Version 2.1
These terms reflect our core values: transparency, fairness, and customer empowerment. We've written them in plain English because we believe you should understand exactly what you're agreeing to.
Transparent
Fair
Protected
Plain English: By using OpenbooQ, you agree to these terms. Simple as that.
Welcome to OpenbooQ Marketing Hub. By accessing or using our website, mobile application, or services, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with any part of these terms, please do not use our services.
These terms apply to all users of OpenbooQ, including homeowners seeking roofing services, contractors in our network, and visitors to our website. We reserve the right to update these terms at any time, with changes taking effect immediately upon posting.
Plain English: We connect homeowners with certified roofing contractors through our transparent platform.
OpenbooQ operates as a digital marketplace connecting homeowners with pre-vetted, certified roofing contractors. Our platform provides transparent pricing, project management tools, and quality assurance throughout the roofing process.
We charge a transparent service fee on completed projects, disclosed in full on your detailed quote before you sign. This fee covers our platform services, quality assurance, warranty backing, and customer support.
Plain English: Transparent pricing, broken out by materials, labor and tax. No hidden markups, no surprises.
Our pricing model is built on radical transparency. Unlike traditional contractors who hide costs and layer on commissions, we show you a detailed quote broken out by materials, labor and tax before you sign, with our service fee disclosed on it.
Payment terms are clearly outlined in your project agreement. We typically require a small deposit to begin work, with the majority of payment due upon satisfactory completion. All payments are processed through secure, encrypted channels.
Plain English: Comprehensive 25-year warranty on workmanship, plus manufacturer warranties on materials.
We stand behind every project with our comprehensive 25-year workmanship warranty, in addition to manufacturer warranties on all materials. This dual protection ensures your investment is protected.
To maintain warranty coverage, routine maintenance as outlined in your warranty documentation is required. We provide clear maintenance guidelines and reminder services to help protect your investment.
Plain English: All contractors are vetted, licensed, insured, and continuously monitored for quality.
Every contractor in our network undergoes rigorous vetting before approval and continuous monitoring throughout their partnership with OpenbooQ. We maintain high standards to ensure quality and reliability.
While we carefully vet our contractors, the contractual relationship for your roofing work is between you and the contractor. OpenbooQ facilitates the connection and provides oversight, but the contractor is responsible for the actual work performed.
Plain English: Clear liability structure with comprehensive insurance coverage protecting all parties.
OpenbooQ maintains comprehensive insurance coverage and requires the same from all network contractors. This multi-layered protection ensures all parties are covered in the unlikely event of issues.
OpenbooQ's liability is limited to the service fees paid for platform services. Contractors maintain primary liability for workmanship and materials. Our role is to facilitate connections and provide oversight, not to perform roofing work directly.
Plain English: Your personal information is protected with enterprise-grade security and clear usage policies.
We take your privacy seriously and implement enterprise-grade security measures to protect your personal information. Our data practices are transparent and designed to give you control over your information.
For complete details on how we collect, use, and protect your information, please review our Privacy Policy. We never sell your personal information to third parties and only share data as necessary to provide our services.
Plain English: Either party can terminate the relationship with proper notice and fair resolution of ongoing projects.
You may terminate your OpenbooQ account at any time by contacting our customer service team. We may terminate accounts for violations of these terms or other legitimate business reasons.
Termination does not affect completed transactions, warranty obligations, or dispute resolution proceedings already in progress. All parties remain bound by confidentiality and other surviving provisions.
We believe in empowering homeowners with clear rights and protections
You have the right to see exactly what you're paying for, with no hidden fees or surprise markups.
You have the right to quality workmanship backed by our 25-year workmanship warranty.
You have the right to know your contractor's credentials, insurance status, and performance history.
You have the right to clear project timelines and regular updates on progress.

Fair and transparent resolution for any disagreements
Contact our customer service team first. Most issues are resolved quickly through direct conversation.
If direct communication doesn't resolve the issue, submit a formal written complaint to our legal department.
For complex disputes, we'll engage a neutral third-party mediator to help find a fair solution.
As a last resort, binding arbitration through the American Arbitration Association will resolve the dispute.
We're committed to resolving disputes fairly and quickly. Over 95% of issues are resolved in step 1 or 2, reflecting our commitment to customer satisfaction.
We believe in transparency. If anything in these terms is unclear, we're here to explain it in plain English.
