Free Architectural Advice – Full Disclaimer

​

The Free Architectural Advice service offered by Houz Design is intended solely to provide informal, good-faith guidance to individuals seeking general architectural insight. This service is not intended to replace formal architectural contracts, technical design work, statutory submissions, or legal advice.

​

By using this service, you agree to the following terms:

• All advice provided is non-binding, non-contractual, and entirely neutral. It reflects our informal opinion based on the limited information you supply at the time of your enquiry.

• The content of any response provided by Houz Design must not be used:

  • To challenge the advice, designs, or actions of another professional or company

  • In any legal dispute or formal complaint

  • As written evidence to support, dispute, or escalate issues with another party

• We do not position ourselves in opposition to any other professional or contractor. Our intention is not to compare, criticise, or undermine third-party work — we simply offer honest, independent thoughts where requested.

• Submissions that appear to relate to legal disputes, ongoing claims, contractual disagreements, or formal professional negligence matters will not be responded to. We reserve the right to decline or ignore any enquiry that, in our sole discretion, we believe is inappropriate for this free advice service.

• You accept full responsibility for any use of the information we provide and agree that Houz Design accepts no liability whatsoever for outcomes, decisions, or consequences arising from your reliance on it.

• If your matter involves planning law, construction compliance, formal certification, or contractual disputes, you should seek advice from a suitably qualified professional, such as an architect, engineer, solicitor, or planning consultant.

​

This service is not a substitute for formal architectural instruction or professional consultancy. It is provided free of charge and without any obligation on the part of Houz Design to act on your behalf beyond the email exchange.
