Legal and compliance
Website Terms of Service
These terms govern your use of https://benitezcontractors.com. They cover the website only. Construction work is governed entirely by the separate written contract you sign before any work begins, and nothing on this website forms part of that contract or replaces it.
Estimates and calculator results are not quotes
Every cost figure on this site, including all calculator output, is a planning estimate for Orange County, California based on typical 2026 conditions. It is not an offer, not a quote, and not binding on either of us. Real pricing depends on your actual site conditions, your material selections, structural findings, and your city requirements, none of which a calculator can see. A binding price exists only in a signed written proposal issued after we have walked the space.
Accuracy of published information
We research and update the technical, permitting and regulatory content on this site carefully, and we say plainly where something is uncertain. California building codes, ADU statutes and city permit processes change, sometimes several times a year. Content that was accurate when published may not be current when you read it. Always confirm permit requirements and fees directly with your city building department before relying on them.
No professional advice relationship
Content on this site is general information. It is not engineering advice, legal advice, financial advice or tax advice, and reading it does not create a professional relationship. Structural questions require a licensed California structural engineer. Financing questions require a lender or financial advisor. We will tell you when a question is outside what a general contractor should answer.
Acceptable use
You may read, print and share this content for your own non commercial purposes. You may not scrape the site to republish it as your own, use it to train a commercial model that reproduces it verbatim, submit false information through our forms, or attempt to interfere with the operation or security of the site.
Third party links
We link to city building departments, state agencies and manufacturer documentation because those are the authoritative sources. We do not control those sites and are not responsible for their content or availability. A link is not an endorsement of anything beyond the specific information referenced.
Limitation of liability
To the extent permitted by California law, this website is provided as is, and we are not liable for indirect or consequential loss arising from your use of it or from reliance on general information published here. Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot lawfully be limited, and nothing here affects your rights under a signed construction contract.
Governing law and contact
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, and any dispute relating to the website is subject to the courts of Orange County, California. Questions can be directed to info@benitezcontractors.com or (714) 400-2204. This page is provided for transparency and reflects how this website actually operates. It should be reviewed by counsel before the site is published on the production domain.
