during the mitigation and remediation process wear Protective Personal Equipment (PPE). Buildtechpro also recommends that all occupants of the Property seek alternative work or living arrangements while mitigation and remediation efforts are underway. In the event the Property remains occupied, the Client represents and warrants they shall take reasonable care to protect any occupants from any health hazards presented by the Property during this period, including, but not limited to: Asbestos, Lead, Mold, Etc. The Client further agrees to release, indemnify, and hold Buildtechpro and its subcontractors, agents, representatives, etc. harmless for any biological odors, growths, or degradation of indoor air quality that may result during and/or after the mitigation and remediation process.

Site Hazards: Active mitigation and remediation work sites can present many dangerous conditions that may result in injury to the Client and others who enter the Property. The Client agrees to release, indemnify, and hold Buildtechpro and its subcontractors, agents, representatives, etc. harmless for any personal injuries or damage to the health and well-being of all those who enter the Property both during and after the mitigation and remediation process.

Equipment Responsibility: The Client represents and warrants that:

- They are personally liable for any damage to, loss, or theft of Buildtechpro's equipment while in their care and custody;

- Also, They shall take reasonable precautions to ensure that Buildtechpro's equipment is not lost, stolen, or damaged.

If Buildtechpro's equipment is lost, stolen, or damaged, the Client hereby agrees to pay for the total replacement cost of Buildtechpro's equipment and all consequential losses resulting from the damage, loss, or theft of Buildtechpro's equipment.

Insurance Payments: If an insurance company makes any payment directly to the Owner/Agent, payment shall be remitted to BuildTechPro within three (3) working days. The Client represents and warrants that they are personally liable for all work performed by BuildTechPro, BuildTechPro's subsidiaries, and BuildTechPro's subcontractors, agents, and representatives, regardless of whether an insurance company covers the loss or not. Any charges for services not reimbursed by an insurance company are due upon completion of the work.

Services: The Client acknowledges and agrees that, due to the emergency nature of the services being provided, BuildTechPro is incapable of providing a detailed, written estimate of the services to be performed, or with a statement of the materials to be used during, or specifications for, the services or an approximate completion date prior to completion of work. The Client further understands and agrees that BuildTechPro's services under this Agreement will commence immediately upon signing.

Unrelated Conditions/Work: The Client acknowledges and agrees that BuildTechPro is not responsible for detecting, addressing, correcting, or repair of conditions or areas unrelated to the event that necessitated the retainment of BuildTechPro's services. The Client understands and agrees that the Client is personally responsible for any and all charges, costs, and deductibles not covered by insurance.

Special/Fragile/Valuable Items: The Client agrees to take full responsibility for special, fragile, or valuable items of personal property, and that BuildTechPro, BuildTechPro's employees, and agents shall not be liable for the theft, damage, or disappearance of any such items.
