I bought a house and had a CL100 performed in Feb. The company that preformed the CL100 only mentioned one small area of wood rot & no mold. In March I had my contractor go under the house as I had some suspicion about a few week spots in the floor. He then notified me that there was a tremendous amount of wood rot, roughly 75% of seal plates and joists. I contacted the CL100 company and he said tough luck it’s past 90 days. What can I do? ...Read More

My GC was hired in SC to provide materials and labor to frame, install roof, siding, doors and windows on a very small, new construction home I am building. After semi-completing framing and roofing he filed bankruptcy. I had a total contract of $72,000 and had paid $47,000 so far, which covered his price quote for framing and roofing (including materials). I have now been served liens for ALL of the framing and roofing materials that were not paid. What is the likelihood they will try to enforce the lien? I provided the attorney for the suppliers proof of my contract and payments. Can I be made to pay TWICE for the materials? I live in South Carolina. TIA...Read More
