Construction Contract Templates

Contracts for construction projects and contractors

PDF Guru provides construction contract templates for general contractors, subcontractors, project owners, and construction companies. Our templates cover general construction contracts, subcontractor agreements, home renovation contracts, remodeling contracts, and construction service agreements. Each template is structured with essential sections — detailed scope of work, project timeline with milestones, contract price and payment schedule, change order procedures, materials and labor specifications, licenses and permits requirements, insurance obligations, warranties, and dispute resolution through mediation or arbitration.

Open any construction contract template in the PDF Guru editor to customize it: edit all text and clauses, insert company details and logos, adjust the layout, change fonts and colors, and use the built-in eSignature feature. Download the finished construction contract as a PDF.

Frequently asked questions

  • What are the 5 elements of a construction contract?

    The five key elements are: scope of work (detailed description of what will be built), contract price and payment terms, project timeline with milestones for tracking progress, materials and labor specifications, and terms for changes, dispute resolution, and completion of the work.

  • What are the 5 types of construction contracts?

    Common types include: lump sum (fixed-price), cost-plus, time-and-materials, unit price, and guaranteed maximum price contracts. PDF Guru's templates can be adapted to any pricing structure — edit the payment section to reflect the agreed contract type.

  • What should a construction contract include about subcontractors?

    A construction contract should define whether the general contractor can hire subcontractors, how subcontractor work will be managed and paid for, insurance and licensing requirements for each subcontractor, and who bears liability for the subcontractor's portion of materials and labor.

  • What about licenses, permits, and insurance?

    A solid construction contract specifies which party is responsible for obtaining the necessary licenses and permits, what types of insurance are required (liability, workers' compensation), and how proof of insurance and permits should be documented. Our templates include sections for these requirements.
