California Service Agreement

A service agreement is an agreement between a contractor, who will provide services, and a property/business owner. These services may vary wildly, ranging from such things as gardening, to cleaning a house, to repairing a deck, to installing a garage door opener.

A service agreement is helpful because it provides the terms and conditions of the arrangement. What is involved in the project? How much will the contractor get paid? How will the arrangement end? When should the project be completed? These are all questions that will be answered in the service agreement. In addition, the service agreement will reaffirm that an employer/employee relationship is not created.

The following service agreement can be used for a one-time project or for on-going services.
