New construction massive water damage
Comments (18)I don't understand the whole process, but if you had to pay $100k in legal fees and had a return of $64k, doesn't that leave you in the whole even worse? We bought our 25 year old home last April. (Zero Lot Line) Our neighbors said that the former owner wanted to replace the roof the year before, even though they didn't want to. Turns out that the former owner really took the cheapest 'contractor' he could find. Crooked rows of shingles that disappear under another row, no mastic on the chimney top, poor flashing, nails right through the exposed portion of a shingle, only four (instead of the required six) nails per shingle, ripples in the shingles that could be caused by old nails still in the roof. I filed a complain with the BBB after getting the info from my neighbor. The company has gone out of business, which is of no surprise. There were other complaints against them, too. In my case you get (or inherit) what you or someone else paid for. In your case it sounds like the builder danced around the problems until the company was gone. I really hope your damages were partly covered. If that happened to my home I'd be sunk....See MoreWater Damaged Cabinet Doors

Comments (10)Rather than concentrating on the counter and the small area in kitchen, consider what suits your entire area and decor. I guess you can’t provide pictures of the rooms to get suggestions in this regard. I recently painted a few connecting rooms, including the kitchen, in a creamy white and love it. It’s light/airy, yet warm and feels so modern and fresh. Thought this link might help and suggest BM paint for ease of applying and durability. https://www.kylieminteriors.ca/the-best-cream-paint-colours-benjamin-moore/...See MoreWater damage in new construction.
Comments (4)Was your house inspected before the interior work proceeded? I have never heard of the interior being finished before siding. Our house had to pass a 'finished exterior inspection' before the electrical could be started. All siding materials (brick in our case), roofing, etc. had to be completed. Plumbing was allowed. Then our contractor waited through two rains to make sure there were no leaks before continuing with wiring, spray foam insulation, sheetrock, and then primer. Hardwood floors were put down after acclimating to the house and having the HVAC running for a couple of weeks. Trim work is ongoing at this time. We have one small section of metal roofing that has yet to be completed. It's located over a porch and was backordered....See MoreJake The Wonderdog
