Construction defects can be difficult to identify, especially if you are not a professional. What exactly is a construction defect? A construction defect is a deficiency in the design or construction of a building or structure. The cause of the condition can be the result of one of three things: faulty design, materials, and/or workmanship. If the construction defect is an actionable defect, this means it is a deficiency where the contractor/subcontractor/supplier could be held liable.
Construction defects are a common dispute in the construction industry. If you find one in your home or property, act fast. Get it looked at! You may be entitled to money or getting the work redone without you having to pay a cent.
Here are some actionable defects:
- Cracks in the foundation
- Unlevel structures or foundations
- Structures that do not meet standards to be up against wind and earthquakes
- Faulty drainage
- Leaking plumbing or sewer systems
- Windows, doors and roofs that leak
- Cracked walls
- Substandard electrical system
This is just a sample of some construction defects that are actionable. For more examples, contact a California construction defect attorney or visit our visit our San Diego construction defect contact page.
