Editorial Policy & Content Standards
How we create, review, and maintain trustworthy information about local home services, shops, and scrap buyers across India.
1. Our Mission
Home Maintenances exists to help people find verified local service providers (electricians, plumbers, painters, etc.), nearby shops, and scrap buyers quickly and safely. All editorial content on this platform is created to support that mission with clear, practical, and up-to-date information.
2. Editorial Independence & Standards
We maintain strict separation between editorial content and commercial interests. Recommendations, category guides, and how-to articles are written for the benefit of users, not for the highest bidder.
- Content is based on real user needs, local market knowledge, and verified platform data.
- We do not accept payment in exchange for favourable reviews or ranking of vendors.
- Featured or promoted listings are clearly labelled as such.
3. Author Expertise & Accountability
Articles and guides are produced by the Home Maintenances editorial team. Team members have hands-on knowledge of home services, vendor onboarding, and local market conditions in multiple Indian cities. Where specialist knowledge is required, we consult experienced professionals in the relevant trade.
4. Fact-Checking & Accuracy
We verify key facts before publishing:
- Service category descriptions and typical pricing ranges are cross-checked against real vendor data on the platform.
- City and locality information is kept current through our location database and user feedback.
- Claims about “verified” professionals refer to our internal verification process (documents + activity checks).
If we discover an error, we correct it promptly and note significant updates.
5. Corrections Policy
We welcome corrections. If you spot an inaccuracy:
- Email us at support@homemaintenances.in with the page URL and the correct information.
- We aim to review and respond within 3–5 business days.
- Substantive corrections are reflected with an updated “Last modified” date on the page.
6. Commercial Relationships & Disclosure
Home Maintenances operates a marketplace. Some vendors pay for higher visibility, featured placement, or subscription plans. These commercial relationships are disclosed as follows:
- Featured / promoted cards are visually marked.
- Subscription plans and advertising options are clearly explained on the pricing pages.
- Editorial recommendations are never sold.
7. User-Generated Content
Reviews, ratings, and business profiles submitted by users or vendors are subject to moderation. We remove content that is fraudulent, abusive, or violates our terms. We do not edit genuine user reviews for commercial reasons.
8. Privacy & Data
Any personal data collected through forms, leads, or contact tracking is handled according to our Privacy Policy. We do not sell user data.
9. Contact & Complaints
For editorial questions, corrections, or formal complaints about content:
- Email: support@homemaintenances.in

We take content quality and user trust seriously and will investigate every legitimate concern.
