Interior construction is faulty or executed in poor quality

Since all interior finishing works were carried out by the general contractor because ordered and paid for in this way, we do not have to take care of any on-site issues.

However, you might have had to, because anything not included in the scope of work will not be done.

From what I gathered, it is a prefabricated house.
Perhaps initially the wood was too wet, so that during the drying process the house shrank more than usual.
With us, the wood was also too wet when assembling the roof truss. This was recorded in the expert's report during the roof acceptance and resolved itself during construction. So everything was fine.
But you should have noticed that back then and not now, after 7 years.

I was never keen on confronting the manufacturer right away with heavy artillery like experts etc.

Having a building expert accompany the construction is not heavy artillery, but almost the standard. Those who are familiar with the subject or have someone knowledgeable by their side naturally do not need one. However, as a layperson it is always helpful to have someone at hand who can argue on equal footing and knows what matters.

Where is it please mentioned at the _beginning_ of roller shutters?

Somewhat awkwardly mentioned in the question field under the headline.
Wallpaper tears - cracks in the wall joints - door frames bend - silicone joints come loose - roller shutters are constantly defective - etc.

Where there's planing, there are shavings. Building a house, including prefabricated houses, is done by people. People make mistakes. Every day.

Very few have any idea how to properly carry out all the trades involved in building a house. Most basically don't. Regardless of that, you always have to follow up with the craftsmen during a house build :rolleyes:

Having construction supervision by an expert is almost always money well spent.

In our opinion, not enough time was allowed between the house assembly and the completion of the interior work

Actually, with a prefabricated timber-frame house made from prefabricated elements, the interior trades can start the next day (regardless of the season). What exactly should be waited for?

Especially since the problems are not only appearing now but are partially getting worse. And maybe Yvonne can explain to me how I am supposed to "hold" the house to minimize damage.

You really should get an expert on board now. It is possible that the foundation was constructed incorrectly.

Thank you for the information - the manufacturer will now take a closer look at the matter. After that, we will see. By the way, the construction description states: sach- und fachgerechte Ausführung nach dem neuesten Stand der Technik. I do not have to describe every item individually.

No, you don't have to describe every position individually. But a knowledgeable person on your side would be helpful to represent your interests.

That is not displayed to me with my medium.


I am not an expert, but I can advise you to consult one.

In _every_ new building, expert knowledge is useful if the builder does not have any.

I hope you find someone – apparently, the pattern of damage has not only developed last week.
You cannot turn back time, but you should now get moving – enough time has passed.

I thought I read something above about "hidden defects."
Those must also be identified within a period of time... but I am not a legal advisor!
What I do know: defects must be reported immediately.

Best regards in brief
