2. Governing Law
These Terms of Service are governed by the laws of the State of SC, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules.

4. Warranty
Rutherford Chimney Sweep stands behind its workmanship. Specific warranty terms – including duration and what is covered – are provided to the customer in writing at the time service is completed.

Rutherford Chimney Sweep does not extend or modify manufacturer warranties.
5. Severability
If any provision of these Terms of Service is found to be invalid or unenforceable under applicable law, that provision will be modified only to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable, or severed if modification is not possible. The remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect.
6. Services
Rutherford Chimney Sweep offers professional home services in Columbia, SC and nearby communities. All services are subject to availability and a professional assessment of the job site prior to or at the start of work. Some jobs booked through rutherfordchimneysweep.com may be carried out by qualified independent contractors or service professionals who work in coordination with Rutherford Chimney Sweep. In those cases, Rutherford Chimney Sweep takes care to work with experienced, vetted professionals, though it should be understood that not every person performing work will be a direct employee of the company.
7. Estimates and Pricing
Any estimate provided by Rutherford Chimney Sweep – whether given over the phone, through the website, or in person – is made in good faith based on the information available at the time.
