PAINTING CANCELLATION POLICY
================================================================

This cancellation policy applies to bookings with [YOUR BUSINESS NAME] for painting work. It explains the notice, fees and refunds if a booking is changed or cancelled.
By booking, the client agrees to this policy. It works alongside any signed service agreement.

1. NOTICE PERIOD
Please give at least [3 DAYS] before the start date to cancel or reschedule.

2. CANCELLATION FEES
Cancel [3+ DAYS] before the start date for a refund of any deposit not yet spent on paint or materials. Within [3 DAYS], the deposit covers materials and the reserved slot. Once painting has started, you pay for the work done to date.

3. RESCHEDULING
A booking may be rescheduled once with the notice above, subject to availability. A second change, or a short-notice change, may be treated as a cancellation.

4. NO-SHOWS AND LATE CANCELLATIONS
A no-show, or a cancellation with less than [SHORT NOTICE], is charged in full.

5. IF WE HAVE TO CANCEL
If [YOUR BUSINESS NAME] has to cancel, the client is offered the next available date or a full refund of any deposit.

Text in [BRACKETS] is for you to fill in. This policy is a general template, not legal advice. A cancellation policy is most enforceable when the client accepts it before booking, and any mandatory refund or consumer rules depend on your jurisdiction — have it reviewed and make sure clients agree to it up front.
