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.

External Links

Links to third party sites are provided where they are useful. The linked organization, its services and its accuracy are its own affair.

Use at Your Own Risk

The reader decides what to do with what they read here. To the extent permitted by law, no liability arises from its use.

Copyright

The writing on this site is not free for reuse. A brief quotation with attribution and a link is fine, wholesale reproduction is not permitted.

Not Advice for Your Job

Nothing published here is professional advice. Guides describe how house painting work is generally approached, which is not the same as advice about a particular property, and they should not be relied on as though it were.

Amendments

These terms may be revised. No separate notice is given, so the page itself is the reference.

No Warranty of Accuracy

Every effort is made to keep this material correct, without any guarantee that it is. Standards and costs shift over time, and a reader should confirm anything that materially affects a decision.
