If you disagree with any provision, please do not use the site. How we handle inquiries and the nature of our guidance are described separately in the Terms of Service, which apply together with this document.
2. Who May Use the Site
Site materials are intended for an adult audience. By submitting an inquiry, you confirm that you are at least 18 years old and have the legal capacity to accept these Terms.
The site is not directed at children, and we do not knowingly collect their data. See the Privacy Policy for more detail.
3. Permitted Use of the Site
The site is open for free reading. For personal, non-commercial use you may:
- read any published materials without registration or restrictions;
- save individual pages or excerpts for personal needs;

By using the site, you agree not to:
- republish site materials in full or in substantial part on other resources;
- use materials for commercial purposes without our written consent;
- modify materials and present them as your own;
- remove authorship notices and rights statements;

This list is not exhaustive: any use that violates law or the rights of others is prohibited.
5. Site Materials and Intellectual Property
Texts, images, illustrations, design, logo, section structure, and material selection belong to RoofMeter Guide or are used by us on lawful grounds. They are protected by U.S. intellectual property law and international norms.
These Terms do not transfer ownership of site materials to you: you receive a limited, revocable, non-exclusive license to access them for personal non-commercial use. All rights not expressly granted remain with us.
If you believe site materials infringe your rights, contact us: identify the disputed material, the page address, and the basis for your claim, and we will review it within a reasonable time.
6. Feedback and Submitted Information
By submitting an inquiry through the form, you confirm the accuracy of contact details provided and your right to share the information in your message. Please do not send third-party personal data, confidential details, or documents.
Comments and suggestions about site materials may be used to improve content without obligation to you. We do not publish inquiries or share them with third parties except as described in the Privacy Policy.
7. Material Accuracy and Disclaimer of Warranties
Site materials are informational and reflect practice and observations at the time of publication. We prepare them in good faith but do not guarantee that every detail is current, complete, or suited to your situation.
The site and its content are provided “as is” and “as available” without express or implied warranties, including fitness for a particular purpose and uninterrupted operation. Decisions based on site materials are yours alone.
8. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, RoofMeter Guide, its owners, employees, and contractors are not liable for direct, indirect, incidental, or consequential damages related to use of the site, inability to access it, or decisions made based on its materials.
We are also not responsible for third-party resources linked from the site or for technical failures by connectivity and hosting providers.
If the law in your jurisdiction does not allow exclusion of certain warranties or limitation of liability, those provisions apply only to the extent permitted.
9. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify RoofMeter Guide and related parties for reasonable costs arising from your breach of these Terms, unlawful use of site materials, or infringement of third-party rights through your use of the site.
10. Links to Third-Party Resources
Some pages may link to external resources, such as a map showing our address. Those resources are operated by other organizations under their own rules. A link does not mean we endorse the resource or accept responsibility for it.
11. Governing Law
These Terms and related matters are governed by the laws of the State of Texas and applicable U.S. federal law, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Use of the site is permitted only in jurisdictions where such use does not violate local law.
12. Dispute Resolution
If you have a claim, contact us first using the details below. Most issues are resolved in correspondence faster and more simply than formal proceedings, so we ask for a chance to address the situation.
If a dispute is not resolved within thirty days, it will be settled through individual binding arbitration under American Arbitration Association rules. Arbitration takes place in Texas unless the parties agree otherwise.
The parties waive participation in class actions related to site use. Filing in small claims court at your place of residence remains available if the dispute falls within its jurisdiction.
13. Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms when site sections change or legal requirements change. The current version is always on this page, and the last update date appears at the top.
Material changes will be noted prominently on this page. By continuing to use the site after a new version is published, you accept the updated terms.
14. Termination of Access
You may stop using the site at any time. We may restrict site access for a user who violates these Terms without prior notice.
Provisions on material rights, warranty disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnification, and dispute resolution survive termination of use.
15. General Provisions
If any provision of these Terms is found invalid, the remaining provisions continue in effect. Failure to enforce a provision in one instance does not waive it in the future.
These Terms together with the Terms of Service, Privacy Policy, and Cookie Policy form the complete agreement between you and RoofMeter Guide regarding use of the site.

Important Information
The materials on this site provide knowledge about residential solar preparation — roof assessment, shade observation, utility review, and permit planning. They are intended to help you understand the steps involved before contacting licensed professionals.
RoofMeter Guide is not a solar installation company. We do not visit homes to mount panels, schedule installations, or provide project quotes. We are also not a retail store: we do not sell panels, inverters, batteries, or compare equipment brands and models.
We do not promise payback timelines, specific savings figures, zero utility bills, or free electricity. Tax credits, utility rates, and interconnection rules change by state and provider — consult official government and utility sources for current information.
Grid interconnection, work inside your electrical panel, and structural roof assessments require licensed electricians, engineers, and local authorities. Do not attempt these tasks yourself based on website content.
Every home differs in roof condition, shading, consumption, and budget. A plan that worked for a neighbor may not fit your property. Any decisions about system size, equipment, or contractors are yours alone.
