A construction defect and the claim process can be long and draining. It can truly help your case against a builder/contractor if you have expert witnesses to prove your claim.
For example, if your construction claim was an unstable foundation and water leaking, you could hire a window expert, framer, water proofer, a structural engineer, plumbers, electricians, or a geotechnical engineer. These experts can speak to foundational claims, wall cracks, unlevel floors, soil issues, leaks, etc.
These experts need to prove the cause of the defect, the quality of the work, any violations to California building codes, the standard of care, the extent of damage, and what a reasonable cost of repair would be. However, be aware that the builder can also hire expert testimony to defend themselves.
Construction cases can be tough to prove who is a fault and why. You don’t want to go into these claims alone, especially if you have no expertise in construction defects or the law.
If you notice a construction defect in your property, try to talk to the contractor about getting it fixed. If the contractor will not do the job/won’t do it for free, it is in your best interest to hire a skilled and experienced California construction defect attorney to fight for you.
