Make your Free Carpentry Contract

As a carpenter, you can create Carpentry Contracts in order to safeguard your interests when offering woodwork or carpentry services. When it is drafted properly, this essential legal agreement, often between a property owner and carpenter, may help to reduce conflicts by ensuring that the understanding is mutual. With Rocket Lawyer, your Carpentry Agreement is not just a generic carpenter contract template. If you ever require support from a lawyer due to missed payments or another problem, your membership offers the optional benefit of Document Defense^®.

Even if being a carpenter is your side gig, it is critical to capture the details of any agreements with those hiring you in writing. The benefits listed below might help you make the decision to use one:

• Neither party is confused about fees charged
• Neither party is surprised by how long the engagement lasts
• Both parties understand the scope of their responsibilities

If you or your client decide against signing a Carpentry Agreement, neither party will be able to experience all of the aforementioned protections.

The specific details to cover are:

• The client's full name and address
• How payment will be made
• Whether the project will be ongoing or if it will last for a set period of time
• What tasks you will be doing once hired

As you might hope with an agreement like this one, your Carpentry Contract will also contain the typical legalese regarding the non-employer relationship between the carpenter and client, liability for losses, and the method(s) of dispute resolution. During the process of building your agreement, you'll also be able to determine its state of jurisdiction. With the Rocket Lawyer document tool, you have the power to implement further customization, as well.

Fortunately, you will not need to pay hundreds of dollars in legal fees to get your contract in writing.
