Construction Defects

Johnson County Construction Litigation Lawyer

Owning your own home should be a dream come true. But all too often, a dream home turns into a nightmare due to faulty design, defective building materials, or shoddy construction. Even many of the big and expensive houses being built today are riddled with construction defects.

If your home is new or nearly new, it should not be falling apart. Under Kansas and Missouri construction law, builders who use poor workmanship or defective materials can be held accountable. Homeowners are protected under construction law from breach of contract and breach of warranty.

The legal professionals at the Olathe, Kansas, law offices of Longan & Associates have handled construction law cases involving:

  • Excessive cracking of basement and foundation
  • Leaky windows
  • Framing issues
  • Flooding
  • Drainage problems
  • Water penetration
  • Defective building materials
  • Roofing problems
  • Structural failure
  • Nuisance claims
  • Stigma damages
  • Failure to honor warrantees

Real Estate Litigation and Construction Contract Litigation Lawyer

Additional problems including mold, cracks on walls and ceilings, cracks on floors, and water seepage diminish the resale value of your home and can cost thousands of dollars to fix. Failing to take action promptly or waiting too long until your case falls beyond the statute of limitations can be costly too. Sometimes builders will agree to buy back a faulty property.
