You actually read this far?
Most people understandably have better things to do than read an entire Cookie Policy, so if you've made it this far, we think that deserves a little recognition.
Here's our unofficial Calico Cookie Clause:
Yes, actual edible cookies. Chocolate chip, double chocolate, shortbread — we're not particularly difficult to please.
You'll need to mention the Calico Cookie Clause when your project is booked so we know you genuinely found it here and didn't hear about it from somebody else.
And before anyone asks: accepting website cookies unfortunately does not count.
We're builders. We require biscuits.
Changes to this Cookie Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time, particularly where we change the technologies or third-party services used on our website or where applicable legal or regulatory requirements change.
