PLEASE READ THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF SALE CAREFULLY. BY PLACING AN ORDER FOR PRODUCT(S) THROUGH THE WEBSITE, YOU AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF SALE, AS WELL AS BEACON ROOFING SUPPLY CANADA COMPANY’S PRIVACY POLICY AND COOKIE NOTICE AND TERMS OF USE.
Unless otherwise expressly provided in writing signed by Beacon Roofing Supply Canada Company, or its relevant subsidiary or affiliate (collectively, "Seller") with respect to a particular sale, all sales of products ("Products") are made in accordance with, subject to, and expressly conditioned upon, the following Terms and Conditions of Sale ("TCS"):
1. ACCEPTANCE - Any quotation by Seller is intended as a current price listing, which may be changed pursuant to Section 2 below, as well as notice to the buyer ("Buyer") of the TCS. Such a quotation does not constitute an offer and shall not constitute Seller's acceptance or Buyer's order or confirmation of an offer to sell and/or deliver an item. Buyer's purchase order, oral or written, regardless of any contrary wording or terms, will constitute an offer to purchase Seller's Products pursuant to the TCS. To the extent Buyer has made an offer to purchase, it is expressly agreed that Seller's acceptance is expressly conditioned on Buyer's assent to the TCS. All Buyer's terms and conditions in addition to or in conflict with those contained herein are hereby rejected and will be void. Buyer's order confirmation and/or receipt of Products as acknowledged on the front of this form, shall constitute acceptance of the TCS. Buyer's objections, if any, to these TCS must be made in writing prior to the earlier of Buyer's submission of its purchase order to Seller or delivery of Product, whichever occurs first. Any amendments to these TCS as a result of Buyer's objections will only be binding on Seller if Seller has agreed to such modified terms in writing.
2. ADDITIONAL TERMS. The purchase and/or use of certain Products may be subject to additional terms and conditions (which may include license terms), and Buyer’s use of these Products is subject to Buyer’s acceptance of these additional terms. Unless otherwise provided by the additional terms and conditions applicable to the Products, those additional terms are hereby incorporated into these TCS. To the extent there is a conflict between these TCS and the terms and conditions of Seller for a specific Product, the latter shall have precedence with respect to your use of that specific Product.
3. PRICES - All prices published by Seller or quoted by Seller's representatives may be changed at any time without notice. All prices are subject to adjustment on account of specifications, quantities, shipment arrangements or other terms and conditions which are not part of the original price quotation. All prices shall be as specified by Seller or, if no price has been specified, shall be Seller's price in effect at the time of delivery. Prices are exclusive of all excise, sales, use and other taxes, duties and charges, imposed by any federal, provincial, municipal or other governmental authority, all of which taxes shall be paid by Buyer. If such taxes are not included on the invoice for such Products but are later charged to Seller, Seller may separately invoice Buyer for them at a later date..
4. TERMS OF PAYMENT - Unless otherwise expressly stated in writing, terms are net thirty (30) days. Seller reserves the right at any time to require full or partial payment in advance, or to revoke any credit previously extended, if in Seller's exclusive judgment, Buyer's financial condition does not warrant proceeding on the terms specified. Overdue payments shall be subject to finance charges computed at a periodic rate of 1 1/2% per month (18% per year) or the highest rate permitted by law, whichever is lower. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, in the event of Buyer's default on the terms stated herein, Buyer agrees to pay Seller all costs of collection including reasonable lawyer's fees. Amounts owed by Buyer with respect to which there is no dispute shall be paid without set off for any amounts which Buyer may claim are owed by Seller regardless of any other disputes which may exist. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, all returned checks are subject to a $40.00 charge for each occasion that such check is returned. No acceptance, deposit or banking of funds by Buyer shall constitute an accord and satisfaction, regardless of any notations such as payment in full placed on the check, remittance, or accompanying correspondence by Buyer. All prices are in Canadian Dollars (CAD), unless otherwise indicated.
5. DELIVERY - Unless otherwise specified, all sales are F.O.B. Seller's warehouse, and the time of delivery shall be the time when the Product is ready for pickup at that location by Buyer or by a common carrier for delivery to Buyer. Seller shall not be liable for any loss or damage resulting from any delay in delivery or failure to deliver which is due to any cause beyond Seller's control, including, without limitation, wars, terrorist attacks, acts of nature, unavailability of supplies or sources of energy, riots, fires, floods, epidemics, lockouts, strikes and slow downs, delays in delivery by our suppliers, or acts or omissions of Buyer. In the event of delay due to any such cause, time for delivery shall be extended for a period equal to the duration of the delay and Buyer shall not be entitled to refuse delivery or otherwise be relieved of any obligations as a result of the delay. If, because of any such event, Seller is unable to supply the total demand for the Products, Seller may allocate its available supply, without obligation to purchase similar Products from other sources, among itself and all of its customers, including those not under contract, on such basis as it determines to be equitable, exercising its sole and independent discretion. If, as a result of any such event, any scheduled delivery is delayed for a period in excess of five (5) weeks, Seller may, at its option and at its sole discretion, by written notice to Buyer, cancel that and all future deliveries without further liability or obligation of any kind. In the event Seller has space available and chooses to make accommodation in its sole discretion, Products on which delivery is delayed due to any cause within Buyer's control may be placed in storage by Seller with such storage costs charged to Buyer, provided, however, that Buyer shall remain liable for any insurable or other risk of loss. Buyer shall also be liable for all costs and expenses incurred by Seller in holding or storing Products for Buyer at Buyer's request. For online purchases, the date of delivery will depend on the shipping method chosen. Shipping options are described on the PRO+ platform at the time of placing an order. Time for delivery is an estimate only and it is not a condition of this agreement.
6. SHIPMENT AND ACCEPTANCE OF PRODUCTS - Seller shall not be responsible for any freight, transportation, insurance, shipping, storage, handling, demurrage or similar charge. Buyer is conclusively presumed to have inspected and accepted the Products unless Buyer notifies Seller in writing of incorrect, unspecified or missing Product, or other basis for nonacceptance of Product within one business day following Buyer's receipt or, in the event of latent defects, within one business day following the date when Buyer should have discovered such defects exercising reasonable due diligence. Unless specific written instructions to the contrary are supplied by Buyer and accepted by Seller, methods and routes of shipment will be selected by Seller, but Seller will not assume any liability in connection with shipment nor be deemed a common carrier or its agent. All shipments will be insured at Buyer's expense and made at Buyer's risk, and Buyer shall be responsible for making all claims with carriers, insurers, warehousemen and others for misdelivery, non-delivery, loss, damage or delay. Shipping and/or completion dates are approximate and are based on prompt receipt of all necessary information and approvals from Buyer. Unless Buyer notifies Seller in writing that an earlier shipment is not acceptable, Seller may ship the Products prior to any contract shipping date.
7. TITLE AND RISK OF LOSS - Subject to Paragraph 5 and to Seller's right to stop delivery of Products in transit, title to and risk of loss for Products shall pass to Buyer upon the earlier of delivery to Buyer, as defined herein, or to a common carrier for shipment to Buyer.
8. SECURITY INTEREST - As security for the full and prompt payment of all amounts and obligations owing by Buyer to Seller hereunder, Buyer grants to Seller, and Seller hereby retains, a security interest and, as applicable, a hypothec in the principal amount of the purchase price of the Products supplier by Seller to Buyer, in all Products supplied by Seller to Buyer hereunder and all proceeds thereof (collectively "Collateral"). Such security interest/hypothec is and will continue to be a first-priority security interest in the Collateral whether by virtue of the priority accorded purchase-money security interests under applicable law or otherwise. Buyer will take all actions Seller deems necessary or desirable to perfect such security interest/hypothec and maintain its first priority. Buyer irrevocably authorizes Seller to file financing statements and amendments thereto in such places as Seller deems necessary or desirable (without Buyer's signature where permitted by applicable law). Upon request of Seller, Buyer will execute and deliver to Seller a separate security agreement under which Buyer grants to Seller a security interest in the Collateral, and any such separate security agreement shall control. If the Products will be inventory in Buyer's hands, Buyer agrees that Seller may notify others claiming security interests in Buyer's inventory of Seller's purchase-money security interest prior to supplying any Products to Buyer. If Buyer fails to pay or perform when due any amount or obligation owing to Seller hereunder or if Buyer becomes insolvent, or is subject to any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding, then Seller may declare all amounts and obligations owing to Seller hereunder immediately due and payable and Seller shall have the rights and remedies of a secured party under applicable law.
9. CANCELLATIONS AND RETURNS - Orders which have been accepted may be cancelled only with Seller's prior written consent and upon terms that will fully indemnify Seller against loss. Products are not in any event to be returned to Seller for credit without prior written authorization, and such returns are subject to a 20% shipping and handling charge.
10. INSTALLATION - Seller assumes no obligation to install any Products sold or to place them in working order at any location, property or project.
11. SPECIFICATIONS - All Products are subject to Seller's standard tolerances for specifications. Seller reserves the right to make substitutions and modifications in the specifications of any Products provided that such substitutions or modifications do not materially affect the performance of the Products or the purpose for which they are intended to be used. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Seller expressly disclaims any and all responsibility for design and/or specification of the Products or the buildings into which they may be incorporated.
12. LIMITATION OF WARRANTIES – SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF CERTAIN WARRANTIES. A PORTION OR ALL OF THE FOLLOWING EXCLUSIONS OR LIMITATIONS MAY THEREFORE NOT APPLY TO YOU.
All claims for non-conforming or defective Products must be made in writing within one business day after delivery to Buyer, and any claims not made within that period shall be deemed waived and released. Seller's sole responsibility with respect to such claims shall be to assist Buyer with the processing of any manufacturer's warranty claims with the manufacturer of the Products. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, in no event shall Seller be liable either for any labour incurred to repair, remedy or install any replacement Products or for any lost profits, loss of good will, or any special, indirect, incidental, consequential or punitive damages due to any cause whatsoever. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, no suit or action shall be brought against Seller more than one year after any related cause of action has accrued. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE FOREGOING CONSTITUTES SELLER'S SOLE LIABILITY AND BUYER'S SOLE REMEDY WITH RESPECT TO PRODUCTS SOLD BY SELLER AND THERE ARE NO WARRANTIES WHICH EXTEND BEYOND THE DESCRIPTION ON THE FACE HEREOF. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, SELLER DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, REPRESENTATIONS AND CONDITIONS, ORAL, EXPRESS, IMPLIED, LEGAL OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, QUALITY, DURABILITY, TITLE OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, BUYER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT SELLER IS NOT LIABLE FOR ANY LOST PROFITS, LOSS OF GOOD WILL, OR ANY SPECIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY WARRANTIES ARISING FROM COURSE OF DEALING OR USAGE OF TRADE.
13. RELEASE AND DELIVERY WAIVER – SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE RELEASE OR LIMITATION OF LIABILITY FOR CERTAIN TYPES OF DAMAGES. A PORTION OR ALL OF THE FOLLOWING RELEASES OR LIMITATIONS MAY THEREFORE NOT APPLY TO YOU.
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, as to any Products sold and/or delivered hereunder, Buyer releases Seller from any liability arising hereunder for personal injuries, known or unknown, and damage to property real or personal caused by or arising from the Products sold and/or delivered hereunder and agrees not to sue Seller under any theory of strict liability or tort, negligence, extra-contractual liability, contract or otherwise for any claim or demand for personal injuries and property damage which in any manner arises out of the sale, use, application, transportation or otherwise of the Products sold and/or delivered hereunder. The foregoing disclaimers of warranty and disclaimer of liability shall be binding upon Buyer and any successors in title, project owners, product end-users, assigns, transferees, and other third parties. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, in connection with the delivery of any Products, Seller expressly disclaims responsibility for damage to driveways, lawns, sprinkler systems, gardens, septic tanks, drainfields and/or existing landscaping as a result of job site deliveries. By executing a delivery ticket and/or accepting Product delivery, the property owner, contractor, subcontractors, and suppliers, acknowledge that they are authorized both to accept delivery and release Buyer from and against any damage to any of their property caused by the weight of any truck, rooftop delivery operations or otherwise. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Buyer hereby waives any and all claims for damages which may be made during the delivery of Seller's Products.
14. INDEMNIFICATION - Buyer hereby agrees to indemnify and hold Seller harmless from any and all property damages or personal injury claims, awards or judgments including all fines, penalties and laywers' fees of any kind arising from Seller's sale and/or delivery of the Products under this agreement. Buyer's obligation to indemnify Seller includes, without limitation, indemnification of Buyer against third party claims relating to property damage or personal injury incident to the delivery, staging or storage of any Products onto or in driveways, parking lots, roofs, buildings or other properties.
15. CONSTRUCTION AND MECHANIC'S LIENS - Buyer shall furnish to Seller, upon request, all information necessary and/or relevant for Seller to evaluate, give notice of, or enforce lien rights, and any other statutorily required information necessary to enable Seller to enforce a lien. Seller's request for this information shall be construed to create a duty on the part of Buyer to Seller to distribute, publish and supplement this information. It is agreed by Buyer, that should Buyer fail to provide information necessary for Seller to perfect its lien rights, Buyer herby waives any defenses, substantive or procedural, related to Buyer's failure to provide to Seller the requested lien information. In the event Buyer fails to provide such information, Buyer agrees to pay Seller's legal fees and costs should litigation occur and subsequently results in Seller being unable to enforce lien rights due to Buyer's failure to perform hereunder. To further secure payment of this invoice, Seller expressly reserves its rights to deliver any preliminary notices of lien or identification and/or to record or deliver any statutorily required notices of lien in order to create, perfect and/or enforce Seller's construction or mechanic's lien rights to secure payment for Products sold to Buyer.
16. GOVERNING LAW – To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, these TCS are governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the Province of Ontario and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein, without reference to conflict of laws principles. Seller and Buyer attorn to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the Province of Ontario. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods shall not apply to the Contract.

If any provision or provisions of these TCS shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, such provision shall be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law and the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. Seller's failure to enforce any right under any provision of these TCS shall not be deemed a waiver of the right to enforce that provision in the future.
