            Status:
            Answered
            I contracted with Marsh Fence & Deck in February 2023 to replace an existing deck at my home. I was verbally told upon first meeting that no building permit was required as I was replacing an existing deck. This is a false statement that their contractor's license requires them to know, thus all work was done without a required permit. Soon after deck completion, a substantial water leak to interior of home was discovered. Upon inspection it was found that Marsh violated building codes and industry standards by not install water-resistant barriers, flashing or caulking at deck to structure locations thus causing the current leak that will lead to future mold and dry rot issues at that site as well as several others around the structure. Further code violations were also noted for support beam structures at raised deck causing possible structural integrity issues. Marsh offered only to remove one deck board and apply some caulking. Marsh continues to refuse to actually correct the code violations though their contract specifically states that they guarantee their work to meet "industry standards" (building codes).Marsh Fence & Deck committed several departures from Acceptable Trade Standards and Building Codes resulting in significant health and safety concerns, violated Statutes pertaining to requisite Building Permits, committed contract fraud by attempting to change original contract wording pertaining to guarantee of workmanship and permit requirements and committed breach of contract by not performing work to Industry Standards as stated in their contract.I am seeking a remedy from Marsh Fence & Deck to pay to have their building deficiencies corrected, and the appropriate Building Permits obtained.
