Construction Defect Dispute Form

Construction defects can lead to costly repairs, safety hazards, and prolonged legal disputes. Whether you're a property owner dealing with faulty workmanship, a contractor facing unjust claims, or a project manager navigating complex building code violations, having a clear, documented dispute resolution process is essential.

This Construction Defect Dispute Form provides a professional framework for reporting construction defects, documenting building code violations, and initiating contractor bond claims. Built specifically for property owners, general contractors, project managers, and legal professionals in the construction industry, this template streamlines the dispute resolution process by capturing all essential information in one organized submission.

The form collects detailed information about the property, the nature of defects, relevant building codes, inspection findings, and financial impacts. Parties can upload inspection reports, expert opinions, photographic evidence, and supporting documentation directly within the form, creating a comprehensive record for mediation or legal proceedings.
