Terms of Service
Last updated: November 13, 2026
These terms are an agreement between you and Solutions Guru LLC ("Bid & Manage", "we", "us"), which operates bidandmanage.com (the "Service"). By creating an account or using the Service you agree to them. If you do not agree, please do not use the Service.
1. What Bid & Manage is
Bid & Manage is a directory and communication tool. Homeowners and business owners ("Owners") post projects and find contractors and subcontractors ("Contractors"). Contractors show their work, availability and reviews, and connect with Owners.
We are not a contractor and we are not a party to any agreement between an Owner and a Contractor. We do not perform, supervise, guarantee or insure any work. Contractors are independent businesses, not our employees or agents.
2. Accounts
You must be at least 18 and give accurate information. You are responsible for your password and for everything done through your account. Tell us promptly if you think someone else has used it.
3. Owners
- Owner accounts are free.
- When you post a project and mark it visible, member Contractors can see its description and photos, but not your name, phone number or email.
- Your contact details are shared with a Contractor only when you choose that Contractor or accept their request.
- You are responsible for deciding whom to hire. Before hiring, check licensing, insurance, references and get a written contract, as you would with any contractor.
4. Contractors
- You confirm that the information on your page is true, that the photos show your own work, and that you hold every license, permit and insurance policy the law requires for the work you offer.
- You will use Owner contact details only to discuss and carry out that Owner's project, and not for unrelated marketing or resale.
- When you take on a job through the Service, you agree to post progress updates with photos so the Owner can follow the work.
- You may link your Google business listing only if that listing is your own business.
5. Membership fees for Contractors
- The standard Pro membership is $99 per month plus a one-time $299 setup fee, charged with your first month. Prices shown at checkout apply if you have a gift or special offer.
- Membership renews automatically each month and is charged to the card you provide, until you cancel. Payments are processed by Square; we do not store your card number.
- You can cancel any time from your dashboard. Your page stays live until the end of the period already paid for. Except where the law requires otherwise, the setup fee and fees for periods already started are not refundable.
- Free periods and gift memberships have no cash value. When a free period ends, your page is taken out of search until you subscribe.
- We may change prices for future billing periods and will give you at least 30 days' notice by email.
6. Reviews
Only Owners who connected with a Contractor through the Service can review that Contractor here. Reviews must be honest and based on your own experience. Contractors may not offer payment or other benefits for reviews or pressure Owners to change them. Reviews labelled as coming from Google are supplied by Google and are subject to Google's terms. We may remove reviews that are fake, abusive or unlawful.
7. Your content
You keep ownership of the text and photos you upload. You give us permission to store, display and share them as needed to run the Service (for example, showing project photos to Contractors and job photos on a Contractor's page). Only upload content you have the right to share, and do not upload photos that show people's faces, documents or other private details without their permission.
8. Things you may not do
Do not post false or misleading information, impersonate anyone, harass other users, collect other users' data, upload unlawful or infringing content, interfere with the Service, or use it to get around paying for work or membership.
9. Suspension and ending accounts
You can stop using the Service at any time. We may hide a page, remove content, or suspend or close an account that breaks these terms or puts other users at risk.
10. Disclaimers
The Service is provided "as is". We do not verify every license, insurance policy, photo or statement on a Contractor's page, and we do not promise that any Contractor is suitable for your project or that any Owner will hire you. Availability shown on a Contractor's page is information supplied by the Contractor and is not a booking.
11. Limit of liability
To the fullest extent the law allows, Bid & Manage is not liable for the quality, safety, legality or timing of any work, for property damage or injury connected with a project, or for disputes between Owners and Contractors. Our total liability to you for any claim about the Service is limited to the greater of the fees you paid us in the 12 months before the claim or $100. Some places do not allow some of these limits, so parts of this section may not apply to you.
12. Disputes between users
Disputes about a job are between the Owner and the Contractor. We may, but do not have to, help the two sides communicate.
13. Changes to these terms
We may update these terms. If a change is significant we will email you or post a notice on the Service before it takes effect. Continuing to use the Service after that means you accept the new terms.
14. Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Michigan, USA, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules.
