These Terms & Conditions apply to the design and drafting services of Atlantis Designs (“we”, “us”) and to the use of this website, atlantisdesigns.ca. By hiring us or using this website, you (“the client”, “you”) agree to them. A written quote or project agreement for your job can add to or change these Terms; where they differ, the quote or agreement applies.
Our services
We provide cabinetry and millwork design and drafting, mainly in Mozaik: layouts, elevations, shop drawings, cut lists, hardware lists, 3D renderings and revisions, for cabinet and millwork shops and for homeowners. Any other service is covered by a separate written agreement.
Quotes, scope and changes
- Each job starts with a quote that sets out what we will deliver, the price and the schedule.
- Work outside the quote, or changes after work has started, may add time and cost. We will confirm any extra cost with you in writing before doing the work.
- The number of revisions included is set in the quote. Further revisions are charged as set out in the quote.
Payment
- Cabinet and millwork shops: we invoice when work is delivered, or as agreed for ongoing work. Invoices are due within 30 days.
- Homeowners: a deposit, set in the quote, is due before work starts. The balance is invoiced when the design is delivered and is due as stated on the invoice.
- Homeowner projects that include fabrication and installation: all prices are estimates and subject to change. A deposit of 60% is due before work starts, a further 20% is due on delivery, and the balance is due on completion.
- Prices are in Canadian dollars, plus applicable taxes.
- Overdue invoices are charged interest of 2% per month (24% per year) from the due date until paid.
- If an invoice is overdue, we may pause work until it is paid.
What you provide
- Accurate plans, measurements and information about the job, and timely answers and approvals.
- Shops working with shared Mozaik folders: access to the folders we need (Data, Jobs, Product Libraries, Insert Libraries, Images and Textures) through your cloud drive. You keep your own backups of those folders and are responsible for your Mozaik setup, libraries and settings. We use our own Mozaik licence.
- The right to share any plans, photos or client information you send us.
Checking before fabrication
Our drawings are based on the information you give us. Before anything is ordered, cut or built, the client is responsible for checking all dimensions, site conditions, materials, hardware and details, and for confirming that the design meets building codes and the requirements of the site. We are not responsible for errors caused by incorrect or incomplete information, or for work built without that check.
Corrections
If our work does not match the agreed scope, or contains a drafting error on our part, tell us and we will correct it at no extra charge.
Ownership of drawings and files
- Cabinet and millwork shops: once a job is paid in full, the project drawings and Mozaik job files we created for it belong to the shop.
- Homeowners: we keep the copyright in the design. Once it is paid in full, you may use the drawings and files we provide to build that project, once, at the project address. You may share them with the cabinet shop, contractors and installers you choose for that project, for quoting and building it. You may not reuse the design for another property or sell it.
- We keep ownership of our own methods, templates, know-how and general design ideas, and may reuse them in other work.
- We do not show a client’s project in our portfolio or marketing without that client’s permission.
Confidentiality
We keep your plans, drawings, client details and business information confidential, and use them only for your jobs. When we work in a shop’s shared Mozaik folders, we work only on the jobs assigned to us. How we handle personal information is explained in our Privacy Policy.
Limitation of liability
To the extent the law allows, our total liability for any claim related to a job is limited to the fees you paid us for that job. We are not liable for indirect or consequential losses, such as lost profit, delays, or the cost of materials, fabrication or installation.
Ending a job
Either of us can end a job by written notice (email is fine). You pay for the work done up to that date, and we hand over the work completed once it is paid.
