Construction Defects in Condominiums
Leaky condominiums are expensive and can affect the home's future value. Where a potential buyer discovers the problem, the offer will likely be significantly reduced or withdrawn. At Lesperance Mendes, we represent condo owners who discover significant leaks caused by builders' faulty or negligent work and we help the owners recover damages.
Leaky Condo Claims
Sometimes, innovations in building techniques can have negative results. Improvements in the sealing of building walls may not provide the protection that condo owners expect. Air may have been released while moisture was locked in. As time went on, the wood frame construction may have rotted, requiring costly repairs and a significant reduction in home values.
At Lesperance Mendes, construction dispute lawyer John Mendes oversees our construction defect practice group that deals with such matters as:
- Proving fault in the event of home damage
- A builder's adherence to building codes
- Proper municipal inspection of the work
While many leaky condo claims for damages are resolved in arbitration, we are experienced in litigating these types of cases in the courtroom.
