Recent Review
“This review was a MUST for me. It was my first experience in any kind of court; I worked extensively with the Roger G. Jain & Associates staff on my case. They were more than kind and never left my side; walking me through the process step by step, providing exactly what I needed for each day. They were more than patient with me and extremely professional. [They have] a way of communicating which put my mind at ease, and relieved the stress I was under and helped me feel supported. Key points: they were persistent and timely, they kept their word, when they said they would get back with me they did exactly what they said every time. I highly recommend this firm to anyone.”
When Your Building Has a Problem
A construction defect is more than a minor annoyance. It is a flaw in design, materials, workmanship, or installation that affects the safety, function, or value of a property. Some defects appear immediately after construction is finished. Others remain hidden for months or years before they begin causing visible damage.
Common construction defect issues include:
- Roof and window leaks
- Water intrusion and moisture damage
- Foundation movement and cracking
- Structural instability
- Faulty electrical systems
- Plumbing defects and persistent leaks
- HVAC installation problems
- Defective materials
- Improper drainage around the property
These problems can interfere with your daily life, reduce the value of your property, and create ongoing repair costs that should not have been your responsibility in the first place.
Texas Law and Construction Defect Claims
Texas law provides a framework for many residential construction defect claims through the Residential Construction Liability Act in Chapter 27 of the Texas Property Code. Before filing suit in many residential construction defect matters, a homeowner generally must give the contractor written notice describing the defects at least 60 days before filing a lawsuit. Texas’s State Law Library likewise explains that this pre-suit notice is required before many such claims proceed.
That notice process is important. It can affect the timing of the case, the builder’s opportunity to inspect, and the legal options available moving forward. Because deadlines and procedural requirements can matter early, it is wise to get legal guidance as soon as you suspect a serious defect.
What to Do If You Discover a Defect
If you believe your property has a construction defect, early steps can make a major difference.
Document the problem carefully. Take photographs and videos, keep repair records, save contracts and warranties, and preserve emails or messages with the builder or contractor.
Consider getting an independent inspection or evaluation. A neutral professional may help identify the scope of the defect and how serious it is.
Avoid rushing into major corrective work before the issue is properly documented, unless emergency steps are necessary to prevent further damage. In many cases, the condition of the property itself becomes important evidence.
Most importantly, get legal advice early so you can better understand notice requirements, deadlines, and how to protect your claim.
