required to insert details of the work they require, add any photos to give an
understanding of the services required and timelines for that work.
3.1.2 The platform will, in certain use cases but excluding
the search and quote function, then match customers with a list of local
tradespeople who can assist. This list will contain tradespeople profiles which
will show their rating, services, and skills.
3.1.3 Customers are solely responsible for evaluating the
suitability of tradespeople for the services they offer to provide and choosing
a tradesperson.

and finalise the booking.

and a tradesperson, you (whether you are the customer or tradesperson) agree to
irrevocably release FindMyTradesman.es, its employees, officers, successors and

comfortable to do so. We bear no loss nor liability for any damages incurred as
a result of such agreement.

4.1.1 As a customer, if you choose to use a service from
tradespeople on the platform, your contract for those services is with those

criteria relevant to tradespeople: (i) quality and content of a tradesperson's
profile, (ii) reviews, (iii) localised supply and demand, (iv) compatibility
with customer search criteria in terms of location and trade category and (v)

platform, customers are free to accept or decline it.
4.1.4 To the extent legally permitted, FindMyTradesman.es is
not liable for any theft or loss of property in connection with services

damage or liability incurred in connection whether directly or indirectly from
the use of tradespeople sourced via the platform.

held responsible for any omissions or inaccurate claims that may appear.

part by third parties, details of which are included here. FindMyTradesman.es

promote its tradesperson members to the public, isolating
rogue traders.
4.2.3 During the Vetting process, FindMyTradesman.es
requests copies of General & Professional liability insurance documentation
from tradespeople and also carries out Monitoring on that insurance
documentation at the point we are told it is due to expire. FindMyTradesman.es
cannot however guarantee whether tradespeople retain PLI insurance between Verification
and Monitoring.
4.2.4Where we are made aware that a tradesperson has expired
General / Professional liability Insurance, we use
reasonable endeavours to notify customers by means of a notice on the relevant
tradesperson’s profile. We cannot however guarantee that such a notice has been

therefore recommends that customers ask to see a copy of a tradesperson's
insurance certificate before they begin work.

your continued ability to use the platform in addition to these Terms.
