Santa Rosa Construction Defect Litigation Attorneys

$100+ Million Recovered For Homeowners

Construction defect law covers a wide variety of problems -- from peeling paint to a house needing to be re-done completely. It also covers code violations, unsafe structures, and poor workmanship. Construction defects can have long-lasting negative effects on your property’s structural stability and aesthetic condition, ultimately devaluing the property and endangering the health and safety of those involved.

What is a Construction Defect?

A construction defect is a deficiency in a building project. The defect or deficiency is caused by a failure to construct the building in a proper manner or if the building does not perform as intended by the buyer.

Below are common categories of construction defects:

• Design defects
• Material defects
• Construction defects
• Subsurface defects

A construction defect can reduce the value of your home and create unnecessary stress in your life. Some defects may be seen immediately while others take years to become apparent after it has caused noticeable damage. Depending on your situation, you might have a case and the party that is responsible should be held accountable. A lawsuit will allow you to seek damages such as costs for repairing the defect or even the loss in value of your property.
