A Pennsylvania subcontractor agreement is drafted by a general contractor to transfer a portion of their contractual obligations to another individual, the “subcontractor.” Under this arrangement, the subcontractor will complete a specific task that contributes to a larger project, while the contractor oversees the work and ensures that it gets done according to their client’s specifications.

The agreement spells out how the subcontractor will be paid, what services they’ll be performing, how long the contract will last, and whether they’ll be responsible for labor, materials, and other expenses. Once agreed upon and signed, the contract will be valid until the services are complete or the parties decide to terminate.
