A vendor who controls the contract also controls the bottom line. That's an accepted fact in nearly all industries. Buy a set of tires or a kitchen appliance or take your car to the dealer for service and you'll be handed a document to sign (a contract). Vendors know that contracts offer protection. What's true for a tire company or an appliance retailer is just as true for a construction contractor. You need the same protection. And the best way to get that protection is with an enforceable contract. Most experienced construction contractors (and every lawyer) will agree: Work under a contract that protects your interests.

Don't get caught with a defective contract. If a job goes bad, you need a contract that's as good as gold. If there's a defect anywhere in the agreement, an attorney for the other side is sure to find that flaw and hammer away relentlessly. Under Oregon law, the contractor, not the owner, is responsible for every defect in a home improvement contract. Sign a boilerplate agreement, such as an A.I.A. form, and you're a candidate for investigation by the CCB. Try to do business on a defective contract and you could end up with no way to collect. (Oregon Revised Statutes § 87.037).That's an expensive lesson in Oregon construction contract law.
