By submitting a project, creating a homeowner account, checking an acceptance box, using project tracking, requesting a contractor connection, or otherwise using homeowner features, you agree to these Homeowner Terms, the general Terms of Service, and the Privacy Policy.

1. Acceptance of Homeowner Terms

These Homeowner Terms constitute an agreement between [INSERT LEGAL BUSINESS NAME], doing business as TradeProList (“TradeProList,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), and the homeowner, property representative, or project customer accepting these terms (“Homeowner,” “Customer,” “you,” or “your”).

You confirm that you have read, understood, and agreed to these Homeowner Terms before submitting or pursuing a project through TradeProList.

If you use TradeProList on behalf of another person, property owner, landlord, company, homeowners’ association, or other organization, you represent that you have authority to act on its behalf.

3. Eligibility and Authority

You must be at least 18 years old and legally capable of entering into a binding agreement to use homeowner features.

You represent that:

You are authorized to provide the submitted contact information.
You are legally authorized to request work at the identified property.
The project is genuine and submitted in good faith.
Your use of TradeProList does not violate another agreement or legal obligation.
You will not use the Platform for fraudulent, unlawful, or dangerous purposes.

4. TradeProList’s Role

TradeProList provides a technology platform intended to help homeowners organize project information and connect with independent contractors.

Submit a Project You provide information about the work, property, timing, and preferred contact method.

Project Review TradeProList may review the project for category, location, completeness, and network availability.

Contractor Matching We may identify an independent contractor whose services appear reasonably aligned with the request.

You Decide You may speak with the contractor, review an estimate, and independently decide whether to proceed.

TradeProList is not the contractor. TradeProList does not perform, supervise, schedule, inspect, approve, guarantee, finance, or warranty the contractor’s work.

Independent contractors are not employees, agents, representatives, partners, or franchisees of TradeProList.

5. Project Submissions

A project submission is a request for assistance locating a potential independent contractor. It is not:

A binding construction or service contract.
A guaranteed appointment or estimate.
A promise that a contractor is available.
A purchase order or authorization to begin work.
An emergency-service request.
A guarantee that the project can be performed within a stated budget or schedule.

TradeProList may review, categorize, clarify, pause, decline, close, or remove a project request based on completeness, service coverage, contractor availability, safety concerns, suspected misuse, or other legitimate operational reasons.

Submission does not require you to hire a contractor.

6. Accurate and Complete Information

You agree to provide information that is accurate, reasonably complete, and not misleading.

Project information may include:

Your name, email address, and telephone number.
The property address, ZIP code, or service location.
The type of service requested.
Known property, equipment, or system conditions.
Budget, timing, access, and scheduling preferences.
Photos, videos, documents, measurements, or descriptions.
Known hazards, damage, prior work, or unresolved issues.

You agree to promptly correct material information that becomes inaccurate or notify TradeProList when the project is no longer needed.

TradeProList and contractors may rely on submitted information for preliminary evaluation, but a contractor must independently evaluate the project before performing work.

7. Property Ownership and Authorization

You represent that you are the property owner or have sufficient authority to request contractor services at the identified location.

You are responsible for obtaining permission when required from:

The property owner or co-owner.
A landlord or property manager.
A condominium or homeowners’ association.
A commercial tenant or building owner.
A lender, insurer, governmental agency, or other interested party.

TradeProList does not verify ownership or authority for every project and is not responsible for disputes concerning permission to request or perform work.

8. Contractor Matching

TradeProList may consider factors such as:

Project type and requested trade.
Property location and contractor service area.
Contractor availability and capacity.
Licensing, insurance, profile, and account status.
Project budget, timing, complexity, and stated preferences.
Contractor experience, responsiveness, and project preferences.
Network capacity and operational considerations.

Matching may be automated, manual, or a combination of both.

No guaranteed match TradeProList does not guarantee that a contractor will accept the project, contact you, provide an estimate, agree to your budget, remain available, or perform the work.

TradeProList may initially offer a project to one contractor at a time. If that contractor declines, does not respond, becomes unavailable, or does not proceed, the project may be considered for another contractor.

9. Contractor Contact

By submitting a project, you authorize TradeProList to provide relevant project and contact information to a potential or selected contractor.

The contractor may contact you by:

Telephone call.
Text message.
Email.
Voicemail.
Another communication method you provide or request.

Contractor communications are made by the independent contractor, not by TradeProList, unless clearly identified otherwise.

You may tell a contractor that you are no longer interested or ask the contractor to stop project-related contact.

No obligation to hire Speaking with a matched contractor, receiving an estimate, or scheduling an appointment does not require you to hire that contractor.

10. Homeowner Due Diligence

You are responsible for deciding whether an independent contractor is appropriate for your property and project.

Before hiring a contractor, you should independently consider:

✓

License Status Confirm that the contractor holds the licenses and qualifications required for the location and scope.

✓

Insurance Request current proof of liability, workers’ compensation, or other appropriate coverage.

✓

Written Estimate Review the scope, materials, price, payment terms, schedule, exclusions, and warranty.

✓

References and History Consider references, reviews, complaints, experience, and prior project examples.

TradeProList may review or display contractor information, but such information may change, expire, become inaccurate, or be incomplete.

A “verified,” “approved,” “qualified,” “matched,” or similar designation does not guarantee the contractor’s licensing, insurance, character, financial condition, pricing, availability, safety, workmanship, or project outcome.

11. Estimates, Proposals, and Work Agreements

Any estimate, proposal, scope of work, service contract, financing agreement, change order, invoice, or warranty is between you and the independent contractor.

Unless a specific TradeProList payment feature expressly states otherwise, all contractor charges, deposits, invoices, financing arrangements, and refunds are handled directly between you and the independent contractor.

You are responsible for reviewing payment terms before making a payment.

That a contractor will refund a deposit.
That financing will be approved.
That final costs will equal preliminary estimates.
