Risks that can be hidden in this document

High late-fee rates

Short dispute windows

Some invoices require disputes to be raised within 5 days — after that you’ve accepted all charges.

Automatic lien rights

Service providers may have automatic lien rights on your property if you don’t pay on time.

Hidden surcharges

Processing fees, fuel surcharges, or admin fees added after quote — if you pay, you’ve accepted them.
