Marketplace Policies

Marketplace is where homeowners and professionals connect. AshBuilt provides the place to meet — not the deal, not the negotiation, and not the payment for construction work.

For homeowners

  • Never send money outside a written agreement you understand and accept.
  • Verify contractor licenses and insurance where your local rules require them.
  • Meet and communicate in ways that feel safe — prefer documented messages in AshBuilt.
  • Use written agreements for scope, price, schedule, and changes.
  • AshBuilt does not participate in price negotiations between you and a pro.

For professionals

  • Communicate clearly and keep important terms in writing.
  • Never ask homeowners for passwords, gift cards, or unusual payment methods.
  • Do not claim AshBuilt endorses or guarantees your bids.
  • Honor your license, insurance, and local trade requirements.
  • AshBuilt does not take a commission on your jobs or negotiated prices.
