Retention Recovery
We understand the ongoing struggle contractors face in recovering retention, a pervasive challenge within the UK construction industry. With a proven track record and a commitment to your financial success, we specialise in navigating the complexities of retention recovery.
What is Retention in Construction?
Retention is a common practice in the construction industry where a portion of the contract value is withheld by the client or main contractor until certain conditions are met. This is usually to ensure the completion of the project and address any defects that may arise post-project. However, many businesses face challenges when it comes to recovering these funds.
The Retention Plague in Construction
Retaining funds has become an unfortunate norm for contractors in the UK. Main contractors often choose to either ignore efforts to recover retention or find reasons to delay payment. The typical scenario involves receiving partial payments on practical completion, with the remaining balance scheduled for payment 6 - 12 months later. The grim reality is that contractors frequently find themselves tirelessly chasing after these funds.
