What the site provides is information and a form for asking to hear from one independent local contractor. It is not a contractor of any sort, not a residential building contractor or remodeler and nobody's agent, and the Minnesota Department of Labor and Industry (DLI) has issued it no license. It makes no offer to perform, inspect, bid on, negotiate or contract for basement work. It never talks price, takes deposits or hands over contracts. Any estimate, contract, payment, permit or warranty is a matter for you and the contractor you pick.

No promise is made here about a contractor's workmanship, pricing, credentials or insurance, and the site has looked into no one. Before signing, check the business through DLI's online lookup or at 651-284-5069, insist on a signed and dated written contract, and keep the deposit modest, which is DLI's advice. Plumbing, such as connecting a sump to a drain, needs a licensed plumbing contractor and a permit.

Contractors may pay the site a flat fee to advertise. Homeowners are never billed by the site and never receive cash, gifts or other things of value from it.

Guides, price ranges and tools on the site are general and provided as is. Figures cite a source and year and can age. Do not treat anything here as legal, insurance, engineering or financial advice.

Within the limits of Minnesota law, the site's owner accepts no liability for loss connected with using the site, acting on its content or hiring any contractor. Do not send fake requests, abuse the forms or reuse the content commercially.

These terms are governed by Minnesota law, and any dispute over them is for a Minnesota court. Updated terms apply from the moment they appear here.
