Terms of Service

Welcome to BLDit.ca (the “Site”), operated by BLDit Inc. (“BLDit”, “we”, “us”, or “our”), located at 202-1457 McCowan Road, Toronto, Ontario, M1S 5K7. These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your use of our platform and services.

By using this Site, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, you must not access or use the Site.

1. Eligibility

To use BLDit.ca and access our Services, you must be at least 18 years of age and possess the legal capacity to enter into binding contracts under the laws applicable in your jurisdiction. By accessing or using the Site, you represent and warrant that:

• You are of legal age to form a binding contract;
• You are not barred from using the Services under any applicable laws or regulations;
• All information you provide is accurate, complete, and current;
• You will use the Site and Services solely for lawful purposes and in accordance with these Terms.

If you are using the Site on behalf of a company, partnership, or other legal entity, you further represent that you have the legal authority to bind that entity to these Terms, and that both you and the entity will comply with all applicable laws.

BLDit reserves the right to refuse access to the Services, suspend or terminate user accounts, or restrict features to any individual or entity that does not meet the eligibility requirements, or where use of the Services would violate any laws or regulations.

2. Our Services

BLDit provides an interactive, user-centric digital platform that enables homeowners and property managers to engage in streamlined home renovation planning and execution. Through our platform, users are able to:

• Plan and design room-by-room renovations using intuitive tools that guide layout selection, functional design choices, and space optimization strategies;
• Choose finishes, materials, and configurations from a curated selection of vetted suppliers, ensuring quality, compatibility, and aesthetic alignment with the user’s renovation goals;
• Receive transparent pricing based on the products, services, and configurations selected, with a detailed breakdown of costs to promote budgeting clarity and minimize surprise charges;
• Coordinate with licensed, insured, and verified contractors in the user’s geographic region to implement the renovation project from start to finish.

BLDit acts as a facilitator between users and third-party service providers, including contractors and suppliers. While we strive to ensure a smooth experience, BLDit does not directly perform renovation work and is not a party to any construction or service contract entered into between users and contractors.

We continually update and enhance our platform. Accordingly, we reserve the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of the Site, its features, or the Services we offer, at any time and without prior notice. This may include changes to pricing models, design interfaces, availability of certain contractors or products, or other functional adjustments.

BLDit shall not be liable to users or any third party for any such modification, suspension, or discontinuance of Services. We recommend that users regularly review the platform and associated documentation to stay informed of any updates.

3. Account Registration

To access certain features of the Site and utilize the full scope of BLDit’s Services—including saving renovation plans, selecting materials, and engaging contractors—you may be required to register for an account.

By creating an account, you agree to:

• Provide accurate, complete, and current information during the registration process;
• Keep your login credentials (such as your username and password) confidential and secure;
• Be solely responsible for all activities that occur under your account, whether or not authorized by you;
• Notify BLDit immediately at info@bldit.ca of any unauthorized use, suspected breach of security, or misuse of your account.

You may not:

• Share your account with any third party;
• Create more than one account unless expressly authorized;
• Use another user’s account or impersonate another individual or entity.

BLDit reserves the right to suspend or terminate your account at any time and without liability if we believe that you have violated these Terms, engaged in fraudulent activity, or otherwise misused the Site or Services.

Users are responsible for ensuring that their contact and billing information is kept up to date. BLDit is not liable for any losses or damages resulting from unauthorized access or user negligence in maintaining account security.

4. User Conduct

By accessing or using the Site and Services, you agree to use them responsibly, ethically, and in compliance with all applicable laws. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, you agree that you will not:

• Use the Site for any unlawful, fraudulent, or malicious purpose, including but not limited to violating local, provincial, national, or international laws or regulations;
• Impersonate any person or entity, or falsely represent your affiliation with any person, organization, or business;
• Access, tamper with, or use non-public areas of the Site, or attempt to gain unauthorized access to other user accounts, computer systems, or networks connected to the Site through hacking, password mining, or any other illegitimate means;
• Interfere with the operation, integrity, or security of the Site, including transmitting any viruses, malware, worms, Trojan horses, or other harmful code;
• Upload, post, transmit, or otherwise make available any content that is defamatory, obscene, abusive, threatening, invasive of privacy, misleading, offensive, discriminatory, or otherwise objectionable;
• Post or transmit any content that infringes upon or violates the intellectual property rights, privacy rights, publicity rights, or other proprietary rights of any third party;
• Collect or store personal data about other users without their express consent, or use the platform for unsolicited commercial messages, advertising, or spam;
• Use any automated system or software (e.g., bots, scrapers, or spiders) to access or extract data from the Site without express written consent from BLDit.

We reserve the right to monitor your use of the Site and to remove or disable access to any content or account that violates these Terms, without prior notice.

Violation of these provisions may result in suspension or termination of your account, legal action, or other remedies available to BLDit under law.

5. Payments and Quotes

BLDit aims to provide clear and transparent pricing to help users make informed decisions when planning and executing renovation projects. However, all cost estimates displayed on the platform—whether for materials, labour, or full project scope—are non-binding and subject to change based on product availability, contractor rates, design modifications, or unforeseen project variables.

a) Quotes and Pricing

All prices shown on the platform, including for materials and service packages, are estimates only and may fluctuate until formally confirmed.

A final project quote will be provided once all selections are finalized and prior to the commencement of work. This final quote may include taxes, delivery fees, contractor charges, and any other applicable costs.

BLDit does not guarantee price matching or fixed pricing for any extended period unless otherwise agreed in writing.

b) Payment Terms

By proceeding with a renovation project, you agree to the payment terms set out in the final quote or project agreement, which may include deposits, milestone-based payments, or payment upon completion.

Failure to pay in accordance with the agreed terms may result in project delays, suspension of services, or legal action to recover outstanding amounts.

You are responsible for providing valid and up-to-date payment information and authorizing any charges incurred under your account.

c) Third-Party Fees

Certain transactions may be processed by third-party payment processors. You agree to comply with the terms of service of any such processor and acknowledge that BLDit is not responsible for any errors or disputes arising from payment processing.

d) Refunds and Cancellations

Refunds or cancellations are subject to the terms outlined in your project-specific agreement or invoice. In general, deposits may be non-refundable once work has commenced or materials have been ordered.

If a contractor withdraws from a project for reasons beyond your control, BLDit will make reasonable efforts to assist in replacing the contractor, but does not guarantee project continuity or refunds beyond what is contractually obligated.

6. Contractor Relationships

BLDit functions as a digital intermediary that connects users with third-party renovation contractors for the purpose of carrying out residential renovation projects. These contractors include general contractors, subcontractors, designers, and other service providers (collectively, “Contractors”).

a) Independent Contractors

All Contractors accessible through the BLDit platform operate as independent third parties. They are not employees, agents, or affiliates of BLDit. Accordingly, BLDit does not supervise, direct, or control the manner in which Contractors perform their services.

b) Due Diligence

While BLDit makes reasonable efforts to verify the background, insurance, and licensure status of Contractors before listing them on the platform, we do not guarantee or warrant the accuracy, reliability, quality, safety, or legality of any services performed. It is the sole responsibility of the user to assess the suitability and credentials of any Contractor they choose to engage.

c) No Warranty or Endorsement

BLDit does not:

• Guarantee the quality or outcome of any work performed;
• Endorse any specific Contractor;
• Mediate contractual disputes between users and Contractors;
• Bear liability for any damages, injuries, losses, delays, or deficiencies caused by or associated with a Contractor's work.

d) Direct Engagement

Any agreement, payment arrangement, project scope, or warranty related to work performed by a Contractor is between you and the Contractor directly. Users are advised to:

• Enter into written contracts for clarity;
• Confirm that all necessary permits, insurance, and municipal approvals are obtained;
• Keep records of communications, payments, and timelines.

e) Risk Acknowledgement

By engaging a Contractor through the BLDit platform, you acknowledge and accept the risks associated with contracting for renovation work, including but not limited to cost overruns, construction delays, material shortages, and workmanship disputes.

a) Ownership and License

You retain full ownership of any User Content you submit. However, by uploading or submitting User Content to the Site, you grant BLDit a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide, transferable, sublicensable license to use, reproduce, modify, adapt, publish, translate, display, and distribute such content in connection with:

In any event, BLDit’s total aggregate liability to you for any claims arising out of or relating to these Terms, the use of the Site, or the Services shall be strictly limited to the greater of (i) one hundred Canadian dollars ($100 CAD) or (ii) the total amount you paid to BLDit, if any, in the six (6) months preceding the event giving rise to the claim.

c) Jurisdictional Exceptions
