Construction defect cases in California are usually brought as a result of the negligence or incompetence of a builder or other workmen employed in the construction industry. 

A home with a construction defect can suffer from problems in the foundation, water intrusion and/or resultant toxic mold, paint, stucco or any number of other construction problems.

A person’s home is normally one’s largest investment.  If the home you have mortgaged is suffering from construction problems that you know about and must disclose when you sell the house, the loss suffered can be enormous.

From the standpoint of the licensed and conscientious builder or individual craftsman, there is nothing worse than being dragged into a construction defect case as a defendant due to the negligence or profit-driven actions of another defendant. 

Sadly, however, as the real estate market suffers, developers trying to save a dollar, may find it more and more enticing to take shortcuts, hire unlicensed subcontractors, use cheaper and less experienced workmen and focus on the exterior appearance while skimping on the structural aspects of a development.

When such lapses in judgment result in injuries as well as damage to the home, the plaintiff may have not only a construction defect case for the damage caused to the home, but also a personal injury case for their bodily injuries such as when a house fire cause by improper wiring results in injury or death.

If other home buyers in your same development have similar structural problems, you and your neighbors may have a class action case or at least a case in which you can join as co-plaintiffs and share the costs of litigation.

If the construction defects are in the form of environmental pollution in your home such as that caused by toxic chemicals or materials in the construction of your home or due to toxic mold caused by water intrusion, air pollution, or soil pollution, you and possibly your neighbors as well may have a toxic tort case.

If you think your home was improperly built, has a construction defect or believe that you may be suffering injuries from the environment in or around your home, call the Law Offices of R. Sebastian Gibson today.  We will be pleased to discuss your case with you over the phone and learn more about your specific situation.
