How long does a homeowner have to cancel a home improvement contract in Wyoming?
In Wyoming, a buyer in a home solicitation sale made on consumer credit for $25 or more, solicited in person or by telephone away from the seller’s place of business, may cancel by giving written notice of cancellation to the seller at the address in the agreement until midnight of the third business day after signing. The seller must give the buyer a written agreement with a bold-faced "Buyer’s right to cancel" statement next to the buyer’s signature and an attached, easily detachable "Notice of cancellation" form completed in duplicate; until the seller complies, the buyer may cancel by notifying the seller of the intention to cancel. Within ten days after cancellation, the seller must return any goods traded in, any payments made by the buyer and any note or other evidence of debt, and a seller that performed services before cancellation is entitled to no compensation. The buyer may not cancel after asking the seller to provide goods or services without delay because of an emergency, if the seller in good faith made a substantial beginning of performance before notice of cancellation and any goods cannot be returned in substantially as good condition. The federal cooling-off rule separately gives three business days to cancel many sales made at the buyer’s home. This is Wyo. Stat. §§ 40-14-251, 40-14-252, 40-14-253, 40-14-254, 40-14-255.

How Seayora uses this rule
An estimate on Seayora carries its own terms and contract text, and the customer’s approval is recorded with its date, so the day a cancellation period starts is on file for both the contractor and the homeowner.
