ABOUT CONSTRUCTION DEFECTS

Construction defect claims can take many different forms. From structural damage to foundations and floor slabs due to heaving soils, mold and water damage caused by improper drainage and leaks, to concrete and asphalt damage as a result of faulty installation. There are typically two types of construction defects:

Patent defects: those that are readily apparent or visible to the naked eye.

Latent defects: those that are not obvious or simply are not visible.

In most states, homeowners have a limited time in which to file a claim for construction defects. Once the statute of limitations has expired, homeowners may be stuck with the defect. But some states may allow suits as long as they are filed within the time limit after the date of discovery. For example, you may not know the builder used a defective building material until you renovate your home and discover the defect.

EXAMPLES OF CONTSTRUCTION DEFECTS

There is no limit to the kinds of defects that may be present in a home, from minor problems that can easily be fixed to major situations that render a home uninhabitable. Defects can originate in the design, planning, inspection, or the construction phase. Common construction defects include, but are not limited to:

Cracks in the concrete foundation
Expansive soil, resulting in settling and cracked foundations
Failure to properly insulate
Poorly installed electrical wires
Roof damage/failure, leading to leaks or inadequate structural support
Toxic mold
Use of defective building materials
Water intrusion and trapped moisture

TAKE ACTION

Construction defect law is complicated and it can get increasingly technical. Some litigation can take a long time and there are many examples of cases resulting in huge settlements.

For example, in 2011, a Texas couple won a settlement of $58 million dollars for a long drawn out battle with home builders, Perry Homes. A jury in California also awarded $2.7 million dollars to a family in a toxic mold case in 2001.
