  2. 1. What Is a Contract Review in Construction? A contract review is a professional assessment of your construction agreement to ensure all terms are clear, fair, and aligned with your project goals. It involves identifying vague language, risk-heavy clauses, hidden costs, and compliance issues — before they cost you money. 2. Hidden Costs That Often Go Unnoticed Here are common traps in construction contracts that can lead to thousands in unexpected expenses: Unclear payment milestones – You may pay more upfront than necessary. Vague variation clauses – Contractors can charge extra for changes not clearly defined. Penalty clauses – Missing deadlines can trigger heavy fees. No cap on material cost escalation – You bear the full brunt of rising costs. Dispute resolution clauses favoring one party – Legal battles become lengthy and expensive. 01 GUARDIAN PC
