Terms Of Service
Payment and AutoPay
All mowing clients are required to use AutoPay for payment. A working credit card must be kept on file, and charges will be automatically processed the same business date or the following business day for all services rendered. To ensure secure and timely payments, we only accept credit cards. Checks or ACH payments may be accepted on a case by case basis.
Statements and Fees
Statements for outstanding balances are sent towards the end of each month. Late fees of $20 will apply after 30 days of non-payment, with an additional $20 fee every 30 days thereafter. For example, if your payment is delayed by more than 30 days, a $20 late fee will apply. After another 30 days, an additional $20 will be charged.
If a credit card declines, service will be paused until payment is made. For any project over $1,000, a 3% credit card processing fee will be added. Accounts with unpaid balances for 45 days will be sent to collections.
Service Cancellation
You may cancel our service at any time, for any reason. Cancellations must be submitted via email to office@ceirrigation.com or client portal at least 48 hours before your next scheduled service. Failure to notify within this period will result in charges for that service visit.
Upon receiving your cancellation request, a confirmation email will be sent to you to verify the process has been completed. If you do not receive this email, please contact us to avoid any misunderstandings.
