Referral Service Disclosure — Draft

How Plumbing Calls Work

This page explains the business relationship behind Bismarck Plumbing Connect and is intentionally more direct about the operator/provider distinction than the normal service pages. The final wording must be reviewed against the actual production call flow, legal operator, provider agreements, and telephony setup before publication.

Bismarck Plumbing Connect Is a Marketing and Referral Service

Bismarck Plumbing Connect is a plumbing marketing and referral service. Calls may be routed to an independent plumbing provider. Bismarck Plumbing Connect does not itself directly perform the plumbing work.

The website should not imply that an independent provider is an employee of Bismarck Plumbing Connect, a company office of Bismarck Plumbing Connect, a technician directly employed by the website operator, or automatically licensed, insured, or otherwise credentialed unless that fact is separately verified. The final disclosure should match the actual provider relationship.

What to Have Ready When You Call

Do not approach gas, energized electrical equipment, sewage, floodwater, an excavation, or another unsafe area to gather extra information. In an immediate gas, fire, electrical, or life-safety emergency, contact 911 or the relevant utility before making a plumbing-service call.

Who Performs Plumbing Work

An independent plumbing provider may evaluate or perform accepted plumbing work. Bismarck Plumbing Connect does not itself directly perform the plumbing work. The final legal terms should explain who contracts with the customer, who quotes the work, who handles payment, and who is responsible for the work.

Verify before authorizing workBefore authorizing work, a customer may verify applicable North Dakota plumbing credentials through the North Dakota State Plumbing Board.

Calling does not itself guarantee provider acceptance, a particular appointment, dispatch, an immediate answer, a particular arrival time, or a specific repair result. Rapid-service claims are not included unless the final production arrangement separately supports and approves them.

Phone-Based Service Request

The current website is intended to use the phone as the main plumbing service-request path. If the production website has no service-request form, online booking, service chat, or service-request email, this page may state that accurately. If those features are added later, the disclosure and privacy policy should be reviewed.

Call Recording and Telephony Data

The existing draft states that calls are not recorded. That statement must be verified against the final production phone platform before publication. Even without audio recording, the phone system may process call metadata. The Privacy Policy should describe the actual data handling after the phone and tracking stack is finalized.

Plumbing Service Area

The current named service communities are Bismarck, Mandan, Lincoln, Menoken, Sterling, and Wilton. See Plumbing Service Areas. The website does not claim countywide coverage, statewide coverage, or a public walk-in office through this disclosure.

Plumbing Information on the Website

Service pages and guides provide general information about symptoms, safety boundaries, choosing the right service, common diagnostic questions, and local plumbing conditions. They do not create a property-specific diagnosis. An independent provider evaluating the actual property is responsible for confirming the cause and repair options for accepted work.

Licensing and Credentials

The website should not imply that Bismarck Plumbing Connect itself holds a plumbing-contractor license unless that fact is actually established. Customers may verify the credentials of the provider performing work through the applicable public licensing resource. The final legal documents should distinguish the website operator from the provider without hiding or overstating either role.
