Using the information on this site

Website terms

These terms apply when you use DifficultHomes.co.uk. By using the website, you agree to use it lawfully and to understand the limits of general online guidance.

General information, not an assessment

The articles provide general UK information. They cannot take account of a person’s health, movement, home construction, tenancy, finances or local services.

Nothing on the website replaces medical advice, an occupational therapy assessment, a building survey, structural advice or a contractor’s inspection. Seek suitable professional help before relying on information for safety-critical decisions or major expenditure.

Emergency and safety matters

Do not use the website as an emergency service. Call the appropriate emergency service where somebody is seriously injured or in immediate danger. Building work, gas, electrical installations, lifting equipment and fire precautions must be dealt with by people who are competent for the work and must follow current legal and technical requirements.

External organisations and suppliers

Links are provided because they may help a reader find further information. A link does not mean that we control or guarantee the organisation, its website or its services.

Check credentials, insurance, specifications, prices and terms before appointing a professional or buying equipment. Product availability and public-service arrangements may change after an article is written.

Website availability and acceptable use

We try to keep the site available and accurate, but access may be interrupted and mistakes can occur. You must not attempt to damage the site, bypass security, introduce malicious code, scrape it in a way that disrupts service or use its content unlawfully. We may restrict access needed to protect the website or other users.

Copyright

Unless stated otherwise, the website design, original writing and commissioned images belong to Prudent Plus Limited or are used with permission. You may print a reasonable extract for personal, non-commercial use. Republishing, selling or systematically copying the content requires written permission. Official pages reached through external links remain the property of their respective owners.

Liability and law

Nothing in these terms excludes liability that cannot legally be excluded. Subject to that, Prudent Plus Limited is not responsible for loss caused by treating general information as a personal assessment, by third-party services or by events outside reasonable control. These terms are governed by the law of England and Wales.
