1. HV Trades Is Not a Contractor
HV Trades is a contractor directory and local visibility platform. We do not perform contracting, construction, repair, installation, maintenance, inspection, engineering, architectural, or home improvement services.
Any services provided by a listed contractor are provided solely by that independent contractor, not by HV Trades.
2. Contractors Are Independent Businesses
Contractors listed on HV Trades are independent businesses. They are not employees, agents, representatives, partners, joint venturers, franchisees, or subcontractors of HV Trades.
Any estimate, quote, agreement, project, payment, warranty, dispute, or service relationship is strictly between the homeowner and the contractor.
3. Limited Contractor Review
HV Trades may review and approve contractors based on factors such as apparent business legitimacy, public reputation, online reviews, service area, and overall fit for the platform.
This review is limited in scope and should not be relied upon as a guarantee of performance, quality, safety, licensing status, insurance coverage, responsiveness, availability, pricing, workmanship, or project outcome.
4. No Guarantee of Contractor Work
Inclusion on HV Trades does not guarantee that a contractor will meet your expectations, complete work properly, respond to inquiries, provide a particular price, maintain licensing or insurance, or deliver any specific result.
5. No Endorsement or Warranty
Contractor listings, profiles, reviews, badges, rankings, categories, placements, or other website content are provided for informational and directory purposes only.
Nothing on this website should be interpreted as a warranty, guarantee, certification, legal endorsement, or professional recommendation of any contractor or service.
6. Homeowners Must Perform Their Own Due Diligence
Homeowners are responsible for independently evaluating and selecting contractors. Before hiring any contractor, homeowners should verify licensing, registration, insurance, bonding, references, reviews, prior work, estimates, contracts, warranties, permits, payment terms, and all project details directly with the contractor.
7. Third-Party Reviews and Information
HV Trades may display reviews, ratings, photos, business information, or related content sourced from Google Business Profiles or other third-party platforms.
HV Trades does not create, control, verify, or guarantee the accuracy, completeness, legality, authenticity, timeliness, or availability of third-party review content or business information.
8. Review Content May Change
Third-party reviews, ratings, and business information may change, become outdated, be removed, contain errors, or no longer reflect a contractor’s current business practices. HV Trades is not responsible for decisions made based on third-party reviews or other third-party content.
9. No Professional Advice
