Our Services
Certified Contractors is a price comparison service to find competitive prices for contractor services.
Our website and price comparison technology have been designed for private individuals or businesses seeking services on their own behalf. Therefore, you may only use our service if you are:
-
A private individual using our website and price comparison technology to find competitive prices for a service on your own behalf or on behalf of a close family member; or
-
Acting on behalf of a company using our website and price comparison technology to find competitive prices for a service on behalf of the company.
Your Responsibility
To get a quote through our price comparison service, you will need to answer a number of questions on our site needed by all the different service providers. The answers you give will determine the services available to you and the amount you will pay. You must get permission from any other people whose details you propose to use in requesting a quote before you provide us with any of their information.
In submitting any other person's details, you confirm to us that you have their permission to do so and that they understand how their information will be used. You are solely responsible for ensuring that you answer all questions honestly and that all information you enter onto our website is true, accurate, and complete. If you do not do this, it could lead to your selected service later increasing in price or becoming invalid.
As we work with a large number of providers, it is important that you read the provider’s terms and conditions and agree with them before purchasing your service as they will differ from ours. If any information is not correct, it is your responsibility to identify the mistake and correct this with the service provider directly.
Price Delivery
Companies change their prices and amend their rates regularly. The price quoted to you will be accurate at the time of issue and may change if your quote is resubmitted. As part of our service, we will send you an electronic confirmation of your prices, which could be via email, SMS, or app. Remember, you will receive the same guarantee from the services provider as you would have received from them by going direct.
Our Liability to You
Certified Contractors is a price comparison website. The third-party contractors are not directly connected to us.

If Our Standards Fall Short
Our aim is to always provide a first-class standard of service. However, there may be occasions when you feel we have not achieved this. If we fall short of our standards, we want you to tell us.
At Certified Contractors, we take all complaints seriously. If your complaint concerns a provider you purchased a service for through us, you should address it directly to that company.
