Master Builders Association (MBA) Contracts at a Glance
Master Builders Association (MBA) contracts are standardised construction agreements specifically tailored for the construction industry, serving Blacktown and its surrounding suburbs. These contracts aim to ensure fairness, clarity, and legal compliance, outlining the rights, obligations, and responsibilities of all parties involved. They provide a structured framework for the smooth execution of construction projects.
It’s crucial to distinguish MBA contracts from those offered by other industry organisations like the Housing Industry Association (HIA). While both serve similar purposes, MBA contracts are more comprehensive, catering to a broader range of construction projects. They are developed by the Master Builders Association and are widely recognised within the industry, adhering to applicable building laws and regulations.
