Retention monies. ▇▇▇▇▇ claim for what it termed retention monies in the sum of $98,311.20 being sums due under the contract for work already done but not billed but left on account with Blue Sand for the purpose of remedying any defects in construction. They claim this less a reduction for legitimate defects estimated at $25,000.00 [55] In law retention monies only become due and payable if the period agreed upon for remedying defects has expired and there are no defects. If defects are found and not remedied by the contractor then the owner is entitled to use the retention monies towards putting right these defects. See Emden’s op.cit p. 129 para. B.

Additionally Blue Sand alleged that the villa evidenced defects to the electrical, plumbing, mechanical and other systems. [58] Before I go further I note that ▇▇▇▇▇ through ▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇ in her oval evidence has accepted liability for defects and therefore no issue arises. [59] The law Before I consider the several areas of alleged defects it is helpful to look at a contractor’s obligation in law as this contract made no express reference to the duties imposed on the contractor and therefore we must imply the common law duties to give commercial effect/efficacy to the contract. [60] In law, the contractor has a dual obligation to carry out and complete the works in accordance with the contract. See ▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ Building and Engineering Contracts 11th ed. Vol. 1 para 4 – 003.
