This outfit is a "BBB accredited member", and that's exactly why my
company abandoned its membership with bbb. We don't want to be
associated with crooks line kb. We are forced to share the planet with
them but that's as much as we are willing to tolerate!
We bought a brand new house build but these individuals in Englewood,
Co in 2000, and it's literally being desintegrated starting in 20001.
Every single neighbor had their driveway re-done more than once over
the first two years, and now - when warranty is up - they are facing
the same problem. Recently, we had a water leak on the second floor,
and I looked into the attic... A bunch of ventilation pipes sticking
from the ceiling and not even connected to the pipes going through the
roof.
In any case, kb is a definition of BAD BUSINESS PRACTICE.
Enjoy!

Venting into the attic is a code violation.
This is a lesson to all, and I learned it again even though my last
builder had a (supposedly) good reputation:
Get a home inspector, even for a new home!!!!!!
Their supervisors have a schedule to meet. If you hire an inspector,
he works for YOU!
No, I have no association with home inspectors. But last time, he
found broken roof trusses, improper attic insulation, and furnaces not
hooked up to the gas.

Gee, if the home lasted 18,001 years, don't you think you got your
money's worth?

Oh come on. All new homes have small problems. They are called
a "punch list". All homes need maintenance and upkeep. These are
small dollar items. If you cannot take care of it yourself, then
perhaps you are not "homeowner material", and should think about
getting a condo or renting an apartment where they take care of
things like this. Driveways do settle, and roofs do leak. Deal
with it rather than whining on the Internet.

Roofs leak? They certainly aren't supposed to (otherwise I agree).
Even a minuscule leak can cause a huge mess.
