Terms and conditions - plans purchase

1. Purchase and Delivery Conditions

Unless otherwise specified, catalog plans ordered without modifications are delivered within 10 business days.

Belvedair may modify the plans at your request. Any modifications will be billed based on hours worked at a rate of $95/hour and must be paid before delivery of the plans. Although Belvedair can provide you with an estimate of the time required to complete the modifications you request, actual hours worked may vary, and you will only be billed for the actual hours worked, regardless of the estimate provided.

If you request modifications, delivery times may vary: this is a creative, non-linear process, and deadlines vary depending on the modifications required and the number of versions required to meet your expectations. Delivery time will be 15 business days after final client approval.

2. Inclusions

Architectural plans are delivered as a single PDF file. One floor plan per floor.

3. Exclusions

Only inclusions will be provided. The list of exclusions below is not exhaustive and is provided only to clarify inclusions.

4. Limitation of Liability

It is the client's responsibility to verify that the project they intend to carry out is feasible and compliant with regulations before purchasing the plan.

During the work, it is the builder's responsibility to ensure compliance with the safety codes and regulations in effect on the site.

For work involving the structure or foundations, it is the builder's responsibility to perform or have performed the load calculations used in the design of these structures.

For work requiring a permit, Belvedair can only provide signed plans sealed by a technologist for buildings not covered by the Architects Act, such as detached single-family homes or buildings with fewer than three stories above ground.

5. License to Use the Plans

The documents provided by Belvedair as part of this service remain Belvedair’s intellectual property.

For plans and 3D models, if applicable, Belvedair hereby grants the client a license to use them for the construction of a single project as identified in the form below (project address and/or lot number). Any reproduction or derivative work is prohibited without written approval from Belvedair.

Belvedair reserves the right to use the information contained in these documents for its own business purposes, provided that it does not contain any information specific to the client.

6. 3D Illustration

The images associated with the model and presented on the Belvedair website are illustrations. The role of 3D models is to provide visual support and not to be an exact representation of reality.

7. Cancellation / Refund

The sale of the catalog plan is confirmed and final upon completion of payment and will not be subject to any refund.

If you wish to cancel while modifications are in progress, you will be billed for the hours actually worked prior to your cancellation request. If the amount to be invoiced for these hours is less than the deposit you paid for the modifications, the difference will be refunded to you. Conversely, if the amount to be invoiced for these hours worked exceeds the deposit you paid, you will be invoiced for the difference and must pay the invoice upon receipt.

Collection and legal fees may be charged in the event of payment refusal by the client.

8. Default Language

The language of the various deliverables or exchanges (meetings, communications, emails) is French by default but can be offered in English upon request.

9. Dispute Resolution

In the event of a dispute or conflict that cannot be resolved by mutual agreement, the competent courts are those of Montreal, Quebec.
