Effective Date: October 1, 2026

Website: https://pugetcontractorguide.com

Welcome to Puget Contractor Guide ("Website," "we," "us," or "our"). By accessing or using our website, submitting a project request, or registering as a participating contractor or business, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"). Please read them carefully before using our services.

If you do not agree to all of these Terms, you must not access or use our Website or services.

1. Description of Services

Puget Contractor Guide is an online platform that connects homeowners and property managers ("Consumers") with licensed contractors, trade professionals, and local service providers ("Contractors").

One of our primary services involves processing project requests from Consumers and distributing or routing potential client leads to participating Contractors. We act solely as a matching and lead-generation platform. We are not a general contractor, subcontractor, or party to any service contract agreed upon between Consumers and Contractors.

2. Eligibility

To use our Website and services, you must be at least 18 years of age and possess the legal authority to enter into a binding agreement. By using this Website, you represent and warrant that you meet these requirements.

3. Terms for Contractors and Businesses (Lead Generation)

If you are a Contractor or business receiving leads through pugetcontractorguide.com, the following terms apply:

  • No Guarantee of Results: While we strive to provide high-quality, relevant project inquiries, we do not guarantee that any lead will result in an estimate, an accepted bid, or a completed contract. We make no guarantees regarding the volume, quality, or conversion rate of leads provided.
  • Lead Delivery: Leads are transmitted via the contact methods you provide (e.g., email, SMS, or dashboard notification). You are responsible for maintaining accurate contact details.
  • Independent Contractor Status: Participation in our network does not create an employment, partnership, joint venture, or agency relationship between you and Puget Contractor Guide. You remain an independent entity entirely responsible for your own licensing, insurance, bonding, taxes, and business operations.
  • Professional Licensing and Compliance: You represent and warrant that you hold all necessary licenses, permits, and insurance required by the State of Washington and local municipalities to perform the services you offer.

4. Terms for Consumers

If you are a Consumer submitting a project request:

  • Free Service to Consumers: Submitting a project request on our platform is free. However, independent Contractors set their own pricing, estimates, and fee structures.
  • No Endorsement or Guarantee: We list, feature, or route inquiries to local businesses, but we do not endorse, guarantee, or warrant the workmanship, licensing status, insurance coverage, or reliability of any Contractor.
  • Due Diligence: You are solely responsible for interviewing, vetting, checking licenses (such as via the Washington Department of Labor & Industries), verifying insurance, and negotiating contract terms directly with any Contractor you choose to hire.
