LAS VEGAS CONSTRUCTION DEFECT ATTORNEY

Construction came to a head in Las Vegas a few years ago in 2007 with a strong desire for builders to construct an excessive amount of low-cost mini-mansions. Many problems resulted from the cut corners and lack of attention to detail that took place during the housing boom, leading to a plethora of construction defects in the builders finished products. These defects actually affect a good amount of the homes that were built over the last decade, leaving many Las Vegas residents to bear the costs associated with bringing their homes up to reasonable standards. This is completely unacceptable.

A construction defect is any failure to construct a home or building in a reasonably workmanlike manner. Some of the most common construction defects include:

• - Improperly designed buildings
• - Improperly installed windows, doors, and roofs
• - Missing or improperly installed fire stops and shear walls
• - Defective foundation and concrete
• - Inadequate insulation
• - Defective electrical systems
• - Defective plumbing
• - Cracked stucco
• - Basically anything that affects the habitability or structural integrity of the home

These are just some of the many problems that homeowners can run into. In many cases these defects lead to bigger problems such as illness caused by mold, injuries caused by structural deviations, or in the worst case scenario death, from a fire, electrocution, or building collapse.

You might ask yourself "who is responsible for these damages?" I mean didn't most of the builders go out of business when the housing market collapsed. This is true to a certain extent. However, in most cases the developer, general contractor, subcontractors, architects, and other designers can all be placed on the hook for any damages resulting from a construction defect. It likely that at least one of these parties is still operating in some capacity or another. Also, in some cases where the materials are to blame, the material manufacturers can also face liability for your damages.
