Terms of Service

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your use of hiltonheadmarineconstruction.com (the “Site”). “We”, “us”, and “our” refer to the operator of the Site. By accessing the Site or contacting us through it, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Site.

Nature of the service

The Site is a marketing and lead-generation service for marine construction and dock repair in the Hilton Head Island and Bluffton area of South Carolina. It provides information about that work and a way to request a quote or contact us. We do not perform construction, installation, repair, or any other contracting work ourselves. That work is carried out by an independent, licensed marine contractor who is solely responsible for the quality, safety, and legality of their services.

Submitting a form or contacting us is a request for information or a quote — it is not a contract, and it does not commit anyone to any work. Any project that goes ahead is governed by a separate written agreement between you and the contractor performing it, and that agreement controls if it conflicts with these Terms.

Requesting a quote and contacting us

Give accurate information when you request a quote so we can respond usefully. We pass your request to the marine contractor suited to the work so they can contact you and quote it. We do not promise a particular response time through the Site.

Calls and texts about your request

We do not operate a text-message subscription program. The quote form includes a checkbox — never pre-checked — that you must check to submit the form, confirming that we may phone or text the number you provide about that request and the service you asked about. This consent is limited to your request; it is not marketing, and we do not use it to enroll you in anything ongoing. If you would rather not give it, contact us by phone or by email at support@hiltonheadmarineconstruction.com instead.

• Message and data rates may apply depending on your mobile phone service plan.
• Reply STOP to any text to opt out. Tell us on a call if you no longer want calls.
• Carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages.

How we handle the information tied to this consent is described in the Privacy Policy.

Estimates and pricing

Any estimates, price ranges, material specifications, or timelines mentioned on the Site are approximate and for general information only. Actual cost and schedule depend on site conditions, materials, labor, permitting requirements, and other factors specific to your property. A binding price can be given only by the contractor, after an on-site assessment by a qualified professional.

Independent contractors

The contractor we refer work to is an independent business. We do not employ, supervise, or control them, and we are not responsible for their work, conduct, licensing, insurance, or compliance with the laws and regulations that apply to your project. Before you hire anyone, confirm that they hold the licenses and insurance required for the work in your jurisdiction.

Informational content, not professional advice

Content on the Site, including guidance about permitting, insurance, and how docks fail, is general information only. It is not legal, engineering, financial, or other professional advice, and it does not account for your specific situation. Rules and agency practice change. Confirm anything that matters with the relevant authority (for example, SCDES or the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers) or a qualified professional before you act on it.

Images and media

Photographs and images on the Site are for illustration only. Some may be stock photography, digitally generated, or representative examples rather than projects completed for a specific customer. Finished work varies from anything shown here.

Acceptable use

You agree not to:

• Use the Site for any unlawful purpose or in violation of these Terms.
• Submit false information, or another person’s information without their permission.
• Attempt to disrupt the Site, probe it for vulnerabilities, or bypass its security.
• Scrape, harvest, or bulk-collect content or data from the Site without our written permission.
• Send automated queries or use the forms to distribute spam.

Intellectual property

You may view and print pages for your own, non-commercial use in evaluating our services. Any other copying, republishing, or use requires our prior written permission.

Third-party links

The Site links to third-party websites, such as government agencies, for your convenience. We do not control those sites and are not responsible for their content or practices.

Disclaimer of warranties

The Site and its content are provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the Site will be uninterrupted, error-free, or secure, or that any content, estimate, or regulatory information on it is complete or current.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for any loss of data, revenue, or profits, arising out of your use of the Site, your reliance on its content, or any services performed by a contractor referred through the Site. This includes, without limitation, damages for property damage, personal injury, delays, or financial loss. Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited under applicable law.

Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold us harmless from claims, losses, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising from your misuse of the Site or your breach of these Terms.

Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. The “Last updated” date above shows the current version. Your continued use of the Site after a change means you accept the updated Terms.

Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of South Carolina, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. Any dispute relating to the Site will be brought in the state or federal courts located in South Carolina.
