Utah Owners claim for damages for delay caused by contractors is a legal action that allows the Owners to recover monetary damages from a contractor for losses caused by the contractor’s non-performance or delayed performance of the contract. These types of claims can include consequential damages, liquidated damages, and time-related damages. Consequential damages refer to the financial losses suffered by the Owner due to the contractor’s delay in completion of the project. Liquidated damages are pre-determined penalties for the contractor’s failure to fulfill their obligations, as stated in the contract. Time-related damages are the costs associated with the Owner having to extend the contract period in order to compensate for the contractor’s delay.
