Legal Question in Construction Law in Illinois
Contractor messed up
Hi,
We recently had our kitchen and
bathroom remodeled by the same
company. The bathroom required
ripping out an old iron tub and
installing a shower. Everytime we
take a shower, water pools on the
floor just outside the bathroom.
The work was done 2.5 yrs ago. He
says he is no longer responsible. Is
this true?

Re: Contractor messed up
Breach of contract lawsuits in most jurisdictions can be filed up to 6 years fom the completion of the job. The usual test is whether you knew or should have known of the defect.
I cannot comment further since I don't know all of the facts of the case.
