Hi, I am the Plaintiff in a Construction Defect case that occurred almost 2 years ago, but is finally making its way through the court system now. My house sustained nearly $50,000 in damages from a roofing project in July 2019. One of my main concerns is there was no Contractor, subcontractor, foreman or anyone with specialized knowledge present the day of construction. Also, I never met nor spoke with the owner of the Roofing Company who holds the construction license. The company reps who bid and sold me the job were not licensed either and referred to themselves as the President and Vice President of the company. Would that not be considered renting out a construction license? Also wouldn’t the fact no one on the job site who knew what they were doing be grounds for negligence, non contractual negligence, or neither? Would it be a violation of the Licensing Board or law as well? That being asked, was my attorney correct in pursuing a claim for negligence arise out of construction defect or could that shut my claim right down due to the Economic Loss Doctrine if the damages were not to be considered “other property?” Most of the damages were almost all interrelated. Or does this doctrine now strictly apply to product liability and could they claim “my product” was defective and caused the damage? It was a structure the workers detached from the house that later collapsed.
