Hello, we moved into our newly built prefabricated house in May 2008.
In 2012, the step plates and window sills were replaced because they did not meet EU standards. During this work, parts of the plaster were removed and rotted wood was sanded down. Upstairs, there is a small, narrow balcony supported by joists that extend from the house. These joists are now completely rotted. The balcony is no longer usable. Is this considered a hidden defect, and is there anything that can still be done? According to an expert report, the sealing tapes were installed too far inward. The expert was able to tear off one joist by hand because it was so rotten. What can we do now?
Best regards,
Roswitha

But you know beforehand what you’re getting into, right?
A car also needs to go to the car wash or get serviced from time to time.
