Dregvor Architecture Ltd provides architectural design, planning consultation, project management, and related professional services ("Services"). Our Services are provided on a professional basis in accordance with architectural standards and best practices.
All Services are provided subject to the terms and conditions outlined in this agreement and any specific service agreements or proposals mutually agreed upon in writing.
The scope of work for any project is defined in a detailed brief, proposal, or engagement letter provided to you prior to commencement. Any work undertaken by us shall be limited to the scope defined in such documentation.
Changes to the scope of work must be documented in writing and may result in adjustments to fees and timelines. We reserve the right to suspend work if scope changes are requested without corresponding adjustments to terms.
Fees for our Services shall be as agreed in writing in advance. Payment terms are typically as follows:
Invoices are payable within 30 days of issue unless otherwise agreed. Late payments may incur interest charges at the statutory rate or 8% per annum above the Bank of England base rate, whichever is greater, in accordance with the Late Payment of Commercial Debts (Interest) Act 1998.
Fees are exclusive of Value Added Tax (VAT) unless otherwise stated. VAT will be added to invoices at the applicable rate.
All original designs, drawings, documents, and materials created by us in the course of our engagement ("Work Product") remain the intellectual property of Dregvor Architecture Ltd until all fees have been paid in full.
Upon full payment of all fees, you are granted a non-exclusive license to use the Work Product for the project for which it was created. This license does not permit you to modify, reproduce, or license the Work Product to third parties without our prior written consent.
You retain ownership of any materials, information, or content you provide to us. We may use general methodologies and principles developed through our work for other projects, provided that confidential information specific to your project is not disclosed.
Both parties agree to maintain the confidentiality of all sensitive information shared during our engagement, including project details, specifications, budgets, and business information.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, our total liability arising from or related to these Terms and our Services shall not exceed the total fees paid by you for the Services in the twelve (12) months preceding the claim.
In no event shall we be liable for indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or punitive damages, including but not limited to lost profits, lost revenue, lost data, or business interruption, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages.
We shall not be liable for delays or failures in performance resulting from circumstances beyond our reasonable control, including acts of God, natural disasters, pandemics, government actions, or force majeure events.
Our Services are provided in accordance with the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) standards and the professional codes of conduct applicable to registered architects in the United Kingdom.
We do not warrant that our designs will obtain planning permission, building regulation approval, or comply with all applicable laws and regulations. Such approvals remain the responsibility of you and relevant statutory authorities.
