I was hired by a Colorado GC to install as specified in the plans provided by the architect (this included which specific products to install). There is an issue with the manufacture of the products themselves, but they were installed properly. I am being told that I have punch list items to complete because the products are not working correctly. The products are defective, but install was correct. The GC should have already received 3 draws on this project, but is saying they have not received any payment. There is a pay when paid clause in the contract. The project is in CO.
Due to the corona virus, the site (it is a visual arts center owned by a university) is shut down so I couldn't do the punch list even if I wanted to.

Which project type in Levelset we should select for Affordable housing projects- can affordable housing projects be under "state/county" type?

I am a subcontractor who has worked on a non-public construction project in Iowa. My last day on site was 17 February 2022. I haven't received payment from the general contractor and I would like to make a claim under the Payment Bond (form A312). My questions are:
- Is there a maximum period of 30 days to make such claim?
- If there is, do the 30 days start counting from completion of the project as whole or from completion of the works which the subcontractor has performed?
- Is the action therefore time-barred or am I still entitled to make the claim?
- If I am entitled to make a claim, is there a specific form I should use?
Thank you!...Read More
