Common use of Rejected Work Clause in Contracts

Rejected Work. If, after inspection any Work is rejected by the Engineer as defective or improperly done, such defective or improper Work shall be taken down and rebuilt or the defects otherwise remedied as the Engineer may direct. If the Contractor refuses or neglects to remove such rejected Work, or otherwise correct the defects, as the Engineer directs, the Commissioner may obtain, use and employ materials, men and equipment to do the same, and the expense thereof will be solely borne by the Contractor and may be deducted from any money which may then be due or thereafter become due to the Contractor for Work performed under this Contract.
