Hello,
I entered to a new apartment and I discovered after 10 days that the bath drain was not installed correctly.
Therefore underneath the floor of all the rooms in my apartment I suffer from high moisture in the grained solid.
The fault is on the constructors responsibility, so he need to fix the apartment.
What he did to solve the problem is to open 14 floor pieces from granite porcelain and hope for the help of mother nature..
after 45 days he installed one machine that sucks the air beneath the floor so he will dry the moisture from the grained solid.In lab tests for moisture levels the result was 6.8%.
I consulted with a construction engineer which determine that the floor need to be replaced and not dried with vacuum machines.
The construction company deals with the problem in the cheaper way they can and they are not intend to replace the floor.
What should I do? do I have a case to sue in court?
Thanks for any help!!
