I bought an investment home in January. I understood that it was constructed in 2005 by Americas Number 1 Home Builder D R Horton. It has a 10 year structural warranty. All sounded good.
Now after some wind driven rain damage, the contractor discovered some disturbing facts about the construction. I had a second and a third opinion from other competent contractors. Even AS insurance said they will not pay due to faulty construction. You can see the state of the house at drhorton. Webs.com and I am quite frankly disgusted. I am now looking at over $10,000 in repairs, why? Because this D R Horton home was not built to stand the test of time and weather! In the same community, many more homes are also showing the same problems. The contractor told me tat the builder should have overlapped metal plates when the butted them together.
