1. Acceptance of Terms
By accessing or using the Gutter Guards website and related services (the "Service"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree to these terms, you should not use this website or the Service.
2. Description of the Service
Gutter Guards operates an online homeowner matching platform designed to help users submit service requests and connect with independent local contractors that may offer:
- Gutter installation
- Seamless gutter systems
- Gutter replacement
- Gutter guards and leaf protection solutions
Gutter Guards does not provide contracting, construction, or installation services and does not employ or control service providers. All contractors are independent businesses, and availability may vary by location, weather conditions, and demand.
3. Service Requests and Estimates
Submitting a request through the Gutter Guards platform does not guarantee that a contractor will be available or that an estimate will be provided.
Any estimates, pricing information, timelines, or project details are:
- Provided directly by independent contractors
- Based on information available at the time
- Subject to change at the contractor's discretion
Gutter Guards does not set prices, provide quotes, or participate in negotiations between homeowners and contractors.
4. Payments
All payments for services are made directly between the homeowner and the selected contractor.
Gutter Guards:
- Does not collect payments for contractor services
- Is not a party to any service agreement
- Is not responsible for billing, refunds, chargebacks, or disputes related to payments
Payment terms, deposits, and accepted payment methods are determined solely by the contractor you choose to engage.
5. Contractor Relationship
Contractors listed or connected through the platform are independent third parties, not employees, agents, or partners of Gutter Guards.
Homeowners are solely responsible for:
- Verifying contractor licenses, insurance, and qualifications
- Reviewing written contracts and project terms
- Confirming compliance with local laws and regulations
Gutter Guards makes no representations or warranties regarding contractor performance, quality of work, or legal compliance.
6. No Warranties
The Service is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis.
Gutter Guards does not guarantee:
- Contractor availability
- Project outcomes
- Timelines, pricing, or results
- Quality or suitability of any services provided
Any warranties related to services or materials are provided, if at all, solely by the independent contractor, not by Gutter Guards.
7. User Responsibilities
By using the Service, you agree to:
- Provide accurate and truthful information
- Use the platform for lawful purposes only
- Conduct your own due diligence before hiring any contractor
- Comply with any agreements entered into with third-party providers

- Acts or omissions of third-party providers
- Project delays, workmanship issues, or disputes
- Losses, injuries, or damages resulting from contractor services
Gutter Guards' total liability, if any, shall not exceed the amount paid by you to Gutter Guards for use of the platform, if applicable.
9. Dispute Resolution
Any disputes related to contractor services must be resolved directly between the homeowner and the contractor.
Disputes related solely to the use of the Gutter Guards website or platform should first be addressed through good-faith communication. If unresolved, such disputes may be subject to mediation or legal proceedings as permitted by applicable law.
