Homeowner's Rights
A homeowner's rights under the Home Improvement Contractor Law(MGL chapter 142A)and other
consumer protection laws(i.e.MGL chapter 93A)may not be waived in any way,even by agreement.
However,homeowners may be excluded from certain rights if the contractor they choose is not properly
registered as prescribed by law. Homeowners who secure their own building permits are automatically
excluded from all Guaranty Fund provisions of the Home Improvement Contractor Law. The contractor is
responsible for completing the work as described,in a timely and workmanlike manner. Homeowners may
be entitled to other specific legal rights if the contractor guarantees or provides an express warranty for
workmanship or materials. In addition to guarantees or warranties provided by the contractor,all goods
sold in Massachusetts carry an implied warranty of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose. An
enumeration of other matters on which the homeowner and contractor lawfully agree may be added to the
terms of the contract as long as they do not restrict a homeowner's basic consumer rights. If you have
questions about your consumer/homeowner rights,contact the Consumer Information Hotline(listed
below).
Execution of Contract
The contract must be executed in duplicate and should not be signed until a copy of all exhibits and
referenced documents have been attached. Parties are also advised not to sign the document until all blank
sections have been filled in or marked as void,deleted,or not applicable. One original signed copy of the
contract with attachments is to be given to the owner and the other kept by the contractor. Any
modification to the original contract must be in writing and agreed to by both parties. Contracted work
may not begin until both parties have received a fully executed copy of the contract,and the three day
rescission period has expired.
Accelerated Payments
A contractor may not demand payments in advance of the dates specified on the payment schedule in cases
where the homeowner deems him/herself to be financially insecure. However,in instances where a
contractor deems him/herself to be financially insecure,the contractor may require that the balance of funds
not yet due be placed in a joint escrow account as a prerequisite to continuing the contracted work.
Withdrawal of funds from said account would require the signatures of both parties.
