[QUOTE="tRidiot, post: 1581785, member: 9374"] THIS. Paper trail, registered letters. In fact, I'd probably as my first order send a registered letter to the builder who is responsible for the warranty repairs requesting a formal evaluation of the foundation and need for foundation repair. I would simultaneously obtain 2-3 estimates and detailed evaluations by outside companies like RamJack, PowerLift, etc. Foundations are their business. This will give you ammunition for your second registered letter when your builder's official eval is that everything is fine. Once they start getting official documentation, then I think they'll pay more attention. Also contact the BBB and the State Attorney General's office to see if there have been other complaints against this builder. You need to cover your own rear, you can bet they're going to try to stall you till the warranty is out. And if you can document you've been after this during the warranty period, then they will still be liable, even if the warranty expires in the meantime. Good luck, and keep us informed! [/QUOTE]
