What is the name of your state? New Hampshire
We fired our building contractor because our 2nd floor addition that he built failed building code inspections twice.
My husband had to buy more building material and had to correct all the problems himself in order to be safe and pass inspection. He has put in hours and hours of manual labor that we paid this man to do in the first place.
I have pictures and video and notes in writing from the building inspectors on why the structure wouldn't pass. We've uncovered more problems downstairs now with where the first floor meets the second and they are not easy to fix.
My questions are these:
Can I make his insurance company aware of the problems we're facing and try to get compensation from them to correct the problems?
I know I can bring him to small claims, but it's well over $5000.00 that I am seeking reimbursement for.
What is the time limitations on something like this? It's been almost 2 years.
Would a lawyer suggest we have a strong case?
Thank you for you're time and any advice on which way to move forward.
