Construction Company v. Homeowner: Roof Defect Warranty Liability

Construction Company v. Homeowner: Roof Defect Warranty Liability: A construction company appealed a lower court decision ordering it to pay damages to a homeowner because construction defects, specifically concerning the roof structure, led to water infiltration, arguing the defects were not covered by the ten-year warranty because the owner had failed to notify the company of the need for routine maintenance, but the appellate court upheld the lower court's decision, reasoning that the ten-year warranty, which covers structural integrity, was applicable to the inherent defects in the roof's design and execution, and the homeowner's alleged failure to perform non-mandatory maintenance did not negate the builder's liability for these fundamental construction faults.
