ᐅ Damp or moisture in the wall caused by inadequate ventilation after screed installation

Dear building experts,

In my father’s new house, the walls are cracking as if they were tectonic plates.

He told me that 3-4 weeks passed between the screed installation and the first ventilation.

It seems to me that moisture has penetrated the beams of the prefabricated house, causing the building to now "move."

Can anyone advise me on how to deal with this? Or where the regulations are regarding how builders are required to ventilate?

Thank you very much for your advice.

There are general contractors or prefabricated house builders who include in the contract that the client is not allowed on the construction site during the work. In my opinion, anyone who signs such a contract is to blame themselves.

Unfortunately, the site manager no longer works for the company.

@Snowy36 Does paint fleece really need to be placed underneath everywhere? That adds up to quite a few meters on a single-family home.
Answering all questions would be the first step!

You go ahead then.

I already said everything about it when I explained that we actually don’t have one.

I wasn’t quoting you. You’re just stuck in the text.
