Article 2: Formation of the Contract

3.2 Duration and Penalty: This prohibition applies for the entire duration of the contract and for a period of 12 months following its termination. In the event of a breach, the Client will automatically be liable for a fixed penalty of €15,000 per person concerned or, if this amount is higher, an amount corresponding to 6 months of average services, without prejudice to Nettoyex's right to prove greater damages.

Right of Suspension: In the event of non-payment of an invoice by its due date, Nettoyex reserves the right to immediately suspend all ongoing services without prior notice until full payment of the outstanding principal, interest, and fees.

Part 2: SPECIFIC CONDITIONS PER DIVISION
Article 7: Specificities of the NETTOYEX Division
General provisions: The following provisions apply exclusively to the cleaning and maintenance services carried out under the commercial name NETTOYEX. It is reminded that NETTOYEX is a trade name of SRL EVLer Group; therefore, all commitments made under this name legally bind SRL EVLer Group.
- 7.1 Access and Means: The Client agrees to provide access to the premises, as well as the necessary water and electricity free of charge. If access is impossible at the agreed time due to the Client's actions (non-exhaustive examples: forgetting the appointment, non-functional access codes or keys, unexpected presence of another trade blocking passage), the service will be charged at 100% of its initial amount. This charge is intended to cover travel expenses, staff immobilisation, and the company's loss of earnings.
- 7.2 Security: The Client must report any defects in the installations (e.g. poorly fixed electrical socket, unstable window) before the start of the service.
- 7.3 Late cancellation: Any cancellation or request for postponement less than 24 hours before the intervention will automatically incur a flat fee of €50.00.
7.4 Deposit and Supply Costs:
7.4.1 Cleaning services: A deposit of 30% of the total amount of the quote is required before the start of work for any end-of-site cleaning, restoration, or first intervention.
7.4.2 Product/Equipment Orders: For any order involving the supply of cleaning products, consumables (e.g. stock of paper, soap) or specific equipment of a significant amount (exceeding €300 excluding VAT or according to the offer), a deposit of 50% to 100% of the value of the goods may be required before the order is placed with our suppliers.
Validation: The execution of services or the order of goods will only commence upon the actual receipt of funds in the account of EVLer Group SRL.
- 7.5 Claims and Evidence: Any damage must be reported in writing within 24 calendar hours following the service. "Before/After" photos are used exclusively as proof of execution and mutual protection against disputes. If no report is made within this timeframe, the service is considered accepted without reservation and NETTOYEX disclaims any responsibility for damages reported later.
In the event of proven damage for which NETTOYEX is responsible, compensation will be provided through our Professional Liability insurance, after deducting any applicable excess. Defects observed in areas visited by third parties (e.g., building entrance hall, shared offices) will be subject to a fault assessment; no deterioration can be attributed to EVLer Group without irrefutable evidence. EVLer Group commits to reporting in good faith any incident occurring during its interventions. -
- 7.6 Textiles: NETTOYEX disclaims all responsibility for normal wear and tear or manufacturing defects of treated textiles (carpets, sofas).
- 7.7 Physical Security (Nettoyex): In the event of the handover of keys, badges, or access codes, EVLer Group commits to using them with due diligence. For optimal security, it is strongly recommended that the Client changes their access or security codes immediately after the service has been completed. EVLer Group disclaims any responsibility for incidents occurring after the return of access or the end of the contract.
7.8 Preliminary visit: The services are subject to a visit to the premises to establish an accurate offer. If the actual condition of the premises differs drastically from the initial description, NETTOYEX reserves the right to adjust the price or the timeframe.
7.9 Technical Means and Additional Work:
7.9.1 Equipment and Cleaning Products: Unless explicitly stated otherwise in the quote (e.g. "labour only" contract), NETTOYEX provides its own professional equipment and products.
Client's Provision: If the contract stipulates that the Client provides the equipment and products, these must be in perfect working order, comply with safety standards, and be available in sufficient quantities to allow for the complete execution of the mission. NETTOYEX disclaims any responsibility for poor results, breakdowns related to the equipment provided, or service interruptions due to a shortage of consumable products supplied by the Client.
Billing for equipment: The use of heavy or specific equipment (e.g. floor scrubber, cherry picker, carpet cleaner) or an exceptional consumption of products may incur an additional charge, as indicated in the commercial offer or the signed quote.
7.9.2 Additional work and supplies: Any task not included in the initial estimate requested on-site by the Client will be considered an additional charge. These interventions will be billed at the current hourly rate. Similarly, any supply of consumables not foreseen (e.g. replenishment of soap, toilet paper, specific bin bags) will be charged extra. These services will only be carried out subject to the availability of personnel and equipment.
7.10 Duration and Termination (Recurring Services)
- 7.10.1 One-off services: For single interventions (e.g. end of construction, post-disaster cleaning), the contract automatically ends after the service has been performed and the invoice has been paid in full.
7.10.2 Regular Services (Maintenance Contracts): Unless otherwise stated in the quotation, contracts for successive performance (weekly, monthly, etc.) are concluded for an indefinite duration.
Notice period: Either party may terminate the contract by giving written notice (by email with acknowledgment of receipt or by registered mail) of:
1 month if the contract has lasted less than a year.
3 months if the contract has lasted more than a year.
Termination indemnity: In the event of the Client's failure to comply with the notice period, they will be liable for a compensatory indemnity equivalent to the amount of the services that should have been performed until the end of the notice period.
- Priority of Article 6 (Termination for Fault): In the event of termination of the contract by NETTOYEX for one of the reasons of abuse or serious breach mentioned in Article 6 (notably in cases of insulting behaviour, harassment, or non-payment), the provisions for immediate termination by operation of law shall apply as a priority. In this situation, the Client remains fully liable for the compensatory notice period indemnity mentioned above, as a penalty clause, without prejudice to any potential additional damages.
7.11 VAT and Taxes: Unless otherwise stated, our prices are exclusive of taxes. For any building cleaning service performed for a client subject to VAT in Belgium and filing periodic returns, the reverse charge mechanism applies in accordance with Article 20 of Royal Decree No. 1. It is the client's responsibility to inform us of any change in their taxable status.
In this respect, it is understood that: Reverse charge. In the absence of a written objection within one month of receipt of the invoice, the customer is deemed to acknowledge that they are a taxable person required to file periodic returns.
