  • Late-fee cap: Texas statute Tex. Bus. & Com. Code §2.207; Tex. Fin. Code §302.002 caps interest on unpaid invoices at 1.5% per month. Spell out the rate in writing on every invoice and in your contract — courts won't enforce undisclosed fees.
  • Right-to-cancel notice: Customers in Texas get 72-hour cancellation rights on certain home-services contracts. Disclose this in your terms.

  • Glass material — billed by itemized.
  • Labor — billed by hour (~$80 default).
