Terms of Service

Use of this site is on the terms below. They exist to be clear about what published guidance is and what it is not.

Reuse of Content

The text and layout of this site belong to its publisher. Short extracts with a credit and a link may be used freely; copying a page wholesale may not.

Currency of the Content

Reasonable care goes into keeping the content accurate. Standards and costs shift over time, and a reader should confirm anything that materially affects a decision.

Use at Your Own Risk

Decisions taken on the basis of anything read here are the reader's own. Nothing published here carries a guarantee of outcome, and no claim arising from one will be entertained beyond what the law requires.

Amendments

These terms may be revised. The version published on this page at the time of reading is the one that applies.

General Information Only

No article here constitutes advice for a specific project. Painting contractor work varies with the building, the site and the local rules, and only somebody who has examined the actual work can advise on it.

Third Party Sites

Other sites are linked on merit and nothing more. The linked organization, its services and its accuracy are its own affair.
