The Home Construction Contract serves as a fundamental legal instrument in Malaysian residential construction projects, essential for both property owners and contractors. It is specifically designed to comply with Malaysian construction laws, particularly the Housing Development (Control and Licensing) Act 1966 and the Street, Drainage and Building Act 1974. This document should be used when engaging a contractor for new home construction, major renovations, or significant home additions. It comprehensively covers construction specifications, payment schedules, quality standards, completion timelines, and regulatory compliance requirements. The contract includes provisions for protecting both parties' interests, ensuring clear communication of expectations, and establishing proper mechanisms for project management and dispute resolution within the Malaysian legal framework.
