Nobody wants it to happen, especially in Bali where almost all people in this place is very good in conducting relationship. But it may be unavoidable. So, what to do when things like this happen? The first and foremost thing to disagree between the two parties is commonly about pricing. Some contractors may have given some description, or estimation related with the building project, including the pricing. But when things have been going smoothly over several days, the chosen contractor has decided to increase the price without prior notice. This may happen because clients are mostly neglecting the terms and agreements before the deal takes place. The contractor was only giving estimation instead of precise agreement and it can be changed. So, it should be taken into serious consideration that there should be legal agreements between two parties.

There will also be certain disagreement related to the work quality. It happens most of the time at any phase during certain building project. The worse thing is that it can happen when the project has been finished. It will relate a lot with the payment progress. When it happens, a property owner should make approach to the contractor that he may not be able in rectifying the case in civil method. A property owners should explain the precise issue and the offers from the contractor related to the project refurbishment without additional cost. But when a property owner fails to do this, he may have to find a help from an adjudicator. There will be a form to fulfill when it relates to adjudication in which it should comprise each disagreement details. Afterwards, a property owner can send it to contractor who has chance to reply in about two weeks. Both parties have chances to conclude with the help of the adjudicator for about a month.

Basically, chances are there for both a property owner and a contractor to deal to each other as long as there are good ways of communication among them. It will be very helpful to communicate in good manner to each other as both parties will take the great advantages related with their cooperation.


For avoiding further trouble, it is always recommended to choose very reliable contractors from well established companies in Bali who provide highly experienced contractors who can understand the needs of clients and can walk in the right path. Things will be different when a property owner choose any contractor he can find directly through some ads in newspaper without asking about his experiences and credibility. He might think that hiring less experienced contractor doesn’t cost too much money. But then he can end up losing a lot due to some disagreements that may occur.
