DEFECTIVE MATERIALS AND WORKMANSHIP Clause Examples

The 'Defective Materials and Workmanship' clause establishes the responsibility of a contractor or supplier to ensure that all materials used and work performed meet specified quality standards. In practice, this clause typically requires the contractor to repair, replace, or correct any materials or workmanship found to be defective within a certain period after completion, often at their own expense. Its core function is to protect the client or owner from substandard construction or products, ensuring that any deficiencies are promptly addressed and that the final deliverable meets the agreed-upon standards.
