Art. 368 Rights of the customer in the event of defects
1 Where the work is so defective or deviates from the contractual terms to such an extent that the customer has no use for it or cannot reasonably be expected to accept it, the customer may refuse acceptance and, if the contractor is at fault, seek damages.
2 In the case of minor defects in the work or only slight deviations from the contractual terms, the customer may reduce the price in proportion to the decrease in its value or require the contractor to rectify the work at his own expense and to pay damages if he was at fault, provided such rectification is possible without excessive cost to the contractor.
3 In the case of works produced on the customer’s land or property which by their nature cannot be removed without disproportionate detriment, the customer has only the rights stipulated in paragraph 2.
