Construction Defects
Construction defects often arise from poor manufacturing, incorrect installation techniques, or the interaction between different types of materials. Our construction defect lawyer, Jim Kristof, has handled many cases representing construction companies and homeowners in matters related to construction defects. Because of his background in the construction industry, Attorney Kristof knows the terminology and standards used in the field, and has dealt with construction defects such as:
leaky valves
defective and leaky windows
deteriorating flashing causing water damage
weak building paper
inadequate waterproofing membranes
inferior drywall
Many of these defects lead to water entering the building, causing toxic mold. Jim Kristof has represented many homeowners and homeowners’ associations in claims against contractors related to highly damaging mold that results from moisture inside walls.
