Q. Why do I need a contract with every sub-contractor?
A.
If you are building your own home and want to be your own
Construction Contractors, then each sub-contractor is a
separate entity that has to be contractually bound. This insures
you against all the problems you never thought would arise.
Q.
Why do I need all these forms? Doesn’t the quote the builder gives
me do the same thing?
A.
NO! The forms we use become binding contracts that insure your
rights are being addressed. Quotes say nothing about the “fine
print” problems that always seem to arise.

Q.
I’ve hired just one
Construction Contractor to build my entire house. Do I
have to worry about all these contracts even though I’ve hired
him to do this?
A.
Yes! It’s important to know how to make sure your
Construction Contractor is doing what is supposed to be done. With our information and
services, we will give you the tools required to understand the
administration needs of your construction endeavor. Why trust
your dream to someone else? To police anything, you must understand
the rules!
A.
Absolutely not. First of all, if your
Construction Contractor is truly a reputable
professional, he will have no problems with this format. Secondly,
most forms can be slightly modified if the need arises.
Q.
What are some examples of these problems that could cost me money?
A.
The list of “what-ifs” is unlimited. In construction, if something
can possibly go wrong, it will. For instance, could you imagine
the liabilities involved if a contractor gets hurt on your property?
What if the builder uses the wrong material, changes your flooring,
or forgets to put a window in? Do you know what your rights are
in these cases? Also, the contractor may ask to be paid for something
that in actuality was not fully completed. Would you be able to
pick up on this before he was paid? You will sometimes find that
once a
Construction Contractor is paid, there is less of an incentive for him
to complete the job. If all of the forms in our package are in
place, these problems will be greatly minimized, if not eliminated
completely.
