Effective May 25, 2026 · Updated Jul 11, 2026
Your use rights
This site is for planning, benchmarking, and estimate interpretation.
Scope
Cost ranges are illustrative and not contractual guarantees.
Liability note
Always validate final pricing with licensed professionals before contract sign-off.
These terms cover use of CostArchitect’s roofing calculators, content pages, support forms, and planning estimates.
Use Of The Service
Users may use estimates as directional planning ranges and should verify local bids before signing any contract. CostArchitect does not provide licensed contractor advice, roof inspections, engineering opinions, insurance determinations, permit approvals, or emergency services. You must not use the calculator for any fraudulent bidding or misrepresentation activity.
Contact Requests
Users may submit ZIP code, contact details, request type, project notes, and calculator context for support or estimate interpretation. Submitting these details does not guarantee contractor response, contractor availability, final pricing, or a local quote.
Prohibited Uses
You may not use the service to misrepresent property condition, submit false contact information, scrape the site at abusive volume, reverse engineer protected systems, or present planning estimates as guaranteed contractor bids.
Availability
The site may update calculators, formulas, and supported regions. Feature availability and regional coverage can change without prior notice.
Liability
Estimates are planning references, not fixed quotes. You are responsible for independent contractor vetting, safety decisions, permits, contracts, inspections, warranty review, and final budget confirmation. To the fullest extent permitted by law, CostArchitect is not liable for losses caused by reliance on a planning estimate instead of a site-specific professional evaluation.
