Understanding delay damages
When building works are delayed due to the client’s actions or inaction, builders can claim “delay damages” under several HIA contracts in Queensland. These can be claimed before or after the commencement of the project.
In this handy resource, you’ll learn which contracts include this clause, when a claim is appropriate and what you can claim. Common examples of claimable costs include increased material costs, trades and labour costs and machinery and equipment hire.
It’s an essential guide to ensuring you cover your costs when your residential building project is delayed due to no fault of your own.
