Legal Question in Appeals and Writs in California

I and my wife purchased a home built in 2001 from a investment company, and had it inspected by a licensed professional and after we had lived in the home for 2 months we noticed a wetness under the carpet in the master bed room. When I pulled the carpet back I noticed that it was water leak coming from under the shower(Inspector did not see it due to the carpet), so we called a plumber and found out that it was a fault of the builder because he did not connect the glass and the shower pan correctly water was running between the two. I believe the investment company knowingly sold the home with this issue because the home was totally remodeled and my inspector said that he noticed that there had been repair below the shower in the kitchen ceiling, but he did not see any leak now. So even though it is past the 10yr warranty would the builder still be liable or would it be the responsibility of the seller to take care of it.
