What is a cost-plus contract?

A cost-plus contract is a type of construction contract where the contractor is paid for all construction-related expenses plus an additional payment for profit. This type of contract is often used when the scope of work is not well-defined.

What are the benefits of a cost-plus contract?

The benefits of a cost-plus contract include flexibility in project scope, transparency in costs and the potential for higher quality work as the contractor is not incentivised to cut corners to stay within a fixed budget.

What types of projects are best suited for cost-plus contracts?

Cost-plus contracts are best suited for projects where the scope of work is not well-defined or is likely to change, such as custom home builds, renovations, and complex construction projects.

How Can I Save Money on a Cost-Plus Contract?

You can reduce overall costs by purchasing certain items yourself—such as kitchens, bathroom fittings, flooring and tiles. This gives you greater control over your budget and product selection, while still benefiting from a qualified builder who will professionally install everything to the highest standard.

Do I need to have my finances ready before we start?

Yes, it’s important to have your finances in place before signing the contract. This ensures a smooth process and avoids delays once the project is underway.

How does billing work?

Upon signing the contract, you'll be invoiced a 5% upfront deposit. After that, you'll receive fortnightly invoices for any work completed, along with the agreed builder’s margin.

When is payment due?

Payments are typically due within 7 days of receiving each invoice. Keeping payments on schedule helps keep your project on track.
