By accessing or using ClearCost (“the Platform”), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Use. If you do not agree to all the terms and conditions, you may not access or use the Platform.
ClearCost provides a free online platform that (a) generates data-backed Fair Market Rate estimates for home improvement projects, and (b) matches homeowners with verified, independent contractors. ClearCost does not itself perform, supervise, or guarantee any construction, repair, or renovation work.
You may be required to provide personal information such as your name, email, phone number, and project address to use certain features. You agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information and to keep it up to date. You are responsible for all activity that occurs under your account.
Price estimates provided by ClearCost are for informational purposes only. They are based on local data averages and may not reflect the final cost of your project. Actual costs depend on site-specific conditions, material availability, and contractor pricing. ClearCost makes no warranty that estimates will match the final invoiced price.
All contractors accessible through the Platform are independent third parties. They are not employees, agents, or partners of ClearCost. ClearCost verifies licensing and insurance at the time of onboarding; however, it is your responsibility to independently verify a contractor's current credentials before work begins. ClearCost is not liable for any work performed by contractors.
You agree not to: (a) use the Platform for any unlawful purpose; (b) submit false, inaccurate, or misleading information; (c) attempt to gain unauthorized access to any part of the Platform; (d) interfere with or disrupt the Platform or servers; or (e) use the Platform to harass, abuse, or harm another person.
All content, features, and functionality of the Platform — including text, graphics, logos, icons, images, data compilations, and software — are the exclusive property of ClearCost, Inc. and are protected by U.S. and international copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, ClearCost shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from or related to your use of the Platform, including but not limited to damages for loss of profits, data, or use. ClearCost's total liability shall not exceed $100.
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless ClearCost, its officers, directors, employees, and agents from any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, or expenses arising from your use of the Platform or your violation of these Terms.
These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Georgia, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. Any legal action shall be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Fulton County, Georgia.
ClearCost reserves the right to modify these Terms at any time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated “Last updated” date. Continued use of the Platform after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms.
