Legal

Terms & Conditions

These terms govern your use of this website. They are not the contract for building work — that is a separate, signed document, and nothing here replaces it.

About these terms

This website is operated by Home Constructive, a limited company registered in England and Wales. Our company registration number is 09287521 and our registered office is at 65 Churchill Road, Uxbridge, London UB10 0FN. In these terms, “we”, “us” and “our” mean that company, and “you” means anyone using the site.

By using this website you accept these terms. If you do not accept them, please do not use the site. We may amend them from time to time; the version published here at the moment you use the site is the version that applies, and the date of the last revision appears at the foot of the page.

Our privacy policy and cookie policy also apply to your use of the site, and should be read alongside these terms.

Using this website

You may use the site to read about our work, to look at completed projects and guides, and to make an enquiry. You may print or download extracts for your own reference in connection with a project you are considering.

You must not:

  • use the site for any unlawful or fraudulent purpose, or in any way that could damage it or interfere with anyone else's use of it;
  • copy, scrape, harvest or systematically extract content from the site, whether by hand or by automated means, other than for search engine indexing carried out in the ordinary way;
  • reproduce our content commercially, republish it, or present it as your own;
  • submit an enquiry that is false, misleading or made on behalf of someone who has not asked you to;
  • upload or send anything containing a virus or other harmful code, or attempt to gain unauthorised access to the site or to the systems on which it is hosted.

We may withdraw or restrict access to the site, or to any part of it, if these terms are breached.

The information on this site

The guides, service pages and project pages are published in good faith and are kept under review. They are general information about how building work in London usually proceeds, and about the rules that usually apply. They are not professional advice, and they are not a statement about your property.

Planning rules, permitted development rights and building regulations change. Article 4 directions, conservation area designations, listing, leases and covenants can all alter the position from one address to the next, sometimes from one side of a street to the other. Nothing on this site should be relied on as confirmation that a particular scheme is permissible or that a particular approach will suit your building. Before committing money, confirm the position with your local planning authority, with your title documents, and where structure is involved with a suitably qualified professional.

Photographs of completed projects show work we have carried out. They illustrate the kind of work we do rather than the specification of any work we might do for you.

Enquiries, surveys, estimates and quotations

This matters more than anything else on this page, so it is set out plainly.

An enquiry is not a booking. Sending an enquiry form, requesting a site survey or speaking to us does not create a contract, does not reserve a place in our programme and puts you under no obligation.

A site survey is free and carries no obligation on either side. Our attending, looking at the property and telling you what we think does not commit you to instruct us, or us to take the work.

An estimate is indicative. Where we give an approximate figure early on, before drawings, structural design or ground conditions are known, it is an informed opinion of likely order rather than an offer capable of acceptance. It is superseded by any quotation that follows.

A quotation is an offer, and it becomes binding only when a contract is signed. A quotation states what it includes, what it excludes and how long it stands open. It does not become a contract because you say yes on the telephone or reply to an email. The contract for building work comes into existence when both parties sign a written building contract, and that document — with its scope, drawings, specification, payment stages, programme and variation procedure — governs the work. Where anything in that contract differs from anything on this website, the contract prevails.

Nothing on this website is an offer. Descriptions of services, areas covered and the way we work are published for information. They do not oblige us to take on any particular job, and we may decline work without giving a reason.

Intellectual property

We own or are licensed to use everything on this site: the text, the guides, the photographs of our projects, the drawings and details reproduced here, our name and our logo. Those rights are protected by copyright and trade mark law and are reserved.

You may read the site, and print or save extracts for your own non-commercial use. You may link to any page on the site provided you do so fairly, without damaging our reputation and without suggesting an association or endorsement that does not exist.

You may not reproduce our text or photographs on another website, in marketing material, in a directory listing or in a document prepared for a third party without our written permission. We do not, as a rule, refuse a reasonable request — but we do ask to be asked.

If you send us drawings, photographs or documents with an enquiry, you keep whatever rights you have in them. You confirm that you are entitled to send them, and you allow us to use them for the purpose of assessing and quoting for the work.

Links to other websites

Where we link to another organisation — a planning portal, a regulator, a trade body or a supplier — we do so because we think the link is useful. We do not control those sites, we are not responsible for their content or their accuracy, and a link is not an endorsement of anything else they say or sell.

Availability of the site

We do not guarantee that this website will be available without interruption, or that it will be free of errors. It is provided free of charge, and we may change, suspend or withdraw all or part of it, including individual pages, without notice.

You are responsible for the arrangements you make to access the site, and for making sure that anyone who uses it through your connection is aware of these terms.

Limits on our liability

Nothing in these terms limits or excludes our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, for breach of the terms implied by consumer law that cannot lawfully be excluded, or for anything else that cannot lawfully be limited.

Subject to that:

  • the site is made available as it is, and we give no warranty that the information on it is complete, accurate or current;
  • we are not liable for any loss arising from your reliance on the general information published here, rather than on advice obtained for your own property;
  • we are not liable for loss of profit, loss of opportunity, or any indirect or consequential loss arising from use of the site;
  • we are not liable for loss caused by a virus or other harmful material that infects your equipment through your use of the site, or by a service interruption outside our reasonable control.

Our responsibility for building work is not governed by this page. It is governed by the signed building contract for that work, by the warranties and insurances described in it, and by your statutory rights.

If you are a consumer, you have legal rights in relation to services that are not carried out with reasonable care and skill. Nothing on this page affects those rights. Advice about them is available from Citizens Advice or from your local trading standards service.

General

If any part of these terms is found to be unenforceable, the rest continues to apply. If we do not insist on a term straight away, that does not prevent us from doing so later.

These terms, and any dispute arising out of them or out of your use of this website, are governed by the law of England and Wales, and the courts of England and Wales have jurisdiction. If you are a consumer resident elsewhere in the United Kingdom, you keep the benefit of any mandatory protections of the law where you live, and may bring proceedings in your own courts.
