Common Construction Defect Lawsuits
We handle Colorado construction defect law cases that involve anything that can go wrong with the building of a house, including:
Expansive Soils. Much of the soil in the Denver metro area contains clay that can expand when it gets wet. If a builder does not allow for this expansion, the clay will lift and damage the home. One solution to this problem is to install perimeter drain systems and structural floor systems that leave a crawlspace under the house as a protection from the movement of the soils. Unfortunately, an improperly built drainage or flooring system can lead to additional problems, including mold.
Real or Synthetic Stucco (EIFS) Systems. Stucco, or EIFS, if not properly installed or sealed, can allow water to be trapped in the walls of a home, which can rot away at the home's integrity.
Building Envelope Defects. Problems with the exterior construction of the home can lead to significant damages. These problems can include leaking roofs, leaking windows and doors, siding and exterior surface failures, and improperly installed vapor barriers or flashing.
Mold and Water Damage. This is one of the biggest problems in defective homes. If a home is not properly sealed on the outside or does not have an appropriate drainage system, moisture can get in and cause mold to grow and can even lead to structural damage. Defective roofing and window sashes can also allow moisture and mold inside a home.
