When must a consumer receive a complete copy of the Home Improvement contract?

  1. Once the project starts

  2. At the time of signing and before any work is done

  3. Only upon request after the project is finished

  4. Within a week after the contract signing

The correct answer is: At the time of signing and before any work is done

A consumer must receive a complete copy of the Home Improvement contract at the time of signing and before any work is done to ensure transparency and protect their rights. This practice is grounded in consumer protection laws designed to inform the homeowner clearly about the terms of the agreement, including the scope of work, costs, and timelines. Providing a complete copy at this point establishes a clear understanding of the obligations on both sides and helps prevent misunderstandings or disputes later on. Receiving the contract at this time allows consumers to review all the terms while they are still fresh in their minds, giving them the opportunity to ask questions or negotiate terms before any obligations are incurred. This ensures that consumers are well-informed and have given their consent based on a full understanding of the agreement.
