Legal Question in Construction Law in Florida

A sub-contractor has done damage 2 our drive-way. With the promise of compensation after the construction was completed on our home, they would repair or compensate us for the damage. Neither has been done. We have sent a certified letter at the companies request, and after 4 months we have still not heard anything from them. What are our options. Is their a statue of limitations on this matter. Thank You for your time.

According to FL Statute 95.11 you have 4 years to file a claim. You can continue to try and contact the company. If that does not work for you, I would recommend you speak with a construction attorney to assist you. I presume you had a General Contractor on the project and ultimately they are the entity that is responsible for the damage caused by their subs. (This is in the case if you had a general contractor on the project that you contracted with and they hired the subcontractor).
