BUILDING CONTRACT |
50 MB |
Next comes the building contract, to which plans and
specifications must be attached. This is the
document that outlines a builder's legal obligations
(and yours). At the very minimum it should cover the
scope of the works, the contract sum, how variations
are to be handled, completion time, payment terms
and the 'defects liability period', during which the
builder must correct any faults.

INSURANCE DOCUMENTS |
50 MB |
But paperwork doesn't end there. You should check
that your builder has all the appropriate
insurances: home warranty insurance, to cover you if
the builder dies, goes broke or disappears; public
liability and professional indemnity insurance;
worker's compensation insurance; and contract works
insurance, to cover loss or damage to materials or
work.

OCCUPATION CERTIFICATE |
50 MB |
When the job's finished, there's one last piece of
paper: an occupation certificate. This is provided
by the local council and is evidence that the
building complies with all council approvals and
standards. When the time comes to sell, it proves to
buyers and solicitors that the house has not been
built without approval.
