Description

The Construction Contract is a legal document used in Oregon for outlining agreements between a Contractor and an Owner for construction projects. It specifies the scope of work, work site, and permits required, ensuring both parties understand their responsibilities. Key features include provisions for insurance, changes to the scope of work, and payment structures, allowing flexibility for cost adjustments due to change orders. The contract also includes a late payment clause and a warranty section that limits the Contractor's liability for defects. This form is useful for attorneys, partners, and owners who need a clear framework for the project, including paralegals and legal assistants who assist with drafting and reviewing such contracts. It is designed to protect both parties by clearly defining expectations and liabilities while providing easy filling and editing instructions to accommodate specific project needs.

FAQ

The statute of limitations This means that if you discover a problem with the construction, you must file a lawsuit within four years from the date you discovered the issue or should have reasonably discovered it.

In Oregon, parties who withhold retainage are limited to five percent of the amount earned with each progress payment. However, on large projects, retainage can end up being hundreds of thousands, or even millions, of dollars, withheld from payment even though it has been earned.

Texas law governs how retainage is applied to ensure fairness. Generally, no more than 10% of the contract value can be withheld as retainage. The funds are typically released once the project is substantially completed, meaning all major tasks are done, and only minor work remains.

Every subcontractor is entitled to receive payments on time. If any wage is unpaid, the professional has the right to file a lien against the property owner. Other terms include a supplier's lien if materials are supplied, a laborer's lien and a design professional's lien.

Oregon Retainage Requirements Retainage from any party may not exceed 5% of the value of the work completed.
