There are two most commonly used construction contracts when constructing houses namely;

1. FULL BUILDING CONTRACT
2. LABOR CHARGE CONTRACT

Other types of contract exist but these are the ones most commonly employed.

CONSTRUCTING A HOUSE USING A FULL BUILDING CONTRACT

The traditional full building contract is the preferred one for many regular projects that are being handled through a well defined and hierarchical project team.

The full building contract entails giving a contractor possession of the site where the construction is to be undertaken, following which they are responsible fully for delivering the project. In this kind of contract, the contractor is liable for sourcing materials, transporting them to site and storing them appropriately, securing the site, hiring and paying required labor and of course, delivering the project.

The full building contract is governed using contract documents that stipulate all aspects of contract law that affect this kind of building project. These contract documents include drawings, schedules and full conditions of engagement. Currently the contract document that is in use in Kenya is published by the Joint Building Council, which is a board consisting of major stakeholders in the construction industry.

CONSTRUCTING A HOUSE USING THE LABOR CHARGE CONTRACT

The labor charge contract is a different kind of contract, which entails the developer entering an agreement with a building contractor whereby he shall be liable for the procurement and delivery of construction materials to site, in addition to ensuring the security of those items. The contractor is liable to provide skilled and unskilled labor on site to do the construction. They agree on a daily wage that the contractor is paid, based on specific tasks to be achieved by the contractor on that day.

When building a house in Kenya, the developer often hires someone who shall represent him on site, called the CLERK OF WORKS. This individual works for the client and is his eyes and ears on ground. While he is employed by the client to represent him on site, he is not allowed to give any instructions except under the direction of the architect. The clerk of works therefore enforces the site instructions provided by the architect.

WHEN TO USE WHICH CONTRACT TO BUILD A HOUSE.

1. FULL BUILDING CONTRACT

As building projects get larger, construction logistics increase in size and complexity. There are many issues regarding construction that must be resolved, including sourcing and procurement of materials, transportation to and from sites, goods and material storage, specialized plants and other equipment, management of huge work teams, quality control, etc.
For larger projects, these are often too difficult for an individual without the relevant construction infrastructure or experience to deal with. The best mode of constructing such a house is using the full building contract. It is the contractor’s headache to source for construction materials and bring them to site and construct the building according to the standards provided in the building contract documents. The role of consultants becomes to supervise construction quality and time, and enforcing the building contract between the contractor and the developer.

2. LABOR CHARGE CONTRACT

One can use the labor contract when building a house if as a developer you have sufficient time to control the construction site, secondly if your budget is too constrained to allow for large contractor profits and finally if the construction is not very complex.

The labor contract entails agreeing with a contractor on a daily wage rate (called daywork rate) in which a contractor is paid for work done per day. This mode may have its weakness in the case of builders being unnecessarily slow in doing certain tasks such that more time is required and paid for.

My son Jordan wants to join the real estate business. He admires what I do and wants to participate in building the company - Myspace Properties. I have given some responsibility to monitor the happenings at the almost complete Mytown Mall Karen.

From a young age, I would take him along on my site visits, industry events and meetings with investors. He gets a first-hand view of how business is conducted. He interacts with construction workers on-site and learns the process as well as the leadership aspect. By the time he is done with college, he will have considerable expertise in the sector. I intend to expose Kinoti in the same way to the legal career he aspires to.

The name I have should open doors for my children. That is the greatest inheritance that I can give them. I take pride in introducing my kids to the movers and shakers I come across. Even though they are still young, I am teaching them how to sit at the table with kings. They have met ambassadors, big industry pioneers and some of our national leaders. I believe that introducing them to such people motivates them to aim higher. It might also open doors for them sometime in the future.

As parents, I challenge us to raise responsible and intelligent children who will be valuable to the society and the world at large.

Leadership is lonely. Ambition is lonely. Building is lonely.

Even if you have a great company or great spouse, a lot of the journey is internal & you're on your own.

It's really hard to bear, and people will drop out over time.

You have to want it in your core.

[Sidonia P Alphonse @MinisterSidonia]

I was meditating upon the Life of Joseph in the Bible and the Holy Spirit taught me something.

You don't honour people because they're honourable, you honour them because the Lord is honourable.

You don't love people because they're lovable, you love them because God is love.

Bed time prayer for tonight:

Dear Heavenly Father,

I come before You today with a humble and grateful heart, knowing that You are the source of all wisdom, love, and strength.

Thank You for the precious gift of Your Word, which guides and comforts us in our journey of faith.

Lord, I am writing this prayer to You, feeling the depth of Your presence and knowing that You are near.

As I reflect on the powerful words of 1 John 5:13-21, I am reminded of the assurance we have in Jesus Christ.

Your Word declares that we can know beyond a shadow of a doubt that we have eternal life through our faith in Him. This truth brings me great comfort and fills my heart with joy.

I lay before You my fears, doubts, and insecurities.

Help me to trust in Your promises and to find peace in Your love.

Strengthen my faith, Lord, so that I may walk confidently in the path You have set before me.

When challenges and temptations come my way, let me cling to Your truth and resist the snares of the enemy.

I ask for Your guidance and discernment, that I may discern between truth and deception.

Open my eyes to the schemes of the evil one, and grant me the wisdom to avoid falling into his traps.

Help me to be watchful and alert, guarding my heart and mind in Christ Jesus.

Lord, I confess my dependence on You and acknowledge that apart from You, I can do nothing.

Help me to love others genuinely, showing them Your grace and mercy.

Teach me to forgive as You have forgiven me, and to extend kindness and compassion to those in need.

I surrender myself to Your will and seek Your protection from the evil one.

Guard my heart against the influences of the world, and empower me to stand firm in my faith.

Grant me the strength to resist temptation and to live a life worthy of the calling You have placed upon me.

Thank You, Lord, for the privilege of coming before You in prayer. I trust that You hear my words and that You will answer according to Your perfect will.

May Your peace and presence fill my life, guiding me each step of the way.

I pray all these things in the precious name of Jesus,

Amen.
