⚠ General Planning Figure Disclaimer

ALL CALCULATIONS, ESTIMATES, RATIOS, AND FINANCIAL BENCHMARKS PROVIDED ON COSTIMATED ARE FOR PRELIMINARY PLANNING AND INFORMATIONAL BUDGETING PURPOSES ONLY.

Costimated is not a licensed construction firm, general contractor, structural engineer, architect, or insurance appraiser. Nothing on this website constitutes a formal contractor quote, binding bid, engineering recommendation, or professional building code assessment.

1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using Costimated (the "Website"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Use. If you do not agree with any part of these terms, your sole remedy is to cease using our calculation tools and guides.

2. No Contractor-Client or Professional Relationship

Your use of Costimated’s interactive calculation tools, tables, and cost guides does not create any contractor-client, fiduciary, or professional advisory relationship between you and Costimated. Construction estimates vary widely based on hidden structural deterioration, sub-surface soil conditions, municipal permit escalations, contractor scheduling availability, and local supplier shortages.

3. Independent Contractor Verification Required

Before signing any construction contract, purchasing building materials, demolishing existing structures, or applying for municipal financing, you must obtain itemized on-site bids from licensed, bonded, and insured contractors in your specific municipal jurisdiction.

4. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Costimated, its operators, contributors, and authors disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including fitness for a particular purpose or accuracy of cost calculations. Costimated shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages arising from project budget discrepancies, contractor disputes, material over-orders, or construction defects.

5. Modifications to Service & Data

We reserve the right to revise our calculation formulas, pricing datasets, regional multipliers, and site features at any time without prior notice as market commodities and labor rates evolve.
