Privacy Policy

Information we collect

When you request an estimate, contact us, or apply for a job, we collect the information you provide — such as your name, email address, phone number, mailing address, project details, and (for job applicants) the position and background information you submit. We also automatically collect limited technical and usage information — such as your device and browser type, approximate location, and the pages you view — through analytics cookies (see "Cookies and analytics" below). We do not sell or rent your personal information.

How we use your information

We use the information you submit solely to respond to your inquiry, schedule estimates, provide services, and follow up about your project — and, for job applicants, to evaluate your candidacy and contact you about employment. We do not use your information for marketing emails, and we do not sell it. We do not share it with third parties except the service providers that help us operate and measure this website (see "Cookies and analytics" for the limited advertising-measurement use of a hashed email). Form submissions are delivered to us by email through our forms provider, Formspree.

Cookies and analytics

We use Google Analytics, a web-analytics service provided by Google, to understand how visitors find and use our site — for example, which pages are most popular — so we can improve it. Google Analytics sets cookies and collects information such as your device and browser type, approximate location, and the pages you visit. This information is used in aggregate only, to measure and improve website performance; we do not use it to identify you personally, and we do not sell it.

You can opt out of Google Analytics by installing Google's opt-out browser add-on, or by blocking or clearing cookies in your browser settings. Some pages also embed a Google Map, and our portfolio plays videos from YouTube when you click them; these Google services may set their own cookies.

We advertise through Google Ads and measure which ads lead to inquiries. When you submit a form, your email address is converted into an irreversible encrypted code (a "hash") in your browser and sent to Google solely so it can match your inquiry to an ad click — a feature Google calls enhanced conversions. Google does not receive your actual email address through this process, and we share only the email — never your phone number, name, address, or message. You can prevent this by blocking scripts or cookies in your browser settings or with an ad blocker.

We also advertise on Facebook and Instagram and use the Meta Pixel — a small piece of code provided by Meta Platforms, Inc. — to measure which ads bring people to our site and lead to inquiries. The Meta Pixel sets cookies and collects limited technical information such as your IP address, browser and device type, and the pages you view here, and shares it with Meta so we can understand how our ads perform. When you submit a form, your email address and phone number are converted into an irreversible encrypted code (a "hash") in your browser before being sent to Meta, solely so Meta can match your inquiry to an ad you may have seen; Meta does not receive your actual email address or phone number through this process, and we never share your name, address, or message. You can opt out through your Facebook ad preferences, or by blocking scripts or cookies in your browser settings or with an ad blocker.

Non-essential cookies — including the Google and Meta analytics and advertising cookies described above — load only after you accept them using the banner shown when you first visit. Until then they stay off. You can change or withdraw your choice at any time using the "Cookie settings" link in the site footer.

Children's privacy

The Site is intended for a general, adult audience — primarily homeowners. It is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. We do not ask for a date of birth or age, and our forms are designed for home-improvement inquiries only.

If you believe a child under 13 may have provided us personal information, please contact us at the details below and we will delete it promptly. A parent or guardian may also contact us to review, correct, or request deletion of any information we may have inadvertently collected from their child.
