Terms of Service

Acceptance of Terms

Welcome to BYOR. By accessing or using www.BYORoofer.com (the "Platform"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms").

If you do not agree, do not use the Platform.

Platform Purpose and Role

BYOR operates as a technology, coordination, and information platform. BYOR facilitates connections between homeowners ("Homeowners") and participating independent contractors ("Contractors").

Roofing, construction, inspection, repair, installation, demolition, mitigation, cleanup, and related services are performed by independent contractors and third-party service providers. BYOR does not employ, control, supervise, or direct the means and methods of any Contractor's work.

BYOR is not the contractor of record, roofer, adjuster, insurer, public adjuster, engineer, manufacturer, warranty provider, subcontractor, broker, or construction service provider.

• Perform construction work
• Employ or control Contractors
• Supervise or inspect work
• Guarantee pricing, quality, or outcomes

All roofing and construction services are provided by independent Contractors, not by BYOR.

Independent Contractor Relationship

Contractors are independent businesses and are not employees, agents, joint venturers, partners, or representatives of BYOR.

Contractors are responsible for their work, employees, subcontractors, licenses, permits, insurance, safety practices, customer communications, warranties, pricing, scheduling, materials, and compliance with applicable law.

• Any agency relationship (except limited payment facilitation as described herein)
• Partnership or joint venture
• Employment relationship

Homeowners are responsible for selecting and contracting directly with Contractors unless a separate written agreement signed by BYOR expressly states otherwise.

No Contractor Warranty by BYOR

BYOR does not guarantee or warrant any Contractor's workmanship, pricing, availability, schedule, licensing status, insurance coverage, safety practices, permits, materials, representations, or performance.

Any agreement for roofing or construction services is between the Homeowner and the Contractor unless expressly stated otherwise in a written agreement signed by BYOR.

Payment Facilitation

BYOR may facilitate payments between users.

• Payments are processed on behalf of Contractors
• BYOR acts as a limited agent for payment collection and disbursement only
• Funds are held for the benefit of Contractors
• BYOR does not take ownership of project funds

BYOR may deduct a platform service fee prior to remitting funds.

Platform Fees

Contractors agree to pay BYOR a service fee for use of the Platform.

• Fees may be percentage-based or fixed
• Fees are separate from the Contractor's service agreement
• Fees compensate BYOR for technology, marketing, and facilitation services

Taxes

Each user is solely responsible for their own tax obligations.

• Contractors are responsible for all applicable taxes, including sales, use, and income taxes
• Homeowners are responsible for any applicable taxes related to services

BYOR does not determine tax applicability, provide tax advice, or collect taxes on behalf of Contractors unless required by law.

Contractor Insurance Requirement

Contractors applying to or participating in the BYOR platform must maintain active insurance coverage appropriate for their work, including general liability coverage and any other legally required or commercially reasonable coverage.

BYOR may request certificates of insurance, policy information, endorsements, expiration dates, and related documentation at any time.

Contractors must keep insurance information current and may be rejected, suspended, hidden, deactivated, removed, or blocked from lead access if coverage expires or documents are missing, unverifiable, inaccurate, or otherwise unacceptable to BYOR.

Additional Insured Requirement

Contractors must list BYOR as Additional Insured on applicable general liability policies where required by BYOR and must provide documentation reasonably acceptable to BYOR.

A certificate of insurance alone may not be sufficient unless it accurately reflects the policy and applicable endorsements. BYOR may require copies of endorsements or other proof of Additional Insured status.

Certificate holder and Additional Insured naming instruction: "BYOR, its members, managers, officers, directors, employees, agents, affiliates, successors, and assigns."

Insurance Document Accuracy

Contractors represent that all insurance information, certificates, endorsements, expiration dates, and documents submitted to BYOR are true, current, complete, and not misleading.

Contractors must promptly notify BYOR of cancellation, nonrenewal, lapse, material change, or reduction in coverage.

Suspension for Insurance Issues

BYOR may reject, suspend, hide, deactivate, or remove any Contractor account, listing, lead access, or platform privileges if insurance documents are missing, expired, inaccurate, unverifiable, or otherwise unacceptable to BYOR.

No Warranties

THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE."

BYOR DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, INCLUDING merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.

BYOR makes no guarantees regarding Contractor qualifications, work quality, pricing accuracy, insurance coverage, or project timelines.

Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, BYOR SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR property damage, construction defects, personal injury, project delays or disputes, or financial losses arising from independent Contractor work.

TOTAL LIABILITY OF BYOR SHALL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF fees paid to BYOR in the prior 3 months or $500.

Contractor Indemnification and Hold Harmless

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Contractor agrees to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless BYOR, its members, managers, officers, directors, employees, agents, affiliates, successors, and assigns from and against any and all claims, demands, damages, losses, liabilities, penalties, fines, costs, and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, arising out of or related to Contractor's work, acts, omissions, representations, insurance status, employees, subcontractors, licensing, permitting, safety practices, warranties, customer communications, or breach of these Terms.

Homeowner Release and Hold Harmless

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Homeowner agrees that BYOR is not responsible for the acts, omissions, workmanship, pricing, scheduling, safety practices, warranties, licensing, permitting, insurance, or performance of any independent Contractor.

Homeowner agrees to release and hold harmless BYOR, its members, managers, officers, directors, employees, agents, affiliates, successors, and assigns from claims arising out of or related to work performed by independent Contractors, except to the extent such claims are caused by BYOR's own gross negligence, willful misconduct, or non-waivable legal obligations.
