Hello, in the fine print it very likely says that the bad weather period is not included in the construction time. Therefore, the 26th of November is more likely to be expected. And usually, the sums are such that the construction company can afford 1-2 months, and you might then be credited with 1000€ for the delay. That way you would still be fully on schedule. Currently, however, it is really difficult to get the companies started. Better to wait a little and get the known subcontractor than have your site manager just take the Yellow Pages out of desperation and pick the first one willing to do it for the money.
