TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR HOME SUBSCRIPTIONS

These Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) apply to the MVR HomeCare subscription service, which is owned and operated by:

 

MVR Rivermount Construction Ltd (“Company”, “we”, “us”)

By enrolling in any MVR HomeCare subscription plan (Bronze, Silver, or Gold), you agree to comply with these Terms.

 

  1. Commencement of Services

1.1 HomeCare subscription services begin 2 weeks after the initial subscription payment.
1.2 No repair visits or call-outs can be used within the 14-day activation period.

      (A short activation period allows us to onboard new members, verify property details and prevent misuse, ensuring fair and reliable service for all subscribers).

 

  1. Subscription Plans

2.1 Subscription options include Bronze, Silver, and Gold plans.
2.2 Plans are billed every 4 weeks in advance.
2.3 Subscriptions can be cancelled at any time in accordance with Section 10 (Cancellation & Refunds).
2.4 Prices are subject to VAT where applicable.
2.5 All active subscribers receive a Subscription Card for verification of their plan and benefits during service visits.
2.6 Every labour attendance is counted as one visit, regardless of the work type or size.

 

  1. Definitions & Interpretation

3.1 “Activation Period” means the 14-day period after initial payment during which no repair visits or call-outs may be used.
3.2 “Property” means the single residential address registered to the Client under the subscription.
3.3 “Visit” means one attendance at the Property by our labour staff; each attendance counts as one Visit regardless of the number or complexity of tasks carried out.
3.4 “Booking Window” means the scheduled appointment slot communicated to you at the time of booking.
3.5 “Small to Medium Repairs” means minor household maintenance and repairs that are:

(a) non-structural, non-specialist, and safe to perform without specialist certification; and

(b) reasonably capable of being completed within the applicable time limits in Section 16; and

(c) not excluded by Section 6 (Exclusions).
Examples (non-exhaustive) may include minor adjustments, patch repairs, resealing,

 

small joinery fixes, basic fixture refits, and similar maintenance tasks subject always to exclusions and safety.

3.6 “Fair Usage” means use of the subscription in a reasonable manner for routine household maintenance, and not in a way that is excessive, abusive, or inconsistent with a monthly plan. Fair Usage may be exceeded where, in our reasonable opinion, there are repeated non-qualifying requests, repeated misuse, repeated missed appointments, suspected multi-property use, or attempts to bundle extensive work beyond “Small to Medium Repairs.” Where Fair Usage is exceeded, we may: (i) require separate quotation, (ii) charge discounted subscriber rates for additional visits/time, or (iii) suspend/terminate under Section 22.

 

  1. Scope of Services

4.1 Services include labour-only repair work for Small to Medium Repairs.
4.2 Materials, parts, fixtures, consumables, or external items are not included and must be supplied or paid for by you.
4.3 Visits and service levels vary according to subscription type.
4.4 Weekend availability applies across all plans (subject to schedule and availability).

  3. No rollover of unused visits.
  4. No job can continue for 2 consecutive working days. If a job cannot be completed within one day, remaining labour will be billed separately.
  5. Additional visits charged at Silver subscriber rates.

5.3 Gold Plan

  1. 4 Visits per month (Fair Usage applies).
  2. Highest priority scheduling.
  3. No rollover of unused visits.
  4. No job can continue for 2 consecutive working days. If a job cannot be completed within one day, remaining labour will be billed separately.

  1. Fair Usage

7.1 Fair Usage applies to prevent excessive or unreasonable call-out requests.
7.2 Repeated misuse may result in plan adjustment, suspension, or cancellation.

  1. Appointments & Access

8.2 If a Visit is booked but you are unavailable, fail to provide access, or cancel after the Booking Window has begun, the Visit will be recorded as a missed appointment.
8.3 A missed appointment results in the full Visit being counted under your subscription allowance.
8.4 Any replacement visit may be charged at the applicable subscriber rate.
8.5 Repeated missed appointments may lead to temporary suspension of booking privileges or cancellation of the subscription at our discretion.

 

  1. Payment & Auto-Debit Policy

9.1 All subscription plans operate on a 4 weekly billing cycle (28 Days) from the date of activation.
9.2 By subscribing, you agree to automatic debit (auto-debit) from your selected payment method (debit/credit card or approved bank payment systems).
9.3 The auto-debit renewal will be processed automatically every 28 days unless cancelled before the next billing date (see Section 10).
9.4 If an auto-debit payment fails due to insufficient funds, expired card, or banking restrictions:

  1. we may re-attempt payment within 24 hours; and
  2. if still unsuccessful, services may be paused until payment is completed.

 

9.5 Any service requested while the subscription is unpaid/overdue may be charged at the non-subscriber call-out rate.
9.6 You are responsible for ensuring payment details remain valid and up to date.

 

  1. Cancellation & Refunds (Replacement)

10.1 Statutory Cooling-Off Right (Consumer Contracts Regulations)

If you subscribe to MVR HomeCare online, by phone, or through any distance selling method, you have the legal right to cancel your subscription within 14 days of the initial purchase without giving any reason.

If you cancel within this 14-day cooling-off period and have not requested or used any services, you will receive a full refund of any subscription payments made.

If you request a repair visit or service to begin during the cooling-off period, you acknowledge that the cooling-off right may be reduced or lost once services have been performed.

To exercise your cooling-off right, you must notify us in writing via email or our booking system before the 14-day period expires.

Refunds will be processed within 14 days of receiving your cancellation notice.

10.2 How to cancel: You may cancel at any time via our booking system/customer support. Cancellation should be submitted at least 24 hours before your next scheduled auto-debit date to avoid renewal being taken.
10.3 Late cancellation: If a cancellation request is made within 24 hours of the next auto-debit date, the system may still process the renewal. If it does, your subscription will continue until the end of that renewed billing cycle.
10.4 End of access: After you cancel, subscription benefits remain available until the end of the current paid billing cycle, after which no further Visits, call-outs, or labour benefits will be provided.
10.5 Refunds: Subscription fees are not refundable for unused visits or change of mind. However, nothing in these Terms limits any refund you may be entitled to where required by law (for example, if we fail to provide the service with reasonable care and skill).

 

  1. Liability & Damage Policy

11.1 All labour and repair work is carried out with reasonable care and skill.
11.2 We and our labour staff are not responsible for pre-existing issues, structural defects, unsafe installations, or faults caused by age, wear and tear, or poor maintenance of the property/appliances. We always aim to help find practical solutions and will advise on next steps where issues fall outside the subscription.
11.3 If any appliance, fixture, or equipment becomes damaged, breaks, or stops functioning during/after service due to natural wear and tear, age, internal fault, or pre-existing weakness, we are not liable.

corrosion, misuse, or wear-and-tear deterioration.

12.2 You must maintain a safe environment for work to take place.
