What is a Building Dispute?
A building dispute encompasses conflicts and disagreements that can arise during residential or commercial construction projects. These disputes often occur when one party involved in the project fails to fulfil their contractual obligations. Common issues that can lead to building disputes include:
- Quality and Defects: Disagreements may arise regarding the quality of workmanship or materials used in the construction, as well as the presence of defects or deficiencies.
- Delays and Variations: Disputes can occur due to project delays beyond agreed-upon timelines or unauthorised changes to the original scope of work.
- Payment Disputes: Conflicts may arise regarding payment terms, progress payments, or disputes over the amount owed for completed work.
- Contract Termination: Disagreements may occur when one party wishes to terminate the construction contract prematurely.
Resolving building disputes requires a thorough understanding of construction law and contractual obligations. As experienced construction lawyers, we can help you navigate these complex disputes and work towards a fair resolution.
