Your access to and use of the Service is conditioned on your acceptance of and compliance with these Terms. These Terms apply to all visitors, users and others who access or use the Service.

By accessing or using the Service you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you disagree with any part of the terms then you may not access the Service.

The Work  

Find My Roofer LLC (“Broker” or “Find My Roofer”) will offer residential roofing/gutter contracts to Contractor.  These contracts will already be priced and accepted by Homeowner.  If Contractor accepts the contracts, Contractor agrees to complete roof replacements within 30 days of accepting and signing the contracts.

Broker may offer roof repair contracts or leads to Contractor, as long as Contractor does not also perform roof replacements.  If Contractor accepts repair contracts or leads, Contractor agrees to complete the respective contracts within 7 days of accepting and signing the contracts.  For repair leads only, Contractor will negotiate price with Homeowner, but agrees to keep the pricing within Broker’s parameters.

Contract Price

Under the terms of this Agreement, Broker will periodically offer construction contracts to Contractor.  Roof and gutter replacement contracts will be priced and signed by Homeowner prior to being offered to contractor. Roof repair could be signed contracts or simple referrals.  If a referral, roof repair technician agrees to Broker’s pricing formula, which could change at any time.  Formula uses  local prices for labor, materials, overhead, commissions, and a moderate net profit to Contractor (estimated 15% for roof replacements and 25% for gutters and roof repairs).  

Service Fee

Contractor acknowledges that Broker’s fee for roof replacements and gutter installations is 9% of the net contract price (gross price minus the Homeowner Fee).  The service fee is due and payable upon accepting each contract.  The fee for repair leads is $149, the standard Homeowner Fee, which must be shown on the contract.  The only time a fee may be credited/refunded would be if Broker reassigned the contract.

Broker’s Responsibilities

Broker will advertise and generate roof and gutter replacement leads.  From these leads, Broker will secure residential roofing/gutter installation projects.  Once a Homeowner accepts a contract, Broker will offer the job to a contractor from its network at a pre-determined price.

Contractor’s Responsibilities

Contractor will set his work area and number of jobs per week he is willing to accept.  Additionally, he will set a weekly budget.  Within 7 days of accepting and signing a contract, Contractor will meet with Homeowner to pick out colors and accessories.  Contractor agrees to complete installation of the roof/gutter no later than 30 days from date of accepting the contract and the homeowner’s funding the escrow account.  If Contractor accepts a repair contract or lead, he agrees to complete the job within 7 days of receiving the contract/lead.

Insurance

Contractor further agrees to maintain the following minimum insurance coverages:

Commercial General Liability (for roofing contractors)

$2,000,000 aggregate / $1,000,000 per occurrence

Workman’s Compensation

All workers must be covered with legal minimums for the appropriate trades.

Auto Liability

All vehicles that go to the jobsite must be covered with legal minimums.

Contractor agrees to supply Broker with current certificates at all times.  Further, Contractor will add Find My Roofer LLC as an additional insured on all general liability and workman’s compensation insurance certificates.

The Gear

Contractor agrees that it shall at its own expense perform, furnish and provide all labor, materials, tools, water and ice for their crew, first aid kits, personal safety equipment, safety glasses, gloves, boots, hard hats, safety lines, safety shirts for workers, COVID PPE, and full-time supervision for labor crews to perform the work of the specifications per each job.

Payment by Contractor

Contractor will keep a current credit card on file with Broker, and Contractor authorizes Broker to charge card 9% of net contract price immediately upon acceptance of contract.

Compliance with Law

Contractor shall give all notices and comply with all laws, ordinances, rules, regulations, and orders of any public authority bearing on the performance of the work. Contractor (and all his subcontractors) shall at all times perform all work in accordance with the current regulations of the Occupational Health and Safety Administration (OSHA) and, where applicable, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the state agencies where requirements extend to the Work performed by Contractor (and all his subcontractors). Contractor shall be responsible for any citations, fines and penalties if OSHA regulations or other regulations are violated and to take the steps necessary, at Contractor’s expense, to maintain compliance with all applicable regulations.  Contractor shall take all reasonable safety precautions with respect to his work.

Liens

Contractor shall keep the project and the lands upon which it is situated free from all mechanic’s liens, claims on bonds and all other liens by reason of its work or of any materials or other things used by the Contractor, its agents, employees, crew members, material men and subcontractors. Contractor will release all liens on Homeowner’s property within 7 days of receiving final payment via escrow.

Warranty

Contractor warrants its work against all deficiencies and defects in workmanship for 5 years from date of completed installation (1 year for repairs). Contractor warrants that all work performed shall be of good quality, free from faults and defects.  All work not conforming to these requirements may be considered defective. Contractor agrees to satisfy such warranty obligations by scheduling the repairs within 48 hours after receiving notice from Homeowner and by completing repairs within 1 week of receiving notice from Homeowner.

Protection of Work

During performance and until final inspection of the work by the appropriate governing entity, the Contractor shall be responsible for and under strict obligation to protect the finished and unfinished work, materials, equipment and other tools against any damage, loss or injury, produced by any cause whatsoever.

Indemnification

Contractor shall indemnify, pay for the defense and hold harmless Broker and all its agents and employees from and against all claims, damages, losses, expenses, including attorney fees, arising out of or resulting from the Contractor’s Work, provided that any such claim, damage, loss or expense is caused in whole or in part by an act or omission of the Contractor or anyone directly or indirectly employed by him or anyone for whose acts he may be liable.  These acts may include failure to provide information or providing false information.

Clean-up

Contractor shall at all times keep the premises free from accumulation of waste material or rubbish arising from construction work. Clean up shall be done daily by Contractor, debris all put in dumpsters, and all nails and screws picked up.

Extra Work and Charges

Contractor is NOT allowed to perform any work outside of the scope of work without written consent of the Homeowner prior to any work done. Price and amount charged to Homeowner shall be discussed and agreed to in writing prior to doing the work.

Reassignment

If Contractor fails to complete any required task or duty or fails to uphold Broker’s policies, Broker may reassign the job.  Also, Contractor acknowledges that Homeowner may at any time and for any reason request a different contractor.  In that case, Broker will reassign the job to a different contractor.  Therefore, Contractor understands he may lose jobs from time to time.  However, he will also gain jobs that other contractors lose.  When a job is reassigned, Contractor may be required to refund monies already collected for the reassigned jobs.  Further, when a job is reassigned, Broker, at its sole discretion, will either assign a replacement job to contractor, issue a credit/refund, or some combination of the two.  Contractor acknowledges he is NOT allowed to enforce any termination penalties or require the homeowner to pay any monies for any reason for reassigned jobs.

Trade Restrictions

Contractor may NOT sign up for both roof replacements and roof repairs.  Contractor must choose only one.  However, he may sign up for one roof trade (repair or replace) and also gutter installations.
