Neither the final certificate nor payment nor any provision in the contract documents shall relieve the contractor of responsibility for faulty materials or workmanship, and he shall remedy any defects due thereto and pay for any damage to other work resulting therefrom.

The owner shall give notice of observed defects with reasonable promptness. The contractor shall promptly correct, remedy, or remove from the premises all work condemned by the Owner as failing to conform to the contract or as being faulty in materials or workmanship, and the contractor shall promptly replace and re-execute the work in accordance with the contract and without expense to the owner. If the contractor does not remove, correct, or remedy faulty work, including any work called for by the contract documents but omitted, within a reasonable time, fixed by a written notice of the owner, the owner may remove the work, correct the work, or remedy the work, at the expense of the contractor. Correction of defective work executed under the plans and the specifications, whether covered by warranty of a subcontractor or materialman or by separate bond of any subcontractor or materialmen, remains the primary direct responsibility of the contractor.

The foregoing obligations of the contractor shall remain in effect until the same shall have been extinguished by operation of the statute of limitations for the jurisdiction in which the work is executed. As additional security for the fulfillment of such obligations, but in no way limiting same, the contractor shall furnish to the owner as a collateral instrument for use in connection with the contract bond a written warranty and guarantee of the contractor that all work executed under the plans and specifications will be free from defects of materials and workmanship for a period of one year from the date of final acceptance. In the case of work performed by subcontractors and also whenever specific guaranties, warranties, or bonds are called for in the trade sections of the specifications, the contractor shall furnish guaranties, warranties or bonds for such period of time as may be stipulated, on which he himself is obligor, and he shall obtain and furnish from the subcontractors or materialmen warranties, guaranties, or bonds for such period of time as may be stipulated, which shall be in such form as to permit direct enforcement by the owner against the subcontractor or materialmen: provided, however, that in the latter instance the general contractor shall also be named as joint principal with such subcontractor or materialman in any such bond, warranty, or guaranty, and the instrument shall state that liability is joint and several. The calling for and the furnishing of specific written warranties, guaranties, or bonds shall in no way limit the obligations of the contractor set forth hereinbefore.
