Description

The Construction Contract form outlines the agreement between a Contractor and Owner for residential construction in Salt Lake. It specifies the Project's scope, including labor and materials, and requires the Contractor to obtain necessary permits. Key features include clauses on soil conditions, insurance requirements, and the process for making changes to the scope of work through written 'Change Orders.' The contract also details payment structures, late payment consequences, and warranties for workmanship. This form is essential for attorneys, partners, owners, associates, paralegals, and legal assistants to ensure compliance with local regulations and to protect their interests in construction projects. By outlining responsibilities and liabilities clearly, it serves as a crucial tool for dispute prevention and resolution. Users must fill in project-specific details and should review local building permit requirements to avoid consequences associated with construction without permits.
