BDW Trading Ltd v Ardmore Construction Limited - [2024] EWHC 3235 (TCC), Technology and Construction Court 16 December 2024

The ruling in BDW Trading Limited v Ardmore Construction Limited (2024) has confirmed the wide scope of adjudication clauses and opened the doors for adjudications to be brought regarding historical defects under the Defective Premises Act 1972. Due to the extension of limitation for Defective Premises Act claims under the Building Safety Act 2022, contractors can now potentially face adjudication referrals on historic claims from projects as far back as 1992.
