Bill > AB1327

This bill modifies requirements for home improvement and home solicitation contracts in California, focusing on consumer protection and cancellation rights. The bill requires contractors to include an email address on home improvement contracts where customers can send a notice of cancellation, and mandates that contractors provide a telephone number to help buyers locate and complete the cancellation form. The bill expands the existing three-day cancellation right by requiring contractors to provide a method for email cancellation, and maintains special provisions for senior citizens and contracts related to disaster repairs, which have longer cancellation periods (five or seven business days, respectively). Additionally, the bill allows buyers to file a complaint with the Contractors State License Board if a notice of cancellation is not properly included in a home improvement contract. The changes aim to provide consumers with clearer, more accessible ways to cancel home improvement and solicitation contracts, giving them more flexibility and protection when entering into such agreements.
