Frequently Asked Questions
- What does a contract Superintendent do?
A Superintendent administers the construction contract, acting independently to certify payments, assess variations, grant extensions of time, and determine practical completion, ensuring both the principal and contractor fulfill their obligations.
- Can you assist if our builder has gone into liquidation?
Yes, we can conduct an urgent site audit to document the exact status of the build, secure the site's commercial position, and estimate the cost to complete the project with a replacement contractor.
- Do you act as expert witnesses in construction disputes?
Yes, our senior quantity surveyors regularly provide expert evidence regarding construction costs, defect rectifications, and valuation of variations in legal proceedings.
- How do you assess a delay claim?
We analyse the construction program, site diaries, and weather data to determine if the delay was a qualifying cause under the contract, and then calculate the associated preliminary costs.
