DO I NEED A CONTRACT?The short answer to the question 'Do I need a Contract?' is YES. The reason is simply to ensure that both parties are clear as to the extent of their obligations and that there is something in writing to confirm the agreement, just in case.
More often than not a dispute of some sort arises on a building project. It may be as to whether or not an item of work was included in the price or is an extra, it may be the time for completion of the project, it may be the amount of labour that was to be on the site or the margin to be charged. If you use the BUILDRIGHT TM Conditions of Contract, all of these matters will be addressed and the parties will have certainty helping reduce the likelihood of a dispute arising. |
