A Virginia subcontractor agreement outlines the working relationship between contractors and subcontractors within the state. It details the subcontractor’s work when the contractor will pay the subcontractor and how much, and relevant information like insurance and materials requirements. Once signed and dated, the agreement becomes a legally binding contract in the event of a dispute.
