To our valued customers regarding the process of purchase and installation work.

1) How the Process of Purchase and Installation Works:

a. Select needed merchandise with a Dugan's Paint and Flooring associate.
b. Based on your estimate of the room's dimensions, we will estimate the total cost of your installation.
c. We will schedule a measurement appointment to verify the work and material required. After the measure, we will update your quote. Note: This amount can change due to unforeseen conditions with your installation. Every effort will be made to predict any problems that may occur with your job.
d. Your material will be ordered and a tentative installation date will be set after 1/2 deposit is received on your order. NOTE: The installation date can change based on availability of material from our suppliers. We will make every effort to eliminate any and all delays.
e. Once the merchandise is received, the sales associate will get with you within two (2) working days and confirm a date for the installation.
f. Full payment must be made at the time installation is complete.

2) Before Your Installation:

a. Empty all cabinets, entertainment centers, bookcases, closets, etc.
b. Move all breakables, such as lamps, vases, mirrors, wall hangings, antiques and other valuables.
c. Disconnect and remove all electronic equipment such as televisions, stereos and computers.
d. The building must be completely closed in, with outside windows, doors, and thresholds in place.
e. All wet trades (i.e. Drywall, Plaster) should be finished before installation.
f. Air conditioning, heating and ventilation systems must be operable.
g. Electricity and water must be provided in the work area.
h. Sub floor conditions: Dugan's cannot be held legally, financially or professionally responsible for the existing substrate conditions (i.e. excessive moisture content, high pH levels, uneven slab, existing flooring differences, etc.) or things that could directly or indirectly effect the new flooring performance.

3) During Your Installation:

a. The homeowner or an adult over the age of 18, with authority to make decisions about your installation, along with a Dugan's associate, must be present during the jobsite inspection and installation.
b. The expected installation time may vary depending on the size and scope of the project.
c. Many installations will cause inconvenience if you are living in the house.
d. Temperature on the site must be within 60-80 Degrees F.
e. Children and pets must be kept away from the work area.
f. It may be noisy due to equipment and tools being used during installation.
g. The adhesives used for installation can produce strong odors.
h. Cutting material, removing existing flooring and sub-floor preparation can create dust that can infiltrate other parts of your house. We will make every attempt to keep dust to a minimum. Dusting will be required by homeowner after installation.

4) After Your Installation:

a.. You may have to do touch-up painting after your installation.
b. You may need to change your air filters.
c. You will need to refer to the manufacturer's recommendations for maintenance of your installed product.

5) Other Installation Expectations:

a. If the new floor is substantially thicker than the old floor, doors may not swing clear. If so, you will have to replace your doors or hire a carpenter to trim them down.
b. Canceling appointments with installers or missing scheduled appointments will lead to additional charges.
c. If unforeseen labor is needed (i.e. repair damage from water or termites, electrical or plumbing problems, etc.), there will be additional charges. In some cases, this labor may not be available from Dugan's, so the customer must hire their own contractor.
