Defects Liability Certificate Clause Samples
A Defects Liability Certificate is a formal document issued by the contract administrator at the end of the defects liability period, confirming that the contractor has rectified all identified defects in the completed works. Typically, after the main construction is finished, there is a set period during which the contractor is responsible for fixing any faults or deficiencies that arise; once these are addressed to the satisfaction of the client or supervising engineer, the certificate is issued. The core function of this clause is to mark the official end of the contractor’s liability for defects, providing both parties with clarity and closure regarding the quality and completion of the work.
