Hello everyone,

We are almost finished with our house, but recently when I was at a neighbor’s place, I noticed this:

White house facade with gray base, dark windows and garden fence in the foreground


That made me suspicious, so I checked again at night with a spotlight, and this is what I found:

Two acquaintances of mine who work for a painting company, and another who works for a drywall company, told me that we should have had this redone.

At the moment, I am still waiting for a statement from my builder.
A friend who has a similar issue and built with the same company was dismissed with: “It’s due to the exposed location and the strip lighting.”

Am I being too picky, or is this really poor workmanship?

Best regards & thanks

So again, to the pseudo lawyers:
- Is it a defect? -> Yes, a cosmetic defect
- Does the final inspection have anything to do with it? -> No
- Will my lawyer now take care of the matter? -> Definitely yes 😀

Maybe you could explain to us why a final inspection is not related to defects. The final inspection is the appropriate time to report defects.
