Platform Functionality

Assembler Expert connects individuals seeking product assembly, installation, delivery, or related services (“Customers”) with skilled service providers (“Technicians”). As a User, you authorize Assembler Expert to pair you with a Customer or Technician based on location, service type, preferences, and efficiency. The services facilitated through the Platform are collectively known as “Services,” and each transaction between a Technician and a Customer is a separate agreement.

 

Third-Party Services

The Platform may incorporate third-party software and services, which have their own Terms of Service and Privacy Policies. Your use of the Platform signifies compliance with these third-party policies.

Modifications to Terms

Assembler Expert may revise these Terms of Service. Any changes will take effect once you accept the updated Agreement. We may also alter hyperlinked information, with changes becoming effective upon posting. Your continued use of the Platform or Services indicates agreement to these modifications.

 

Charges for Services

As a Customer, using the Services incurs charges (“Charges”), encompassing fees, surcharges, and taxes.

All Charges are processed via a third-party service and are non-refundable.

Coupons received can be applied to Charges and are exclusive to the Platform. They are non-transferable and non-redeemable for cash, with certain restrictions. Assembler Expert may pre-authorize your payment method to verify funds and safeguard against unauthorized use. You are liable for any overdraft or NSF fees incurred due to authorization holds.

 

Fees for Service

Assembler Expert will provide you with a price quote for the service when you request it. Please note that this quote is subject to change until we receive confirmation from both you and the Technician.
