These Terms constitute a legally binding agreement between you and Ottawa Commercial Epoxy, a division of Justyn Rook Contracting, a sole proprietorship operated by Justyn Rook ("we," "us," "our," or "the Company").

All references to "the Company," "we," "us," or "our" include Justyn Rook as an individual. All liability protections, indemnification provisions, disclaimers, and limitations in these Terms apply equally to and protect Justyn Rook personally, in his individual capacity, and all personal assets.

We reserve the right to modify these Terms at any time without prior notice. Your continued use of the Website after any changes constitutes acceptance of the modified Terms. It is your responsibility to review these Terms periodically.

2. Nature of Services and Content

2.1 Informational Purposes Only

ALL CONTENT ON THIS WEBSITE IS PROVIDED FOR GENERAL INFORMATIONAL AND EDUCATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY. Nothing on this Website constitutes professional contracting advice. Always consult with qualified professionals for your specific situation.

2.2 No Professional-Client Relationship

Use of this Website does not create any professional-client, contractor-client, fiduciary, or advisory relationship between you and Ottawa Commercial Epoxy or Justyn Rook Contracting.

2.3 Safety Disclaimer

FLOOR COATING WORK INVOLVES CHEMICAL, DUST AND FIRE RISKS. Information provided on this website or through Coatings IQ is not a substitute for a site assessment, a slab moisture test, the product's data sheet and safety data sheet, or the advice of a qualified contractor. Do not grind, strip or coat a floor yourself to follow anything on this website. In Ontario, the owner of a project must determine whether designated substances such as asbestos, silica or isocyanates are present before the project begins (Occupational Health and Safety Act, s.30), and employers must make safety data sheets readily available to workers who may be exposed (s.38). We found no Ontario licence for floor coating contractors, and this website does not verify the training, coverage or credentials of any contractor. If strong fumes build up or anyone feels unwell during a coating job, get everyone out to fresh air and call emergency services from outside. Nothing on this website states whether any person may lawfully carry out such work; that is a question for the applicable legislation and a qualified professional.

2.4 Floor Condition, Permits and Regulatory Disclaimer

SLABS, FACILITIES AND REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS ARE SPECIFIC TO EACH BUSINESS. The condition and moisture of the slab, existing coatings and adhesives, the use of the space, public health, food safety, workplace, fire, accessibility, municipal and heritage requirements, lease terms and manufacturer instructions vary significantly across properties in the Ottawa area. Information on this website about coating systems, cure and return-to-service times, permits, regulations and costs is general and may not reflect your situation. Cure and return-to-service figures come from manufacturers' data sheets and vary by product and temperature. Cost ranges are aggregated from published sources and are not quotes. Always obtain written quotes, confirm permit and public health requirements with the City of Ottawa and Ottawa Public Health, and follow the data sheet for the product installed.

3. Coatings IQ (AI-Generated Content)

By using Coatings IQ or any AI features, you expressly acknowledge and agree that you use AI-generated content entirely at your own risk and will not rely on AI content for any decision without independent professional verification.

4. Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL OTTAWA COMMERCIAL EPOXY, JUSTYN ROOK CONTRACTING, JUSTYN ROOK (INDIVIDUALLY), OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE OWNERS, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, AFFILIATES, LICENSORS, SERVICE PROVIDERS, CONTRACTORS, INTERNS, SUPPLIERS, OR SUCCESSORS BE LIABLE FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE, OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES.

Our total aggregate liability shall not exceed CAD $100.00.
