Many issues can stem from a construction defect, such as a flood, fire, structural failure or hazardous material spill. Delaying repair may impede the critical path of work, result in delays to other contractors and cause the contractor to default on its contract. The contractor may not be able to immediately determine who is at fault for the defect. The subcontractor responsible may already be offsite, or simply can’t be trusted to fix the problem.
