Scope of Work
Define tasks in detail, including frame repair, padding, trim, and whether pattern matching or directional nap is required; attach photos or sketches as exhibits for clarity.
A clear Upholstery Service Agreement reduces misunderstandings, supports billing and insurance claims, and creates evidence of consent and terms. Proper execution—whether paper or electronic—helps enforce rights under the ESIGN Act (15 U.S.C. ch. 96) and applicable state UETA laws.
A variety of users need this agreement to document upholstery engagements and manage risk.
Tailor the agreement text and signatory fields to match who pays, who approves changes, and who accepts delivery.
Owner or authorized manager of the upholstery business. Signs to accept scope, set schedules, allocate materials, and agree to warranty and liability limits on behalf of the service provider.
Individual or organization paying for services (homeowner, property manager, business buyer). Signs to confirm dimensions, fabric choices, payment schedule, and acceptance criteria for completed work.

Define tasks in detail, including frame repair, padding, trim, and whether pattern matching or directional nap is required; attach photos or sketches as exhibits for clarity.
