These are the standards every article on The UK Info is written and checked against.

Accuracy first

Australian building, planning and property rules differ between states, territories and councils. Where something depends on location we say so, and we link to the regulator or government page that sets the rule rather than repeating a number that may have changed.

No paid placement

We do not accept payment to include or rank a product, service or business. When an article mentions a local specialist, it is because the topic genuinely needs one, not because of a commercial arrangement.

Prices and figures

Costs vary widely with site conditions, access, materials and timing. Any figures we give are broad and indicative, and readers should rely on written quotes from licensed trades for their own project.

Not personal advice

Our articles are general information. For legal, financial, engineering or insurance decisions, speak to a qualified professional who can look at your circumstances.

Corrections

Rules change and we sometimes get things wrong. When we find an error or a change in the law, we update the article and revise the date.
