When defects surface in new construction, the path forward involves more than warranty calls and builder delays. We help homeowners understand their rights and pursue meaningful resolution.
The moment your home reached substantial completion, multiple legal clocks started running. Some you're aware of through your builder's warranty. Others are governed by Colorado law and never explained to homeowners. These timelines run simultaneously, and each creates a window that closes permanently if missed. We help you understand which deadlines apply and what actions protect your position.
New construction often carries an assumption of quality. But production timelines, subcontractor coordination, and Colorado's demanding climate can expose deficiencies that weren't apparent at closing. Recognizing what you're seeing is the first step toward protecting your investment.
Colorado's expansive soils create foundation challenges unique to our region, often emerging two to four years after construction. Cracks, doors that no longer close properly, and uneven surfaces may signal movement that worsens with seasonal moisture cycles.
Flashing errors, inadequate waterproofing, and envelope deficiencies often remain hidden until Colorado's freeze-thaw cycles expose them. By the time water stains appear, damage to framing and insulation may already be underway.
Many homeowners pursue warranty remedies first, unaware that builders sometimes use this process to run out legal deadlines or perform repairs that address symptoms rather than causes. Knowing when to escalate requires counsel familiar with both paths.
