Effective date: 30 August 2026
Last updated: 30 August 2026

1. About These Terms

These Terms of Use (“Terms”) govern your use of https://brandboa.com/ (“Website”) and the services, information and materials made available by BRAND BOA.

The Website is operated by:

Legal business name: BRI BOA Ltd.
Trading name: BRAND BOA
Registered address: Suite 41, 101 Clapham High Street, London, SW4 7TB, England
Company number: 14749905
Email: contact@briboa.com

In these Terms, “BRAND BOA,” “we,” “us” and “our” refer to BRI BOA Ltd. “You,” “your” and “customer” refer to the person or organisation using the Website or purchasing our services.

2. Acceptance of These Terms

By accessing the Website, submitting an enquiry, requesting a quotation or purchasing our services, you confirm that you have read and agree to these Terms.

If you are using the Website or ordering services on behalf of a company or other organisation, you confirm that you have authority to bind that organisation.

If you do not agree to these Terms, you must not use the Website or purchase our services.

Our Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy also apply to your use of the Website.

3. Business and Professional Use

Our quantity take-off, cost-estimating and related construction services are primarily intended for contractors, subcontractors, developers, consultants, suppliers and other business or professional customers.

If you purchase our services as a consumer, nothing in these Terms excludes or restricts any mandatory consumer rights that apply to you under the laws of your country or state.

4. Our Services

BRAND BOA may provide services including:

  • Construction quantity take-offs
  • Material quantity schedules
  • Cost estimates
  • Marked-up construction drawings
  • Trade-specific take-offs
  • Bid-preparation support
  • Construction contract documents
  • Related estimating and consultancy services

The exact scope, price, deliverables and expected completion date for each project will be stated in our quotation, proposal, order confirmation or separate Service Agreement.

If there is a conflict between these Terms and a project-specific written agreement, the project-specific agreement will take priority in relation to that project.

5. Quotations and Formation of a Contract

A quotation is based on the drawings, specifications and project information available when it is prepared. Unless stated otherwise, a quotation is valid for 30 calendar days.

A binding service contract is formed when:

  • You accept our quotation or proposal in writing;
  • We confirm acceptance of your order; and
  • Any required deposit or advance payment has been received.

We may decline a project before confirming acceptance, including where the information provided is incomplete, the requested timetable is not achievable or the project falls outside our available expertise.

6. Customer Responsibilities

You are responsible for providing:

  • Complete and legible construction drawings
  • The latest drawing revisions
  • Relevant specifications, schedules and addenda
  • The correct project location
  • The required measurement system
  • The required scope and trades
  • Your preferred deliverable format
  • Any applicable deadlines or tender requirements
  • Prompt responses to technical questions

You must notify us immediately if drawings, specifications, revisions or project requirements change.

You confirm that:

  • You have the right and authority to provide all submitted documents to us;
  • Our use of those documents will not infringe another person’s rights;
  • The information you provide is accurate and complete to the best of your knowledge; and
  • The documents do not contain unnecessary personal information, malware or unlawful material.

We are not responsible for errors, omissions, delays or additional costs caused by incomplete, inaccurate, illegible, outdated or inconsistent information supplied by you or a third party.

7. Quantity Take-Offs and Estimates

Our quantity take-offs and cost estimates are prepared using professional judgement and the information available at the time of preparation.

Unless expressly agreed otherwise:

  • Quantities are based on the drawings and specifications supplied by the customer.
  • Measurements may be based on stated assumptions where information is missing or unclear.
  • Assumptions, exclusions and qualifications form part of the deliverable.
  • Cost estimates reflect available pricing information and the stated project location.
  • Prices may vary between suppliers, contractors, cities, states and countries.
  • Labour, material, equipment, tax, freight and market rates may change after the estimate is prepared.
  • Concealed conditions and matters not shown in the documents are excluded.
  • Site inspections, design verification and physical measurements are not included.
  • Waste factors, overlaps, laps, cuts and allowances will be applied only where stated or considered appropriate.
  • A take-off does not guarantee the amount a supplier will deliver, charge or invoice.

Our deliverables are professional estimates, not guarantees of final construction cost, material usage, tender success or project profitability.

8. Customer Verification

You must review every deliverable before:

  • Submitting a tender or bid
  • Entering into a construction contract
  • Ordering materials
  • Engaging labour or subcontractors
  • Starting construction
  • Making financial or commercial commitments

You remain responsible for the final bid, price, procurement decision and construction work.

BRAND BOA does not replace the architect, engineer, quantity surveyor, contractor, building-control authority or other licensed professional responsible for the project.

Our services do not include architectural design, structural engineering, code compliance, legal advice, safety advice or professional engineering certification unless expressly stated in a separate written agreement and provided by a suitably qualified professional.

9. Assumptions, Exclusions and Clarifications

Where drawings or specifications are unclear, incomplete or inconsistent, we may:

  • Make reasonable estimating assumptions;
  • Request clarification from you;
  • Exclude the affected work;
  • Provide a provisional quantity or allowance; or
  • Pause the project until sufficient information is received.

You are responsible for reviewing and accepting or correcting all assumptions and exclusions before relying on the deliverable.

Additional work resulting from revised drawings, new information, changed specifications or expanded scope may require a revised fee and delivery date.

10. Delivery Times

Our standard target is to complete quantity take-off services within approximately seven working days after receiving:

  • Complete project documents;
  • All requested clarifications;
  • Written acceptance of our quotation; and
  • Any required payment.

This is a target rather than a guaranteed deadline unless we expressly confirm a fixed deadline in writing.

Delivery dates may change because of project complexity, document quality, revisions, customer delays, technical problems, events outside our reasonable control or additional services requested after work begins.

11. Prices, Payments and Taxes

Service fees depend on the size, complexity, trades, document quality, turnaround time and required deliverables for each project.

Unless stated otherwise:

  • Prices will be provided through a written quotation.
  • Payment must be made in the currency shown on the invoice.
  • Work may not begin until the required deposit or advance payment is received.
  • Final deliverables may be withheld until all outstanding amounts are paid.
  • The customer is responsible for applicable VAT, sales tax, withholding tax, bank fees and currency-conversion charges.
  • Overdue amounts may result in suspension of current or future services.

Payment does not constitute acceptance of incomplete or defective work and does not affect any mandatory legal rights.

12. Cancellations and Refunds

Cancellation and refund conditions may be stated in the relevant quotation or Service Agreement.

Unless otherwise agreed:

  • You may cancel an order by contacting us in writing.
  • If work has not started, we will normally refund amounts paid, less any non-recoverable transaction or administrative costs permitted by law.
  • If work has started, you must pay for work completed and costs reasonably committed up to the cancellation date.
  • Completed and delivered services are not normally refundable merely because a bid was unsuccessful or the final project cost differed from the estimate.
  • Where our service does not conform to the agreed scope, we will consider an appropriate correction, repeat performance or refund as required by applicable law.

Nothing in this section limits statutory cancellation or refund rights that cannot legally be excluded.

13. Reviewing and Reporting Errors

You should review deliverables promptly and notify us as soon as reasonably possible if you believe there is an error.

Your notice should identify:

  • The project and deliverable;
  • The drawing, page, trade or item concerned;
  • The suspected error; and
  • Any supporting calculation or information.

Where we confirm that an error was caused by us, we will use reasonable efforts to correct the affected deliverable without an additional professional fee.

Corrections do not include changes arising from revised drawings, newly supplied information, scope additions, design development or customer-requested alternatives.

14. Intellectual Property

The Website and its original content—including text, graphics, branding, layouts, calculation methods, templates, schedules and downloadable materials—are owned by or licensed to BRAND BOA and are protected by intellectual-property laws.

You may not, without prior written permission:

  • Copy or republish substantial Website content;
  • Use the BRAND BOA name, logo or branding;
  • Sell, license or commercially exploit our templates or methods;
  • Remove copyright, trademark or proprietary notices;
  • Scrape, reproduce or systematically extract Website content; or
  • Present our content or credentials as your own.

You may share links to publicly available Website pages, provided you do not imply an association, approval or endorsement that does not exist.

15. Ownership and Use of Deliverables

After full payment, you receive a non-exclusive licence to use the final deliverables for the project and purpose identified in the quotation.

Unless expressly agreed otherwise:

  • BRAND BOA retains ownership of its underlying templates, systems, methods, libraries and know-how.
  • Deliverables may not be resold, repackaged or used for unrelated projects.
  • Third parties may not rely on a deliverable without our written permission.
  • You may share deliverables with project owners, contractors, subcontractors, consultants and suppliers where reasonably necessary for the named project.
  • Drafts, working files and internal calculations are not part of the final deliverables.

16. Customer Documents

You retain ownership of drawings, specifications and other original materials supplied by you.

You grant BRAND BOA a limited licence to store, reproduce, review, mark up and share those materials with authorised employees, estimators, consultants and service providers solely as necessary to:

  • Prepare and deliver the requested services;
  • Maintain project records;
  • Resolve questions or disputes; and
  • Comply with legal and professional obligations.

Our handling of personal information is described in our Privacy Policy.

17. Confidentiality

We will take reasonable steps to keep non-public project information confidential and use it only for service delivery, administration and lawful business purposes.

Confidentiality obligations do not apply to information that:

  • Is already publicly available;
  • Was lawfully known to us without restriction;
  • Is received lawfully from another source;
  • Is independently developed without using the confidential information; or
  • Must be disclosed by law, court order or regulatory authority.

If a project requires enhanced confidentiality, a non-disclosure agreement should be signed before sensitive documents are submitted.

18. Website Information

Website articles, guides, examples, sample contracts, software reviews and other content are provided for general educational and informational purposes.

Website content:

  • Is not project-specific professional advice;
  • Is not architectural, engineering, legal, tax or financial advice;
  • May not reflect your jurisdiction or particular circumstances;
  • May become outdated; and
  • Should not be relied upon as a substitute for qualified professional advice.

You are responsible for evaluating information before relying on it.

The Website may contain affiliate links. If you follow an affiliate link and purchase a product or service, BRAND BOA may receive a commission at no additional cost to you.

Affiliate relationships do not guarantee that a third-party product or service is suitable for your project.

Third-party websites, software, products and services operate under their own terms and privacy policies. We do not control and are not responsible for:

  • Their content or availability;
  • Their pricing or representations;
  • Their products or services;
  • Their privacy or security practices; or
  • Transactions between you and the third party.

20. Acceptable Use

You must not:

  • Use the Website for unlawful, fraudulent or abusive purposes;
  • Attempt to gain unauthorised access to the Website, servers or databases;

We may restrict or terminate access where we reasonably believe these Terms have been breached.

21. Website Availability

We aim to keep the Website available and accurate, but we do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free access.

We may suspend, withdraw, restrict, update or change any part of the Website for maintenance, security, operational or business reasons.

You are responsible for using suitable antivirus and security protection when accessing websites or downloading files.

22. Disclaimer of Warranties

We will perform contracted services with reasonable care and skill.

Except for express contractual commitments and rights that cannot legally be excluded, the Website and its general content are provided on an “as available” basis. We do not guarantee that:

  • The Website will always be available or secure;
  • Website content will be complete, accurate or current;
  • A particular service will be suitable for every project;
  • An estimate will match final quotations or construction costs;
  • A customer will win a bid or achieve a particular profit; or
  • Third-party products or services will meet your requirements.

23. Limitation of Liability

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability where doing so would be unlawful, including liability for:

  • Death or personal injury caused by negligence;
  • Fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation;
  • Wilful misconduct; or
  • Rights and liabilities that cannot legally be excluded.

Subject to the above and to the fullest extent permitted by law:

  • BRAND BOA will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, exemplary or consequential loss.
  • BRAND BOA will not be liable for loss of profit, revenue, business, contracts, opportunities, goodwill, anticipated savings or data.
  • BRAND BOA will not be liable for losses caused by inaccurate, incomplete, inconsistent or revised customer documents.
  • BRAND BOA will not be liable for changes in labour, materials, equipment, freight, tax, exchange rates or market conditions.
  • BRAND BOA will not be liable for decisions made without properly reviewing the assumptions, exclusions and deliverables.
  • BRAND BOA’s total aggregate liability arising from a particular service order will not exceed the fees paid to us for that service order.

These limitations apply whether the claim arises in contract, negligence, misrepresentation, breach of statutory duty or otherwise, but only to the extent permitted and considered reasonable under applicable law.

24. Indemnity for Business Users

If you use the Website or services for business purposes, you agree to indemnify BRAND BOA against reasonable losses, liabilities, costs and claims resulting from:

  • Your unlawful use of the Website;
  • Your breach of these Terms;
  • Documents submitted without sufficient rights or permission;
  • Your infringement of a third party’s intellectual-property or confidentiality rights; or
  • Materially false or misleading information supplied by you.

This obligation does not apply to the extent that a loss was caused by BRAND BOA’s own breach, negligence or misconduct.

25. Events Outside Our Control

We will not be responsible for delays or failures caused by events outside our reasonable control, including:

  • Natural disasters or extreme weather;
  • War, terrorism, civil unrest or government action;
  • Power, internet or telecommunications failures;
  • Cyberattacks;
  • Industrial disputes;
  • Supplier or software-platform failures; or
  • Serious illness or other unexpected operational disruption.

We will take reasonable steps to reduce the effect of such events and resume performance when reasonably possible.

26. Suspension and Termination

We may suspend or terminate services where:

  • Payments remain overdue;
  • Required information is not supplied;
  • The requested work may be unlawful or professionally inappropriate;
  • You materially breach these Terms;
  • Continuing the work could expose either party to legal, security or reputational risk; or
  • You behave abusively or threateningly towards our staff or contractors.

Termination does not affect rights, payment obligations or liabilities that arose before termination.

27. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms to reflect changes in our services, business practices or legal obligations.

The revised Terms will be posted on this page with a new “Last updated” date. Changes will apply from the date of publication and will not normally alter an existing confirmed order unless required by law or agreed by both parties.

28. General Provisions

If any part of these Terms is found to be unlawful or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue in effect.

A failure or delay in enforcing a right does not waive that right.

You may not transfer your rights or obligations under a service contract without our written permission. We may transfer our rights and obligations as part of a genuine business reorganisation, merger or sale, provided this does not materially reduce your rights.

These Terms, together with the accepted quotation, Privacy Policy and any project-specific agreement, constitute the agreement between the parties concerning the relevant subject matter.

Nothing in these Terms creates a partnership, employment relationship, joint venture or agency relationship between you and BRAND BOA.

29. Governing Law and Jurisdiction

These Terms and any dispute arising from them are governed by the laws of England and Wales.

If you are acting for business purposes, the courts of England and Wales will have exclusive jurisdiction, unless a separate written Service Agreement states otherwise.

If you are acting as a consumer, you retain any mandatory rights and jurisdictional protections provided by the laws applicable where you live.

Before beginning formal proceedings, both parties should make reasonable efforts to resolve the dispute through good-faith discussions.
