Dealing with Defects
Defects remain one of the most common and often contentious issues encountered on construction projects.
This informative session delivered by Jay Balmer and Lucy Milnthorp from the Sintons Construction team will provide a practical overview of how defects are defined, identified and managed throughout the lifecycle of a project, from construction through to completion and beyond.
The presentation will explore the treatment of defects under both JCT and NEC contracts, highlighting the key differences in approach and the responsibilities of the parties involved.
Attendees will also gain an understanding of the legal principles that underpin defect claims, including common areas of dispute, potential remedies and best practice for managing risk.
Whether you are involved in project delivery, contract administration or commercial management, this session will offer valuable insights into navigating defect-related issues with greater confidence and clarity.
