Understanding Fair Trading Contracts
The Fair Trading Contract is a standardised building contract endorsed by the New South Wales government. Crafted to offer a balanced agreement for both homeowners and builders, it is regularly updated to align with legislative changes and industry norms. This contract provides a clear scope of work, a detailed progress payment schedule, and robust provisions for dispute resolution.
While it is generally more homeowner-friendly, offering better protection for your rights, it may not be suitable for all types of construction projects, especially those requiring specialised work.
