1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using Kitchen Remodeling Bellevue (the "Website"), you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agreed to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree to these terms, you should not access or use the Website.

2. Nature of Service & No Contractor Relationship

The Website provides general educational content, neighborhood architectural guides, planning checklists, and an interactive budget calculator. Kitchen Remodeling Bellevue is not a licensed general contractor, specialty trade contractor, architect, structural engineer, or showroom.

The Website facilitates connections between interested homeowners and independent third-party remodeling contractors operating in Bellevue and King County. Submitting a consultation form does not create an employer-employee, agency, or partnership relationship between us and any contractor or between us and any homeowner.

3. Educational Content & Estimates

All information published on this Website—including cost ranges, timeline estimates, permitting descriptions, and code explanations—is provided solely for general planning purposes:

Cost models produced by the Cost Calculator are mathematical approximations based on typical planning assumptions, not binding contractor quotes or contractual bids.
Building codes and permitting rules are established by the City of Bellevue Development Services and King County. You must verify all requirements with appropriate authorities before commencing construction.

4. Independent Contractor Transactions

Any agreement, contract, warranty, or financial transaction you enter into with a contractor introduced through this Website is solely between you and that contractor. We are not a party to, nor do we monitor, guarantee, or assume liability for:

The quality, safety, legality, or timeliness of contractor work
Contractor bids, billing disputes, or project delays
Contractor licensing status, bonding, or insurance compliance (homeowners are strongly advised to independently verify contractor licenses with the Washington State Department of Labor & Industries before signing agreements)
