Construction defect cases can be quite complex because many different companies are involved in a construction project. A claim against the contractor may result in the contractor filing a claim against a subcontractor or the provider of faulty materials. It can take time for issues to work their way through the courts. Under North Carolina law, a property owner has six (6) years to bring a claim against the builder. That is the statute of limitations.
Mr. DeVore has handled hundreds of construction defect cases from both the plaintiff and the defendant's side of the aisle. He has a sophisticated understanding of the issues that can lead to a construction defect and the factors that can affect liability. He has handled construction defect cases involving:
- Water problems and toxic mold due to roofing problems, defective roofing shingles or defective installation and faulty inspection of shingles, flashing failure, or blocked weep holes
- Window construction
- Engineering or architectural problems resulting in foundation failure, drainage problems, sagging floor joists, and cracked walls
- Building code violations for homes or retaining walls
- Ty-Vec wrap
- Problems with headers, footings, rafters and crawl spaces
