Land Subsidence, Quality Of Workmanship And Materials Issues
After payment and collections issues, quality of workmanship, materials issues and land subsidence are some of the most common causes of construction and post-construction disputes. At Last, Faoro & Whitehorn A Professional Law Corporation, headquartered in San Mateo, California, we have developed a reputation for effectively representing contractors, subcontractors, suppliers and design professionals in workmanship, materials issues and land subsidence disputes.
What Type Of Issue Has Arisen Post-Construction?
We understand that California and San Francisco Bay area construction projects require close coordination between owners, contractors, subcontractors and suppliers. In addition to being profitable, the quality of workmanship and the quality of materials must be of a quality that the finished building will withstand the test of time. Our lawyers have significant experience handling the analysis, negotiation and dispute resolution related to:
- Construction defect litigation
- Material selection disputes
- Insurance coverage disputes regarding the defense of construction defect claims
- Quality of work claims against contractors, subcontractors, architects and engineers
- Indemnity claims
Our attorneys are knowledgeable in the standards of care for construction. In addition, they regularly work with a number of construction forensic firms to analyze the workmanship and materials problems and determine which contractor, subcontractor or supplier was responsible for substandard material or construction.
Is There A Subsidence Issue?
Since much of the land in the Bay Area is on unsettled ground, it is important for contractors and subcontractors to properly prepare building sites to prevent land subsistence issues that can cause structural problems to residential, commercial and public works buildings. We have successfully handled a number of land subsistence cases for owners and contractors.
