By using outdoorcalc.com.au ("the site", "we", "us") you agree to these terms. They're written in plain language, but they are still legally binding. If you don't agree with them, please don't use the site.
What the site is
outdoorcalc.com.au is a free collection of calculators for outdoor and landscaping projects. It's a reference tool only. We are not a landscape designer, horticulturist, builder, or professional tradesperson.
Estimates, not advice
Every result on the site is an estimate. Calculators use simplified formulas based on average product coverage rates and typical installation practices. They can't account for every variable on your specific site — slope, drainage, soil compaction, product-brand differences, waste, or human error.
Before placing a significant order, confirm your requirements with your landscape supplier, builder, or a qualified tradie. The site explicitly does not provide:
- Engineering or structural advice
- Horticultural or agronomic advice
- Legal, financial or tax advice
- Advice specific to your property, soil type, or local climate
Your responsibility
You're responsible for the decisions you make using information from the site. That includes:
- Measuring your project area accurately
- Choosing appropriate products for your conditions
- Ordering enough material (we recommend adding 10% above calculated figures)
- Following safe installation practices
- Complying with local council regulations, Australian Standards, and any relevant building codes
Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, outdoorcalc.com.au, its operators, and any contributors are not liable for any loss, damage, cost or expense arising from your use of the site — including but not limited to over-ordering, under-ordering, product incompatibility, installation failure, or any consequential loss.
Nothing in these terms limits or excludes any guarantee, warranty, right or remedy that you have under the Australian Consumer Law that cannot lawfully be limited or excluded.
Advertising and third-party content
The site displays advertising served by Google AdSense and its partners. We don't choose which specific advertisers appear and we don't endorse them. Clicking an ad takes you to a third-party site we don't control — their terms and privacy practices are their own.
Intellectual property
The design, layout, text content and calculator logic on this site are either owned by us or used with permission. You're welcome to use the site, share links to it, and refer to it. You're not welcome to copy the site wholesale, scrape content for a competing site, or republish our text as your own.
The results produced by a calculator when you enter your own measurements are yours to use however you like.
Changes to the site and these terms
Calculators may be added, updated, corrected or retired at any time. We may also update these terms. The "last updated" date at the top of this page tells you when the current version was posted. Continued use of the site after a change counts as acceptance of the updated terms.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of Queensland, Australia. Any dispute about the site is subject to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Queensland.
