• What is the mission of the general contractor?

  General contractors play an essential role as as general contractors and prime contractors, such as defined in article 1792-1 of the Civil Code. But their contribution goes well beyond these responsibilities.

  In reality, a general contractor offers its clients a additional security by accompanying them throughout the process, from design to delivery, in a collaborative relationship. During a renovation project, its responsibilities include:

  • - The design of the project, including drawings and 3D views.
  • - The planning of the project, taking care to respect the time limit.
  • - The budgeting of the works, in order to guarantee a effective financial management.
  • - The selection of qualified craftsmen to carry out the different tasks.
  • - The contractualization of the services of craftsmen, in ensuring that the terms are clear and precise.
  • - The subscription of appropriate insurance to cover the work in progress.
  • - The continuous monitoring of the works, in order to guarantee their good unfolding.
  • - In-depth control during the reception of the project, to ensure compliance with expectations.
  • - Assistance after delivery, for any adjustment or improvement needed.

  With a general contractor, you benefit from a partner which assumes overall responsibility and manages transparent and efficient of your project.

• The particularities of the general contractor

  The general contractor, unlike a project manager, assumes contractual responsibility for the price, quality and time of the work. In the event of a claim, delay or budget overrun, he bears the cost. To guarantee this liability, the general contractor is generally covered by three types of essential insurance:

  • - The guarantee of perfect completion which covers any defects observed in the work up to one year after delivery.
  • - The two-year guarantee which ensures the repair of defective equipment for two years following delivery.
  • - The ten-year guarantee which obliges the project manager to intervene for a period of ten years in the event of damage affecting the solidity or the healthiness of the dwelling.
