The law already applies to you. Now your software knows it too.
Door-to-door sales rules, texting consent law, incident documentation — the obligations exist whether or not your tools help. FieldLane is the first field service platform where they're built in.
The 3-day right to cancel, done automatically
Under the FTC's cooling-off rule, many home-repair sales come with a 3-day right to cancel — and you're required to tell the customer, in writing, with a cancellation form. Most contractors have never once done this. FieldLane detects when the rule applies and sends the notice and form with the approval confirmation.
- Automatic detection on qualifying approvals
- Notice + cancellation form, sent by text and email with a PDF
- Customer can cancel online or by replying CANCEL — and the record updates

Choose how strict to be
Warn-only mode keeps you informed. Enforce mode physically blocks work from starting inside the cancellation window — with two honest escape hatches: a genuine-emergency waiver (the customer signs it, and only on real emergency work), and an owner override that accepts the risk explicitly without taking away the customer's right to cancel.
- Warn or enforce — your call, per business
- Emergency waiver, only where the law allows it
- Owner override with a permanent audit entry

Texting that won't put you in a lawsuit
TCPA suits against trade businesses are climbing — one HVAC company settled for over $3.8M in 2025. FieldLane treats every text as a compliance event: per-contact consent, automatic STOP/START handling, quiet hours, and a strict split between service messages and marketing.
- Consent tracked per person, per message type
- STOP on marketing doesn't kill invoice texts — and vice versa
- Quiet hours and rate limits enforced before every send

When something happens on site, write it down properly
Property damage, a safety incident, a threat to your tech, a code violation you discovered — each gets a proper record with the date it happened (not just when it was typed up), photos, and follow-ups that don't get forgotten.
- Incident, safety, and forced-departure records
- Code violations stay with the property, across owners
- Technician safety follow-ups that actually surface
