GENERAL PERFORMANCE
All Work of the Subcontractor will be performed in a good and workmanlike manner in accordance with the
plans and specifications for each job and must comply with all Federal and State laws, codes and

Contractor and that neither the Subcontractor, nor his employees shall be deemed to be employees of the
Builder.
3.
TIME
The Subcontractor agrees to promptly begin work as soon as notified by the Builder, and to complete the
work in a professional and workmanlike manner within a reasonable period of time once work is
commenced and in any event by the deadlines established by the Builder in writing. Subcontractor shall
cooperate with other trades who are also on the jobsite so that each reasonably may complete their
respective work within the required time frames and Subcontractor shall in any event complete
Subcontractor’s work within a time that will allow any other trade whose work depends on the completion
of Subcontractor’s work to also timely complete its work. At all times, Subcontractor shall provide
competent supervision, a sufficient number of skilled workers and adequate and proper materials to
maintain Builder’s work schedule. Subcontractor warrants to Builder that he has all proper and necessary
licenses and permits to perform the services contracted for by Builder. If Builder determines that
Subcontractor’s work does not conform to the provisions of the Drawings and Specifications, or that the
work is not of appropriate quality, Builder shall advise Subcontractor, and if Subcontractor does not correct
such defects or errors on Builder’s time table, builder shall have the right to correct the defects and to
charge back the Subcontractor the cost of such corrections.

work or change order is first agreed upon and signed as required.
