... where the plaintiff claims to be put into "the same situation ... as if the contract had been performed," there are two quite distinct bases of assessment: difference in value and cost of cure ... In the case of a contract to build ... the prima facie rule is that the builder is, on breach, liable on a "cost of cure" basis: i.e. he must pay for the cost of putting the defects right or of completing the work.
