1. Acceptance
By using buildpricing.com ("the site"), you agree to these terms. If you don't agree, please don't use the site.
2. The site is informational, not professional advice
BuildPricing publishes cost estimates and editorial content for informational purposes only. The figures and guidance on this site are not professional construction, engineering, legal, financial, or tax advice. Always consult licensed professionals for project-specific decisions, code interpretation, and contract review.
3. Cost estimate accuracy
Our calculators apply published industry data to user inputs and produce a typical cost range. Real-world costs vary by contractor, regional market conditions, project specifics, and timing. Your actual quotes may be higher or lower than our estimates. We make reasonable efforts to keep figures current but make no warranty regarding accuracy or completeness for any specific project.
4. Affiliate disclosure
Some links on the site — particularly "compare local quotes" and "get matched with contractors" buttons — direct to third-party affiliate networks (Networx, Modernize, EnergySage, and others). When you submit a request through these networks and ultimately request a quote, BuildPricing may earn a referral fee. These relationships do not influence the editorial content or cost figures on the site.
5. Permitted use
You may use the site for personal, non-commercial home improvement research. You may not scrape calculator outputs in bulk for resale, frame the site, or repackage editorial content without permission. Linking to specific pages is welcome.
6. Intellectual property
The original editorial content, calculator logic, and design of buildpricing.com are © BuildPricing. Industry data referenced (BLS, RSMeans, etc.) belongs to the respective publishers and is used under fair use for editorial purposes.
7. User-submitted content
If you submit feedback, corrections, or comments via email or contact form, you grant BuildPricing a non-exclusive license to use that content to improve the site (e.g., correcting cost figures based on a verified industry tip). We do not republish user-submitted content as new editorial without explicit permission.
8. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, BuildPricing is not liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages arising from use of the site. Specifically, we are not responsible for outcomes of contracting decisions you make based on cost estimates published here. Always verify figures with licensed professionals before signing contracts.
9. Third-party links
The site links to external resources (BLS, ENERGY STAR, DSIRE, etc.) for reference. We don't control those sites and aren't responsible for their content or privacy practices.
10. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify BuildPricing against claims arising from your misuse of the site or violation of these terms.
11. Changes
We may update these terms when relevant. Material changes will be summarized in a notice on the homepage for 30 days. Continued use after changes constitutes acceptance.
12. Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, USA, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Disputes will be resolved in Delaware state or federal courts.
