You may see dozens of billboards advertising lawyers who handle medical malpractice or car accident cases, but few address issues with your home. Yet, in states like Florida, construction is booming, with skylines and suburbs expanding rapidly.
Unfortunately, this rapid expansion often leads to poor workmanship, especially when contractors engage in unpermitted construction activities. These occur when contractors fail to obtain the necessary building permits or are unlicensed. In some cases, they don’t even have a contractor’s license or adequate workers’ compensation insurance to protect their workers.
These issues stem from a larger problem: prioritizing profit over people and buildings. As a result, contractors and construction companies may cut corners, leading to various construction defects.
