The term "construction defect" is very broad, but it generally defines a defect in the design, materials, workmanship that can affect mechanical systems, building components, and structural integrity.
Putting a successful bid proposal together is more than just jotting down numbers and gambling for a good outcome. Proper bid preparation requires time and effort, and it is particularly important to obtain a proper understanding the plans and specifications. It is also helpful to conduct site visits, estimate costs for labor, materials, and equipment, as well as ensure everything is covered.
