A person who has entered into a written contract with a residential building contractor, residential remodeler, or residential roofer to provide goods and services to be paid by the insured from the proceeds of a property or casualty insurance policy has the right to cancel the contract within 72 hours after the insured has been notified by the insurer that the claim has been denied. Cancellation is evidenced by the insured giving written notice of cancellation to the contractor at the address stated in the contract. Notice of cancellation, if given by mail, is effective upon deposit in a mailbox, properly addressed to the contractor and postage prepaid. Notice of cancellation need not take a particular form and is sufficient if it indicates, by any form of written expression, the intention of the insured not to be bound by the contract.

(2) furnish each insured a fully completed form in duplicate, captioned "NOTICE OF CANCELLATION," which shall be attached to the contract and easily detachable, and which shall contain in boldface type of a minimum size of ten points the following information and statements:
"NOTICE OF CANCELLATION

If you cancel, any payments made by you under the contract will be returned within ten business days following receipt by the contractor of your cancellation notice.
Within ten days after a contract referred to in subdivision 1 has been canceled, the contractor must tender to the insured any payments made by the insured and any note or other evidence of indebtedness. However, if the contractor has performed any emergency services, the contractor is entitled to compensation for such services.
Subd. 4. Definition. For the purposes of this section, "contractor" means a residential building contractor who is providing roofing services, a residential remodeler who is providing roofing services, or a residential roofer.
