Description

The Contract Contractor Building Format in Georgia is a comprehensive document designed to outline the agreement between a contractor and an owner for constructing a residential project. Key features of this contract include a detailed scope of work that specifies the plans and specifications, as well as provisions addressing the work site location, necessary permits, soil conditions, and insurance requirements. The contract emphasizes that the contractor is not responsible for soil conditions and outlines the owner's obligation to provide necessary surveys and title opinions prior to the start of construction. Changes to the scope of work can be made through written Change Orders, with costs expected to be covered by the owner. Payment terms can be either cost-plus or fixed fee, with specific provisions for late payments and collection. The contractor's warranty is limited to defects in workmanship for one year. This form is particularly useful for attorneys, partners, owners, associates, paralegals, and legal assistants involved in the building and renovation sectors, providing them with a clear and enforceable framework for construction projects while minimizing potential disputes.
