The manufacturer is the company or industry that manufactures construction materials for a construction site. It exists a wide range of construction goods such as :
- Wood
- Glass
- Steel
- Plastic materials (mainly for insulation and sealing)
- Materials from the transformation of quarry products such as clay, stone, limestone, gypsum, sand and other raw materials. These construction materials are used in the manufacture of bricks, tiles, floor tiles and sanitary elements.
Under the Civil Code of Quebec, the manufacturer has a well-defined role and many responsibilities towards its customers. Our lawyers for manufacturers of building materials are happy to inform you about your legal rights and obligations.
- Respond to calls for tenders from general and specialized contractors.
- Sell goods free of design defects to the supplier of materials and to the private and public client.
- Write a clear and precise sales contract that informs the various parties concerned on the legal guarantees, bonds, reasonable delivery times and payment agreement.
- The manufacturer of building materials is obliged to offer the following legal guarantees: the guarantee of use where the material is used for the use for which it is intended, the guarantee of reasonable duration where the material has a reasonable lifespan for a normal use and finally, a warranty against hidden defects.
- The trader must also give the buyer the necessary indications for the user to avoid a risk or danger for an ongoing project.
- Repair, reimburse or replace any defective material when he receives a notice of denunciation from his client before or after the end of the work.
Here are some of the benefits of working with a construction lawyer.
