UK construction law
UK construction law governs relationships, responsibilities, and contractual obligations between parties involved in building projects, such as clients, contractors, and suppliers. It covers areas like contract formation, health and safety, quality standards, and dispute resolution. Key regulations include the Construction Act, which formalizes payment processes and dispute mechanisms, and health and safety laws protecting workers and the public. The law aims to ensure projects are completed efficiently, safely, and with clear understanding among stakeholders, minimizing risks and legal conflicts throughout the construction process.
