[CLC-Discussion] Residential contractor warranty

Like Reese, I have been asked the same question numerous times.  It is always fun trying to prove something does NOT exist.  Have a great weekend all.

It's like syringe needles in payphones, kidney thieves, birds exploding from rice at weddings, Pop Rocks & Coke, Rod Stewart and...well, you know.  Pure urban legend.

Steve:  I've been asked this question probably 20-30 times and I have found no evidence that such a statute exists.

Subject: [CLC-Discussion] Residential contractor warranty

Hello folks,

                I have a relative who is a residential contractor.  He made reference to what he believed was a statutory requirement that residential builders provide a warranty of a minimum of one year to the owner.  Most of my practice involves commercial payment issues (i.e.

liens and surety bond claims).  I reviewed Fl. Stat. ch 558 but did not see such a requirement.

Is anyone aware of such a statute and, if so, could you provide a citation?

Thank you very much.
