Terms & Conditions

The terms on which this website is provided. Note that these cover the website — the terms of any actual construction work are set out in the contract for that job, not here.

Not legal advice. These terms are published for transparency about how the site is provided. They have not been reviewed by an attorney and they are not legal advice. Have a qualified lawyer review them against your obligations before relying on them.

What these terms cover

They cover use of deckbuilderherriman.com. They are not a construction contract. If work is agreed, the scope, price, schedule, payment terms and any warranty are set out in the written quote and contract for that specific project. Where those documents and this page disagree, the contract governs.

The information on this site is general

Pages here describe how deck work is typically approached in this region — footing depth, ledger attachment, guard heights, material behaviour and so on. It is written to be useful and accurate, but it is general information about a trade, not an engineering specification for your property.

Every deck depends on its own site: soil, grade, drainage, how the house is built, and the requirements of the city it stands in. Nothing on this site should be treated as a design for your deck, and none of it replaces a site visit, a permit or an inspection.

Building codes and regulations change

Figures quoted on this site — footing depths, snow loads, guard heights, permit exemptions — reflect published requirements at the time of writing and are cited to the jurisdiction that publishes them. Cities amend adopted codes and update their design criteria. Confirm current requirements with the relevant building department before making decisions, and assume anything here may have moved.

Quotes and estimates

No figure on this website is a quote. A quote is a specific written document produced after a site visit, for a defined scope, and it says so on it. Nothing here creates an offer capable of acceptance or a binding price.

Photography

Images on this site are licensed stock photographs used to illustrate deck styles, materials and conditions. They are not photographs of projects completed by this business and are not presented as such.

Enquiries sent through the form

Sending an enquiry does not create a contract or oblige either side to proceed. Please do not send confidential or sensitive information through the form. See the privacy policy for what is collected and how it is handled.

Availability

The site is provided as it is. It may be unavailable at times for maintenance, hosting issues or reasons outside anyone’s control, and no guarantee is made about uptime or uninterrupted access.

Links to other sites

Where this site links to a building department, a manufacturer or another third party, that is for convenience. Their content is theirs, and linking to them is not an endorsement of everything on their site.

Content on this site

The text and design of this website belong to the business operating it. Stock photography is used under the licence granted by its source. Please do not reproduce site content wholesale without permission.

Governing law

This site is operated from Utah and these terms are intended to be read under Utah law. Whether that is enforceable in your circumstances is exactly the kind of question a lawyer should answer rather than a web page.

Changes

These terms may be updated. The version published here is the one that applies.

Questions

Anything unclear here can be raised through the contact form.
