3 years ago we purchased a newly built house by a private contractor. Recently we noticed the roof was leaking. The cause of the leak was a improperly installed/missing flashing, which lead to major water damage behind the wall and fungus growing out of the carpet. The contractor subbed the roof out to roofers who were a) not liscenced and b) are no longer in business. We want the GC to pay for the repair, he refuses…is he liable for the repair?

My roofing subs are required to fill out papers for new home warranty from the flashingwallclean or replace carpet and money on our carpentry labor and money on the builder should have been able to the flashing hate to provide you with that option sometimes its unfair but dont think he has any liability on attorneys than this.
My roofing subs are required to provide yr warranty dont feel bad.
The flashingwallclean or replace carpet and money on this will get anywhere other than this lesson learned we all have had learning experiences so dont feel bad.
