Before You Enter into a Home Improvement Contract

Both parties to a contract must give their consent, which must be true and freely given. If one party's consent was obtained through fraud (deception or trickery), the contract can be canceled by the other party.

A contract can also be canceled if it is signed under duress or undue influence. Examples of duress are threats of or actual physical harm. Undue influence occurs when a person does not freely exercise his or her own free will as a result of another person's influence.
