HIA building contract reviews are detailed expert assessments of Housing Industry Association (HIA) contracts before you sign. Our specialists examine every clause in your HIA building contract — including HIA Lump Sum, HIA Cost Plus, HIA Small Works and HIA Renovations & Additions agreements — to identify hidden costs, unfair terms, variation traps and protections that may be missing. Our HIA building contract reviews are NSW-focused and cover residential builds, renovations and major construction projects.
HIA building contracts can run 60+ pages with complex clauses around variations, prime cost items, provisional sums, delay damages and cost escalations. An HIA building contract review uncovers risks that often cost owners tens of thousands of dollars later. Our HIA building contract reviews flag unfair clauses, examine how your deposit and progress payment schedule is structured, and assess whether the contract protects you, not just the builder.
Our contract review includes a comprehensive analysis of all terms and conditions, identification of hidden costs, risk assessment, clause-by-clause breakdown, and a detailed written report with recommendations. We check for unfair terms, ambiguous language, missing protections, and cost escalation risks.
Your written report is issued within 24 hours of receiving your documents. For urgent matters, contact us and we'll do our best to accommodate. You'll receive your comprehensive report via email.
