Hi,

I have a question  that i was hoping some in Texas could answer for me. My brother-in-law just purchased a new home from a large builder , not long after taking possesion of his home there was a flood from a water line in ceiling causing some damage, made worse by the fact that no one was home for a few days allowing the water to run free.  The home builder repaired all the damage and he is happy- my question ( or really his is) does the home builder have to disclose to him in writing all the repairs that they made as a result of the water damage ?

I know that when I work with our warranty board – in Ont. Canada we must disclose to the homeowner repairs made under warranty. I  have no idea if the state has a state run or regulated warranty board for new homes or what is normal. Any help would be great. And its not to give the builder a hard time ( I’ve been a carpentry contractor for 20 years and I’d kick his *** if he was to give his builder any grief I think he is just concerned that if he sells it may come back to him)

Thanks , I hope some can help
