Contractor Terms
Independent contractor terms for service providers listed on the Proxihouse marketplace.
Last updated: October 3, 2026
These terms supplement the Proxihouse Terms of Use. By registering as a contractor on Proxihouse, you agree to both documents. These terms are not a substitute for legal advice — consult a licensed attorney for guidance specific to your situation.
Marketplace Relationship
Proxihouse is a neutral online marketplace that connects homeowners with independent service providers. Proxihouse is not a home services company and does not itself perform any home improvement, repair, maintenance, or other services.
By listing on Proxihouse, you confirm that you are an independent contractor operating your own business — not an employee, agent, or representative of Proxihouse. Proxihouse does not employ, supervise, direct, or control you or the services you provide. Proxihouse does not set your prices, schedules, or methods of work.
Nothing in these terms creates any agency, partnership, joint venture, employment, or franchise relationship between Proxihouse and you. You are not authorized to make any representations, warranties, or commitments on behalf of Proxihouse.
Licensing & Credentials
You represent and warrant that you are legally authorized to perform the services you offer in every jurisdiction where you operate. This includes holding all required state, county, and municipal contractor licenses applicable to your trade.
If you provide a license number and state of licensure during registration, you confirm that this information is accurate, current, and valid. Proxihouse displays license information as provided by you but does not independently verify the accuracy, currency, or validity of any license.
You agree to promptly update your license information if it changes, expires, or is revoked. Proxihouse reserves the right to remove your listing if we have reason to believe your license information is inaccurate or your license has lapsed.
States that commonly require contractor licensing include California, Florida, Texas, New York, Arizona, and others. It is your sole responsibility to determine and comply with all applicable licensing requirements in the states where you work.
Insurance Requirements
You represent and warrant that you carry general liability insurance in amounts appropriate for your trade and the services you perform. At minimum, we recommend $1,000,000 per occurrence / $2,000,000 aggregate for most trades.
Certain trades (roofing, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, remodeling) may require higher coverage limits under applicable state law. You are solely responsible for determining and maintaining the insurance coverage required by law and by the nature of your work.
Proxihouse does not provide insurance coverage for your work, your employees, or your subcontractors. Any property damage, personal injury, or other harm arising from your services is your sole responsibility.
Contractor Representations
By registering and maintaining a listing on Proxihouse, you represent and warrant that:
- You are legally authorized to perform the services you offer in the jurisdictions where you operate.
- All license numbers, certifications, and credentials you provide are accurate, current, and valid.
- You carry all insurance required by applicable law and appropriate for the services you perform.
- You will comply with all applicable federal, state, and local laws, regulations, and licensing requirements.
- You will not misrepresent your qualifications, experience, or the services you provide to homeowners.
- You will perform all services in a professional, workmanlike manner consistent with industry standards.
- You will not engage in any deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal conduct in connection with services arranged through the platform.
Liability & Indemnification
Proxihouse makes no representations or warranties regarding the quality, safety, legality, or fitness of your services. Homeowners are solely responsible for evaluating, selecting, and contracting with you. Any agreement for services is solely between you and the homeowner.
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Proxihouse and its officers, directors, employees, and agents from and against any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or related to: (a) your services or failure to perform services; (b) your breach of these terms; (c) any property damage, personal injury, or other harm caused by you or your employees or subcontractors; or (d) your violation of any applicable law or regulation.
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, PROXIHOUSE SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR LISTING OR SERVICES.
Governing Law
These Contractor Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Oklahoma, without regard to conflict of law principles. Any disputes arising under these terms shall be resolved in the courts of Oklahoma.
These Contractor Terms are incorporated into and subject to the Proxihouse Terms of Use. In the event of a conflict between these Contractor Terms and the Terms of Use, these Contractor Terms shall control with respect to contractor-specific matters.
