Terms of use

Last updated 1 October 2026 ยท Version 1.0

Draft for design. This page shows the structure and tone. The wording must be reviewed by a solicitor before launch.

These terms apply when you use TradesIreland.ie, whether you're searching for a tradesperson or listing a business. Please read them alongside our privacy notice.

Important: TradesIreland.ie is a directory. We don't carry out work, and any agreement for a job is between the customer and the business.

About the service

TradesIreland.ie lets customers find and contact trade businesses in Ireland, and lets businesses create listings. Using the site to search and contact businesses is free.

Accounts

  • You must be 18 or over to create an account.
  • Keep your log-in details secure. You're responsible for activity on your account.
  • Give accurate information and keep it up to date.

Rules for business listings

  • Only list a business you own or are authorised to manage.
  • Don't claim qualifications, registrations or insurance you don't hold.
  • Photos must be of your own work, or used with permission.
  • We may edit, suspend or remove listings that break these rules.

Reviews

Reviews must be honest accounts of a real experience. Businesses must not write reviews of themselves or competitors, or offer incentives for positive reviews. Our review guidelines explain how we moderate.

  • Pro and Featured plans are billed monthly or annually in advance, plus VAT.
  • You can cancel at any time; paid features continue until the end of the current period.
  • Featured placement improves position but never affects ratings, reviews or verification.

Verification

The Verified badge means we checked certain documents on a particular date. It is not a guarantee of the quality of work, and customers should make their own checks.

Our liability

We take care to keep the directory accurate but can't guarantee that listing information is complete or current. To the extent permitted by law, we're not liable for work carried out by businesses listed on the site. Nothing in these terms affects your statutory rights as a consumer.

Governing law

These terms are governed by Irish law, and the Irish courts have jurisdiction.
