Fixed-fee legal advice to uncover hidden risks and prevent cost blowouts - before you’re locked in

Most domestic building contracts favour the builder


Building a home is exciting. Yet most building contracts are written to protect the builder, rather than the homeowner. When things go wrong, homeowners are often left dealing with delays, cost variations, unexpected charges and disputes that feel impossible to challenge.


We commonly see contracts that include:

  • Clauses allowing the builder to pass on cost increases during construction
  • Heavy reliance on provisional sums and prime cost items, which can blow out the contract price
  • Little or no consequences to the builder for delays
  • Poorly defined scopes of work that leads to disputes over variations 


For a fixed fee, Build Right Construction Lawyers will show you exactly where you stand, highlight any potential risks and help you understand your rights. It’s a simple step now that can save you significant money and stress down the line. 


We provide clarity, confidence and peace of mind, knowing your interests are properly protected.  


Don’t risk unwanted surprises, have your contract reviewed with us today and build with confidence.

Builder Accountability

A well-reviewed contract clearly defines your builder’s responsibilities, timelines and standards. This ensures your builder is held accountable, establishing a stronger contractual understanding from the outset and preventing disputes once building has commenced.
