Hello everyone!

We were at the building materials store specified by our construction company for sampling our bricks and roof tiles.

According to the construction service description, we have a budget of €650 per 1000 pcs, including VAT.

However, in our offer (which we signed as a contract), bricks were named that are significantly more expensive. According to the customer advisor at the building materials store, almost twice as much.

So what is binding now?

I have attached the excerpt from the construction service description and from the offer.

I was unable to reach anyone there today and would like to inform myself a bit over the weekend before entering the conversation with the construction company uninformed.

The clinker and the note "or equivalent" are stated there. This allows the builder to offer a different clinker that is equivalent. To what extent equivalent means technically, in terms of color, or financially is not specified. Calmly talking with each other helps. Be clear about what your goal is.

Normally, the offer takes precedence over the construction service description where the two contradict each other. However, that should also be stated somewhere in the contract.

Today the written response came by email.

Our house is calculated with the Röben Brighton coal clinker bricks.

That really opens up new possibilities in the selection! Nice! :-)
