Terms of Service

1. About These Terms

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of https://veymarkcivil.site (the “Website”) and any civil engineering and construction services supplied by Veymark Civil Pty Ltd (ABN 87 702 571 908) (“Veymark Civil”, “we”, “us” or “our”). By accessing the Website, requesting a quotation, or engaging our services, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree with these Terms, please do not use the Website or engage our services.

2. Our Services

Veymark Civil provides civil engineering and construction services throughout Perth and greater Western Australia, including earthworks and bulk excavation, road and pavement construction, stormwater drainage and utility installations, subdivisions and site works, concrete structures, and related plant and labour hire. The precise scope, specifications, program of works and price for any project are set out in a written quotation and construction contract accepted by both parties. Where a signed contract conflicts with these Terms, the contract prevails to the extent of the inconsistency.

3. Quotations and Estimates

Quotations issued by Veymark Civil are valid for thirty (30) days from the date of issue unless otherwise stated in writing. Estimates, budget figures and preliminary advice provided before a site inspection or detailed design are indicative only and do not constitute an offer. All prices are quoted in Australian dollars and, unless expressly stated otherwise, exclude GST. Quotations are prepared on the basis of information provided by you and conditions reasonably ascertainable at the time of inspection. Latent ground conditions, rock, contaminated or saturated soils, concealed services, and variations requested by you or directed by authorities may result in adjusted costs.

4. Engagements, Contracts and Variations

A project engagement is formed when you accept our written quotation or execute a construction contract with us. Scope changes, variations, extensions of time and claims arising from latent conditions must be agreed in writing in accordance with the contract. Veymark Civil cannot be held responsible for the cost of work performed on the basis of unconfirmed verbal instructions.

5. Payment Terms

Invoices and progress claims are payable within the period stated in the applicable contract or, where no period is stated, within fourteen (14) days of issue. We may suspend performance where payment is overdue, to the extent permitted by law and the contract, and overdue amounts may accrue interest and reasonable recovery costs. Rights and obligations under Western Australia’s security of payment legislation, including the Building and Construction Industry (Security of Payment) Act 2021 (WA), apply as set out in your contract.

6. Site Access, Safety and Approvals

Unless expressly allocated to us in the contract, you are responsible for obtaining and maintaining all approvals, permits and licences required for the works, including local government, Main Roads WA, Western Power and Water Corporation clearances, and for providing us with safe and unimpeded access to the site. Before any excavation commences, service locations must be confirmed through Before You Dig Australia (BYDA). All works are carried out in accordance with the Work Health and Safety Act 2020 (WA) and applicable codes of practice.

7. Australian Consumer Law Guarantees

Nothing in these Terms excludes, restricts or modifies any consumer guarantee, right or remedy conferred by the Australian Consumer Law (Schedule 2 of the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth)) or any other applicable law that cannot lawfully be excluded. Our services come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law, including guarantees that services will be rendered with due care and skill, will be fit for any purpose made known to us, and will be supplied within a reasonable time. Goods and materials supplied in connection with our services also come with guarantees that cannot be excluded. If we fail to comply with a consumer guarantee, you may be entitled to remedies including resupply of the services or compensation for reasonably foreseeable loss or damage, as set out in the Australian Consumer Law.

8. Liability

To the extent permitted by law, and subject to the consumer guarantees described in clause 7: our services and any materials supplied in connection with them are not of a kind ordinarily acquired for personal, domestic or household purposes, and where the Australian Consumer Law permits, our liability for a failure to comply with a consumer guarantee may be limited to supplying the services again or the cost of having the services supplied again. We are not liable for indirect, special or consequential loss, including loss of profit, revenue or opportunity, and we are not liable for delay or defect caused by site conditions not reasonably ascertainable at the time of quotation, weather, or the acts, omissions or instructions of the client, their consultants or any authority. Nothing in this clause limits rights that cannot lawfully be limited.

Affected obligations are suspended to the extent necessary, and we will notify you and use reasonable endeavours to mitigate the delay.

13. Privacy

Your privacy is important to us. Personal information collected through the Website or in the course of providing services is handled in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

The parties must first attempt to resolve any dispute in good faith by written notice and discussion between senior representatives. If the dispute is not resolved within twenty-eight (28) days, the parties may agree to mediation before commencing proceedings, except where urgent injunctive relief is required. This clause does not prevent either party from exercising rights available under security of payment legislation.

15. Governing Law and Jurisdiction

These Terms and any contract for our services are governed by the laws of Western Australia, and the parties submit to the jurisdiction of the courts of Western Australia and the Commonwealth of Australia.
