We have answers to the most popular questions from our customers. If you can't find an answer to your question, please contact us.

How do I make my own contract agreement?

Contracts arent that complicated. All you need is offer, acceptance, consideration, intent, legality and capacity. If all those requirements are meant, everything else in it just has its plain English meaning so just write out the terms you want such as price and the specific services you provide.

What should be included in a contractor agreement?

A contract should contain everything agreed upon by you and your licensed contractor. It should detail the work, price, when payments will be made, who gets the necessary building permits, and when the job will be finished. The contract also must identify the contractor, and give their address and license number.

What is an owner-contractor agreement?

This contract provides general conditions and rights, responsibilities, and relationships of the owner, contractor, construction manager, and architect when the construction manager is an advisor on a sustainable project.

What is the master agreement between owner and contractor?

The Master Agreement is a contract form between Owner and Contractor that is applicable for a defined period of time and is intended to establish contractual terms and conditions (excluding scope, time and cost) for multiple projects during that time period.

What is the difference between a contractor and an owner?

In simple terms, the general contractor is hired directly by the owner, while subcontractors are directly contracted with the general contractor. General contractors typically oversee the entire project and source subcontractors to complete small portions of the work.
