Terms of service

Short, plain, and the same for everyone.

Last updated 2026-11-11.

1. What we provide

Overnight Estimating (“we”) prepares construction cost estimates and quantity takeoffs from information supplied by you, the contractor (“you”). An estimate is a document for your review. It is not a quotation to your customer, not a design, not an inspection, and not a certification of compliance.

2. What you remain responsible for

You are the licensed contractor. You decide what to quote, you verify quantities and prices against the site, you obtain permits, and you are responsible for compliance with codes, standards and regulations where the work is done. We are not licensed in your jurisdiction and do not visit the site.

3. Accuracy

We prepare estimates carefully, from current supplier prices and published labor norms, and we list the assumptions we made. Prices change, photos hide things, and sites differ. We do not warrant that an estimate is free of error or that the work can be done for the estimated amount.

4. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, our total liability arising from any estimate is limited to the fee you paid for that estimate. We are not liable for lost profit, lost bids, delay, or consequential loss. Nothing here limits liability that cannot be limited by law.

5. Fees and payment

Fees are per estimate as published on the pricing page or as quoted in writing for larger work. The first estimate for a new customer is free. Invoices are due within 7 days. Prepaid packs are valid for 12 months and are not refundable once the first estimate in the pack is delivered.

6. Revisions

One round of revisions within 48 hours of delivery is included. Changes to the scope of the job after delivery are a new estimate, priced at the applicable tier.

7. Turnaround

Published turnaround times are targets, not guarantees. If we cannot meet a target we tell you before the deadline. Rush fees are refunded if a rush deadline is missed.

8. Confidentiality and data

We keep your customers’ addresses, your pricing, your templates and your photos confidential, and use them only to prepare your estimates. We do not use your jobs in marketing without written permission. Files are stored on Cloudflare infrastructure and deleted 90 days after delivery unless you ask us to keep a job history. You can ask us to delete everything at any time.

9. Intellectual property

The delivered estimate is yours to use, modify and send to your customers. Our templates, methods and price databases remain ours.

10. Acceptable use

Do not send material you do not have the right to share, and do not use the service for jobs you are not licensed to perform.

11. Changes

We may update these terms; the date at the top changes when we do. Continued use after a change means acceptance.

12. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of Taiwan (R.O.C.). Disputes we cannot settle by talking go to the courts of Taipei.
