Unless explicitly stated otherwise, all time-based charges (including hourly or per-minute rates) apply per individual worker, not per crew.

3. Property Access and Damage


Site Access
Clients must provide accurate information regarding gate widths and access to work areas. 606 Property Services is not responsible for limitations or delays caused by inaccurate or missing access information. If access is blocked (e.g., locked gates, obstacles), the full service fee will still apply.

Temporary Removals and Obstructions
If vegetation, pavers, artificial turf, or similar features must be temporarily relocated, 606 Property Services will make a reasonable effort to restore them. However, changes requiring additional materials or labor may result in extra charges.


Parking Fees
If adequate parking is not provided and made clear prior to service, any parking tickets or fees incurred during work will be billed to the client.


4. Scope of Work by Service Type


Lawn Maintenance

  • Grass over 6" may incur additional fees.

  • Bagging clippings and leaf removal is not included unless explicitly agreed upon.

  • Recurring service pricing does not apply to one-time or ad hoc lawn services.

Bush and Tree Trimming
Crews are granted reasonable discretion in shaping and trimming. No discounts or refunds will be issued for minor aesthetic differences unless clear prior instructions were given.


Planting Services

  • Plants, trees, and shrubs installed by 606 Property Services are not warrantied post-installation.

  • A $100 plant selection fee applies for nursery trips.

Weeding and Garden Cleanups
606 Property Services will perform weed removal and garden cleanup services to a reasonably thorough standard, including pulling weeds from the roots where practicable, in order to improve the overall appearance of the property. Due to the nature of plant growth and environmental conditions, complete removal of every weed is not possible, and some regrowth or isolated remaining weeds may occur. Minor or incidental missed weeds shall not constitute incomplete performance and will not warrant additional service calls. 606 Property Services shall not be liable for the removal of plants that could reasonably be mistaken for weeds or overgrowth. The Client is responsible for informing the project manager in writing of any sensitive, valuable, or special plants prior to the commencement of work.


Tree, Shrub, and Stump Removal

5. Winter Services


Holiday Lighting Protection Policy


Lighting Protection covers only installation-related issues that cause major outages (such as full sections losing power). It does not cover individual bulbs, normal wear-and-tear, or manufacturer issues with pre-lit garland, wreaths, or décor. All other service calls are billed at our standard trip charge + labor.


Holiday Lighting Service Access & Safety Limitations

 Holiday lighting service calls are subject to site accessibility and safe working conditions. Contractor reserves the right to delay, reschedule, or decline any installation, repair, or maintenance service if, in Contractor’s sole judgment, conditions are unsafe or inaccessible, including but not limited to snow or ice accumulation, icy surfaces, wet or frozen roofs, high winds, steep rooflines, blocked access points, or other hazardous conditions.


 Contractor will not perform work on roofs or elevated surfaces when conditions are deemed unsafe. In such cases, Contractor will make reasonable, good-faith efforts to perform repairs from accessible locations or return when conditions improve. Customer acknowledges that certain repairs may not be possible until safe access is available.


 Contractor shall not be liable for outages, delays, or service interruptions resulting from unsafe conditions, weather-related limitations, or restricted access beyond Contractor’s control.


Storage & Ownership of Lights. Contractor will store all Lights for Customer at the storage rate listed in this Agreement. All Lights remain the exclusive property of Contractor. Customer acknowledges that the storage fee covers seasonal storage, handling, testing, and organization of the Lights but does not grant Customer ownership. Contractor will maintain the Lights in good working order and replace defective bulbs or wire at its discretion.


Holiday Lighting – Cancellation, Inventory & Scheduling Fees


Cancellation During Peak Season.

Holiday lighting services are scheduled during a limited seasonal window. If Customer cancels, postpones, or materially changes a holiday lighting installation after approval or scheduling, Company reserves the right to charge a cancellation and administrative fee.


Covered Costs.

 Cancellation and related fees may include, but are not limited to, recovery of costs associated with:


  • Administrative and scheduling time
  • Lost or displaced installation slots during the limited peak season
  • Design, layout planning, measurements, and pre-installation preparation
  • Ordering, receiving, staging, testing, labeling, and handling of materials
  • Custom-ordered, specialty, or non-returnable items
  • Restocking or inventory handling where applicable


Non-Refundable Materials.

Any custom-ordered, specialty, or non-returnable materials are non-refundable once ordered, regardless of cancellation timing.


Timing of Cancellation.

Cancellations occurring closer to the scheduled installation date may result in higher fees due to increased preparation, inventory commitment, and loss of seasonal capacity.


Good-Faith Assessment.

All cancellation-related fees will be assessed in good faith and reflect actual costs incurred and operational impacts resulting from the cancellation.


Snow Clearing
Standard snow removal includes:

  • Public sidewalk in front of residence

  • One front stair path (up to 8 steps)

  • Accessible gangways and paths to back entrances (if unobstructed)

All surfaces must be free of foreign objects. Hidden items that damage equipment (e.g., chains, dog leads, debris) may result in additional repair or labor fees.


Snow Clearing Services.
 Snow clearing includes clearing driveways, walkways, gangways, and steps. Service begins when snowfall reaches two inches (2"). Annual contracts include snow clearing until (i) the total seasonal snowfall accumulation reaches fifty inches (50"), or (ii) the Property has received snow clearing services equal in value to twelve (12) visits billed at the standard per-push rate, whichever occurs first.


Exceeding Annual Limits.
 Once the annual term limits described above have been exceeded, snow clearing will be billed on a per-visit basis. Each visit from two inches (2") up to four inches (4") of snowfall will be billed at a rate equal to one-ninth (1/9) of the Client’s annual contract price. At four inches (4"), the per-visit rate shall double. For each additional inch (1") of snowfall above four inches (4"), an incremental charge equal to one-third (1/3) of the flat per-visit rate will apply. Snowfalls exceeding four inches typically occur two to four (2–4) times per season.


Salting and Ice Melt

  • Standard rock salt is used unless otherwise agreed.

  • Salting-only services are billed at the same rate as full snow clearing, plus material costs.

  • The snow clearing rate is considered the base trip charge for any salting or melting services.


Ice Services Exclusion.
Ice removal, ice chipping, and ice melt application are not included in standard snow clearing services unless expressly specified in the Scope of Work or in a separate written agreement. The Company does not guarantee the prevention or elimination of ice buildup.


Terminology; No Snow Hauling.
For purposes of this Agreement, the terms “snow clearing” and “snow removal” may be used interchangeably and shall both refer solely to clearing snow from driveways, walkways, gangways, and steps. Under no circumstances does the Company haul, remove, or transport snow off the Property. All services are limited to clearing snow to designated on-site areas only.



7. De-Icing Materials & Snow-Removal Equipment; Disclaimer.

  (a)Use of Materials. Contractor may use salt, ice melt, calcium chloride, magnesium chloride, or similar de-icing agents as part of the Services unless Customer requests otherwise in writing.
  (b)Customer Acknowledgment. Customer acknowledges that salt, ice melt, de-icing materials, shovels, and snow-removal equipment can cause damage to concrete, pavers, asphalt, masonry, metal, wood, landscaping, and other surfaces.
  (c)Limitation of Liability. Contractor is not responsible for any damage, deterioration, staining, spalling, scraping, cracking, corrosion, or wear resulting from the use of materials or equipment, nor for any pre-existing or underlying structural deficiencies. Contractor is further not responsible for damage caused by debris, objects, or materials concealed in or beneath snow or ice, including but not limited to items propelled or displaced by snow blowers or other snow-clearing equipment, or for any resulting damage to vehicles, structures, landscaping, personal property, or other items located on or near the serviced property.
  (d)Alternative Products. If Customer declines the use of salt or ice melt, Contractor is not responsible for slippery conditions or incomplete snow/ice removal.


6. Completion of Work and Dispute Resolution

7. Payments

  • 1/3 deposit prior to project start

  • 1/3 payment before materials are delivered

  • Final 1/3 upon completion of work

Custom payment terms may be negotiated in writing on a per-project basis.
